Rumor: Super Smash Bros. Brawl pushed back to March? - Image 1Word on the street is that Nintendo's Super Smash Bros. Brawl title for the Wii may not be out until March this year.

This bit of speculation originates from the GameFly rental service, where SSBB has been dated for a March 12 launch. In relation to this, retailer GameCrazy currently dates the game for a March 31 release.

Adding a bit more confusion to this rumor is that other major retailers such as EBgames, Outpost, Amazon and Wal-Mart still list SSBB for a February 10 launch. There are further rumors that Wal-Mart has already updated its corporate database to reflect SSBB's March release.

There's not other info available regarding this matter for the moment, with Nintendo yet to step in to make their clarifications. Drop by again in case confirmations are released regarding this rumor.

 » This isn't being "pushed back."

Gamestop has consistently said to expect it to come out in March, and Gamestop tends to be right about release dates.

Dont go by the website It will be the last to get updated. I would think It could might true, but I have serious doughts becuase the Jap verion is due in two weeks. I think they would haved moved it before now if it was going to happen. If they do lets pray for a demo Channel. I would also say that the ppl that have moved it to march all have a different date.... seems fishy to me.

I think its false because GameStop says Feb 10th. The only one I found that says March 30 is GameCrazy but their descriptions are inaccurate because it says that the game is only for 1 player.

If this was true, then why did Gametrailers just post THREE Japanese commercials for the game? It's COMING Febuary 10th.

I've been playing pretty much the same version of Smash Brothers on my Gamecube for the last couple days. The system and game were much cheaper, just no gimmicky motion controls that cause arthritis.

It has been confirmed that it is delayed until March.
