"
As a result of developing for two platforms, however, Sakurai suggested there are limitations, including the dream of levels from Super Smash Bros Brawl (from the Wii) appearing in the latest Super Smash Bros game.
"If we did do that," said Sakurai, "stuff that was on Wii would have to be altered to be put on a 3DS. You’d have to make some tweaks. Whether or not you’d do that and still do those justice remains to be seen. We’re going to have to look at that."

How about having Melee or Smash 64 stages in the 3DS version and Brawl stages for the Wii U if Brawl stages can't be in the 3DS version?

Even though I'd personally would like to see stages from all three games making a return into these two games.

You always seem to have the most negative interpretations of these articles. Damn that stupid little 3DS for having limitations that may or may not affect the wii u at all given the current information we have!

Well for one the title to me implies that this will limit the wii u version, and in the 3DS version we have a different set of stages so it is feasible that they will only apply to the 3DS version's.

The article implies heavily that in order to preserve a difference between the versions, they are cheating some stages into production. Sakurai has already stated that there will be more stages based on hand-held games on the 3DS version, and more stages based on console games in the Wii U version.

Taking this into consideration, it is easier to import elements (models and etc.) from other 3DS games into the 3DS Smash because they already exist for that platform. Bumping them up to Wii U quality would require some work. On the other side of the coin, they can import elements from Wii/U games with comparatively minor work, like Sky Loft. Suppressing them to the 3DS quality while still preserving their artistic value would like be just as much work if not more than bringing a 3DS stage up to Wii U standards. Thus, without having seen the stage list, I believe shared stages will be the ones with few imported elements, that is, they had to build everything from scratch anyway, and the shared stages that draw heavily imported elements will be included late in development.

In no way does this article say that the Wii U version will be inferior because of the limitations of the 3DS. All he mentioned was past stages not looking as good, which really isn't a big deal at all. Maybe you should read and understand the article before posting a negative thread about it. This is like the 4th time I've seen this from you.

Weren't there Mario Kart Wii tracks in Mario Kart 7? They were visually downgraded, but they were still there. How is is any different?

You might as well take that a step further. We got an entire port of Donkey Kong Country Returns on the 3DS.

But oh well, they don't need to look exactly the same visually though. I wouldn't mind too much if the visuals were a little downgraded for the 3DS version. Or like I said, bring in the Melee and/or Smash 64 stages into the 3DS version instead if he wants to do it that way.

The 3DS already has different exclusive stages that won't appear on the wii u,
so who cares if it doesn't get stages from past games?

My interpretation of the quote is that stages that are from the Wii might be on the Wii U, but not the 3DS. We already know the two games will have different stages, so that lines up.

And Damn the WiiU for not being the Wii Boogaloo (sometimes referred to as the Electric Boogaloo, but some Nintendo fans find that to be redundant, because of course a gaming console would be electronic. Incidentally, they really need to look up the definition of redundant). The Wii Boogaloo will have way better specs than the WiiU yet here they go having to lower this game so they can put it on the WiiU. I just don't know what Nintendo is thinking trying to sell games. They should wait 100 years until better hardware is way cheaper and then make games, so that they don't have to hold back.

Oh look, another thread with people overreacting to 3DS "limitations" and their "effect" on the WiiU.

Since stages have been said to be system exclusive, I don't see why the 3ds version would limit anything

THIS! THIS! THIS!

Soviet, stop reading articles halfway and one sided and posting them as "news" to "worry" about. Besides most of your junk isn't worthy for its own thread and you make wrong and misleading info.

Stop

So, I have to deal with past stages looking slightly worse on 3DS than on Wii?



:facepalm: People, do not complain about this.

there nothing misleading about it, I read the entire article and it sounds like they could hold back stages.

Change the title to "Smash 3DS is apparently limited with stages, too."

Also, the SSE and the music took up most of the memory in Brawl.

Characters, meanwhile, did not actually take up too much room.

This portion of the article only suggests that Brawl stages may or may not appear in the 3DS. No where does it remotely suggest the Wii U will be limited. And even then, Sakurai is saying "if". It's not set into stone.

This is the second "3DS will limit the Wii U" thread that I've seen. Yet nothing you post actually leads to think that is the case. You are unable to interpret sources correctly and use then to strengthen an argument. As well, your title is misleading. You are stating that 3DS limiting stages is a fact.

All he is saying is that it's still on the table....which should be obvious honestly. Nothing is set in stone yet. It's still in development and the things they haven't done are unknown, obviously.

Wrong the stages is the only thing exclusive to these so far so wii u owners are going to get more stages due to a little more room for stages in that than the 3ds

Wii U isn't the juggernaut the Wii was. If the big, bad 3DS is to blame for the Wii U's Smash 4's "shortcomings", then be ready to blame Wii U for not selling enough and not being released the same year or after Sony's or Microsoft's console.

Basically, a LOT of stuff is still up in the air, and Sakurai doesn't want to give people false hope but instead is expressing concerns regarding certain ideas because he wants to be straight up. It's pretty simple, guys. =P
