'Super Smash Bros. Universe' leaked?

Nintendo confirmed that Super Smash Bros. is entering development for both the Wii U and 3DS at E3 this year, but revealed nothing more. A leaked document has now supposedly revealed that the Wii U instalment is named "Smash Bros. Universe".

The rumoured leaked design brief shows both an English and Japanese logo, with the "U" in Universe using the same style as the Wii U.

Japanese translations, via Zelda Informer, suggest that it will feature increased third party support, prompting speculation that there will be more characters from outside the Nintendo realm like Sonic and Snake in Brawl.

It also alludes to the removal of tripping and a faster Samus, based on her model in Metroid: Other M.

Regardless of if the Wii U game is called Super Smash Bros. Universe, it looks like we will be waiting several years. Series creator Masahiro Sakurai states that Nintendo made the announcement far too early, as he has not had time to even begin development yet.

I hope they don't slow down the action, Brawl felt sluggish.

Still skeptical anyway, what with that tablet controller. -__-

Brawl felt sluggish because it is. Compared to Melee anyway. That's not always a bad thing though.

More Sega characters other than a few from Sonics universe doesn't sit too well in my books. I mean, who would fit? Anyway, with that said I'm all for more 3rd party characters. Maybe Sora will actually get in this time. =D

If this is real it means it's at least in the concept stages. Better than I thought seeing as it wasn't meant to start being worked on until uprising was done. :)

I played Brawl and Melee and Brawl is better in my opinion. I think the obvious reason people like Melee is because Mewtwo and a few other characters (Roy?) are in there. But the not-obvious reason is balancing issues; characters are unbalanced in the game with some overused & overpowered characters making up almost everyone's favorites. For example, people like Link in Melee, for example. When Brawl came out most of them went for the easier, spam-prone Toon Link that was more powerful at first glance. But the adult Link was more powerful, had longer range, and if you could aim well (with bombs and such) you'd do a lot more damage.

Anyway, just my thoughts on the Melee/Brawl thing going on in the comments above. But on the leaked document, I'm perfectly OK with the name. For the 3DS just call it "Super Smash Bros. SUPER ULTRA UNLIMITED EDITION!" or SSBSUUE! Sssbsuuuey! *_*

People generally like melee because it was more fast paced and had no tripping, and tbh it was more balanced, meta knight is just ridiculous.

I think this will be a game worth waiting for.

Smash Bros Univese U as in Wii U , thats clever and catchy.

perhaps since its Universe, it will be something very large with loads of characters and customization? If thats the case...

I will wait. [Derp]

@abujaffer - Melee is more balanced than Brawl. In Brawl, Meta Knight takes over 70% of winnings and the rest is divided between Snake, Diddy and Falco.

Funny thing is, I don't use or play against Meta Knight so I have no idea what all the fuss is about. I've never had any of my friends use Meta Knight; in fact, other than a level 9 (when I went through all the characters at level 9) I've never gone up against him.

And I've played a lot of Melee at my cousin's house, and it's very unbalanced. Mewtwo, for example, is overpowered. The main characters are well balanced (Link, Mario, Peach, etc.) but the "niche" characters are incredibly unbalanced, like Mewtwo or Dr. Mario (he was in Melee right? You can tell the last couple characters they added were unbalanced as a result of the rush for the GameCube's launch. [Shifty]

Are you trolling? Have you heard of "tier lists"? Mewtwo is one of the worst characters in Melee, and Peach's down smash does about 60% damage. So balanced. And you are comparing Brawl characters via... your friends? I'm quite certain that they're crap at the game, like you are, if you can't tell Meta Knight is the best character in the game. He's got freaking disjointed moves that all come out almost immediately, the best recovery in the game (5 jumps, slow falling speed, 2 glides and every one of his specials can be used to recover.) his down smash comes out on frame 4 and has ridiculous kill power, forward tilt walls everything in the game... Dude, Meta Knight is so broken, even his shit jab isn't even useless. If you respond with something dumb like "but mk isn't broken because my friends don't use him and we liek items on big blue" them gtfo plz.

@Kurogane Never played against Meta Knight is all I'm saying. I'm not saying he isn't overpowered, just that I didn't have any experience against him. Overreacted much? Not to mention I could smite your buttocks anyday in SSB you over-pompous kid.

And you made my point perfectly with that first sentence; even though I was apparantly wrong about Mewtwo (not going to research if you're right or not, but either way guess we can't all be right can we?), you made it perfectly clear Melee is unbalanced. [Facepalm]

While I'm at it...
