Switch owners, did you have a Wii U/3DS?

you should swap, 3ds has considerably worse library, lets take an example, Mario 3d vs Mario 3d world, xenoblades vs xenoblades X, huge difference in graphics. Pikmin is the most dramatic difference, its really bad on the 3ds, a joke compared to the pikmin 3. Then lets compare Zeldas, ocarina of time is nowhere near wind waker, twilight princess and breath of the wild, not to mention I can also play ocarina of time on the wiiU. Then theres more marios, galaxy 1 and 2 etc.

For half the 3ds generation I only cared for monster hunter 4, but on wiiU monster hunter tri win it for me due to graphics.

Most games on 3ds from top 10 lists are a huge disappointment, pokemons is a terrible rpg where you just go around doing combat all the time and collecting pokemons, theres no story or exploration or puzzles or anything else. Fire emblem sounds great but its so boring, repetitive, nowhere near how fun advance wars was. Metroid samus is only a 2d game, and gets repetitive, I didn't bother finishing it, I much prefer Metroid prime trilogy on wiiU. Bravely default I got 10 hours in, got bored, repetitive 2d stuff, way worse than final fantasy in the 90's Nowhere something like Xenoblades X

Other games like Mario golf, Mario tennis and so on, are made far too easy, just look at the difficulty of pikmin 3 compared to pikmin on 3ds, totally different stuff. Animal crossing was too childish for me, I really tried, I liked the idea of a sims like game, but sims is more adult oriented so Id play sims instead or any of the several great strategy games on ps4.

Smash bros is also nowhere near other fighting games, for example why would Mario and link be in the same universe? Makes no sense to me.

Kirby is good but way way too easy for me.

Xenoblades on the 3ds, despite you needing the newer model of 3ds, it looked terrible compared to the same game on wiiU. And Xenoblade chronicles on wiiU didn't look close to xeboblades X either.

My biggest disappointment on 3ds was kid Icarus, many people were praising that, so I bought it, when I played it I could not for the life of me understand why people were praising it, it was worse than mediocre.

New super Mario bros was also way too easy on 3ds, took the fun out of it.

I really don't understand why Nintendo fans bought a 3ds instead of the wiiU. Its a gaming anomaly. Most 3ds games don't even make me use my brain to play. Just far too easy.

The problem is that it sucks that we had to play Xenoblade Chronicles X on the Wii U instead of the NX/Switch; once that game comes to the Switch. None of the other Wii U games you mentioned were even worth playing on that console, especially when you could play better versions on other consoles, since most of what you listed were ports.

It's kind of a strange argument that "Da gaffix is better on Wii U" considering it was the lowest end home console of its time. Not only that, but it was more slow and sluggish than the Wii in the previous generation.

The fact is the 3DS had the stronger lineup of games, portability, the better interface, and didn't exist in constant drought. While the 3DS is perhaps the weakest of the handhelds (Of the 4, it's either 3DS or GBA, and neither is a slouch - the GB and DS were monsters) it's still leagues above Wii U. The Wii U is one of the two systems in argument for Nintendo's worst major hardware release, alongside PS2 Junior/Gamecube.

Somehow I don't think you guys are reading my posts, if you want to comment I recommend reading first, no other games worth playing? Go back and read

Wind Waker HD

Twilight princess HD

ZombiU is better than on ps4

Wonderful 101

Pikmin 3

And more, many of those games are better than any game released so far on the switch. And all games that were ported to the switch cost 1 quarter of the price on the wiiU, so you get more value for your money on wiiU

3DS portability is not better than wiiU graphics, I'd rather sacrifice portability to have decent graphics, the ones on 3ds were only good for side scrollers, full 3d games looked horrendous on it and the second joystick was horrible, was not even a joystick.

I don't see that strong lineup games that you see on 3ds, I see a lot of overrated games on it such as pokemon or animal crossing.

You find strange that the graphics are better on wiiU? The 3ds had a 240p screen, yeah that's right, most games on wiiU were 720p or even 1080p which is 17x the resolution of 240p, yeah you read that right, seventeen times the pixel count. I wouldnt call that better graphics, I call it way way better, by far. Not even comparable.

240p should not have even been acceptable even back in 2011, the older psp had a much higher resolution, the Vita just destroyed the 3ds in graphics. Even the N64 which released in 1996 had better resolution than the 3DS.

I do love Nintendo and games in general but lets be honest here, 3DS only advantage was full portability and nothing else.
