Portable. Best thing for commuting.
I think animal crossing is best on any console as long as it doesn't have crappy graphics. I remember absolutely hating the WW graphics because the transition from GC to DS was horrible. I think only now do people prefer AC to be a hand held as New leaf's graphics were somewhat standard.
I can't wait to see what AC will look like in HD on the Wii U. The sooner they release these major titles like Animal crossing, smash bros, mario kart and zelda then the sooner the Wii U's sales will start to pick up. It happened with the DS - there weren't very many decent launch titles and that set the sales to somewhat standard when it first released. The same with the Wii U.
It's not a matter of potential of the console, it's the matter of time until these major titles are released.
Only reason i'd ever buy that thing ^if animal crossing on wii u
imagine
wii u might succeed in existing and money
