It's a very broad and generalized question, so allow me to explain before you jump all over me.
The JP site is updated with, for the most part the same content as the US site is, and at relatively the very same moment. However, two things...
I'm also confused that the GC controller adapter announcement was not internationally based, yet only in English and aimed specifically (it would seem) at the NA/US-based Smash community. I'm not trying to be racist or something, I just get this weird feeling like America is the "target" market here. Like, they recognize that the potential for financial success is much greater targeting America because it's bigger or something.
"Um, here in Japan we want to play Smash 4 early too!", is kind of what runs through my head. "Uh, we care about an official GC controller adapter too!", as well. It just kinda makes me wonder. Maybe even concerned? Like...is that GC adapter only going to be released in the US and I'll have to import it? Will Japan get a demo at all before the release?
Feel free to tell me I'm over-thinking it, I'd like that to be the case, but does anyone else kind of get the feeling like the needs of the American-based Smash community are driving the development and advertisement of this game?

- There was no official Nintendo JP announcement correlating to the release of the official Wii U GCC adapter.
- We are not getting a playable demo of the game at any period during the time that the North American territory will have nation-wide playable demos, along with an exciting tournament with hand-picked players/commentators.
