people from big states liked the plan because big states got more representatives but the small states got less. i guess the primary features were that there would be three branches and u know everything else we have today but instead of only having two representatives in the senate you would have more based on the population of your state

The primary difference between the New Jersey Plan and the Virginia Plan lies in their proposed structures for the legislative branch of the U.S. government. The Virginia Plan advocated for a bicameral legislature with representation based on population, favoring larger states, while the New Jersey Plan proposed a unicameral legislature with equal representation for each state, ensuring that smaller states had an equal voice. This debate over representation ultimately contributed to the Great Compromise, which established a bicameral legislature combining elements of both plans.

The New Jersey plan stated that the larger states should have the most representation. This worried the smaller states that they would not be heard as much.

The biggest difference between the Articles of Confederation and the Virginia plan was the power of votes. In the articles each state had a representative with one vote, the Virginia Plan was based on representation decided by a state's population.
The Virginia Plan, in having a unicameral legislature whose delegates are assigned by population (much like having just the House of Representatives), favored large states, because their large populations would give them power.

Virginia Plan
Georgia voted in favor of the Virginia Plan during the Constitutional Convention in 1787. The plan proposed a strong national government with a bicameral legislature, which appealed to Georgia's interests in having representation based on population. As one of the smaller states, Georgia supported the plan, believing it would enhance its influence within the federal government. Ultimately, the Virginia Plan laid the groundwork for the structure of the U.S. Constitution.
