Wii U, although 3DS is a close second.
I mean...

Mario Kart 8 > Mario Kart 7
SSBWiiU > SSB3DS
Super Mario 3D World > Super Mario 3D Land
Wind Waker HD > every Zelda on 3DS (for me, anyway)
DKC: TF > DKCR
Bayonetta 1/2 > any hack&slash on 3DS
Fatal Frame V > any horror game on 3DS
Splatoon > any shooter on 3DS
Pikmin 3 > there isn't really anything on the 3DS that matches this

The only areas that I think the 3DS is really superior are simulators (like Animal Crossing, Tomodachi Life and Story of Seasons) and JRPGs (Pokemon, Fire Emblem, Bravely Default, SMT, Etrian Odyssey, Persona, etc.) but since the Wii U is getting Xenoblade X and Illusory Revelations soon, I can live.

I agreed with all comparation, but Zelda Majora's Mask and Ocarina of time eat alive Wind Waker in my opinion. WW is amazing, but the other two are the Zelda peak imo.

oh come on, it's not 1 vs. 1 in terms of games and libraries, the 3DS has like a multitude more of games for each category/genre than the Wii U, and the majority of titles on the system are very solid

something like Smash Wii U > Smash 3DS is obvious, but Wind Waker HD over both Ocarina of Time remake (great reviews) and Majora's Mask remake and Link Between Worlds? come on......

Bayonetta 1/2 over Kid Icarus? (not completely same genre but still questionable)

Splatoon over 3DS shooters? its incomparable

also bizarre you compare Fatal Frame to 3DS horror games (Resident Evil Revelations) when the game hasn't been released in the most of the world yet anyway



Wii U for me, as I prefer that console's exclusives.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

That was just my opinion, lol. I'm not saying it's an objective fact...

Wii U, not only do I prefer the 1st party offerings but also 3rd party too. In its 1st year or so Wii U had some great multiplats like the Batman Arkham games, Assassins Creed, Deus Ex and Call of duty.

Deus Ex is fantastic. <3



If 3DS had my precious Golden Sun...



I'd go with the 3DS. I've spent way more time playing it. It's also probably my favourite handheld of all time.



Wii U because Super Mario 3D World, never in my life has a game made me smile and feel like a kid again like 3D World does, without a doubt my favorite game of all time.

Also because The Wonderful 101, Pikmin 3 and Wind Waker HD (best Zelda game IMO).
