Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS in Development by Namco Bandai

No, you didn’t read that wrong. The next two Super Smash Bros. games are being developed by Namco Bandai, publisher of games such as the Tales series, Tekken, and SoulCalibur.

During today’s Nintendo Direct conference, it was revealed that while Masahiro Sakurai will still be heading the projects, no Nintendo studios will be working on the upcoming Wii U and Nintendo 3DS games, at least directly; rather, development is proceeding at Namco Bandai. No gameplay details were announced.

For more information on the new Super Smash Bros. games, stay tuned to 4P.
