To be fair, emulating games (and their respective Systems + OS) accurately does take quite a lot of power compared to a straight port made for that console (even if it's a demanding game like Hyrule Warriors). Not that Super Nintendo games would be much of a challenge for 3DS hardware, but the system could struggle with DS games for example if it wasn't backwards compatible and didn't have the DS-CPU built in just for that.
@@RueLangston The problem with GBA on 3ds is that it runs natively. Which while it's good for performance and compatibility, doesn't allow for features like suspend, restore points (save states), and extra goodies that most VC titles have. Though there is a software emulator for GBA that's unused likely due to awful, sluggish performace.
In reality - there was a lot of folks who had a 3DS but did not a Wii U. Everyone knows that, and I'm a worthless bastard for saying this though, and will probably be humiliated by somebody below me for even uttering this.
As a WiiU and a 3DS owner, the 3DS kinda felt like a weird twisted portable WiiU. Tons of games that are similar to WiiU games or just straight up ported games. Just kinda makes the WiiU feel less like a joke, and more like a clown
To be fair I always favored my 3DS over my Wii U and had far more games for the former than the latter, so to take the few good games the Wii U had and put them on the system I was more fond of was a win win for me.
Tbf, they were going to do cross buying on wiiu and 3ds, where when you buy a game on the wiiu, then you'll be able to download them for free on 3ds, like they did with minis March again wiiu (to which you'd receive a free copy for the 3ds).
@@weirdtuberjournalism9757 it was tipping stars, not minis march again. and that was a one time thing, they had no intentions of making cross buy the norm. if they did intend to do cross buy a regular thing, they would’ve done it with the virtual console, which they were vehemently against.
Hopefully now this means we can get a “DS Games on Wii” episode. No idea how many of those there even are, but anything to get Scott to talk about the Phoenix Wright Trilogy on Wii
The Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney Trilogy (apart from Rise from the Ashes) are technically GBA games and the actual DS entries like Apollo Justice didn't release on Wii for some reason, but yeah I would love for him to talk about Ace Attorney. Apparently those ports are very much overlooked and Scott seems to like Ace Attorney but somehow hasn't talked much about the games at all (as opposed to countless Nintendo games he brought up numerous times).
Yeah 3DS was my primary gaming tool during this time, so I enjoyed the hell out of the likes of Mario Maker, Hyrule Warriors and Smash Bros no matter how compromised they were on the handheld.
Scott doesn't know the torture of only having a 3DS to play Hyrule Warriors... And by torture, I actually mean pure joy because Hyrule Warriors actually plays great for the system. I say that 100% unironically
@@alex_-yz9toIronically Digital Foundry tested the New 3DS version and found that it had a more stable framerate than the Wii U version (30fps to like 22fps). On an Old 3DS it was rough but on a New 3DS you were fine.
Agreed, was great for the time and I enjoyed the hell out of it, That said, yeah, no reason to go back to it now especially with the definitive edition on Switch.
@@GhabulousGhotiOn a N3DS you could also take advantage of the extra controls - like ZL to lock the camera to a target (instead of D-pad Up) and the C-stick for rotating the camera.
Never forget the Skylanders games on 3DS which were their own unique platformer fighters like Crash/Spyro. Very underrated and a cool little side adventure to the console versions.

Here's a weird one that technically doesnt count: around 2013(?) Hideki Kamiya said that he wanted to make a Bayonetta spin off on 3DS starring Jeanne. Obviously it never came to fruition, but in Bayo 3 there's those weird Jeanne missions that seem exactly like what he envisioned
Exactly! One of the reasons the 3DS way my favorite handheld and second most favorite console! I really liked the games in that era and 3D Land was like a portable 3D World and Sticker Star was like a portable Color Splash! (Ik the Wii U ones came later, but both coexisted during more or less the same time) And then it was getting straight up Wii U ports! (And of course I also loved its own games, not just the ones similar to Wii U ones or direct ports). (Yes Wii U was my favorite console back then, if it wasn't already clear)
Quick shoutout to Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn. The 2019 3ds port of a 2010 Wii game that has tons of new content for some reason and is the definitive version released on a system when its successor was already 2 years old.
