Wanted ] background
Is released in 2015 " Smash Bros. 6" has been produced to Wii-U and 3DS for at Bandai Namco and Nintendo . It consists of about 120 people present, the project is scheduled to increase the number up to 200 people . I have been led to the recruitment of this accordingly.

[ Job description ]

[ Specifically ]
Teams are divided finely development portion of the game .
Character in charge of production
Stage production in charge
Stage mechanism responsible
· 3D program personnel
Motion control charge
Game mode charge
Mini- game in charge
Menu screen charge
Menu around in charge of the UI
Such as , in charge is divided finely Besides , it is the image that I am in charge of a good business .

[ Chance Add to Bandai Namco is only now
These days when " social game" is we have raised , recruiting consumers ( deferred) game it is with the situation very little . I think under such circumstances , I think that for any future opportunity to be involved in the development project of Smash Bros. more than 10 million copies world total , and the timing of Bandai Namco 's the solicitation of consumer game programmer and , whether now or never .
※ It becomes the adoption of the " BANDAI NAMCO studio " .

No idea why they speak of Smash Bros. 6, or what that means. We all know this is Smash Bros. 4, or at least the one we've been following. A better translation would be appreciated.

If true, I'm out Nintendo. This game should have been at launch.

 

[BY2K]

Jesus Christ, dude. Chill out.

The Direct is in two days. Second, it says Smash Bros. 6. Smash Bros. 5 doesn't even exist!

 

[Chance Hale]

Please Understand :/

 

[Volotaire]

Not too sure if you can create threads without a good translation.

 

[StreetsAhead]

I am offended by the use of Google Translate. Regardless of whether its accurate.

 

[KingSnake]

It's obviously about SSB MMO to be released on QoL device.

 

[Persona7]

I guessed they were going to do a blowout at E3 this year and then announce the release date around E3 next year.

 

[Alcoholikaust]

2015?

Stab in the heart if true.

 

[reptilescorpio]

Were getting Smash 5 AND 6 next year? Yay!

 

[Nothing1016]

I don't believe that Nintendo would allow a recruiter/Namco to post such a detailed job description. If so, that's probably the poorest oversight by Nintendo I've ever seen. I'm gonna stick it out until Tuesday. But if I had to make a prediction, I'd bet this is for the 3DS version and maybe some DLC.

 

[GamerJM]

Seems like a typo to me, as discussed in the Smash topic. If it does happen to be true, by off-chance, then I'm interested to see what Nintendo has planned at E3 for release this year. In order to have a balanced release schedule they'd probably have to announce something for release within the next year, much like they did last year with 3D World and Tropical Freeze. There's a good chance they'll do that anyways, but Smash being delayed further increases that.

 

[Anth0ny]

Jesus Christ, dude. Chill out.

3DS is Smash 5, apparently.

Clearly 6 is for iOS since Nintendo is going third party next year

 

[Darryl]

If 6 is coming out in 2015 then we got a lot of Smash to play this year.

 

[Tenki]

Smash 4 on 2014.
Smash 5 and 6 on 2015.

I'm ok with this.

 

[L~A]

Smash Bros. 6? Damn, Nintendo now annualising Super Smash Bros.? Nintendo finally showing their true colours and their creative bankruptcy!!11!! F*ck this, I'm outta here!!!!...

....

Yeah, whatever.

Not too sure if you can create threads without a good translation.

This.

 

[ec0ec0]

Not too sure if you can create threads without a good translation.

this is what i am thinking too...

 

[Saikyo]

Maybe 4 is the 3ds version and 5 is Wii U? Now smash 6 must be a typo...

 

[KingSnake]

3DS is Smash 5, apparently.

Clearly 6 is for QoL

fixed

 

[GamerSoul]

Although this is very interesting, let's wait until the direct and see what Sakurai has to say.

 

[MisterHero]

Yeah we're gonna need a better translation.

