During its E3 Nintendo Direct presentation, the company also confirmed that an Animal Crossing Villager will be playable in the upcoming fighting game. The next Super Smash Bros. will arrive in 2014 on the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U.

Update: Watch the first trailer of the game below:

    1. The conference sucked. New games: a 3D Mario 3DS ripoff, another IDENTICAL donkey kong by retro, another Mario Kart, and Smash Bros. Call me names, but I never liked Smash Bros or fighting games in general, but is this really enough for you? Megaman and the animal crossing villager being in Smash Bros? The only thing I liked about the conference was the new X footage.
      2/10

  1. I’ll be 100% sincere.
    Aside from Megaman, I was completely underwhelmed.
    Villager from Animal Crossing…massive meh.

    1. >People wanted Animal Crossing character on Smash Bros

      >When people get what they want, they bitch about it.

      1. Not everyone wanted Animal Crossing in SSB, I for one didn’t.
        And I’m not bitching, I’m criticizing. Learn the difference.

          1. Ok. You want to to see me bitching? This is me bitching.
            FUCK THIS FUCKING GAME IT FUCKING SUCKS ANIMAL CROSSING GUY?! THAT’S FUCKING DUMB NEW SMASH BROS LOOKS FUCKING LAME.

            See the difference?

    1. same here…its kind of hard to imagine ssb’s first trailer being this boring…its basically ssbb on ps3, with megaman as a free dlc. <.<

  2. I don’t know what to say really…

    I think if the characters have more move slike Megaman showed each then it is an evolution…

    But it doesn’t overwhelm you like Brawl did…

    And why are all these games coming out next year…

    1. I’m displeased as well. Well at least I can save money up now. In the mean time, gonna buy Pikmin 3, WW HD, and Rayman Legends sometime this year.

      1. I’m somewhat underwhelmed but it was not because of our great weapons, it was more the presentation itself…

        I think I should present the games in my own style next year…

        Our Empire needs a voice of doom…

        1. I never said your voice was the reason. We just watched a terrible presentation and I’m going to say your voice is why you’re underwhelmed?

          1. I never said that either…

            What I said was, considering the dissapontment most of us experienced, it would be better if I represented Nintendo’s E3 next time and be the voice of doom (victory) to make a good presentation of new games…

            I do believe the reason to why we are underwhelmed more than we should be is because of the dull presentation the new games had…

            The games themselves looked great…

    2. Comander, Nintendo just dodge the bullet by not doing the E3 conference but a simple direct show. I think they knew what was going to happen. still, most of the game trailers weren’t on the direct, so I suppose next year will be better?

      1. Well the E3 is not over yet, they might still reveal something new…

        The games shown were all great and lovely, it’s just the way they were revealed, made it seem as if they did not care much about them…

    1. No… but this game, the new Mario, the new Donkey Kong Country and others will definitely help the WiiU. You’re foolish if you believe otherwise.

      1. New Mario is 3D land, but on Wii U. I’ll pass.

        X does look pretty awesome though, and I’m hoping we’ll hear more about Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem.

        1. You’ll pass, but others won’t. And I played 3D land, and there lookeed to be some different things from this game than 3D land, so…

        2. That can’t be the succesor to the greatest of all time, a 3d land, Nintendo I’m going and crazy why would u do this you pissed and soiled on the 3d mario legacy , I hate you for what you have done lets hope and prey this some spinoff they may made the new super mario series, and the real 3d mario is heading our way in 2015, please Nintendo I’m so embarrassed to call myself a Nintendo fan after this direct

          1. Frankly, I gave up on Mario after the trailer.
            SMG2 had no soul and was a glorified expansion pack.
            New Super Mario Bros Wii/2/U was basically the same game over and over again
            Mario 3D land was slow and insultingly easy
            Then I expected the 3D mario on the Wii U to be absolutely grandiose…and it was just 3Dland with a few additions.
            And then there’s also Paper Mario Sticker Star, and I don’t wanna say anything about it because out of all of them, this is the only game that made me genuinely angry.

    2. Who cares if it saves it or not? Well you do I guess, but just be glad that its coming out man. I honestly can’t wait for this game, and it really isn’t that far into development, so there isn’t a lot to show.

