The Wii U and 3DS versions of Super Smash Bros are fairly similar, boasting identical rosters of characters and many of the same features.

There are plenty of differences, however, with more being revealed every day via posts on the Miiverse Forums. Many of these come in the form of new game modes for the Wii U version, or changes to the existing modes on 3DS.
One such new mode is Smash Tour, in a way replacing 3DS's Smash Run. Part Super Smash Bros, part Mario Party, Smash Tour allows players to traverse a game board and collect powerups than can be used in a final battle.

Series director Masahiro Sakurai revealed more about Smash Tour in today's post, though he tried not to spoil the mode.An additional picture he posted in the comments with an added description did reveal some mechanics-here's what he said in full:
"Smash Tour is really hard to explain in words--it's tough to give out guidance tips with such limited space to type!! So I'll stop myself from saying too much--just try playing this mode three times with your friends. Smash Bros. will definitely feel even more like a party if you try this out."
"There are three types of game boards. If you turn on the Custom Fighters option, the fighters will be preset with custom special moves. The number on a fighter's portrait on the game board indicates which custom move set that fighter is using--this also adds to the randomness of this mode."
