Given that the Japanese version of Super Smash Bros. Brawl received a new release date yesterday (January 24) it should come as no surprise to hear that the game is also being delayed in North America. Gamers hoping to play the game this December will now have to wait until February 10, 2008.

Of course, in Europe we didn't have an official date other than early 2008, so presumably we'll see the game at some point after February 10. We'll bring you an update as soon as Nintendo of Europe makes an official announcement.
