So right now Shovel Knight is on sale on the eShop.  It is 33% off.  It usually costs $15, and is on sale for $10.  This deal ends on January 8.  It costs the same on both the Wii U and 3DS.  Since I have both systems, I was wondering, which version should I get?  Is there a difference?  Which feels better?  Does the Wii U version support the best controller ever made, the Pro Controller?

 

Edit:  Thanks to Jizz, I now know that the Wii U version does support the best controller ever made, the Pro Controller!

I say get the wiiU or PC version cause those support the best controllers and in a game like this, the controller is one of the biggest things that will affect ur overall experience!

Although I played it on PC, it seems right at home on 3DS or Vita. You should definitely play it there. BTW The game is a blast!

i like that site. It doesn't speak of the DS3 as a piece of shit like most people falsely do.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Feels natural on Nintendo platforms as it continues its legacy...

If you want it as a handheld game on the go or on a big tv and recline in style.

Im gonna grab in on Wii U myself.

It'd depend if you want to play this game on the go or do you prefer to play it on the big screen.

I hope that the PSN version will be cross-buy / cross-save to avoid that decision ;)



get the wiiU version



Flip a coin, or wait for the epic OUYA version :P



Wii U if you want to support indies on the platform.
3DS XL if you want better looking pixels.
