The next installment of Super Smash Bros. is coming for both the 3DS and the Wii U in late 2014.  No doubt this game will be a big seller, but the question is, which of the two versions will sell more throughout its life?

The 3DS has the advantage of the much larger install base.

The Wii U has the advantage of Smash always having been a home console game.  Many players will want to experience this on the big screen, and in HD.  Also, it seems that the Wii U version will provide a better experience for the game.

So what do you think will sell more?  Also, please include your expected numbers for each version and a total.  Keep in mind this is lifetime.

I think:

3DS: 7M-11M

Wii U: 8M-13M*

Total: 15M-24M

*Wii U sales depend on bundles.

Keep in mind many people will buy both versions.

3ds will sell more and wii u will get a boost.

I'm thinking something more like;

WiiU version 5-7m
3ds version 2-2.5m

3DS 1 million, Wii U 400k

really? ¬¬

Wii U > 5mil
3DS > 1.5~2mil

3DS 400k, Wii U 1 million - better? :D

I said lifetime, not first week.

3 or 4 Million on 3DS
4 or 5 Million on Wii U

Wii U: 5-6 million
3DS: 3-4 million