 

[Boss Doggie]

So this is Smash paranoia in full force?

 

[SuperSah]

2015 and no sale.

 

[ec0ec0]

So this is Smash paranoia in full force?

its going to get worse. Just wait

 

[Abriael]

It says that Smash Bros 6 is expected to be released in 2015, and they're hiring for that.

there aren't many ways around that translation. What it means, your guess is as good as mine, but in this case google's not far off.

"Smash bros 6" may very well be a working title

 

[Chittagong]

 

[CriterionDog]

I doubt it. Seems like one smash a console/generation is all we need. Why would we need another one on wii u/3ds? Doubt this is true.

 

[Vashetti]

Please struggle to understand.

 

[Crocodile]

 

[Tregard]

Starting work on a Smash Bros. For launch of Nintendo's next console already, very good.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Starting work on a Smash Bros. For launch of Nintendo's next console already, very good.

But what about Smash 5?

 

[Basileus777]

I can't wait to play it on my non-wearable.

 

[watershed]

I'm not worried. In two days we will know the release date and I'm betting it's still in 2014.

 

[Tregard]

But what about Smash 5?

Maybe the 3DS version is known internally as 5? Or maybe they'll be two Smash games at launch!

Whatever this is, I'm very confused by it.

 

[KingSnake]

You know what is launching next year from Nintendo and already announced?

Hint: combine now Wii Fit with SSB 6 for a better health.

 

[E-phonk]

Smash Bros Adventure WiiU - a online 3D multiplayer competitive action/shooter game featuring all nintendo franchises. You start with only Pitt, NFC to add characters.

You know this is it.

 

[Jackano]

This post doesn't make any sense.
Except if the deal between Nintendo and NamcoBandai was over several games, and they count the 3DS one as SSB5.
At this point, I think it's a typo, 6 instead of 4. But 2015? ouch if real. We'll know soon enough.

 

[Boss Doggie]

It's Namco Smash Bros.

 

[NateDrake]

I'm not worried. In two days we will know the release date and I'm betting it's still in 2014.

2014 is a 100% certainty, I'd say.

 

[Rubius]

But what about Smash 5?

Wii and 3DS could be 4 and 5 easily since they are different games developed at the same time.

 

[Greenzxy]

OR it could mean we'll be getting 4 brand new smash games for 3DS and WII u in less than a Year apart! !!!!!!
HYYYPPE

Edit: MAKE THAT SIX

 

[elektrixx]

I would actually love Smash Bros. to be an annual franchise.

 

[trinest]

Could this potentially mean a delay? With out a proper translation its hard to tell no?

Though it is interesting. Another Smash so soon. If they do it yearly both WiiU/3DS I think Nintendo is well and truly in panic mode, and it seems pretty disaterious, I don't think Smash would work as a yearly release.

I like the idea it will be for the next console. If they say any different it probably would worry consumers this early in the game. But with 2015/2016/2017 been potential release years for the new console, they could potentially be trying to bring it out at launch.

But what about Smash 5?

That is the 3DS title.

 

[ViDnEz]

2014 WiiU.
2015 3DS

 

[BY2K]

What is that website anyway? We've never talked about it here before, and just because it points to a potential delay, now it deserves attention? Namco may not be the most secretive company, but Nintendo certainly is, would they allow Namco to talk about Smash so openly on a job listing? With a mistake in it, even.

hype traiiiiiiiiiiin

 

[Conor_Fool]

 

[Zalman]

It's not coming out in 2015, guys. Relax.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Maybe that's the direct for, to announce Smash 6!

That's what I was saying. Just doesn't make any sense especially when it's about a Company as secretive as Nintendo. Oh well though. Find out Tuesday and I'll buy the game either way.

 

[ecosse_011172]

I presume this, if genuine, is for finishing up work on Smash WiiU/3DS and they've screwed some details.
I can't imagine a Smash sequel one year later or the next one being delayed by a year.
