| '''''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''''' ({{ja|大乱闘スマッシュブラザーズ for Wii U|Dairantō Sumasshu Burazāzu for Wii U}}, ''Great Fray Smash Brothers for Wii U'') is one of two games in the ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' series released as part of the ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' pair, and the home console counterpart to {{for3ds}}. Although most gameplay elements are shared between the two versions, there are several elements which distinguish the two.
| |
| | |
| The game is playable on the [[Wii U]] with a variety of [[controller]] options, including the [[Wii U GamePad]], the [[Wii U Pro Controller]], the [[GameCube controller]] via an adapter, and a [[Nintendo 3DS]] that is running [[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS|the 3DS version]] or a [[Smash Controller|special app]].
| |
| | |
| ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' was officially released on November 21, 2014 in the Americas, and was followed by Europe on November 28, 2014, Australia and New Zealand on November 29, 2014, and Japan on December 6, 2014.
