Additionally, we learn why Rebirth is planned for New 3DS only (rather than bringing it to the original 3DS as well).
We’ve rounded up the various comments below. You can find Polygon’s original article here.

Let’s just say that Nintendo was also open to featuring Banjo in the upcoming Smash Bros. DLC. Is that something you guys would like to see happen?
