They did it last year with LoZ on the 3DS and SM3DW on the Wii U. So the possibility of it happening again is high.

What time is the Treehouse live gonna start?
Nintendo usually releases on Friday now. So either Nov. 7, 14, or 21 are possibilities.

Ubisioft is incredibly stupid. The delay was one thing but to push the game so close to 1st party release dates is moronic. Early October would''ve at least made some sense.

The game's done.
It'll be out before year's end, no question.

Oh I didn't realize this. I thought they still did Sunday launches for the big games. I got MK8 launch day but I wasn't paying attention to what day it fell on.

I hope they do a bundle with the GameCube adapter and console for $330. That seems reasonable.
Gotta agree with everyone who's saying November 21st. Makes too much sense.

The fact that they are revealing the Wii U launch date on the live stream implies to me that it will definitely be out this year just in time for "Holiday 2014". If it were being delayed, I'd expect them to announce the date via a press release with no fanfare.
If it's not Friday, November 21st it'll be Sunday, November 23rd. Over the last 10 years, Nintendo has released almost all of their big holiday products on the Sunday prior to Thanksgiving (and Black Friday). That would be Nov 23rd this year. However, last year did see the release of both Super Mario 3D World and Link Between Worlds two days prior on Friday the 22nd. That may signal a shift in their release planning for this year. The fact that Pokemon ORAS are coming out Nov 21 also points to that date. They also released two big titles (one Wii U one 3DS) on the same day last year.
2013 - Mario 3D World and Link Between Worlds on Friday Nov 22nd.
2012 - Wii U on Sunday, Nov 18
2011 - Skyward Sword on Sunday, Nov 20
2010 - DKC Returns on Sunday, Nov 21
2009 - New Super Mario Bros. Wii on Sunday, Nov 15 (two Sundays before Thanksgiving)
2008 - Animal Crossing City Folk on Sunday, Nov 16 (two Sundays before Thanksgiving)
2007 - Super Mario Galaxy on Monday, Nov 12
2006 - Wii Console on Sunday, Nov 19
2005 - Mario Kart DS on Monday, Nov 14 (also Mario & Luigi Partners in Time on Monday, Nov 28)
2004 - Nintendo DS Console on Sunday, Nov 21

3DW or MK8... tough decision.
No. I don't do things like that.
Just saying that amiibo and Smash are vital to the Wii U's health this holiday, and for them to skip Black Friday would be suicide.

I'll be very surprised and disappointed if it's not out in November.

I don't know. You usually have a good intuition for this kind of stuff, but the Brawl release has made me really skeptical when it comes to Nintendo and what they should be doing. Would definitely love to see you right though. By the way did you see this posted in the other Smash thread?
Lmao so awesome
Mario Kart is a more popular series sales wise and they had a bundle along with a free game offer for Mario Kart 8.
This isn't just about Smash Wii U, they also have Amiibos to think about.
Smash Wii U will have to have something for a sales promotion and I think it should at least be a bundle that inlcudes a Wii U.

Why are strippers at the U.N. bad when they're great at strip clubs???
Sammy pls
Amiibos. They are not going to delay Smash U and send the entire toyline out to die.

Whenever I see the Brawl delay I have to point out that Mario Galaxy came out that holiday with Prime 3 out that August.
This holiday is Hyrule Warriors And Bayonetta 2.
They don't have any other major game to release.

Smash 3DS hasn't even come out yet.
Loads of work and time went into that, and directly from the same department working on Smash Wii U. I think they'll need a bit more time to polish up the home console version.I don't know.

Watch they break everyone's mind and go September 19.

Fans are gonna buy them regardless. The nfc aspect is icing on the cake. They could sell them tomorrow and they would be gone.
I'm very curious about what content will actually be in the Wii U version.
The 3DS ver. does seem to have a lot of single player focused content, would be a real shame if the Wii U ver. does not have this and comes out as a more bare bones version.
They haven't really shown anything substantial about the Wii U versions content as far as I know, kinda odd.