@@aturchomicz821 And they also removed the co-op, so it's hard to call it the "definitive version". Scott had a video on this channel of Wii games on 3DS where he talked about it (he wasn't a big fan).
I think they excluded the Mystery Mushroom from Mario Maker for 3DS because it includes third-party characters (Shaun the Sheep is the one I remember the most vividly) and they'd have to re-obtain the licensing for all of them if they wanted to include the feature in a port of the game
Shovel Knight is great on 3DS. Yacht Club gave it a deep discount before the eshop closed and I got it for under $5, which includes all 4 campaigns. It lacks Showdown, but the 3D layering of sprites and backgrounds is beautiful to look at.
Whenever I look back on the Wii U era I’m reminded just how little I actually played it in comparison to the 3DS, which is surprising because I was deep in denial over the Wii U’s place in the market. Makes me wish I swallowed my pride and gave the PS4 a shot sooner.
To this day, I still feel like they should have ported _Star Fox Zero_ to the 3DS. The wonky control scheme could've easily been solved entirely through the 3DS' features. The top screen could be the standard third-person view for the ship while the bottom screen would emulate the first-person view from the Wii-U gamepad, and if you wanted to keep the motion controls intact aiming could be handled through the 3DS' gyro controls. It was honestly a missed opportunity and it's unfortunate that Zero has been left to languish on the Wii-U for almost a decade now.
Captain Toad is no joke, genuinely one of the most graphically and technically impressive 3DS games I've ever come across. Just "one of" that is. Because I think the "graphically" and "technically" most impressive titles on the 3DS still belongs to the slew of Capcom games on the tiny system. Kid Icarus Uprising also still looks pretty damn impressive _but Nintendo apparently has dementia about this game ever existing._
Thats such a great point about the back-of-box explanation of the ports from other consoles. I remember as a kid, I always thought Mario 64 DS was so cool, but I had no idea why it was called "64." I just thought it was an awesome 3D game where you could actually play as multiple characters. Had no idea it was a remake
Really thought there would of been a section about Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate being on both Wii U and 3DS and having the ability to play between both systems. I always thought the Monster Hunter games had really cool functionality on nintendos systems though in all reality Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate is actually a 3DS game on the WIIU.
Poochy and yoshis wooly world is an incredible game for kids. I had the wii u game and got a young family member the 3ds game. They loved every single feature, that i didn't even know that version had! Crafting custom yoshis, letting them use my amiibo for the costumes, playing the poochy levels, and watching the yarn yoshi skits that were included. It kept them entertained for months and me too a bit when they asked for a little help. Absolutely the definitive version for kids, for adults, the extras obviously wont do much for you but it does give you portability, so its just preference at that point
I know this is a different thing, but I would also like too mention 3DS that should get Switch ports. Many fans think it would be sad if some of the best 3DS games would just die and be forgotten with the 3DS. Some games that fans really want include: A Link between worlds, Kid Icarus Uprising, the 3D remakes of the Zelda N64 games, and many more. This could also make for interesting video in the future.
I'm sad they put the port of Woolly World on 3DS instead of Switch. Poochy and Yoshi's Wooly World could have helped the Switch's launch lineup which really had no standouts besides Zelda. Unless they make another port you have to choose between graphics and content.
@@TaxeAndStuffwould've been cool if there was a minigame type of thing though, not a real port but a game based around it that takes less power. Would've worked well considering all the badges and themes they had for it.
Late response, but, interestingly, there was an April Fools joke from Nintendo Life, I believe, where they made a "leaked" image of the game in question's 3DS port, which had a cel-shaded effect, giving an idea of how it could have looked on the 3DS if said port was real.
