Nobuo Uematsu worked on Super Smash Bros. Brawl, and ended up creating the game’s orchestral theme. As for how his participation with Brawl’s development came about, Uematsu told Game Informer:

“I have a feeling that I got the job offer from Mr. Sakurai while we were drinking. He would let me selfishly do whatever I wanted, whether it be using an orchestra or using opera singers.”

It appears that Uematsu would have been interested in returning for the new Smash Bros. games on Wii U/3DS, but wasn’t asked to be brought back.

Uematsu said:

“Why didn’t I participate in the new Smash Brothers!? Ask Mr. Sakurai! I wanted to work on it! All joking aside, it’s just that, since there are many video game musicians representing Japan who are already participating, there’s no need for me.”

Another “Miiting” just wrapped up on Miiverse a short while ago. In the latest discussion, Nintendo’s MariChan chatted with the Happy Mask Salesman from Zelda: Majora’s Mask 3D. The Happy Mask Salesman doesn’t actually exist of course (except in the game… and in our hearts!), but the interview nonetheless holds some interesting nuggets.

We’re posting the “Miiting” in full below. It’s rather lengthy!

It would appear that KAIO: King of Pirates has been canceled. Marvelous has just made the announcement stating that due to sudden changes in the marketplace and other plans they had for its mixed media development, they have decided that it is best to walk away from its development.

If you recall KAIO: King of Pirates was a 3DS title that was Kenji Inafune’s first project after leaving Capcom and has seemed to have been a beleaguered title since its initial announcement.

Stay tuned for any additional details that might surface in the future.

In Australia and New Zealand… Yes, still no date for the always bereft United States, but we remain hopeful that sooner or later we’ll get an official date on a Smash wave for the first time since Super Smash Bros. Wii U released way back in November (we probably won’t).

Nintendo of AU/NZ just tweeted that on April 25th, Australia and New Zealand will be receiving Wave 4 of the Super Smash Bros. line of amiibo. Wave 4 includes Robin, Lucina, Wario, Charizard, Ness, and Pac-Man.

These amiibo – Robin, Lucina, Pac-Man, Wario, Charizard & Ness – will be available in AU/NZ on 25th April! pic.twitter.com/NmxDxmTcWh

So far the US is currently the only region without a solid release date. So, the usual.

Do note that there are also no preorders available ANYWHERE for this wave, which makes you wonder what kind of a mosh-pit is sure to ensue in retailers once people get word that they’ve released. There is certainly still time for preorders to happen, but if prior waves are any indication, preorders have usually begun soon after the release of a new wave, and we still haven’t heard a thing regarding wave 4 other than “they’re coming” from a Nintendo Direct way back in mid-January.

Are you planning on picking any of Wave 4 when they slowly but not so surely release? Let us know below!
