tbone51 said: Why do people here think SSB being released Q2 or Q3 next year? Its been in Development for just a year and 4months and they are working on 2 games(yes 1 game but they both are still different). SSB4 earliest release will be Holiday 2014. Dont you guys remember SSBB delays? like 2 or 3 major ones and wasnt it in development for like 2.5years-3 years? (that i dont know o.O This is coming from a guy who has SSB as his favorite franchise in gaming ![]() |
Namco has already worked with the Wii U with Tekken, so it is possible they were working on both titles at the same time. Smash Bros doesn't need super natural movement for its characters so it should be easier than Tekken. Some of the battlefields are from the Wii era games, and watching the Skyloft pictures they won't be updated that much. If they are using Wii engine, it should be faster than before with a team with experience on Wii U like Namco. Besides, hardcre titles like Smach could do better right around E3 because there are no competence for it during that tme. Most biggest franchises tend to be released at the end of the year. Besides, It can't give a bost to Wii U during normally slow hardware sales.
We all think Nintendo has been working on Wii U titles for 1 year, but considering how Pikmin3, The Wonderful 101, Mario 3D World look like I will say those games have been in development for at least 1 1/2 years before E3.
