According to Nintendo of Japan‘s Twitter, The Japanese demo for Super Smash Bros. for 3DS is being pulled from the eShop on October 31st. No word yet on if other regions are going to follow, but this isn’t too surprising given that the bulk of marketing for both games has already and both versions are almost widely available

Super Smash Bros. for 3DS update 1.0.3 available now

Posted on 10 years ago by Jarop(@gamrah) in 3DS, News | 2 Comments

A new update for Super Smash Bros. for 3DS is now available, though going by the released changelog for the patch the changes seem relatively minor. The update comes in at 762 blocks and hides Conquest Mode results during an event so players can’t see what side is currently winning, as well as adding a number of ‘various fixes’. If this ends up amounting to anything more than stability and minor adjustments we’ll update the post accordingly!
