SSBB American Release DELAYED?

Since Sonic has been added to Brawl I was looking around a few sites for more information, looked on wikipedia and noticed the American release date for SSBB is no longer in december, it is 'To be determined'. Because anyone can edit wikipedia I checked on the official SSBB website and the release date on there has also been changed from december to 'TBD'.

I'm guessing it's been changed because they are a little behind with developing or because they've had so many complaints that it is unfair for America to get it first.

The Japanese release has now been confirmed for January 24, 2008. So imo I don't think they will release SSBB in America before Japan? Although it has been done many times before, so I could be wrong.

Anyway, sorry America. :P

Id say early next year is bad for nintendo, if they release it this year it will greatly push xmas sales up although I suppose they already have corruption and galaxy.

soo add 3-4 months onto that then we get the US release.. then add another 4-5 onto that and we get our release. Still anoyed of the whole pokemon thing.. nothign was changed in the game. the words were american and the game kept getting delayed an extra month. ;[

We're getting Pokemon on December 7th in Europe. Thats nearly a year after Japan and even a month after Australia.
SSBB Early 2008. So I'm guessing Feb or March.

Homesrfan is right aswell. My little brother wants a Wii now, so when me and my mum were down town we went into Gamestation and asked when the Wii's would be in stock and the man said they've not made enough consoles and have been sold out everywhere. Although I think they will release what they have at christmas.

feb - march woulf be good ^^

yea shortage of wii's is bad i remember the hassle getting mine.

Went to virgin since they had the better deal, had none guy said they were getting 10 in on my bday so he said he'd keep one behind for me. he was meant to phone when they arrived so we could go pick it up. 5 o'clock - dad rings up and asks why they havent phoned "Sorry we dont keep consoles for anyone" they only had 2 left when i went ^^;

Anyway wonder of they will do like a bundle like with the gamecubes.Coloured Wii + Smash.

Itis possible for them to delay america and aim for a world wide release, as europe were, dunno if still now, for a Q1 release next year =]

Lol, George Harrison is a member of The Beatles. :P

Damn, I'd hate to be American right now. I would've loved to get this game before or at christmas, it would have been soo awesome playing with the whole family and everyone online on christmas day. :P

Any reason as to why it was delayed?

Wikipedia says early 2008, which I wasn't too angry about. But the Official Nintendo Magazine says Spring 2008 which is infact May/June. Now that just takes the ****.

March, April and May are spring. I know that because my birthday is in May. June is the beginning of summer. How can you think summer is at the end of two months anyway?

Dec - Feb = Winter.
Mar - May = Spring
June - August = Summer
September - November = Autumn.

Did you people even go to school :S

I'm not bothered about the delays too much, thinking positive, they're making it better and not rushing it.

Sorry to bump but this is adding more information and I didn't want to make a new thread.

HMV say Brawl is released 25/01/08
Woolworths say Brawl is released 08/02/08
Amazon say Brawl is released 01/02/08
Play.com say Brawl is released 25/01/08

They all seem quite unsure but they have to have got the dates from somewhere? Maybe the Euorpean release is sooner than we think? Also, before anyone says 'the dates above are for the Japan and American release', they're not. Japan release is 24/01/08, American is 10/02/09.

O.o they are all before the USA one so maybe we get it before them?!?!?!

Because we get it the same time as Europe so it has to be translated into french, german etc although its not really a problem with things like SSBB as there isnt much text.
