Mewtwo DLC announced for Smash Bros 3DS/Wii U

[GameWinner]

The rumored Mewtwo DLC was finally confirmed today during Nintendo's Super Smash Bros. Direct. Not much is known about the character besides the fact that the character is still in development and is slated for a Spring 2015 release.

The character is apparently free for owners of both the Wii U and 3DS versions. Not sure if everyone else outside of that is getting the character as paid DLC or not.

Smash Direct 30 mins ago.

See, that's good to know. Assuming that everybody is aware that there was a Smash Direct makes for poor news reporting.

Aw yeah, sorry about that. Meant to include it, honestly!

I have to pay for a character if I don't own both versions?! NINTENDO IS WORST THAN THE MAFIA.

Bring Klonoa back and kick Pac-Man out.

Or wait till it's on the eShop, or for hackers to circumvent that, and they will.

Not exactly sure why one charecter needs 6 months of development, but at least it free

For those who have both versions, those who don't will likely have to pay for him.

Really hoping Jack Frost and Roy/Chrom get added as a promo for Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem, if that doesn't end up canned.

Good, now we don't have to hear "where is Mewtwo".

Maybe they started to make Mewtwo recently?

It was likely a last minute addition.... They have to finish the Wii U version first and that still has TBA stuff that is going to be released after launch as well that likely is more important than Mewtwo.

That's actually pretty damn hilarious and well-said!

If Nintendo doesn't release it for single-game owners, then, hackers will.

I would cry tears of joy if they added an SMT rep

I could be wrong (but I kinda doubt it), it's just a free DLC. You don't need to own both games. It's free for both Wii U and 3DS owners.
Unless the Nintendo Direct SPECIFICALLY stated you needed to own both games, there's really no way they'd do that. EDIT: lol having faith in Nintendo, I know better

Anyway, it's nice that he's free but...meh. Can we get some good characters? Mewtwo teleport trolling is fun but he's not exactly a character I was wetting my pants to play as. Plus I believe Palutena has a teleport up+B anyway making Mewtwo just entirely irrelevant.
I would rather pay for good characters, than receive meh tier ones for free.

Lucas would be nice to see again. Ness was shit after Lucas came around.

They did, indeed, specifically state that you need to own both games.

Then that's a special kind of retarded, haha.
But it IS Nintendo.
