SSB4 will use touchscreen as a new gameplay element. You will affect the stage by adding platforms, items, hazards, assist trophies, etc. There could also be stage-specific gimmicks activated with the touchscreen. (such as turrets, arwing strikes, piranha plants, whatever)
For WiiU version this of course means assymetrical multiplayer, with the tablet screen player probably not controlling a character. And if he is controlling a character there must probably be some advantage to the other players to make up for it.
Now how does this relate to the 3DS version? Well that's easy, it will simply mean that all players by default have access to the touchscreen feature, and can control a fighter at the same time.
This way you have two versions of the game, each one offering an exclusive experience, without having to gimp either version. Ergo, this is almost certainly the direction SSB4 will use. (not to mention WiiU has a touchscreen.. and Brawl allowed motion controls)
For the record, I have no proof this will happen, except sheer logic.
To show I am serious and that this was thread worthy, I wager exactly 1 coke on my prediction.
