Haha. I guess the guy misunderstood Jason the first 2 times he asked. He went back, to make sure one more time, and the claimed that he thought he was just asking if the system was backwards compatible. Apparently once he realized the real question, the rep said he had no idea and withdrew his previous answer.
If you ask me, it seems plausible enough (hence why I asked Jason to ask them), but yeah, nothing solid still on that. For reference, I'd love to play Brawl on the tablet screen just chilling in bed.
We asked a whole bunch of other questions too, but got nothing out of the reps (apparently just like the NWR guys), so it seems Nintendo is pretty tight lipped right now on the system. Oh well.
