Super Smash Bros. Wii U will be releasing a few days earlier than expected in Europe.

According to Nintendo Europe, Super Smash Bros. Wii U is now due before the end of November.

Previously, the European release date was December 5, closer to the Japanese release date of December 6. It looks like the Australian and New Zealand date has also been brought forward to November 29.

We assume the date change also applies to the UK, which sometimes has different launches to the greater European or PAL territory release date.

Super Smash Bros. Wii U hits North America on November 21.
