Can do. 

 

I was only going to get the Wii U version but I don't know if I can wait that long when I can just grab the 3DS version. So yeah, put me down for both as well, most likely. I might be in Japan by the time they come out which could change things.

I'll get the Wii u version for sure. i'm still thinking about the 3DS version

[tboss]

wiiU, i will be back home to give the 3DS some goes though.

Getting both on day one. Kinda wish the Wii U version came out first, was looking forward to that one more. Also since it's releasing on Wii U later, that's probably gonna negatively affect sales.

I think I will for sure get the 3DS version IF it comes in a 3DS XL bundle that looks awesome. I've been thinking that I'd like a limited edition 3DS for a while, but I already have the games that were bundled with all the systems I like the looks of.

Aug 26 or 28th

That's just my gut.

But I'll get it in the wii u. It's jot really a handheld type of game for me.

At first I thought they were releasing the same game at the same time. But now it seems like they both are slightly different and are being released at different times. I'm buying both

[Abcdude]

I've pre ordered them both.

I agree, Nintendo are being stupid releasing the 3DS version first. Once people play it on 3DS they may say to themselves "what's the point in buying two of the same game?". 

 

I'll be buying the Wii U version (maybe). Pretty disappointed that it isn't out until winter though, looks like there's another game drought incoming.

Get it right.

 

This is also relevant to Smash Bros.

I'll copy paste what I said in the Smash direct thread:

 "wasn't too sure about staggered release, but someone on reddit convinced me it;s a good idea. Look at the thread asking what console you're getting smash for and you'll see the most common answer is both, and quite a few people saying before they were only going to get Wii U, but now they'll get 3DS too. This decision shouldn't really effect Wii U sales negatively because how many people who were actually only thinking of buying Wii U are going to suddenly witch to 3DS, the ever so slightly inferior version, just so they can play it early? Especially since the two are very different experiences.

Also, a lot of people will be wanting more content by winter, and hopefully many more will be so in love with the 3DS version they'll just have to have the Wii U version as well.

Ten there's also the fact people are more likely to buy a Wii U smash combo around the holidays because it's more expensive. If they had come out to together, a larger number may have switched over to the cheaper smash 3DS combo, which would hurt WIi U sales. I definitely think this could end up working out better for Nintendo."

I'll probably get both

[Portal]

Both, maybe even separate 3DS copies for me and my brother. Summer's pretty great. Hoping it comes out in August 'cus birthday month.

[TheUltimateWaddleDee]

I just realized that the L button on my 3DS is broken, so this is actually going to be a mess for me. I sent it in once already, and I don't want to have to do it again.

[Happy Monk]

I'll be getting both, although I was kinda hoping for the Wii U version first, as that (to me) seems like the real deal.

[MorbidGod]

Now that the 3DS version been confirmed for the Summer, has it influenced your decision?

I'll probably get both & the Wii U version might have an extra character.

I'm getting both. I'm buying a 3DS and a 2DS for my kids. And I'll probably get two games for SSB3DS.
