Everyone is getting out of sonic now! It's terrible, Sonic games are getting lower ratings, many are ignoring its new releases. Maybe Sonic will redeem himself with the newest installment being Sonic Lost World. I played both the Wii U demo and the 3ds demo. I'll tell you how it is...

GAMEPLAY COMPARISON

Wii U
The Wii U version lacks in speed in compare to the 3ds version, the demo so far feels more like it's a puzzle. Which I'm ok with in some Sonic games, yet I feel like I'm restricted in speed, most Sonic puzzles are speedy and fast. Yet I don't feel like Sonic has much room to run out in the open and kill of multiple enemies in a flash or home attack a puzzle. The developers made it feel like a slow paced platformer like Mario (which is totally OK) with moving platforms, a few enemies, and more jumping and puzzle like areas.

3DS
I personally like the 3DS version much more. I feel less restricted and unlike the Wii U version the 3DS versions portable size seems to work better in this sonic game. The speed aswell fells a bit more faster the usual.

STORY
It's the same so...

HOW REWARDING IT FEELS
Each version has the same exact feel (except for the gameplay) yet I feel that the 3ds version has a certain lure to it. The stages are a tad different, and based on the demo the 3DS version has more "free" stages.

OVERALL
I would personally choose the 3DS version, although the graphics may not be better it feels more fluid in both speed and a game.
