i swear there better be a wii u version
It's this new trend of developers taking console/arcade franchises and sticking them on portables exclusively. Other examples include Mega Man Legends 3, Paper Mario 3DS, Metal Slug 7, Contra 4, Okamiden. There are probably more but those are just the first few that come to mind.
The problem with this is that I usually want to play the newest Luigi's Mansion or Mega Man Legends or Paper Mario on a huge HDTV and become completely immersed in it, not a small 3-inch LCD screen while I'm lying in bed or riding a metro train. We may get a 3DS Player in the future but it'll probably upscale, not redraw; try resampling a 400x480 image to HD resolution and see what happens. The ideal solution would be to release versions of each game for both console and portable (Sonic Colors kind of sort of did this), but not many seem to want to take that risk.
