Releasing the 3DS version 6 months ahead of the Wii U version is a huge mistake. It's going to be a nail in Wii U's coffin. Nintendo will lose a large portion of Wii U buyers to the 3DS.

    Tbh, they can do what they want and not be harmed. Even if they ran a deficit of 250 mil each year they'd survive until 2050

  • its not gonna help, but i don't think it will be a coffin nail. i hope not anyway.

  • I think having a 3DS version at all was a bit of a mistake. I think only having a Wii U version would have sold more Wii U's.

  • Wrong. They will have incentives to buy both. Transfer fighter profiles, more modes, better graphics. Think of monster hunter 3, you could own both and take your game with you

    Yeahs0
  • It will build hype, Smash is not a game you get tired of playing in 6 months. 3ds is a teaser, wii u will be the real thing. Get the people who own a 3ds to get it, then hook them in to buying a wii u

    Yeahs0
  • And it gives people time to save up to buy wii u, or get it gifted. They need the holiday sales boost

    Yeahs0
  • If they can show that Wii U has anything more than a graphics boost, then it might be worth it. So far, the 3DS even has more modes. Graphics and some different stages aren't enough.

  • While Nintendo can financially afford a failed console or 3, they aren't doing Wii U any favors right now. They seem to be putting more effort into 3DS when it doesn't need it.

    Yeahs0
  • While I plan on getting both versions, I feel like I'm going to be in the minority. People aren't going to want to pay another $60 for the same game they bought 6 months ago.

    Yeahs0
  • gru is right, 3DS version is a teaser, Wii U is the real prize.

    Yeahs0
  • They announced the new mode in 3ds because is at most 4 or 5 months away. wii u is 7-9 months off, with more development to do. we might see something at e3, but i bet we'll learn even more after too.

    Yeahs0
  • cross platform profile transfers seemlessly, like MH3 ultimate for wiiU/3ds plus other connectivity features. (probably not cross playform play, maybe a special spotpass type swap of player stats)

    Yeahs0
  • That's what I am hoping for, but where they leave it right now is in a bad place. They could just as easily said 'more to come on Wii U exclusive content at E3' to show that Wii U isn't left out.
