They've been hinting at this - customising characters on the 3DS for porting to the Wii U - They're adding NFC functionality to the 3DS... I'll try and dig up the links when I've got more time -

As an aside, just looked at Le Figaro -

"En fin d'année, nous aurons aussi deux très gros titres, Super Smash Bros en octobre et les remakes de Pokémon Saphir et Rubis en novembre."

Are they talking about the Wii U or 3DS version, I wonder.

Hard to say. All the "winter" talk means the game should come no sooner than November, but i doubt Smash Bros 3DS is any later than August.
