Smash on 3DS probably won't hurt Wii U that bad. It's coming out earlier and I think we can all say more hardcore fans are on Wii U than 3DS. I honestly wouldn't be suprised if Smash was highest selling Wii U game once it's all said and done.



XBOX ONE/Wii U/3DS/PC

RIP Iwata 12/6/1959-7/11/2015

Thanks for all the great memories!

I thought it was because PS4 and Xbone were trouncing it.

You can't get Nintendo games on a PS4/XB1.

And that's why I don't have one of those.



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile

I do believe Smash WiiU sales are going to be affected by the 3DS version........ in Japan at least!

Eh, SSB for. 3DS will hurt Wii U a lot. I don't understand this move.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

Nahh! I'm sure they bro's!

Actually, you might be right. It's just like PS4 being Vitas worst enemy.

3DS has already peaked, but Nintendo doesn't want to let it go, even at the cost of the system that actually needs all the support it can get.

In that chart I posted of 3DS vs Wii U sales, the ONLY time the Wii U outsold the 3DS was in the past year and a half is May 2014, most likely because of Mario Kart 8.

I guess Ninty didn't think in 2011 that the WiiU would end up selling so poorly...

No, PS3 is tied with the 3DS for Vita's worst enemy.

PS3 on the games front, 3Ds on the price front.

Not to mention, Vita was first, PS4 released first in a market where Vita was already doing bad (US and Europe) , and gave it 2 extra months in a market where the Vita was doing good (Japan)

Good to know I am not alone about this.
