New Super Smash Bros. Game Begins Development

by metalliguy Featured 29 Comments 39 Votes 1346 Views 18/06/2012 Back to News

We all know that at Nintendo's 2011 E3 press conference, Reggie Fils-Aime prematurely announced the next game in the Super Smash Bros. series. It was later discovered that development on the game hadn't even began, causing anxious fans to be disappointed as it was obvious a long wait would be inevitable.

Recently, though, Masahiro Sakurai, director of the previous games, commented on the progress of the next title:

Masahiro Sakurai said: "We’ve just taken what you could call the first step of the process. This is the first time I’ve ever had my next project announced before it’s even entered development, and because of that, I fear that players will be forced to wait even longer than they expect to. Please be patient."

The 4th Super Smash Bros. title is expected to be released on both Wii U and 3DS.

I remember it was actually Iwata that announced it prematurely at last years E3. I'm thinking at best this will launch for the 2015 holiday period.

By the way abujaffer, Its C-c-c-c-combo Breaker! (From Killer Instinct [both gold and just KI] on the Nintendo 64. It was also the name of the 'Streetfighter' in which you could play as in KIG. [And non gold.] [I know my gaming history. {Im a major computer whizz BTW.}])

They should put Megaman in this, even though Nintendo has announced that they probably wont put any more characters in, and that the WiiU will be able to connect and Brawl with the 3DS.
