Talk:Super Smash Bros. for Wii U

Possible SSB4WIIU release date?

It says October 28. Awesomelink234 (talk) 17:32, 24 July 2014 (EDT)

Retailers have a long history of "guessing" release dates for games. Unless it originates from a Nintendo source, I wouldn't include a release date from a retailer. Miles (talk) 17:34, 24 July 2014 (EDT)

I just checked on the offical Smash Bros. site, and it said nothing about a release date. Awesomelink234 (talk) 17:38, 24 July 2014 (EDT)

Hence why we should wait to include it in the article. We should be getting an official release date any day now. Miles (talk) 17:54, 24 July 2014 (EDT)

Nintendo France banner inadvertently displaying Super Smash Bros. 4 (Wii U) release date

There was news of a Nintendo France advertisement that showcased a potential release date of November 21, 2014, but apparently it has been addressed as an error by Nintendo. I guess time will tell of the banner's veracity. Fenyx4 (talk) 11:18, 16 September 2014 (EDT)

Release Date: November 21st?

I hear it's then. 31.48.26.98 12:11, 25 September 2014 (EDT)

There is no confirmation, although it is kinda widespread. Nintendo of France confirmed that this release date is false for France at least, (which was on one of their ad banners for their game) but this may just be them covering their asses. Either way, it probably shouldn't be mentioned til' we get 100% confirmation. Laikue (talk|contribs) 12:23, 25 September 2014 (EDT)

Amazon Leaks New Features

Amazon has a stage builder and board game mode listed on their website for the Wii U version.[1][2] Nintendocan (talk) 15:10, 17 October 2014 (EDT)

We have, like, three other discussions about this already, you're a bit late to the party. (check recent changes for them) Laikue (talk|contribs) 15:26, 17 October 2014 (EDT)

Sorry. Didn't notice. Nintendocan (talk) 16:46, 17 October 2014 (EDT)

Master Orders and Crazy Orders

Since I can't make the edit myself (too new) and they were officially released, should we not; A. Give Master and Crazy Orders they're own page, or B; at least mention them here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Herobrine8219 (talk • contribs) 20:27, 23 October 2014 (EDT)

I'd give Master/Crazy Orders their own page (just one page, though), as they're separate modes from all others. Also, sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). Rtzxy Smashing! 20:31, 23 October 2014 (EDT)

Concerning character unlockability

Concerning unlockable characters, how do you know that certain characters are starters in the Wii U version? Is there a source? Tehplanefreak (talk) 20:45, 23 October 2014 (EDT)

Sakurai confirmed it in the latest direct. Laikue (talk|contribs) 21:06, 23 October 2014 (EDT)

Pokemon Stadium 3?

On the events page, this was shown. The background doesn't appear to match either Pokemon Stadium 1 or 2. Is this possibly a new Stadium? Dracyoshi (talk) 23:26, 23 October 2014 (EDT)

The ground matches 2. PikaSamus (talk) 23:28, 23 October 2014 (EDT)

I don't see why they would entirely change the background of the stage though. The background is closer to Stadium 1, but the giant TV doesn't seem to be visible.Dracyoshi (talk) 23:36, 23 October 2014 (EDT)

Maybe it's the Omega form? PikaSamus (talk) 23:39, 23 October 2014 (EDT)

I don't see why the Omega form would make a difference in the background of a stage that's already pretty flat. I'll start up Brawl and see if either look similar to the picture from that angle, since it might depend on where it's viewed from. Mistiryshak (talk) 23:40, 23 October 2014 (EDT)

Alright, that's done. It's not a definite, but it's probably Pokémon Stadium 2. It pretty much resembles the stage if the brightness was slightly lower, and in between Pikachu and Greninja you can see a blue pretty close to the blue on the sides of the screen. The toplights in the background have bracket-like extensions (sorry, not sure how to describe them) similar to the ones in the picture, and the lower lights around the height of the top of the stage would be in that relative position. The background side-things (again, not sure how to describe them) are also at an angle similar to in the picture. In addition, and I just noticed this, but the screen IS visible in the picture - just showing a video. You can see two Pikachu - the real one, and the one on the screen. It's lower than Pokémon Stadium 2, though. Still, it's more than likely Stadium 2 regardless. I'd take my word with a grain of salt though - I might be over-analyzing or seeing false clues. I should also mention we DO have a Pokémon Stadium 3 - it's called Kalos Pokémon League. Mistiryshak (talk) 23:57, 23 October 2014 (EDT)

I'm not sure how I didn't notice the double Pikachu. They definitely seem to match now that I look at it. Should it be added to the stage template? Dracyoshi (talk) 00:02, 24 October 2014 (EDT)

Let's not jump the gun here; I see no conclusive evidence that this is Pokémon Stadium 2. The two screens and the lighting do point to it, but I would suggest waiting until we get evidence before adding anything in. Qwerty (talk) 00:26, 24 October 2014 (EDT)

It's definitely a new stage though, or at least a stage we didn't know was in the game prior. Should we change it to "Unknown Pokémon stage" for now? Mistiryshak (talk) 00:36, 24 October 2014 (EDT)

The platform and background are identical to Pokemon Stadium 2. I don't see where there's room for confusion. Miles (talk) 00:37, 24 October 2014 (EDT)

Multi-Player Modes

The Direct announced Classic and All-Star would be two-player, so couldn't those be considered multi-player? SmashBros (talk) 13:06, 24 October 2014 (EDT)
