Isn't Amiibo launching with Smash? Would seem odd to delay them when the Amiibos are supposed to be competing directly with Disney Infinity and other this holiday season.
 
"Could be", not will be. Even then that was if Sakurai decided to do heavy lifting on the characters due to the feedback from the demos. Considering he's probably already planning for patches I really see no reason why they'd delay the game if that avenue already exists for them.


He said DLC characters, specifically.

I don't really see "characters" so I would assume that he might talk about stages or other stuffs.
 
Wasn't Brawl's delay largely due to Sega changing their mind about Sonic's addition late into development, or am I completely wrong about that?

Sonic was the last character added according to the postmortem, so it's somewhat likely that he's the main culprit and messed with their timetables. But Brawl seemed to have a troubled development from the start with them announcing delays pretty early on.
 
Wait, so we're all freaking out because one guy who knows a guy who knows a guy who's working on Smash said the game might be delayed?

Never change, SmashGAF.

Hello, welcome to the Super Smash Bros for 3DS & Wii U Thread 10. This is a place for people who are interested in the Super Smash Bros series to come and talk about all of the news concerning the upcoming title.

It's always good to see new faces in here.
 
Now that I think about it, didn't that player Zero say he had an announcement and couldn't say anything right at the moment? Maybe he's the respected Smashboards member and was told about the delay?
 
Delays. Delays everywhere. :p

I think we'll just have to wait and see if they change the release date and announce delays. It's not like we can do something about it.
 
I'm gonna lol when half of SmashGAF comes back to this and goes "ha you were wrong" when neither of them said there would be a delay, only that there is a possibility.

I can't speak for other people, but I always like to hear rumors and gossips but never take them as 100% confirmation. I would like to be prepare for the future if something happened.
 
I'm really surprised everyone is putting so much stock into this. It's probably not true.
To be fair, the user I'm referring to I know isn't making anything up. But they're also not saying anything extraordinary either. Just general stuff like the marketing budget for Smash 4 or details about the staff being composed of members of HAL, Sora and Bamco. People decided to jump on the remote possibility of delay for the Wii U version and run too far with that.
 
hello nintendo investors this is me mr iwata

we are delaying smash bros for wii u and 3ds


our big holiday releases across platforms are captain toad's eshop game retail release and pokemon remakes
 
So many are overreacting over rumors. Chill out.

For what we know now, the games are still coming this year. Let it be.

So...POTD tomorrow....another special move?
 
I strongly doubt anyone would be 'excited' about the news. :lol

To be completely fair, Brawl's first delay was announced with Sonic, and if you consider Smash 4 3DS's October release a delay from Summer, that was also announced with 3 characters. If they announce a delay, it'll almost certainly be attached to something to get excited about.
 
That actually sound good. :)

No idea where suggestions go, but I welcome my late night rambling to you.

I don't think Nintendo can afford a delay. Might be why DLC is coming, they're going to finish up what they have, make a day 1 patch and day 1 free DLC with some stages and trophies.

I don't expect character DLC until 2015. 3DS in October, Wii U in November, ads start late November for kids to want the game and amiibos for Xmas. It's why the 3DS doesn't get amiibos yet, they want Wii U to sell more units. Then DLC characters will come in both amiibo form and download code form. It's what I expect, which means none of it will happen.
 
Wait, I missed that. What happened there? Did he mess with the wrong mod, like a cetain frog?
A user named MyFinestHour posted:

I want more part-human, part-animal anti-villain transvestite reps from new series in the game. I'm entitled to have a character I can arbitrarily relate to in Smash as well.

and it got him banned. Smithnco then posted:

I guess it wasn't his finest hour.

which made me chuckle. :)