    3. Oh did you get to play the final version of the game already? I hope you are otherwise you would be judging a book by its’ cover. And that would just make you look like a prick.

  3. Mega Man in Smash… finally…

    …my Self-Replication Tool just ejected sticky lubricant all over the place… I’m SO HAPPY!!!

  4. I really like to try to make my comments seem proffesional and with good grammar, but, DAYUM I GOT A BONER WATCHING THAT SHIT! Looks amazing.

  5. wow you guy sounds so depressed wth we got everything we know we was geting chin up i think the games we’re geting are pretty sweet. JUMP & SHOOTMAN

    1. Everybody just follow the hype train. To be honest everything was disappointment with E3 including Microsoft, EA, Ubisoft, Sony, and even Nintendo (if this count). I was expecting more.

      1. Actually i think nintendo rolled into last place. Again. Microsoft has amazing games, playstation has a badass system and nintendo has…. Eh.. Not much. So yeah. Dead last. Again

        1. i agree, you would be have to be a nintendo fanboy to believe all the conferences were disappointing. i think sony won e3, 2nd microsoft and last u know.

          1. No, you just have to have a fair-minded view of things. Honestly, none of them were great… good, sure… but I think a lot of overhyping was made, so I’m not doing that 1st place garbage.

        2. Microsoft had good games…and most of them were multiplats. It wasn’t good enough to redeem the terrible Xbox one reveal. They basically started the conference at -50% and didn’t adress the issues people had with the system and instead acted like they did nothing wrong.

      2. i enjoyed nintendo e3 & ps. the fact is the nintendo fanboys can’t stick by there’s guns that’s all. they wanna cry about something that wasn’t confirmed metroid instead of enjoying what we got mario 3d who knows maybe online muiltplayer mario kart 8 donkey kong hey at least we know we getting metriod in the future they even said it maybe not this time but we will get it & smash

        1. Lots of people are whining, and it really wasn’t that bad a direct, really. They just got on the overhype train and disappointed themselves.

  6. Lol I’m glad they added megaman. Now all that’s left is for them to keep working and developing the game in everything else. Since they said it’s to release next year, they’ve got ample time to work.

  7. Y E S !!!!!!!! I almost cried when I saw Mega Man. The one I was hoping they’d add, they actually DID! But I was also hoping for Pac-Man. Why did the Nintendo Direct end 15- minutes sooner than it was supposed to? It was supposed to be an hour long.

      1. DAMN , very disappointed with the direct , is there anything like more conferences , directs or anything else they might announce games in ??

  8. The overall conference was disappointing I have to say… They’d rather put out another DKC than a starfox or F-zero ? ffs….

    It had its god parts but overall it was way below my expectations. 6/10

    1. Agreed, it felt sort of rushed, as if they didn’t want to make an effort to make us feel excited as we should have been…

      I look forward to most of these games but as the excitement goes it was not what we all wanted…

      1. Commander they made me now be on the pre-order list for a PS4. I love my Wii U, but december is too far off. 2014 for X, really?

        1. Yeah ive preordere an xbox one too. Dont stick with a wii u if it wont make you happy. I feel like me and my wii u are in an abusive relationship and i need to call the playstation help hotline

        2. Well you already have a Wii U so it’s no problem…

          I’m sure all these games will please us in the end…

          It’s just that they didn’t seem to care about making any grand reveal about their games…

          It’s like they just threw the games out there with no real presentation whatsoever which makes this ND feel empty even though it was a great one…

      2. It fucking SUCKED compared to say an hour and a half E3 conference… with more in depth looks at these games. That would of been way better…

        Where was Yarn Yoshi and SMT X FE and the rest ? :S

        I think Super Mario 3D world , Mario Kart 8 , Smash bros , X , DKCR , Bayo 2 , etc all look fantastic.. But I was just expecting more than that…

        So Retro is just sidescrolling Donkey kong developers now ?