I didn't own a Wii U so I got the 3DS Hyrule Warriors and had a good ass time? But I noticed on a regular 3DS it physically couldn't load enough enemies, which was a HUGE problem for missions where you had to kill 1,000 enemies in a time limit or whatever. And sometimes it would spawn them all in a straight line. On a New 3DS it's powerful enough to handle more stuff on screen and fixed most of the issues. It also held my attention for a long time until the Switch Definitive Edition came out and made it completely obsolete lol
When talking about the tangential games to the subject, I expected Scott to talk about Rodea the Sky Soldier, since that was a 3DS game ported to Wii U, but I suppose that’s the opposite of what this video’s about lol
I know these types of ports often comes out bad, but I used to love when they tried to put big console games onto handhelds. It was just weird and fun lol.
I remember trying to use Mario Maker for 3DS to try and help clear uncleared levels before the Wii U and 3DS servers shut down kinda knowing full well that course mode would be an uphill battle. (because I don't have a Wii U) I joined the Team 0% discord server only to be immediately be told that clearing a level on 3DS doesn't translate to a clear on Wii U I left wishing telling the dude who broke the news to me that I'd be cheering from afar
Great video. I have an only ever experienced Mario Maker 1 with the 3ds version so I have a bias for it. One example you forgot was Mario VS. Donkey Kong Tipping Stars. The interesting thing about that one was that it had cross buy between the two versions
In the Doctor Who episode "Dalek", a thing that cannot feel happiness is given emotion through a DNA transfer. When it touches the sunlight for the first time ever, it declares "this is not life", and ends itself. This also is what the 3DS did after being made to run hyrule warriors.
NES Remix Pack is exactly what Nintendo did with Wii Sports + Wii Sports Resort (a bundle that that included a menu that would lets you launch into either of the games on the disk).
The Hyrule Warriors Legends section was frustrating because you kept saying the port didn't work, but you didn't explain 'why'. Was it the framerate? Was it laggy? Is it hard to see?
These Stash channels have a great format. The full reviews with cutaways and every prop you could ever need are fantastic, but these don't feel like the "lesser" version.
mario maker 3ds likely didn't include the amiibo costumes because all of the voice/sound clips for all the characters would take a massive toll on the small capacity of the cartridge still my least favorite 3ds game though
Honestly looking back, I'm surprised SMM didn't begin life as a DSiWare title or something. Like a more scaled down version that just had SMB1 graphics. If it still online sharing it would've huge. Not sure Nintendo waited until Wii U.
Wasn't Scott's complaint about NES Remix 2 was that it featured too many heavy hitter titles, and that the original was better for featuring more obscure games
Kirby’s Epic Yarn which was originally a Wii game actually was better on the 3DS! Also I feel that Super Smash Bros 3DS was the best port from Wii U, since it was made for handheld multiplayer and even had cross play with Wii U, although it’s mostly it’s own game!
I recently picked up (downloaded off hShop) Toad’s Treasure Tracker for 3DS and I was genuinely impressed when the intro level showed up. Video doesn’t really do the game justice, on actual hardware with the 3D slider cranked all the way up this game actually looks so good
I got Mario Maker 3ds the day it released, and literally returned it the same day when I found out I couldn't use online features. It felt like a waste of time to build anything on it
Hey Scott, not sure if you take suggestions but with the resurgence of the 3ds' popularity you should talk about the presentation and personality on the homescreen compared to the switch. You can tell the banger games on this system by what loadup animations looked like, some games had a full little 3d thing and others just a square pic with the games name, the switch has none of this
I realized at exactly at 5:55 in this video that I have nostalgia for the Wii U era now Oh god I blame the NES Remix that was on the EShop for awhile and that every Nintendo youtuber used Also, Mario Maker 3DS feels like a Homebrew port If it was, it would he the coolest thing of all time but since it was full price, it is absolutely stupid
I was inbetween highschool and middle school when hyrule warriors 3ds came out, and myself and a good friend had a blast with that one. we both had new 3ds models so it wasn't bad. our bus ride from school would usually be at least a half hour (we lived fairly close so it was similar on both of us) so we got tons of use out of the game. the 3ds version had added around 4 or 5 extra adventure maps, imo the best part of the game by far, so it was easy to crank out a mission or 3 on the way home. Overall probably my favorite late 3ds experience
I think for games like hyrule warriors legends they added more features to some of the 3ds ports because they had to make up for the fact that some of them were bad because they were on something weaker than the wii u which was where they were made first
I loved the 3DS version of Super Mario Maker at the time I never owned a Wii U and loved the conccept of making your own mario levels, got the game for christmas 2016 and looking back yes its not as good as the Wii U version but I still put atleast a hundred hours into the game.
