Topic: wii u or new 3ds?

I have always planned on buying a wii u due to recent releases and upcoming titles like splatoon and zeldaU however after watching the recent Nintendo direct and witnessing the new 3ds I am unsure whether to stick to buying a wii u or just go for a new 3ds. I have enough money for either and allready have a 3ds however just looking at the limited edition majoras mask console makes me completely forget about getting a wii u. Do you guys think I should just buy the wii u or is the new 3ds that much of an upgrade that I should buy one straight away?

Both are great, and they both keep getting better. It really comes down to how you want to play. Do you want to take games with you on the go? Do you want to play games on your tv? How important are RPG's to you?

I would get the Wii U. It is not as if it is going to be that much better having the new 3DS compared to a new system.

I do enjoy the ability to play games on the go however this isn't a major problem as I would mainly be playing in the evenings at home anyway (due to school etc).

I do enjoy rpgs and I am really exited for the new fire emblem recently announced however I should have a new 3ds by then as there is no telling when that game will be released. Tbh I just like the idea of owning a majoras mask 3ds as it's my #2 favorite zelda game.

I would recommend the Wii U since you already have a 3ds. You'll have more of a variety of games to play on 2 different systems compared to 2 similar handhelds. Minus 1 game coming out soon, anything the New 3ds can play, the other 3ds and 2ds can play too.

But if your able to find a place that still doing pre-order for the Majora's Mask 3ds and you really want it, go for it. The Wii U will always be around to buy but a LE is around for a limited time in limited quantities at msrp.

At the moment we are unaware of how many games will be exclusive to the New 3DS. The safe decision is to buy a Wii U instead of just upgrading your old console.

My SD Card with the game on it is just as physical as your cartridge with the game on it.
I love Nintendo, that's why I criticize them so harshly.

I'd get a Wii U. TBH, if these are your choices, there's no point in a New 3DS.

So Wii U

I will update this when Half Life 3 arrives. [Started 17/11/2015]

You should definitely buy a Wii U first! It already has amazing games in HD, including SM3DW, MK8, SSB4WiiU, Bayonetta, Bayonetta 2, Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker + many more. Also, the eShop has plenty of games too! Since you already have a 3DS, you can still play the 3DS' amazing games but if you don't have a Wii U you can't play the Wii U's games (obviously).

Get Wii U now, upgrade to the N3DS when the new Fire Emblem is released.

Why? Your current 3DS will play Majoras, the Wii U has different games in HD, and the last Fire Emblem was released concurrently with a special edition 3DS, therefore chances are there will be a new special edition n3DS with the new Fire Emblem.

Get the Wii u, has games you can't play now, and will have its best lineup of games this year.

Wii U hands down, at the moment! I don't think I'll even consider getting the New 3DS.

Wii U. No contest.
Upgrade to the N3DS later on.