        And I think Smash bros 3DS is holding back the Wiiu version again which is not ideal imo , the Wiiu should be allowed to express its full potential without having to worry about the limitations of its handheld brethren…

        Yeh , 6/10. It was good. I was expecting 9.5/10 mind = blown. Not the case…

    2. To be honest, any other day in the year it would have been a pretty good Nintendo Direct…but we expected something super special considering it’s E3 and all…

  9. Yo simplemente estoy agradecido que por Fin Megaman este recibiendo el trato que merece desde hace tanto tiempo.

      1. I don’t want to say it, but if this is a “look into the future”, then fuck it, just turn into a software developer. Clearly someone dropped the ball, and is just like “lets make a bunch of underwhleming titles for our new failing system. I don’t even want to buy the WiiU now, and certainly not if this is what they have coming.

        What a fucking joke….

  10. Worst Nintendo Direct ever. I am extremely disappointed. They didn’t show anything that appeals to me. It is PS4 for me. Good bye Nintendo. A loyal fan who is no more. You can keep your baby games, and they all look last gen to me.

    1. You don’t sound like a fan…either way who gives a fuck. If you want a PS4 go ahead and get one when it is released, no one gives a shit dude. It was a bad nintendo direct I agree, but really dude if you WERE any type of fan, you would at least respect Nintendo for trying.

      1. ^ this. Those ”baby games” you’re complaining about are the same games you’ve been enjoying ”as a loyal fan”.

      1. Sony’s conference was objectively good but it made me realize something.
        I really hate games that try too much to look like movies.

    2. X looked better than most shit shown on Xbox one and PS4 to be fair.

      I thought they showed some amazing stuff , but I was expecting more….

      Hopefully they can get the Wiiu up the 3DS’s majestic standards , but they seem to of taken that too literally by recycling 3DS game ideas.

  11. They did the one thing in Smash Bros. I didn’t want. Other M style Samus. Oh well at least I get to beat the shit out of her and vent my rage. I guess this just points to the direction the Metroid series will be taking in the future, I doubt Sakamoto will ever let Retro or anyone else touch the series again *goes to cry in the corner*

      1. I think we all are.

        3D Mario and Mario Kart 8 look like expansions packs fort htose series games on the 3DS with shinier graphics

        Retro making a DKC sequel… No words can describe the bitter disappointment.

        Wind Waker look nice but it’s a reamke.

        Bayonetta 2 look very sloppy.

        Smash Bros. very was underwhelming.

        Xenobalde will not be out for another year and a half.

        Unless Nintendo has a secret AAA exclusive for thsi holiday season and a price drop… Wii U could be in very deep trouble.

        1. I hate how they’re not even trying to top Galaxy. Those games were fucking PERFECT!!!!!!!!!! 3D World would’ve been cool for the 3DS, but as a Wii U game it’s very disappointing. Sonic Lost World looks much better.

        2. You’re reaching on a lot of this here. Expansion packs? Smash bros underwhelming? Wii U in trouble? Please.

    1. Yeah i noticed that…..
      “Let’s take the Samus design fro a game everyone hates”

      Yeah, good fucking job, Nintendo /s

  12. Nintendo I got my monster hunter 3 Ultimate, now I am buying a PS4 as well, Next year is too long too wait even for us loyalists. More directs coming, but I need my Final fantasy fix. 3DS, PS4, Wii U, that is how my love is being spread this year.

    1) 3DS

    2) PS4 for Multiplats

    3) Wii U for my Monster hunter and Mario.

      1. I told you guys they need to get rid of the hipsters in Redmond’s tree house. Also never let third parties run your console. Nintendo used to be mean to third parties, now those guys are reacting to Nintendo. So give us metroid, star fox and f-Zero. I did not for the love of my 3DS want another donkey Kong Country whatever.

          1. Nobody asked for it, but everyone expected it. It’s a terrible combination right there. We wanted the unexpected.

    1. Before you go pre-order PS4 there are some things you should know about it. You have to pay for online multiplayer for PS4. (I wished I was kidding.) PS4 use your PS+ membership. So if you have a PS+ on your PS3 then you have nothing to worry about for PS4. But if you don’t then you might want to consider that.

    1. Punch xboxone and their staff lol. I always knew you were a Nintendo lover. You expected too much, I told you not too for now.

    2. How the fuck was it “shitty”?? Sorry, I don’t mean to be rude, but we got Smash Bros, Mario Kart, 3D Mario, and X, which all looked pretty damn amazing.
      Seriously, some people set their expectations waaay too high.

