So i have a gaming pc that I love, so i have most 3rd party and strategy games covered. I have been wanting to get a nintendo system for the games I can't get on pc, but the question is which is the better system overall?

If you want a cheaper system that excels at RPGs and has a larger library: 3DS
If you want a system that offers the best exclusives from 2014 and a solid 2015 lineup: Wii U

Either one will not be a bad choice. It's hard to say which is best. I recommend looking up their respective top rated games and see which has more of what you like.

I don't like handhelds personally so id go with the wiiU. Smash bros on 3ds for example, doesn't compare to the wiiU version on a big screen. There's not much worth getting on 3ds that you cant get on wiiU, with the exception of the fire emblem games maybe.

If you can go without pokemon and games like fire emblem, animal crossing, bravely default..get a wii u.

I have both. I love my 3ds xl, but mario kart 7, and smash bros 3ds do not compare to the wii u versions.

I'd say the Wii U probably has the better games compared to the 3DS, but the 3DS has more of them.

if you didn't own a Wii ...Wii U it can also play Wii games. If you owned a Wii then New 3DSXL + AC adapter.
Wii U have Xenoblade Chronicles X ...New 3DS don't & only have the (Wii port) Xenoblade Chronicles. :P