@@trashtrash2169It would've made sense tho, it's the sequel of a DS game and it didn't release on the DS's successor. Instead we got in on the Wii's successor. While we got a Wii game on the DS' successor. I think they Nintendo Switched up the consoles, apparently
As someone who never got a Wii U in the first place, I'm glad that we got stuff like SMM 3DS and Ultimate Nes Remix. I think both work really well as mobile system titles.
The only way you could make me uncomfortable is porting Animal Crossing Amibo Festival to the 3DS... KEEP IT IN IT'S GRAVE! And if you want to help me, dig the grave deeper, put a stick of dynamite, and don't dig it out. Ever.
It’s really funny how a lot of my 3ds games I had were of Wii U games and I never had a Wii U so it worked on me as a kid. I played the crap out of hyrule warriors on 3ds 😭
I never unlocked all the course objects in Mario Maker for 3DS because I got stuck on 8-1 in the Challenge Worlds… and I can’t be bothered to go back and try finishing the Challenge Worlds because Mario Maker 2 exists
Yoshi's Woolly World looks amazing in 3D! Too bad they took out coop, otherwise it would've been the definitive version for me. As it stands, the Wii U version is superior because of the coop play. Also, Minecraft would've been even cooler if it had 3D like they promised.
Surprised he didnt talk about the load times with The Chase Begins - specifically the fact that every time you want to enter a new section of the city, the game goes into a load screen. Made it so that I didnt want to even bother 100%ing the game unlike the wii U one
I love whenever Scott shows off the Mario Maker 2DS, like he’s trying to get value out of it
As a 2DS owner myself I’m very familiar with the self-gaslighting necessary to convince myself to use it over any other handheld
@@jarrettbellboyhaving used a Switch Lite for just a month made me realize how superior are the 2DS ergonomics in comparison
He's trying to write it off as a work expense
I have that 2ds- gaslight is all i do with it
@@CrocoDylianVT So the switch lite isn't worth it,

@@TaxeAndStuffwould've been cool if there was a minigame type of thing though, not a real port but a game based around it that takes less power. Would've worked well considering all the badges and themes they had for it.
Would've been cool if they did a spin-off platformer like they did w/Hey Pikmin
That would've been crazy ambitious but I would've loved to see it happen
Late response, but, interestingly, there was an April Fools joke from Nintendo Life, I believe, where they made a "leaked" image of the game in question's 3DS port, which had a cel-shaded effect, giving an idea of how it could have looked on the 3DS if said port was real.
I loved getting 3DS versions of these games cause god knows I was never getting a WiiU
I didn't own a Wii U so I got the 3DS Hyrule Warriors and had a good ass time? But I noticed on a regular 3DS it physically couldn't load enough enemies, which was a HUGE problem for missions where you had to kill 1,000 enemies in a time limit or whatever. And sometimes it would spawn them all in a straight line. On a New 3DS it's powerful enough to handle more stuff on screen and fixed most of the issues. It also held my attention for a long time until the Switch Definitive Edition came out and made it completely obsolete lol
Warriors Legends was actually really good on New N3DS, although I never tried WiiU/Switch versions. Had a lot of fun playing it
When talking about the tangential games to the subject, I expected Scott to talk about Rodea the Sky Soldier, since that was a 3DS game ported to Wii U, but I suppose that’s the opposite of what this video’s about lol
I know these types of ports often comes out bad, but I used to love when they tried to put big console games onto handhelds. It was just weird and fun lol.
