hile many Nintendo fans were hoping Super Smash Bros. Brawl would make it stateside this year, after Nintendo held their Fall briefing in Japan earlier this week and announced a delay, people got nervous.

Today at Nintendo's Fall Gamers' Summit they revealed that Super Smash Bros. Brawl will also get pushed back in North America, and be released on February 10th.

Game Informer Online's Jeff Cork is reporting live from the event, and we'll have extensive hands-on with the game later today.

Stay tuned.

    How sad... But I'd prefer to get it a bit later and getting it at its best though. Who knows? Maybe they'll throw in even more features while polishing up the game. I look forward to it without considering the extra two months I'll have to wait. Heh...

    I don't mind the game being delayed for the obvious "polishing" reasons but it is one hell of a kick in the nads.

    Mind you, Nintendo America decided on this date too.

    a 2 freaking month delay? My god, I thought waiting till December 3rd was too long. This is absolutly annoying,

    But, if the game ends up being even better, I dont care.

    I remember a couple months ago this year was shaping up to be one of the best that gaming has ever seen. There have been numerous delays now though. It's pretty much a standard year now

    I'll join the collective weeping, and I'll try not to kill anyone...

    Oh well, as long as the game is good, I guess I'll live. I was hoping it would come out in December just so I can show it off to a few people during Christmas Break (since I'm going back to my hometown for a month), but I guess I can't do that.

    Let's hope this game really benefits from those two months of extra development.

    Not much of blow to me at all, since I am in the UK and was going to be released in '08 for me anyway. If anything, the delay is nice to see, so they have extra time to make sure that Brawl is as awesome as possible.

    February isn't a long time away... which is good!

    I just hope that they didn't just delay it to make the employees have time to polish of of what there doing! An extra two months can have an extra 1/3 features and thats what i want!

    Sucks that its delayed, but we're nintendo fans, we should be used to it by now.

    Besides once we do get it it could be hard to imagine something that wouldnt have been there dec. 3.

    It was bound to happen if you ask me. I wonder how many features they can reveal within the delayed time frame now. If it means improving the game, though, I can wait.

    Eh, I have my 360 and SMG to hold me over. Its not the worst news in the world. They could have pushed it back to NEXT November. Its only 2/3 months. Thank goodness I have it pre-ordered already.

    Oh well I can wait until then. For whatever reason they delayed it, I'm sure it was for a good cause.
