Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS (Japanese: 大乱闘スマッシュブラザーズ for Nintendo 3DS Hepburn: Dairantō Sumasshu Burazāzu Fō Nintendō Surī Dī Esu?) and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U (大乱闘スマッシュブラザーズ for Wii U Dairantō Sumasshu Burazāzu Fō Wī Yū) are fighting video games developed by Sora Ltd. and Bandai Namco Games, with assistance from tri-Crescendo,[8] and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U consoles in 2014. The two games collectively represent the fourth installment in the Super Smash Bros. series of games, although Sakurai stated that they are officially the fourth and fifth installments, respectively.[9]
Like the rest of the series, Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U are non-traditional fighting games where players use different attacks to weaken their opponents and knock them out of the arena. The games are crossover titles that feature characters, items, music, and stages from various Nintendo franchises such as Mario, Donkey Kong, Pokémon, Kirby, Metroid, Star Fox, The Legend of Zelda, and Kid Icarus, as well as from third-party franchises such as Sonic the Hedgehog, Mega Man, Pac-Man, and Street Fighter. New features include having up to eight players fighting at a time on the Wii U and using Miis as fighters. Some older features have been removed, such as the story modes in predecessors Melee and Brawl and the presence of characters with multiple forms (for example, Zelda and Sheik, formerly one character, now must be selected separately).
A sequel to Brawl was announced at E3 2011, but development did not begin until 2012 and the game's official unveiling did not come until E3 2013. The gameplay was designed to be somewhere between that of the faster, more competition-oriented Melee and the slower, more casual-friendly Brawl. The 3DS version was released in Japan on September 13, 2014, in North America and Europe on October 3, and in Australia on October 4. The game is set to be released in South Korea in 2015.[5] The Wii U version was released in North America on November 21, in Europe on November 28, in Australia on November 29, and in Japan on December 6. Both versions have received positive reviews, with critics applauding the fine-tuning of existing Super Smash Bros. gameplay elements, but criticizing some issues with online play. Both versions have sold quickly, with the 3DS version selling over 6.75 million copies worldwide as of March 2015, and the Wii U version selling over 3.65 million copies during the same period of time.
