I had a feeling SSB was coming July/August... for Wii U, not 3DS.
So, the recent job offering by namco was right. there`s a version coming out in 2015 (winter is not the same as holidays).

One thing`s for sure: something else is the big wii u holiday title.

Now i want to see how iwata is going to keep the wii u momentum in the west after mk 8.

January-February release?

Gosh, this is like the promise that never ends delivering.

He won't, that's the problem. He'll stick his fingers in his ears and yell "lalalalalalalala" pretending there isn't a problem while sales grind to a halt, because he's an incompetent moron.

Or maybe people will invest their money on 3DS version and never get the Wii U version.

It'll give me time to save up money for both versions. :P

Ima slap whoever gets the 3DS version. Why no adventure mode for Wii U? What the hell Sakurai? Nah, can't say that. The dude is a great game creator but... still. So much for getting my hopes up. And watch the next Nintendo Direct announce 30 newcomers because I joaned on this one so bad.

I guess this puts the last rumours of a big Zelda release for Wii U this holiday to rest...

Other than that, yeah I can see this maybe hurting the sales of the Wii U version, game looks pretty great though.

In fact i like the idea. After today i am really thinking about buying both, they feel like two distinct experiences

I dunno, I think they're playing clever. I think they've held back on announcing the extra feature for Wii U for a good reason, and I think that reason might be tied in with the fact that he teased interactivity between Wii U and 3DS, but wouldn't elaborate on it until 'a later date'. I think that they want as many people as possible to buy the 3DS version, and whatever they have up their sleeve will make the Wii U version a must-have for the 3DS version owners.

^^^ This is probably the case.
