Since the title is conjectural, wouldn't it be a good idea to simplify it to Super Smash Bros. (3DS/Wii U)?
It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 14:40, 11 June 2013 (EDT)

How exactly is the title conjectural in the first place, though? I got this logo from the SmashWiki, and there's a similar one for the 3DS version:

It doesn't seem like... a title. It seems they put a "for" to differentiate the two games, not as part of the title of the game.
It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 15:00, 11 June 2013 (EDT)

Yes, but it's the closest thing we have to a title for the time being, and it comes from an official source. Even if it's just a working title, it's not conjectural. Pseudo-dino (talk) 16:14, 11 June 2013 (EDT)

It's a working title, we should have something better before long. --™ The 'Shroom 16:17, 11 June 2013 (EDT)

Should we keep the conjecture tag for the time being? It seems official enough to me (what if this actually is the official name, no matter how unlikely?), but obviously there's some disagreement. Pseudo-dino (talk) 16:25, 11 June 2013 (EDT)

We'll keep it, yeah. And even if it may seem official (it doesn't to me), it is not. --™ The 'Shroom 16:27, 11 June 2013 (EDT)

Er, the conjecture tag was removed, and not by me. I agree with removal, again, since the name is sourced. Should it stay this way? Pseudo-dino (talk) 18:00, 11 June 2013 (EDT)

Another New Comer???

I was just browsing the Super Smash Bros. 3DS/WiiU site and noticed space in the bottom right corner on the character roster, There's another newcomer to be announced!!!! - Cubeguy(talk)

Update!! Further probing reveals through the roster reveals six more character slots!! There's defiantly one more newcomer!!! - Cubeguy(talk)

There is a wide space on the bottom right corner, but I guess that's space for two veterans.
It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 00:00, 12 June 2013 (EDT)

Well it could be, but it wouldn't surprise me if they decided to round the numbers of for the newcomers. Im hopping! - Cubeguy(talk)

Special characters for different versions?

So i just rellised that there is no footage or images of the wii fit trainer on the 3ds version, so i have the feeling that there are certain characters on certain versions. - Cubeguy(talk)

Forget that. - Cubeguy(talk)

Characters

Just wondering. Would it be safe to assume that all of the original twelve would appear in this game? User:FireFlower

Probably, but it's best to wait until they're announced before adding it in. Yoshi876 (talk)

Even like Jigglypuff or Captin Falcon User:FireFlower

Yes, because they haven't been announced so it'd be classed as speculation and removed. Yoshi876 (talk)

We can already assume Ness Luigi and Sonic will return. It's Luigi's year, Mother 3 will be released in Europe. Nintendo have scored Sonic so he can return to the series royalty free. Plus they are working in adding many characters as possible so we will see many newcomers first party and 3rd party. User:Donaldthescotishtwin

But someone said that the characters would be limited because of the 3DS' capabilities, and so not everyone is returning. Yoshi876 (talk)

The game is still early in development is it not? Down the line eventually the 3DS version will have a smaller rooster but with more newcomers to replace characters that could not make it, and those will be the ones returning for the WiiU version. The 3Ds may have even more newcomers than the WiiU. There's also the possibility of DLC yes they are not considering it now, but they listen to the fans and they are able to now so it would be crazy not to have downloadable characters. User:Donaldthescotishtwin

3D OOT

Since the 3DS version has stages based on portable titles shouldn't we say gerudo valley is based of Ocrania of Time 3D?
The preceding unsigned comment was added by King Koopa (talk).

It mostly likly will but we wo n't know for quite awhile. - Cubeguy(talk)

Forget that the stages where in the trailer. - Cubeguy(talk)

Wii Fit Soccer Ball

I believe that's part of Wii Fit Trainer's moves, not an item by itself. Look at 6:55 in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQD1yJinzeQ&feature=player_detailpage#t=414s --Baconator (talk) 00:02, 14 June 2013 (EDT)

THE TITLE IS ANNOUNCED!!

The title's are simple Super Smash Bros. One is for the 3DS and the other for the WiiU. Here is the link to the article containing it and a bunch of new inforamtion - Cubeguy(talk)

Ice Climbers

"Mentioned during a Q&A with Masahiro Sakurai as some characters being worked on, but may not make it."

