Update: Official patch notes:
– Game balance adjusted
– Adjustments have also been made to make for a more pleasant gaming experience
* Replays stored up with the previous version (version 1.1.4) are not compatible
* Version 1.1.5 is required to play online
Super Smash Bros. for Wii U/3DS has been undergoing a bit of maintenance tonight. Alongside that, a new patch has been made available: version 1.1.5.
As the small increase in version number indicates, this is not a major update. When the official patch notes are published in English, it should include the following: “Adjustments have also been made to make for a more pleasant gaming experience.”
Today’s 3DS update requires 2,634 blocks (329MB) of free space on an SD card. The Wii U version takes up 160MB if you downloaded version 1.1.4, and 3.1GB if you haven’t grabbed the previous updates.

There’s a pretty big interview with Masahiro Sakurai in this month’s issue of Nintendo Dream. We already covered quite a bit of it earlier today, but there’s additional news emerging from the magazine as well.
As spotted by Source Gaming, Sakurai states that he wanted Geno to be a playable fighter in Brawl, and apparently Wii U/3DS as well. He also acknowledged that Geno is popular, especially when talking about old characters.
We did end up with a Geno costume in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS. Obviously that’s very different from a playable fighter, however. Maybe we’ll see him in the franchise’s next entry?

Last week, Nintendo brought out the final DLC characters in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS. Director Masahiro Sakurai gets reflective in his Famitsu column with development having wrapped up. His piece is about exhaustion and stimulation. Based on what’s written, it seems to refer to a cycle with continuous updates, where a game starts being exciting, but over time people may get a little bored (exhausted), and that’s when the development staff have to think about new things (schemes) and implement them into the game so that it becomes exciting again (stimulant).
Sakurai starts off by touching on Smash Bros. DLC just slightly. Aside from Lucas and Roy – who have been represented in Smash before – the DLC characters were made to offer unique gameplay. Sakurai refers to Corrin with his transformation and super range as well as Bayonetta who makes use of special combos, gun shots, and Witch Time.
