I'm itching for the Wii U release now - it's going to be sublime.

Excellent mate...hope you let us all know what you think!

Only thing it did for me was confirm I was buying it haha!

Would love to but my daughter hasn't let me have more than one game!

Are there any advantages for owning both versions (3DS/Wii U) other than different stages?

You can transfer customised fighters, use the 3DS as a Wii U controller and get a soundtrack CD if you register them both on Club Nintendo.

I think I'm going to get both - I'll play the 3DS out and about, the Wii U version when at home. I take my youngest daughter to dance class on a Saturday and sitting outside the hall for an hour and a half without a phone or a gaming device is mind numbingly boring - a bit of SSB on the 3DS will make that hour and a half feel like 15 mins.

Kinda hoping there might be some sort of double dip deal offered by Nintendo.

Sounds like a decent offer, is it a physical CD or download? Not heard that before.

Flakey online seems to have been mentioned on Gamesradar, I'm going for the Wii U version so I hope its not an issue on there.

It has the same problems as the Wii version of Smash Bros.

Don't get your hopes up and get some friends round.

The fact that you can play gamecube games on the vwii with a bit of encouragement, says to me Nintendo might have a plan to make GC games available.

£42.99 with the Gamecube Controller adapter from Zavvi

Plus 6% cashback through Quidco...just a heads up

budge1972 · 8 Oct 2014 at 13:28

Now they are saying its only compatible with Smash for Wii U
I wish they would make their minds up :/

How essential is a Gamecube controller for this game?