This does not confirm them or deny them. He just used them as an example. So I do not think they should be there. Crash-Bash (talk) 16:55, 14 June 2013 (EDT)

Another three characters

If you go on the mobile version of the official website click on somebody scroll all the way down it will show characters go to the third page and it will show 3 empty slots!!! 68.149.81.38

Cubeguy already mentioned that, didn't you hear? Kingfawful4321

Yeah, im all other this like......um....when i was with Luigis Mansion 2. - Cubeguy(talk)

Update Artwork

Shouldn't the artwork of all the characters be updated from the Brawl photos to the new ones released ? JackpotJordan 15:16, 19 June 2013 (EDT)

You mean for articles such as Kirby, Link, and Fox McCloud? I don't know, actually, but I feel that people won't let us change the artwork until the game is released.
It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 15:21, 19 June 2013 (EDT)

Possible boxarts

Her you go: http://www.mariowiki.com/File:SSB4_boxart_2.jpeg Shyman

Sorry that's fan art, which is something we don't cover here.

Shokora (talk · edits) 11:24, 22 June 2013 (EDT)

@YoshiKong: Don't you mean something we don't' cover here? --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 11:25, 22 June 2013 (EDT)

Yes that's exactly what I meant lol. After two work shifts in one day I don't think my hand-eye co-ordination is being careful with the keyboard strokes :P

Shokora (talk · edits) 11:30, 22 June 2013 (EDT)

May i just say the titles of the games where announced earlier, which i posted here with the link to the article. Just saying we can easily dodge fan art covers as the names for both games is just Super Smash Bros. - Cubeguy(talk)

Yellow Devil explanation

I put Yellow devil on the page back during Megamans reveal trailer at E3, but i really didn't explain where he is seen. Frankly if it wasn't for a friend i wouldn't have noticed him. After the Smash bros. title at the end of the trailer, there is a small scene, a few seconds long, showing megaman about to face Yellow Devil on the Wilys castle stage, i dont know if it is apart of classic mode or the new adventure mode, most likely the latter. I hope this clears up any confusion. - Cubeguy(talk)

Donkey Kong Country Returns stage?

First of all why is this in the 3DS stage selection unless it's the 3DS version, and second could we move this to Other until it is actually revealed if its a stage or part of story mode. - Cubeguy(talk)

Just mentioning that although there will be no story mode it could be part of an adventure mode. I agree, I think it should be moeved to Other. MarioComix (talk) 01:05, 9 August 2013 (EDT)

Adventure Mode? Story Mode? Whats the difference same thing,was a bit confused for a bit and started going on a pointless search. Also i recommend proper investigations in to stages from now.
The preceding unsigned comment was added by Cubeguy (talk).

Well I believe that Melee had an Adventure mode, which was just a unique single player mode with no real storyline, while Brawl had a true Story mode with cutscenes and all. I'm just saying that with the confirmation of no story mode and cutscenes, it's still possible to see an Adventure mode like seen in Melee. MarioComix (talk) 03:47, 12 August 2013 (EDT)

Now, are we SURE...

Now, it says that as "Part of the Year of Luigi", Luigi will be a playable character in SSB 3ds/Wii U. Luigi appears in previous installments as a playable character, are we SURE that it's part of the YoL??? Iggy Koopa Jr (talk) 12:38, 9 August 2013 (EDT)

I don't think it is, considering the game comes out next year, after the Year of Luigi has finished. Yoshi876 (talk)

Well, seeing that it comes out in '2014, that's next Year, right??? Iggy Koopa Jr (talk) 13:59, 9 August 2013 (EDT)

Yep, that's basically what I said :P Yoshi876 (talk)

What it meant was that as part of the Year of Luigi, they announced him earlier than usual, since in the past games he was a secret character and would remain hidden for a while. MarioComix (talk) 17:19, 9 August 2013 (EDT)

Different Final Smashes?

File:SSB4-Wii U- Samus Aran Attack - 123.jpg

This looks similar to some kind of final smash. Is it just me, or does it look like a new Final Smash? Thats what I think. Goombob 08:14, 16 August 2013 (EDT)
