Everyone on the GFAQs forum all said it'd be coming in July/August. I was the only one who said Sept or later and nobody believed me. It's a good thing too for me because there is another game I want coming in Sept so this will give me more time to save for Smash.

We're all mad about another delay, but remember: "A delayed game is eventually good. A bad game is bad forever." My birthday is in late October, so this kind of works out for me. It's about time they stopped adding features and started polishing upon them!

But a game delayed to put that Mii stuff in it won't be any better than without it. I'm not happy but undastand Sakurai is doing his best I'm sure.

Also, that will probably give us another 3-5 characters, giving us at least as many as brawl not including unlockables Disappointed that it was pushed back to October. I was really hoping for a July or August release date, but I'm glad they are taking the time to work out all the bugs. WHO CARES?

at first. But then I realized this nuked my fears of Smash Bros getting the "meh, it's a handheld title, who cares" treatment. Aww yeah. As long as it's as content-heavy as at least Melee! So the window between the two games is going to be a month?

I wouldn't be surprised if it got delayed past to be line with the Wii U version again. I really think Nintendo doesn't know how to handle themselves with SSB, the Wii U needs the to be pushed, the 3DS version is really looking to take Wii U steam away, which isn't good considering Wii U needs all the steam it can get. I doubt it man. That's 3ds is a big seller it will last for a while we still have monster hunter 4 coming to 3ds Wow, you really misheard that....

Was hoping for real-world summer, but I can live with this, since it may allow for polish, & getting things as near to perfect as possible. Still not great, releasing that close to WU, which will probably be out before the year's end.

So excited to finally have a hand held version of super smash bros. Just wish the game could come out sooner, If the game had any bugs they could just give it an update like the updates for Mario kart 7 & Pokemon X&Y. Darn it!