I see a 3DS video, I click.
I remember trying to use Mario Maker for 3DS to try and help clear uncleared levels before the Wii U and 3DS servers shut down kinda knowing full well that course mode would be an uphill battle. (because I don't have a Wii U) I joined the Team 0% discord server only to be immediately be told that clearing a level on 3DS doesn't translate to a clear on Wii U
I left wishing telling the dude who broke the news to me that I'd be cheering from afar
Great video. I have an only ever experienced Mario Maker 1 with the 3ds version so I have a bias for it.
One example you forgot was Mario VS. Donkey Kong Tipping Stars. The interesting thing about that one was that it had cross buy between the two versions
Scott: "Now we shall talk about a REAL man's game!"
Game: Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World
You should've mentioned desert island escape from AC New Leaf.
In the Doctor Who episode "Dalek", a thing that cannot feel happiness is given emotion through a DNA transfer. When it touches the sunlight for the first time ever, it declares "this is not life", and ends itself. This also is what the 3DS did after being made to run hyrule warriors.
NES Remix Pack is exactly what Nintendo did with Wii Sports + Wii Sports Resort (a bundle that that included a menu that would lets you launch into either of the games on the disk).
I can't believe scott the woz didn't talk about Monster High New Ghoul in School. Best Wii U/ 3Ds crossgen game.
The Hyrule Warriors Legends section was frustrating because you kept saying the port didn't work, but you didn't explain 'why'. Was it the framerate? Was it laggy? Is it hard to see?
These Stash channels have a great format. The full reviews with cutaways and every prop you could ever need are fantastic, but these don't feel like the "lesser" version.
mario maker 3ds likely didn't include the amiibo costumes because all of the voice/sound clips for all the characters would take a massive toll on the small capacity of the cartridge
still my least favorite 3ds game though
I find that hard to believe when Smash 4 and Fire Emblem Echoes exist
Highly doubt that.
Honestly looking back, I'm surprised SMM didn't begin life as a DSiWare title or something. Like a more scaled down version that just had SMB1 graphics. If it still online sharing it would've huge. Not sure Nintendo waited until Wii U.
Wasn't Scott's complaint about NES Remix 2 was that it featured too many heavy hitter titles, and that the original was better for featuring more obscure games
i downloaded nes remix after this and it’s rly good thanks scott
7:55 🚨 SCOTT PLAYING A VIDEO GAME 🚨
Kirby’s Epic Yarn which was originally a Wii game actually was better on the 3DS! Also I feel that Super Smash Bros 3DS was the best port from Wii U, since it was made for handheld multiplayer and even had cross play with Wii U, although it’s mostly it’s own game!
honestly some of these were really good
I recently picked up (downloaded off hShop) Toad’s Treasure Tracker for 3DS and I was genuinely impressed when the intro level showed up. Video doesn’t really do the game justice, on actual hardware with the 3D slider cranked all the way up this game actually looks so good
I got Mario Maker 3ds the day it released, and literally returned it the same day when I found out I couldn't use online features. It felt like a waste of time to build anything on it
Well you couldn't share them, but you could play Wii U users' stages
Hey Scott, not sure if you take suggestions but with the resurgence of the 3ds' popularity you should talk about the presentation and personality on the homescreen compared to the switch. You can tell the banger games on this system by what loadup animations looked like, some games had a full little 3d thing and others just a square pic with the games name, the switch has none of this
It’s about damn time that Scott talked about warioware gold
I realized at exactly at 5:55 in this video that I have nostalgia for the Wii U era now
Oh god
I blame the NES Remix that was on the EShop for awhile and that every Nintendo youtuber used
Also, Mario Maker 3DS feels like a Homebrew port
If it was, it would he the coolest thing of all time but since it was full price, it is absolutely stupid
I was inbetween highschool and middle school when hyrule warriors 3ds came out, and myself and a good friend had a blast with that one. we both had new 3ds models so it wasn't bad. our bus ride from school would usually be at least a half hour (we lived fairly close so it was similar on both of us) so we got tons of use out of the game. the 3ds version had added around 4 or 5 extra adventure maps, imo the best part of the game by far, so it was easy to crank out a mission or 3 on the way home. Overall probably my favorite late 3ds experience
I think for games like hyrule warriors legends they added more features to some of the 3ds ports because they had to make up for the fact that some of them were bad because they were on something weaker than the wii u which was where they were made first
that intro was too funny😂
I'd love to have NES remix ported to switch.
