Forums - Nintendo Discussion - 3DS games you'd rather be on Wii U, and vice versa

Tagged games:

Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate for Wii U. Also, Tales Of the Abyss, Project X Zone, and pretty much almost every RPG.

3DS can have all the $2 indie games.

Kid Icarus would great for the better controls alone, but thinking about the graphical update that could be done and the online multiplayer, I don't know why Nintendo seems content to let such a great repackaging of a sort of bland franchise languish for just Smash bros appearances when it can do more good with a modest port or even side story game focusing on its battle mode.

I mean it sold over a million globally which is respectable for franchise reboot of a franchise only the hardcore old heads even knew existed and for all the complaints people had in relations to the controls.

Are there any titles on one system that you wish were for the other instead?

I'd say you should do a similar thread or Vita and PS3/4 but after I thought about it, there's like seven and a half Vita games actually exclusive for the Vita and one or all three of its exclusives might be ported to the PS4 eventually, so there's no reason.  

For 3DS to Wii U, I feel most of what's on handheld that isn't RPG would be better on console. 



Would have moved Kirby and the Rainbow Curse to the 3DS and Monster Hunter to the Wii U. That's it really.

I feel like Nintendo could've done what they did with Smash Bros and make a 3DS version of Mario Kart 8; however, one feature to add in would be the ability to play with both 3DS/Wii U players locally and online.

Why make a second version of MK8 for 3DS when MK7 still sells like crazy?

 

OT: I'm still surprised we haven't seen any announcement that Mario Maker isn't also on 3DS, so I'll say that as a Wii U-3DS game. 



You should check out my YouTube channel, The Golden Bolt!  I review all types of video games, both classic and modern, and I also give short flyover reviews of the free games each month on PlayStation Plus to tell you if they're worth downloading.  After all, the games may be free, but your time is valuable!

Super Mario 3D World and Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze would have been at home on 3DS. They're great on Wii U, but feel a bit underwhelming considering how awesome the 3DS titles were. Plus I just really love gaming on the go!



MH 4 should be on WiiU

Kirby should have been on 3DS



    R.I.P Mr Iwata :'(

I think mh4 is the obvious choice not only because of graphics/controls but its the only game I can think of that might actually boost wii u sales in Japan. I also would have loved luigis mansion dark moon in glorious hd!



Kid Icarus, and Luigi's Mansion.

Would love to see Pokemon Z on U, but we all know that's not happening.
