"But you're telling me, Smash 4 is going to be "Lacking in quality" just because it's on a handheld?

Lol"

"Are you pressed yet, WiiU users?"

idk that looks a lot like provoking people to me. It doesn't appear to me as innocent and positive as you're making it out to be. Perhaps my responses have been harsh, but only to refute the lack of necessity of sending your message in poor taste, not necessarily the objective of the message itself.
This isn't even about the Wii U version
It's about people thinking the 3DS version will suck, just because it's on a handheld
Some have this image that the current handheld hasn't been upgraded since 2001 when we still had the gameboy color... But things aren't like the past. We've progressed in many things, including hendheld consoles.

What you quoted from me just wasn't meant to be taken seriously. I get that you didn't get that though- it's hard to see if someone is genuine, sarcastic or joking online.

Oho.

See now this makes more sense to me. Perhaps my deduction skills for reading people through text aren't amazing, but in this case I agree with your point. I don't think the 3DS version is inferior, really, moreso that the WiiU version fits my needs as a player better. The only valid problem with the 3DS version, so I've heard, is that the OG 3DS is too small to comfortably play the game. Other than that, it's still going to have it's own merits.

That is blatantly false. Nintendo uses older, cheaper, technology and pushes it to the limit. Gunpei Yokoi started this trend, and has been a thing ever since the gameboy.
Uh huh. That's why the NES was similar in power the the Master System, the SNES was similar in power to the Genesis, n64 was more powerful then the PS1, and the Gamecube was in between the Xbox and Ps2 in power.

Sure.
