Your whole point about the logo was that it's the same logo as the Wii U one, so I don't understand why suddenly it's irrelevant.
And indeed, an altered logo doesn't make it a new game. But when the developper clearly stated that he's working on the game everyday but can't say too much about it yet, even its name, it does make it a new game. And also Nintendo never teased a port like that, regardless of the game. All Wii U ports were clearly shown as ports, so there is absolutely no reason to change that for one specific game. |
The entire logo point was initially made in response to someone saying that it was a new logo and therefore confirmed a new game. My response was that it wasn't an entirely new logo, just a modified version of the Wii U one, and shouldn't be taken as a significant indicator as such. I don't think I've ever argued that the logo suggests a port, because plenty of sequels have reused wordmarks from previous games.
I disagree with the second point; I think it's highly possible that an updated version of Smash 4 with a sizable amount of new content could very well be held under wraps for that reason, especially if it's going to be Nintendo's biggest hitter this year while we wait for Pokemon and Metroid Prime 4.