Dunno if this comment is serious but they wouldn’t do that because of their online service
100% serious. I love that game. @@conan8819
I loved the 3DS version of Super Mario Maker at the time I never owned a Wii U and loved the conccept of making your own mario levels, got the game for christmas 2016 and looking back yes its not as good as the Wii U version but I still put atleast a hundred hours into the game.
Mario & Sonic at the 2016 Rio Olympic Games for the 3DS has an exclusive story mode campaign, and is therefore the superior version for solo players.
I would have preferred a port of Kirby and the Rainbow Curse instead of Epic Yarn.
That's fucked.
@@trashtrash2169It would've made sense tho, it's the sequel of a DS game and it didn't release on the DS's successor. Instead we got in on the Wii's successor.
While we got a Wii game on the DS' successor.
I think they Nintendo Switched up the consoles, apparently
@@vittosphonecollection57289 Sure... Only one of the games mentioned is good though.
I want to see some more of Nintendo 3DS games on switch
As someone who never got a Wii U in the first place, I'm glad that we got stuff like SMM 3DS and Ultimate Nes Remix. I think both work really well as mobile system titles.
I’ve always thought this was such a strange trend with the switch just on the horizon, or having just came out!
Can't wait for super scott maker for the 3ds
The only way you could make me uncomfortable is porting Animal Crossing Amibo Festival to the 3DS... KEEP IT IN IT'S GRAVE! And if you want to help me, dig the grave deeper, put a stick of dynamite, and don't dig it out. Ever.
This console game on handheld isn’t complete without Cobler snuggling up next to the cases
It’s really funny how a lot of my 3ds games I had were of Wii U games and I never had a Wii U so it worked on me as a kid. I played the crap out of hyrule warriors on 3ds 😭
Yoshi's wooly world, and Kirby's epic yarn are some of my favorites 3DS games.
That Mario Maker 2DS is quite nice.
I love listening to Scott talk about captain toad 3ds port
I never unlocked all the course objects in Mario Maker for 3DS because I got stuck on 8-1 in the Challenge Worlds… and I can’t be bothered to go back and try finishing the Challenge Worlds because Mario Maker 2 exists
The other console Nintendo used before the switch to make sure the titles they worked on aren’t stuck on their worst selling console, the Wii U .
Yoshi's Woolly World looks amazing in 3D! Too bad they took out coop, otherwise it would've been the definitive version for me. As it stands, the Wii U version is superior because of the coop play. Also, Minecraft would've been even cooler if it had 3D like they promised.
Both great consoles
I remember when these games had my heart tbh
Can we please talk about how frustrating it is that you can’t reset SMM for 3DS, so you’ll need a second 3DS if you want to play from the start again
Cant you just delete your save/user data in the settings?
@@AnAverageGoblin Nope… Already tried that
Sence Poochy wasn't even in Yoshi's Wolly World on Wii, it made sense to add him into the remake. Plus, we get Poochy Pups!!
:>
I watched this on my GBA
Surprised he didnt talk about the load times with The Chase Begins - specifically the fact that every time you want to enter a new section of the city, the game goes into a load screen. Made it so that I didnt want to even bother 100%ing the game unlike the wii U one
I loved Mario Party the top 100, but was upset at the time that it wasn’t on a console.
