Nintendo president Satoru Iwata delivered the surprising news last night that Namco Bandai would be playing a significant role in the next Smash Bros. entry as one of its main developers.

There are some franchise followers out there who weren’t pleased with the announcement. One person went as far as to send an angry tweet to Masahiro Sakurai, writing that Namco Bandai is “incompetent”. The fan additionally said that Sakurai shouldn’t be involved with the development process.

Unsurprisingly, Sakurai wasn’t amused with the comments. He responded with the following:

“Knock off looking down on them with narrow-minded thinking.”

This is a very unconventional move for the Smash Bros. series and Nintendo as a whole, but we might as well give the project a chance, right? I mean, we don’t even know anything about the Wii U/3DS games yet.

Animal Crossing: Jump Out is releasing in Japan this fall, but not in North America and Europe.

Concerning Europe in particular, it was confirmed in the latest Nintendo Direct that the game will ship in the first half of 2013. This likely applies to North America as well considering the title wasn’t even mentioned in the North American broadcast.

Speaking about the release dates of Animal Crossing and Fire Emblem on 3DS, Nintendo Europe President Satoru Shibata said:

“We also owe you some news on two upcoming games – Animal Crossing and Fire Emblem for the Nintendo 3DS. In order to provide the best end result and give fans the quality they expect from Nintendo we can confirm today that these two titles will now be launching in the first half of 2013. We are sorry that you will have to wait a little longer but we hope you understand our desire to ultimately deliver a game that fans will love.”
