Well, it says Winter 2014 on the official Smash Bros facebook now, so I guess that puts that to rest.
Because it's exactly the same date as they came out with??
Winter 2014 starts Dec 21st and ends March XX.

I see. I wonder what the connectivity will be. If i should guess, it would be some trading mechanic somehow. Or maybe unlock some progression (kinda like cross save).They keep saying that they will discuss that at a later date. I guess if Wii U isn't out until winter, they've got plenty of time to discuss these feature as that version approaches.

Aww last gen programming is hard! .....for a team that took a 6 year break from cutting edge coding. Welcome to 2008 Nintendo!
SM3DW had better graphics, extra exclusives etc over SM3DL and yet a lot of people were burned out from SM3DL or just didn't consider is it worthy buying a new console for SM3DW. The same happened with NSMBU. And DKC:TF.
Yes, the Wii U version look gorgeous, yes and the Wii U owners will buy it, but how many people will buy a new console for the prettier version of a game that they played months ago? It didn't work with the previous games, why it will work with SSB?
At list MK8 has more things going and it is the best looking game on the system.
You all are delusional if you think X or Bayo will release this year, let alone this Summer.
After Kart 8 we have jack and shit.

Bayonetta 2 will be this year.
Who knows on X, but Bayo has been dated for Summer in Japan since a few months ago. I would be very surprised if Bayo wasn't out by this Fall.

So, last year Nintendo apparently delayed Wii Party U and Wii Fit U to "Winter 2013".

I guess so but I still can't help feel a little upset about this news since Smash Bros. is my favourite video game series ever so I wanted to experience the best version first. Then again Sakurai is an amazing dev so I should trust his decision.We don't even know what the exclusive Wii U content will be, I think you are being a little cynical to the situation. Let's see what Nintendo does at E3 and then judge the Wii U version.
Maybe different modes and versions exclusive characters. No one knows.
Makes sense, I guess.
If both were released in the same period, people would just chose one or the other. They'll sell a ton more of the 3DS version by releasing it first, because most of the Wii U owners (like myself) wouldn't have bought it otherwise. And then a few months later, when people are bored of the bare bones 3DS version, Nintendo will start hyping up the Wii U version with it's shinier graphics and extra content.

Okay, completely honest question, do we have a previous example (that we can link to online) stating a Winter _______ title from Nintendo that did not release in seasonal Winter?
If someone can link me to one, I'll change the title to be generic.

But Bayo 2 is Summer in Japan...You all are delusional if you think X or Bayo will release this year, let alone this Summer.

Fighting games are crazy and so are it's fans. Smash isn't a typical fighting game for the most part neither are its fans but if you look at fighting games you get soo many iterations and each time the fans get hyped. They'll announce some god-tier exclusive characters and features/modes/levels and improve the visuals a bit before launch, have the best online etc and people will get excited. It's the flagship release in every single way. Some people may like the painted look of the 3DS game or whatever but the Wii U version might as well be called Super Smash Bros. Definitive HD Edition.

Okay thank you for actually finding that.http://www.vg247.com/2013/06/11/wii-party-u-wii-fit-u-out-winter-2013/
Says that Wii Party U will be out winter 2013
Release date October 2013
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wii_Party_U
Wii Fit U was also delayed to winter 2013
http://uk.ign.com/articles/2013/06/11/e3-2013-wii-party-u-wii-fit-u-delayed
was released on the E-Shop November and physical early December
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wii_Fit_U
I think they only have summer and winter, no spring and fall/autumn so they can packaged into whereever is needed.
Hope this puts pay to the 2015 stuff.
Zelda Musou. Hot shit man. Nobody asked for that. Not even the seven people in the world that play Dynasty Warriors.
All that Nintendo frustration. I totally get it now. And I'm not even a diehard Smash fan like you guys. I just wanted something I knew would be fun to play between June and September. Fuckin blows dude.

Wait for E3, Drew. Then worry!

I disagree.Hope this puts pay to the 2015 stuff, when Nintendo say winter they seem to mean October-december as well.
Exactly. Spreading them apart allows you to reel them back in again when they're thirsty. Not everyone will bite again but most of these people would have went for the 3DS version if they released simultaneously regardless *cue everyone saying they were going to get the Wii U version but now aren't*
Didn't they just say that the rooster will be the same? So you think they lied on purpose to sell the 3ds version better?
Wait for E3, Drew. Then worry!
Sounds crazy to me to not release them at the same time.
I was going to get both regardless. But I'm pretty sure that the Super Smash 3DS summer release date, has just convinced me to upgrade to a 3DS XL and sell my launch 3DS.
I'll be devastated if Kart gets delayed.So I'm guessing Mario Kart is supposed to last us seven months.
Man...
Watch that shit get that two month delay just like Tropical Freeze did
Yeah, but E3 is beginning of June. That means no retail game announced at E3 will release until July. NoA doesn't do July, so August. So best case scenario late July in EU and August in NA for the next retail 1st party game on Wii U.

When Nintendo say winter they seem to mean October-December as well.

From the IGN article: "During its pre-E3 Nintendo Direct today, Nintendo confirmed that Wii Party U has been delayed to October"
Retail version came out in January 2014 in NA and February 2014 in Japan.
I disagree.
