New Super Luigi U is now available for purchase on the Wii U eShop, though you can wait until August for the retail release. The download costs $20. When it launches, the physical version will be priced at $30.
Additionally, Nintendo has prepared an update for New Super Mario Bros. U. Users can now use the Wii U Pro Controller to play the game.
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.”
