Super Smash Bros: The Difference Between Wii U & 3DS Versions

Super Smash Bros has been announced as coming to both the Wii U and the 3DS, but surely there must be some differences between the two versions?

Adam Barnes from NowGamer spoke to Masahiro Sakurai about Super Smash Bros on Wii U and 3DS, and how the two versions might compare.

I want the 3DS version since it'll be cheaper and I can take it anywhere!

[PopRocks359]

Perfectly reasonable, but you won't be able to use controllers, it's not HD and it probably won't be online (assuming they choose to pull a Monster Hunter).

why wouldnt it be online?? 3DS has online games doesnt it? That would be very stupid if they dont include that.. Well, mario 3d land doesnt have it either on wii u so i wouldnt be surprised.. I dont understand what theyre thinking sometimes.. I hope the character roster isnt held back by the 3DS' limitations.. Brawl had a lot of characters & itd be a shame if the wii u doesnt top that

Anyway, ill be going with the wii u version (if i get it).. Only games i want for wii u so far are X & Bayo 2..

Buy both versions why only 1 version ??? wiiu version will have a proper slick online mode.

And a lack of characters due to the 3DS holding it back. This is making me fear for my characters. They already took Mewtwo from me.

the Wii U sold poorly until now, so it`s obvious a lot of gamers are getting on 3DS, it`s the more popular system right now. that`s the version I`m getting it too, since I didn`t pick up a Wii U yet.

I'll be getting both. But I'll be kidding the 3DS version 1st.
