First two official posters of the game.

As thousands of fans waited, Nintendo released the first trailer for Super Smash Bros 4 during their Direct E3 presentation. The game is called, for the time being: Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. The content is the same in both versions, but the portable game presents a cel-shaded visual finish with black outlines (to better define the characters on the small screen) and the Wii U version offers detailed HD graphics.

The 11 Super Smash Bros. 4 confirmed characters.

The first trailer for Super Smash Bros. 4, soon available in GRTV, also demonstrated new stages and moves that will appear in the fourth installment of the beloved game, that invites Mega Man and a simple villager from Animal Crossing to the fray. At the moment Super Smash Bros. 4 has 11 confirmed characters: the two aforementioned additions, as well as Mario, Donkey Kong, Link, Samus, Kirby, Fox, Pikachu, Bowser and Pit.
