A brand new report has appeared online with a fresh potential release date for Super Smash Bros. on the Wii U, this time in the form of a store pre-order card that advertises a November 21 debut for the new game.

Super Smash Bros. is eagerly awaited by millions of Nintendo 3DS and Wii U owners this fall, but right now the game only has a release date for the handheld platform, on which it will debut next month.

After confirming that a special demo is also going to debut onto the 3DS at the end of the week, on November 19, Nintendo is preparing to focus on the Wii U edition of Super Smash Bros., which still has a loose end of 2014 release period.

Now, a new report has appeared online, via NeoGAF, in the form of a pre-order card from a North American retailer that advertises the actual release date for Super Smash Bros. for Wii U.

According to the card, the new game is set to appear on November 21, just one week ahead of Black Friday and right on the same day as Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire for the 3DS.

Bear in mind that the date has yet to be confirmed by Nintendo, but considering its proximity, you can expect an announcement sooner rather than later.
