Despite Nintendo releasing several of their big name first party titles in the first year of the Wii’s life, there was one title that every single Nintendo fan was looking forward to and that is obviously Super Smash Bros Brawl.

Nintendo claimed that the reason for the delay was to give the developers more time to fine-tune the game, which is fine by me.

Pretty please, Nintendo, with sugar on top.

And to all of our friends across the pond, I again send out my condolences because I can’t even imagine having to wait until after June to play this game.
