The controls in the 3DS version are ass. The circlepad sucks and there's no C-stick. This doesn't make it a bad game though. The Wii U version is most assuredly the definite version, Sakurai even said so himself. The game itself is still pretty fun and generally exciting.
Some examples of 'bad controls':
1. No C-stick makes Lucina and Marth a pain in the ass to use. Aerials tend to stride you towards the direction you're inputting and it sucks.
2. Sometimes you randomly face the other direction which can really mess with your momentum.
3. Depending on how you angle your special attacks, you could do a side special instead of an up special causing you to lose a stock.
4. The inability to fully customise the buttons is a pain. You can only 'swap' them rather than fully replace.
5. You're more likely to do tilts than smash attacks (or vice versa).
