The anticipation is killing every Smash Bros. fan.

Screenshots of the latest entry in the Super Smash Bros. series will be shown off at E3 2013.

This news comes directly from Nintendo President Satoru Iwata during today’s Nintendo Direct presentation.

Today’s Nintendo Direct focused specifically on the Wii U, so it’s unknown if the screens that will be shown at E3 will be for both the Wii U and 3DS versions of the games.

I just love announcement of announcements :p

Seriously though it's nice that they at least mentioned it and told us when to actually expect news rather than being silent or saying 'please be patient'

Man, just screenshots though? Weak

The game won't come out until at least 2014, so I don't care and I am not shocked.

Dear Nintendo: If we don't see any screens of Custom Robo or Non-Falcon F-Zero characters, we riot.

And by "we," I mean "I."

And by "riot," I mean "cry on internet message boards"

Ridley?

The big character reveal at the end of the whole thing will be... Mii. The Internet will then explode with some emotion that I can't quite pin down.


All (possible) joking aside, I'm sure many people are eager to see how the game looks. We might get a slight video shown, which would make it a bit more exciting.

Ridley?

Dear Oda if Ridley is announced playable I will never change my avatar from something Ridley related. That is until I do anyway.

^ i can't believe you managed to fit Ridley into that tiny ass avatar.

If it's "Newcomer... Mii", the reaction will be SHEER FROTHING RAGE.

Which is why it's going to happen, because Sakurai is the God of Trolls.

The way Iwata said it doesn't mean it'll only be screenshots.  Screens can also mean actual footage as well.  All Iwata was saying is it won't be playable but we'll still be shown what it looks like in screens, which could still mean a trailer can be shown.

@ Azeke, lol.

I did not like Miis one teency weency little bit before Miiverse. Now I think they actually serve a cool purpose. Not that wiisports didn't use them well, because it's great for that I just didn't care for them. Still, even though I actually like them now nothing would make me less excited than Mii being announced for the game. As long as Ridley, Dixie, and Little Mac make it fine, im good. But if Mii gets in with the possibility of someone else getting the boot I will be so upset.
