Sakurai talks Smash Bros. Wii U/3DS differences

Super Smash Bros. on the Wii U and 3DS will have some differences, mainly when it comes to visuals and stages included in both versions. However, the development team is looking to include the same rosters in both titles.
According to director Masahiro Sakurai:
“Fundamentally we’re going to have the same characters on both systems. If there was a character you couldn’t play on Wii U but you could play on 3DS, or vice versa, that’s rough for consumers. So we want players to be able to have the same character experiences on both devices.”

Nintendo evaluating Wii U manufacturing in Brazil, system expected to be out in the country later this year
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Microsoft began manufacturing the Xbox 360 in Brazil back in 2011. And last month, Sony announced that it would be doing the same for the PlayStation 3.
Nintendo now appears to be looking into evaluating similar for the Wii U. Speaking with Portuguese publication G1, company president Satoru Iwata confirmed that Nintendo is looking into manufacturing Wii U units in Brazil.
He said:
“The social structure of Brazil today is important to think about assembling or manufacturing in the country. We understand the importance of it. What I can say is that we are evaluating and studying the possibility of manufacturing the Wii U in Brazil, but we have nothing to announce right now.”
Iwata also apologized for not releasing the system in Brazil yet. A release is targeted for late 2013.
“Nintendo recognizes the importance of Brazil and its market, and for us [Brazil] is among the 10 markets with the greatest potential in the world. Sorry for not having launched the machine in Brazil for a number of reasons. Our forecast is to launch in late 2013.”
