I have been debating getting a 3DS ever since I sold my original early last year. More recently I've been getting an urge to play the Mario games again. My problem is that I don't know the new developments or the best games or to be released games coming out as I haven't been keeping up with that as much. So I need help deciding whether to buy a new 3DS XL or plump for the Wii U if it has better games or stick it out for the NX

Thanks

Honestly, wait for the NX. If it has backwards compatibility then there's no need to get a Wii U, and if it doesn't, the Wii U can only get cheaper from here. At least wait for an announcement before you spend your money.

tough question as both have a great library of games, more rpgs on the 3ds fwiw, so you cant really go wrong getting either system, it comes down to your preference of portability or tv play i guess.
but if youre patient and can wait maybe 8 to 10 months to see just what the nx is(my guess is portable console/home tv hybrid w cross platform play,nx: n=nintendo, x=cross) you may want to wait it out if you want to be fully informed

hope that helps in some way =D

i would get a Wii U it has super mario 3D world, super mario maker, new super mario bros u, and mario kart 8 all of these are awesome games and there's lots of classic mario games on virtual console too. also i play my Wii U way more than my 3DS but if your on the go often the 3DS is probably a Better choice for you.

The 3DS is here to stay for a while longer so if you were to get a 3DS, I would recommend getting a New 3DS model rather then a old, as for the Wii U it's hard to say as it's getting replaced pretty soon but still has some really good games on there!.
