Support NeoGAF

[Thoraxes]

Since the official adapter isn't available is there a recommended one?

Need to grab that and a GC adapter too.

Speaking of which, do we know if the controllers are going to be limited at all? I'm pretty well covered on GC controllers at the moment, but if these are only going to be available for a year or so and then discontinued I might grab some just to stock up. Kind of wonder about that, since these probably won't be supported for much (if anything) outside of Smash, and outside of a relatively small but hardcore fanbase there probably isn't going to be a lot of interest in them so I kind of doubt Nintendo is going to make them super widely available for a long period of time.

I went with this one:

The reviews were pretty much all positive. There's a slightly bigger one by the same company that also is pretty much all positive reviews too.

 

[Hibiki Kurosawa]

Surprise, surprise.

one day after watch dogs...should i hold out?? ;p

 

[HawthorneKitty]

Why the fuck do we have to wait 2 weeks in Europe?

Because of Fantasy Life of course. :3

 

[Mysterious]

And we get it before Japan does even.

Wheres the announcement thread for that?

Day 1

 

[Deleted member 231381]

Is that the same date from the

Spoiler

Ridley/Mewtwo/Impa etc.

supposed leak?

 

[MrSaturn99]

We get it first! We won't get spoiled on the Wii U exclusive stuff!

My first thought. Yaaaay!

 

[LiK]

I'm surprised it's coming here so soon. Please no more NWS exclusive LEs.

 

[Mysterious]

Yes. But tis date isn;t too hard to guess.

 

[TheSlySoul]

Why the fuck do we have to wait 2 weeks in Europe?

Because Black Friday.
No doubt if Black Friday did not exist, we would have gotten it on the 5th as well.

Also yeah, I ate a bit of crow not because of the date or anything but I would have sworn they release Captain Toad before Smash. I figured both were going to meet holiday 2014.

 

[Gartooth]

Excited to finally play this with a different thumbstick.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Yeah but the date has been circulating far more than those four.

 

[Kacho]

Time to schedule some time off at work.

 

[Maintenance]

Good, Pokemon and Smash on the same day. Now the wait for the amiibos begin.

I wonder how much they'll cost here, I bet about US$ 50.

 

[Immaculate]

WHAT A SHOCKER

Spoiler

i don't know why they were so quiet about the date for so long when it was known

 

[georly]

Oh man we get it first, i'm so so happy. Hopefully I can get this one early, too So excited.

 

[PadWarrior]

Japan is getting this.

Oooo

 

[VICI0US]

can't wait

I had some coworkers over playing 4 player smash 3DS over the weekend and it just got me even more hyped for the wii u version.

 

[SparksterMeta0]

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U |OT| Finish the Fight!

 

[An-Det]

I already had that day off so that's awesome, and the week after I'm barely working because of the holiday so plenty of time to dig into it. Can't wait.

 

[TheSlySoul]

Oh neat, I just realized I have the 21st off because Friday. Not going to midnight launch, but will enjoy picking it up at lunch.

 

[Jintor]

A full week later for AU/EU? WEAK

MORE TIME TO BUY AN ACTUAL TV I GUESS

 

[Josh7289]

Smart, shrewd business move to only announce it after the 3DS version is out worldwide. Also by doing that they can also tout the 3DS version's sales numbers to build hype for the Wii U version a bit more.

Anyway, I'm excited.

Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker was a critical and crowd favorite during the E3 Expo video game trade show in June. The game launches Dec. 5 at a suggested retail price of $39.99 and lets players take control of intrepid explorer Captain Toad as he sets off on adventures like exploring a haunted house or escaping a smoldering volcano

HELL YEAH!

Oh yeah! No delay!

You mean two weeks later, don't you?
One week after US date would be 28th of November. We're getting it another week later on December 5th.

 

[Isotope]

I am truly shocked at the release date.

 

[SUPERJEM94]

 

[Aostia]

so, still no PAL firm date, and no amiibo Limited Edition for the game? disappointed.

Yaaayy can finally smash with friends with the right controller! Not long now.

It's happening, isn't it?

You could at least try to search for it before posting.

 

[Dr. Buni]

I don't feel the need for the Wii U version, but I will probably be buying it anyway.

 

[Exile20]

Yes Nintendo you done good.

 

[Diddy Kong]

Japan is getting this.

need this in my veins.

Glad to see the date finally confirmed. My Wii U is ready.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Fortunately controllers aren't region locked

just sayin'

 

[ActStriker]

My body is ready.

 

[DrForester]

I am surprised Nintendo is putting this and Pokemon out the same day.

A Link Between Worlds, Mario 3D World.

Good date.

 

[DrZeus]

No black Friday bunderuu?

 

[BlackJace]

Seriously, there was no way this wasn't a 2014 release.

 

[MilesTeg]

Still hoping Nintendo does some kind of free game offer like MK8, but I'm obviously there day one regardless.

 

[Anth0ny]

SHOCKING!

Nice to get a Captain Toad date, too. Also, I'll be grabbing that White GC controller from Japan

 

[Rösti]

One would think at least the digital version would launch in Europe on November 21 too. But I doubt that will happen. Ah well, the wait isn't as bad as it was for Brawl, but still. It's nice to finally have a firm date.

Halo MCC: Nov 11
Dragon Age: Inquisition Nov 18
Pokemon Nov 21
Smash Nov 21

My life is fucked.