  13. Gutted.! Looks like the wii u is getting traded for ps4. That direct was shit. Nintendo hasnt got shit! Ive been defending the wii u for ages now and they pull this. Wheres the games?? A new donkey kong? Are you joking?! The new mario looks just like the 3ds game! This doesnt cut it anymore!!

      1. Already preordered just in case of a situation like this. It’s going to be nice to get back in gaming again after being in the console equivalent of limbo that is the wii u.

    1. I think us disapointed wii u owners have a right to our opinions. On a wii u websites comment section at least. If you dont like others opinions dont post on a forum. Fucking prat! Smh

    1. “Ps4 for me. I used to love Nintendo back in the day. Now all they do are baby games. Out of touch.”
      Baby games? Really? LOL

  14. Why don’t people petition them for a new Star Fox and F Zero. I’m sure they will listen if enough people ask for it

    1. Whats the point? People have been saying it for years. They may have one in the works already but its too late now. People have wasted enough time.

  15. E3 Nintendo:

    Pros: Wind Waker HD, X, Smash Bros(to an extent).

    Cons: Mariokart 8, Mario World(many recylcled ideas), Bayonetta 2(sloppy), Donkey Kong Country (No Starfox really?!?), and no in depth looks at games.

  16. listening to ya make me sick what ever happen to the fans who use to believe time is what helps to make a better game? ya just choke on you’re words that’s it xbox one still a rip off no matter how you look at it. ps4 the best choice in my opinion. nintendo about exclusive we all known this since 64 i support for those reason i tell you one thing we can all agree on when metroid is out regardless what year it is you all know you love it because it wasn’t rush just like zelda won’t be rush so leave the heavy hitters for later & enjoy what ever please you at the moment if it’s wii u ps4 or be a sell out & get xbone. you don’t have iwata job so it none of are problem. damn

  17. This was a stupidly bad Direct. I said before that I would swear off Nintendo altogether (or something like that) if the Direct sucked, but the only reason I’m still hanging on right now is that I really think Nintendo had more things to show this week. I cannot believe that this is all Nintendo has to offer. I just CANNOT. Sooo I gotta stave my decision off for one more week and then we’ll see what happens.

  18. On another note, what did I say? What did I say? Didn’t I say people would probably start jumping ship to other non-Nintendo things after today if Nintendo screwed up? This is probably one of many videos this week, and already people have turned their backs.

  19. I actually enjoyed these games presented. Sure, you can’t please everyone, but I think people here are overreacting. It’s not over yet, we still have all year before they announce more games. Be patient and enjoy life. Nintendo is doing what they think is best for everyone. If you really want something, go after it yourself.

  21. The villager made me LOL! We’re gonna get our asses handed to us by a character that looks like Raggedy Ann. XD
    I’m surprised you can’t play as your Mii. I thought that even in Smash Bros. Brawl.

  22. You all need to calm the fuck down! This is the first E3 Nintendo Direct! Their gonna have more! Really! And you call yourselves Nintendo fans when you don’t even think about the facts! Games I loved in this Direct: Mario Kart 8, X, Bayonetta 2, Super Mario 3D World(probably the least though), Smash Bros, Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze.
    Games I hated: Wii Fit U, Wii U Party

    1. Thank You! Someone sensible on these pages. Everyone is just wanting more off the company who have already worked their arses off just to please us.

  23. Apart from 3D Mario which I can understand, I really don’t see why you guys are complaining, as far as I am concerned, your all complaining for little to no reason, most of you have been playing every Mario Kart Game, every Smash Bros. Game and every 3D Mario Game since the first one in each series got released, it’s just the first day of reveal and I’m mostly impressed with what they have shown. You can’t please everyone.

  24. I don’t understand why some people are complaining… for me that was definitely the best E3 I’ve seen!
    X, Smash Bros, Mario Kart, Wind Waker HD… It was all so awesome!
    I think a lot of people may have set their expectations too high…

  25. Excited that Mega Man is gonna join. But I need clarity if Marth, Roy, or even Ike are gonna be in the game. Those were my favorite characters and it’ll be a massive letdown for me if they weren’t in it, but I doubt Nintendo would do that. Just excited and tempted to see how they improved.
