Which do you think was better, the first gen of 3D or HD (and why)

[firebush03]

Speaking from a Nintendo perspective: 3D and it’s not even close. Nintendo struggled hard to keep a steady output during the introduction of HD, whereas they soared with flying colors entering into 3D. Mario 64 v Mario 3D World, Zelda OoT v no Zelda (or you could say Zelda MM v Zelda BotW), Kirby Crystal Shards v Kirby and the Rainbow Curse, etc. MarioKart is really the only franchise I can see having done better during Nintendo’s first generation of each gameplay style.
