Wii U or 3DS? I'm still undecided.

I'd still buy one for Streetpasses and travelling. Plenty of kids would still buy them to have a system all to their own since most families cannot afford more than one tablet (or even one). That's why it's important Nintendo focuses on affordability over features like 3D.

I think crossbuy would help here. If people got all their console games that the portable can handle automatically available on that system I think they'd see the benefit more easily since it wouldn't require building a second library. And I think they'd pick up more games too since they offer more when they can be adapted to the situation they are needed in, i.e. home play, commuting, etc.

Pushmo was great on the handheld (and because of the 3D actually is better there). Mega Man 6 isn't great on the 3DS I think in part to it's graphics. Other games are great. I'm not delegating the 3DS as a B-tier system except so far in these two situations. Animal Crossing New Leaf plays great on 3DS and I'm more than happy playing it there, but then again, it uses the whole screen and was built for it.

So let me be clear I never said, nor implied, that 'every game is better on system A'. Is that what others are implying?
