Prediction-A late summer early fall Smash release means a holiday 2014 Zelda U release date!

[TK14]

I'm definitely curious to see why they are having a Smash Bros. dedicated Direct on Tuesday. I mean, it has to be something fairly "major" I would think, for the Direct to be solely focused on Smash. I'm inclined to actually think maybe it could be a release date reveal, just because if it isn't, and the game isn't coming until Fall, why not save it for E3? That being said, I wonder if the two versions will release at different times? Maybe 3DS sooner so the Direct will give a date for that and also reveal the single-player components and supposed character customization that you can "carry over" into the Wii U version later on? Hard to say, but either way Tuesday will be very interesting. If for whatever reason they DID reveal that both versions of Smash were releasing at the end of summer or early fall, then I'd DEFINITELY be curious to see what all they show and announce at E3 for the holidays. I don't believe Zelda would be ready either way, especially with Hyrule Warriors coming out, and likely Bayonetta 2, and maybe Yarn Yoshi. People are right when they say Nintendo NEEDS to leave some stuff for 2015. "X" is seeming like it has slipped into 2015 given the last Nintendo Direct when they reconfirmed all the other games for 2014 but didn't say a word about a release date for "X". Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem will hopefully be shown at E3 but given that all they had was a title in January 2013, I would be shocked if it wasn't a 2015 game. And then Zelda just seems like a very likely 2015 candidate. So that would leave a decent 2nd half of 2014 for Wii U and a solid-looking lineup for 2015 at this point too. The real question is...what the heck is coming out for 3DS the 2nd half of this year and beyond...other than Smash?
