Exchange customized characters between Smash Bros. Wii U/3DS

Nintendo’s new Smash Bros. games for Wii U and 3DS will not be capable of cross-play functionality. However, Masahiro Sakurai confirmed to Joystiq that players will be able to take customized characters and transfer them to the Wii U version.

The specifics on the customizations aren’t entirely clear. But we do know that they aren’t related to costumes and won’t need to be unlocked through repetitive tasks. The developers want to avoid these kinds of tasks as the team makes a “stress free, easy connectivity” between the two versions.

In other news, Sakurai had nothing to say about the possibility of the level editor’s return, saying: “no comment.”
