Talk:Super Smash Bros. for Wii U

Should the Unlockable on 3DS, and Starter on Wii U characters be unbolded? This IS the Wii U version.
 * well yeah, the page was originally merged. you should just remove 3ds ones altogether 16:48, 6 February 2015 (EST)

8-player Smash
How does the 8-Player Smash mode work? I haven't played this game yet. Do you need the Adapter for GCN controllers so 8 players can play? Or 8-Player Smash is only a mode with 8 characters and only up to 4 can be players and 4 CPUs? Remember, I haven't played this game yet.

 * Eight human players can play using any compatible controllers.

So, for example, 8 Wii Remotes can be used? Or 4 Wii Remotes and 4 GCN controllers? (just examples).

 * If you're using only Wii U Pro Controllers or Wii Remotes (or even a Classic Controller since they connect to the Wii Remote) you can only have up to seven; one of the controllers must be a non-bluetooth-connected controller (such as the GamePad or a GameCube controller). Otherwise, yeah, pretty much every combination you can think of is available to you (you can even use 8 3DS systems with copies of the 3DS game).

But my question is if the GCN controller adapter is mandatory to play with 8 players. As far as I know, the Wii U allows at the same time up to 5 controllers (4 Wii Remotes/Wii U Pro and the GamePad). Or in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U for example, you can play with the Gamepad and 7 Wii Remotes on the same Wii U console, making a total of 8 players?

Adding new images and stage pictures?
The Gameplay section says it needs more images, but does not specify which sections need them. It needs some clarification.

Also, I was wondering if the stage pictures in the stage section should be enlarged for better viewing and so that they better fit the boxes they are in?

Rewrite to "use original character descriptions as opposed to Trophy descriptions"
This rewrite request is present on both this article and Smash for 3DS, but I personally disagree with it. I feel that an official description of each fighter, whether coming from the game itself or related material like an official website, is better than an original write-up on each fighter that has the potential to be subjective. Since Smash for 3DS / Wii U uses official descriptions, and there's talk of a new fighter table for Ultimate that does this as well, I'd suggest instead going backwards and adding the trophy descriptions to Melee and Brawl, and whatever we can find for the original game. -- 12:46, November 22, 2019 (EST)
