Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS is scheduled for release this summer, while its Wii U counterpart will arrive this winter. Best Buy shoppers in the U.S. will be able to get their hands on the game next week during E3 2014. Nintendo will also sponsor a Super Smash Bros. for Wii U tournament next week at E3, where contestants will be able to play with Nintendo GameCube controllers, thanks to a new peripheral.

Last month, the managing director of Nintendo France said that the Wii U version would use Skylanders-like near-field communication (NFC) technology.
