Topic: Tekken 3D, SSFIV 3D, or both?

I have SSFIV 3D on a hold for me at GameStop, and I'll be heading there to pick up Tales of the Abyss tomorrow. After reading the reviews for both Tekken and SSFIV, I think I made the right decision, but I'm still unsure. The Arcade mode on Tekken is enough to appeal to me, and I've been considering swapping my SSFIV hold for that. But my friends all have told me to my face I'm stupid if I pick Tekken, and everyone I ask seems to be firmly in the belief that SSFIV is the best fighter on the 3DS.

I hate feeling so torn, and this shouldn't be a decision I'm having issues with, but here I am. Any and all help would be fantastic.

There is no arcade mode in Tekken 3D. There's no story Mode, either. Get Street Fighter is you want any kind of singleplayer mode.

There is kind of an arcade mode, that 10 battle mode.

You could always just get Tekken later on sale. I paid full price for SF and last I saw it was like $8.
I'd suggest canceling your GameStop purchase and get it on Amazon then wait for a sale on Tekken, sooo...both.
