Smash Lord
I got BOTH. One for portability (Who doesn't like nice fried Smash to-go?") and one for better gameplay + HD quality (my 3DS is the smaller older model). I LOVED the Ice Climbers and I'm also mad they got cut--I miss every cut veteran (except for Young Link) ever made in Smash. But I think I love the 3DS version enough to merit the cutting of the Ice Climbers--and if you want to dive deep into what the 3DS did to the Wii U version, the removal of transformations is really great, creating a fresh feel for the characters separated--although, one could say Squirtle and Ivysaur were cut cause of this...you know what? I CHANGE MY MIND. Lol just kidding--but seriously, to each their own.Still, plenty of people tend to get one version over the other, and I know many that opted to choose 3DS over Wii U.
I think Smash was in a weird position--Smash is usually a console-based game, but effort wanted to be put into a 3DS version because more people probably have a 3DS than a Wii U. Of course, they didn't want to deliberately ignore the WIi U version so they made the two versions side-by-side.
I just love how our veteran contenders are all under different circumstances regarding their DLC potential
Wolf - Because---because--because---because Sakurai
Snake - because of Konami issues, we have yet to see him release. Though, me thinks he's more neutral than everybody seems to think--with Wolf being a positive. Me thinks Sakurai actually REALLY wants him back but is trying convince Konami--strangely he hasn't been shot down
Ice Climbers -- because 3DS limitations--other than that, it seems their data is finished (unless 8 player smash factors in--then--boy, we got a long talk.
Ivysaur - Why he should be in--Because the Bulbasaur family has been sh*tted on being last choice--WELL THAT'S ENOUGH. IT'S TIME FOR IVYSAUR TO KICK GRENINJA AND CHARIZARD'S A** WITH IT'S LITTLE VINEWHIP AND LEAFS THAT NOBODY ELSE HAS. PLUS HE WALKS ON FOUR F***KING LEGS--also, we need more Grass types.
Pichu -- PICHU PEEECHUUUUUU gonna cause a massive riot for this, but I can totally see them considering Pichu as a last Veteran bow-out from Sakurai
Squirtle - One could say Greninja is the spiritual successor--one could also say "you thinks he is the spiritual successor"
Young Link - because I said no.
