Black Friday is near, and shoppers are likely to be preparing their cash for it. Nintendo might be preparing for it too, as it has always done every year: selling bundles. But will they put “Super Smash Bros 4” bundled with a Wii U console for sale?
iDigital Times said that it's possible.
Nintendo has been introducing new Wii U bundles every year, since the system was released to the public. In 2012 there was the “Nintendo Land” bundle, followed in 2013 by the “New Super Mario Bros. U” bundle, then last year's two bundles: the “Mario Kart 8” bundle, and the “Super Mario World 3D” bundle.
Earlier this year, Nintendo also released two separate bundles: the “Splatoon” and “Super Mario Maker” bundles.
However, one big Wii U game that didn't come with a Wii U bundle is Super Smash Bros 4. Once it was bundled, but not with a Wii U console – it came with a GameCube Controller and adapter. Sellers have come up with their own bundles. Walmart made their own Smash Bros bundles, but still there's no Smash Bros 4 game bundled with a Wii U console.
Fans and would-be fans will be delighted if there was such a bundle. Although currently there's none, it still isn't an impossibility. The iDT report says that last year, Nintendo had the “Super Mario World 3D” bundle sold at a full price of $300. This year, Nintendo could do the same with Smash Bros, and that will be great.
Speaking of great, fans are still waiting for the great reveal of the new characters in the upcoming and highly-anticipated DLC for Smash Bros 4.
Earlier reports made mention of new stages and new characters. The likes of Yacht Club's Shovel Knight, Isaac (from “Golden Sun”), Wolf O' Donnell (from “Star Fox”), and the Inklings (from “Splatoon”) have been rumored to be included in the game. However, as earlier reports say otherwise, it would be best for players to just wait for the release.
Last month, it was reported that Yacht Club has officially stated that Shovel Knight will not be included now. However, they did not rule out possibilities of a future inclusion.
It also mentioned the top fan-favorite characters include King K. Rool from “Donkey Kong Country,” Dixie Kong from “Donkey Kong Country,” Ridley from”Metroid,” Shantae, and Snake, aside from the aforementioned names.
