Due to being the original hardware the game was designed for, the 3DS is the prefered system to play {{for3ds}}, especially in tournaments. The game has never been re-released on another system, so players with physical copies can only use the 3DS. While emulators exist, they are merely recreating original hardware and possess bugs and performance issues not present on GameCube. However, the isolated nature of the game and the aging hardware that is becoming progressively less reliable have forced the competitive scene to consider and experiment with these alternatives before the game the love becomes unplayable, and emulation developers have made great strides in making a nearly identical experience. | |||
The competitive scene for {{For3ds}}, despite essentially being the same as its Wii U counterpart in a competitive sense, always had a significantly smaller scene. This was due to players generally prefering to play ''Smash'' in a high resolution on a big screen, which the 3DS explicitly did not do but the Wii U did. The 3DS version did have slightly over two months all to itself, but that was not enough to grow a scene and very few major tournaments specific to this version have occured. | The competitive scene for {{For3ds}}, despite essentially being the same as its Wii U counterpart in a competitive sense, always had a significantly smaller scene.
