Bill Trinen apparently no longer participating in EVO 2015’s Smash Bros. Wii U tournament
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 22 Comments
Nintendo’s Bill Trinen no longer appears to be playing in EVO 2015’s upcoming Super Smash Bros. for Wii U tournament. Writing on Twitter, Trinen explained that he has “had a change of plans after the news this week” – almost certainly a reference to the passing of Satoru Iwata.
While Trinen won’t be participating in the Smash Bros. Wii U tournament, he will still “be watching and cheering from afar.” Perhaps next year will allow for his entry at the event.
@GameplayDev @evo2k Unfortunately I have had a change of plans after the news this week, but I will be watching and cheering from afar.
