The base game was released in Japan on September 12th 2014.

1.0.1

1.0.2

This update was released for Japan on September 19th 2014.

インターネット対戦（だれかと）において、対戦開始直後に「ピーチ」の下必殺ワザ「野菜ひっこ抜き」を使用した際、まれに不正と誤判定されてしまう問題を修正しました。 その他、ゲームを快適に遊んでいただけるよう、いくつかの問題を修正しました。

Fixed an issue where, in online play, using Peach's down special move to pull vegetables near the beginning of a match would rarely result in an erroneous cheating violation. Some other issues have been fixed to improve the playing experience.

The update was later made available for the rest of the world on October 2nd, 2014, with notes that merge both the updates into one, make no mention of the bug explained in the Japanese text, and implies balancing changes that have otherwise been unnoticed by the playerbase:

• Enables online multiplayer features.
• Adjustments have also been made to balance the game and make for a more pleasant gaming experience.

1.0.3

This update was released worldwide on October 27th, 2014.

According to dantarion, the only changes made to the game were in interface and potentially the game structure itself - no changes were made to character mechanics.

Concurrent with the update to the game itself, an app named Smash Controller was released on the Nintendo 3DS eShop for $0.99 USD.
