If a Smash 4 port doesn't come this year as a way to push Nintendo's paid online service than it is never coming. I also heavily doubt they won't announce it around E3 if it exists. Smash Bros is the perfect game other than Splatoon to push online. (1st party wise)

Also Smash bros will have like a year+ from reveal to release. It's not Smash Bros without the hype cycle to be honest. At least for me I won't be surprised if Nintendo thinks the same way.

Smash Bros is definitely the most likely game to be released to show off their online service.  That is if the service is going more of the matchmaking route.  However, I wouldn't totally rule out Animal Crossing as the game they pick either.  In this case it would be more about sharing the Animal Crossing experience with more people.  It might borrow elements from MMO's or perhaps they will incorporate a modified version of Miiverse into the game.

It kind of depends if they want their online service to focus more on competitive online or cooperative/sharing online.
