Am I better off getting this for 3DS or Wii U? It seems like this would be good for portable given the nature of the game to be played in short spurts, but I hear rumors and talk of the game being scaled back for 3DS graphically and levels-wise. However I heard the omitted levels aren't that popular.

Still, I wonder if it's best suited for handheld despite the omissions. I guess another issue is control, if it is an issue. Does one control better than the other?

I initially bought volume 2 for the Wii U and never really played it after the first day. It is definitely better suited for the 3DS and I find myself playing it a lot for a few minutes here and there.

Some games have been omitted from the 3DS version, but that is a good thing since it is mostly the games that really sucked to play.

When I eventually get it, I'll get it for WiiU. I like the idea of playing those games on the gamepad.

So I ended up getting it for 3DS. Thanks for all the input. I thought it through and thought that this is the type of game to play in spurts before going to bed or wherever else I play in spurts. lol

  • Clu Clu Land
  • Donkey Kong
  • Donkey Kong Jr.
  • Donkey Kong 3
  • Excitebike
  • Golf
  • Ice Climber
  • Mario Bros.
  • Pinball

  • Punch-Out!!
  • Super Mario Bros. 2JP
  • Super Mario Bros. 2US
  • Super Mario Bros. 3

but if you look at ultimate remix on 3DS you get

  • Balloon Fight
  • Donkey Kong
  • Donkey Kong Jr.
  • Dr. Mario
  • Excitebike
  • Kid Icarus
  • Kirby's Adventure
  • Mario Bros.
  • Metroid

imo...it has all the best ones from Remix 2.....making remix2 irrelevant...

however its missing 4 games i would have liked from remix1...

i would have liked ice climbers, baseball, golf, and mario bros.
