Namco Bandai developing Super Smash Bros. 4

Nintendo will hold their next Nintendo Direct address at midnight tonight, but first, they put on a similar show for Japanese audiences and revealed a bit more about Super Smash Bros. 4.

First announced during last year’s E3 Expo, Super Smash Bros. 4 is in the works for the Wii U and 3DS… but not at Nintendo. Company President Satoru Iwata revealed that Namco Bandai has been recruited to develop the game, which will be produced by Masaya Kobayashi, who was formerly head of the Ridge Racer team. But don’t worry, series creator Masahiro Sakurai is also onboard as the Director of Super Smash Bros. 4.

Development on Super Smash Bros. 4 is still likely in the early stages, so it may be a while before we learn more.
