On that, I think people are odd for assuming there will be a Smash bundle. I don't recall there ever having been a Smash bundle for any system before this. Maybe a deal to get Smash with the console from the store, but no Smash bundle. They're not just gonna go giving everything a bundle all willy nilly. That works splendidly for the 3DS because it's such a personal system. It doesn't go so well for a home console.
@CaptainSquid
If they would release it summer or fall, the game won't just disappear to holiday season.
I heard that holiday season argument a lot. Besides Smash of course.
They just have to advertise it more to this season that's all.^^
Now as far as the "holiday season" idea, are you guys just referring to the western release? With all of the other Smash games there was a bit of a gap, not a huge one though, just around 2-4 weeks. In japan the biggest release times are right before Golden Week, late April early May, and in summer before and during break in july and August. Those are the biggest vacations in japan. Winter has a smaller vacation but compared to many western countries the whole Christmas shopping isnt a huge deal.
Im trying to think what is the most likely and most ideal time they would release a huge game like this.

A little note: expectations =/= hopes. Similarly, expectations =/= speculation. I merely speculate on possibilities, as I'm not afraid to think of them. Just because I don't get them doesn't mean the world will end, especially with Smash, as I practically guarantee that what I get will make me just as happy.
On that not, how about a penta-reveal of Chrom, Palutena, Lloyd Irving (with Pac as an assist trophy), King K. Rool, and Ridley? Now, THAT'S being unreasonable!
@Tsuchinoko
A lot people assume that all big games have to be released in that time, no matter where the games come from.
Or.. I don't really know why they thinking like this. As if the game get better sales if it get released in that time. As I said, they just have to advertise it in that time. That's all.

In japan and most asian countries we don't have that thinking, thats why, i just want to enter that into the conversation. I remember back this past Christmas some people in the forums were saying about how the "holiday shopping season" was going to help the WiiU out of its rut. I had to tell them Christmas in many countries outside of North America and Europe don't have that same meaning.
Anyway, even if it is released in August, when basically everyone under the age of 18 is on break from school and even many adults have a small break, it will be released in the west a bit later. NoA and NoE will release it when has the best chance for optimum sales.

I predict:
-the official title will be revealed (C'mon it CAN'T be "for Wii U/for 3DS" that's just LAME)
-at least 3-4 new character reveals (it IS a Direct after all)
-details of adventure mode
-some information about online play
-release dates for both versions
-A surprise announcement that will catch us all off guard (it IS Sakurai after all)
I don't remember ever seeing anything that made it seem like that was a tentative title, but everyone seems to think it is. Why does it matter what the title is? If its generic people will just call it something like Smash 4 anyway.
Remember the Japanese titles have always been generic. So far we had Smash Bros., Smash Bros. DX, and Smash Bros. X.

But Super Smash Bros. Universe sounds a lot cooler than just "4".

Does it? Using a word like universe or the previously rumored "memories" seems fairly random and not really connected to the game at all. Calling it Smash Bros. Universe would really add anything to it in my opinion.

They confirmed these to be the official titles all the way back at last years E3.
I don't mind them. I like the little 'pun', Super Smash Bros for[4] WiiU/3DS. It has to be intentional.

@Blast How would this lead you to the conclusion that they won't be making an E3 conference..? SSB is one game. They're going to announce Zelda Wii u as well as other games. You can bet that they're going to have an E3 conference this year, it'd be idiotic not to. They're going to talk about and possibly show off the QOL "stuff" as well.
I predict:
-the official title will be revealed (C'mon it CAN'T be "for Wii U/for 3DS" that's just LAME) It's already been confirmed by Sakurai, that is the official title. :I Sorry.
-at least 3-4 new character reveals (it IS a Direct after all) Yes, and so were the last two. :I
-details of adventure mode Hopefully, but doubtful!
-some information about online play I don't think so, but would be nice!
-release dates for both versions
-A surprise announcement that will catch us all off guard (it IS Sakurai after all) True story.
Bold, of course.
Edit: actually nevermind... apparently it'll be a Smash focused Direct, so perhaps your predictions could be right!
Can't wait, I want them to reveal all kinds of things! ;-;
But if anything, the direct might start off showing a character, probably just one, and then the rest being general things like gameplay, adventure mode, bla bla.
A little note: expectations =/= hopes. Similarly, expectations =/= speculation. I merely speculate on possibilities, as I'm not afraid to think of them. Just because I don't get them doesn't mean the world will end, especially with Smash, as I practically guarantee that what I get will make me just as happy.
On that not, how about a penta-reveal of Chrom, Palutena, Lloyd Irving (with Pac as an assist trophy), King K. Rool, and Ridley? Now, THAT'S being unreasonable!
All i want is goku, mickey mouse, master chief, popeye, Raptor Jesus, pichu, cloud strife, parappa the rapper, Tetris blocks, and Deryck Whibley revealed tomorrow. That and how SSB4 will hook up with Playstation All Star Battle Royale. I'm expecting a roster of 300 characters not including unlockables.
That's not being too unreasonable is it?
