Support NeoGAF

[Twilightzoney]

So if Baby Mario is in play and Mario is in play as well who gets to be Alfonso? Terrible I know.

Anyways I doubt that stuff. I prefer most of it not to happen, but the baby mario thing would change the mechanics up for Yoshi a lot.

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

Yep, just in case if NeoGAF collapse due to the hype and Direct!

You act like that's merely a possibility and not a certainty.

 

[Kjellson]

Predict Palutena for tomorrow.

 

[ampere]

Yoshi carrying Baby Mario could actually be pretty damn legit.

Yeah not completely outlandish. I forgot about the Yoshi games coming out soon.

 

[Red Arremer]

Thanks for the explanation. I didn't know Rocket Raccoon is a thing. Googled it up just now and it seems really cool.

It's a really cool comic character. Marvel's bringing out a movie about him and his space adventuring friends out later this summer, and that gif is first footage from it.

 

[Gartooth]

What would Baby Mario really add to Yoshi aside from being a nod to Yoshi's Island? I guess they could implement Superstar Mario as a final smash but I can't think of much beside that given his role in the source material.

 

[Neiteio]

OH IT'S ON, NOW!!!!

Holy shit, they're making a Rocket Raccoon movie??

 

[FUNKNOWN iXi]

What I was listening to when I stumbled upon Sakurai's tweet; so powerful!

HELLLL YEAAHHHHH

lmfao

 

[daripad]

If sakurai retweeted it just means new character time!

Place your bets guys!

- Shulk (X being present in the direct and dat monolith soft afu retweet)
- Bayonetta (2 being present im the direct and those PG people retweeting)
- Cranky Kong (Fucking Donkey Kong releasing tomorrow in japan, he had a huge announcement for itself at VGA 14)
- Dixie Kong (Fucking Donkey kong releasing tomorrow in japan)
- Takamaru (New Takamaru game announced at the direct?)
- Little Mac (Next Level games retweeting, beig fans and new Punch Out game for e-shop?)
- Ridley (This direct is going to be big so it makes sense)

I hope for the first three, specially Cranky just for the lulz! Believe!

 

[Tablo]

Are final smashes able to be turned off? Don't see them from the Brawl/PM videos I've seen. Final smash seemed like a retarded idea when Brawl landed, and nothing has changed that for me so far :/

 

[Jaeger]

These gifs are amazing. Make sure they are put in the inevitable New Character for Smash thread, guys! Especially Dancing Sakurai and Hype Train, images.

 

[MillionVolts]

Tropical Freeze hype has consumed my being and any newcomer other than Dixie would be a disappointment.

 

[Neoxon]

Holy shit, they're making a Rocket Raccoon movie??

Technically it's Guardians of the Galaxy, but yes. Expect a trailer February 18.

first off wut.
second of all, ofcourse they can be turned off, they can be turned off in brawl.

 

[Hyperactivity]

Yep, just in case if NeoGAF collapse due to the hype and Direct!

You forgot NPD.

RIP Gaf

 

[SenorArdilla]

Yay. Sakurai tweet. That means new character tomorrow.

 

[IntelliHeath]

Holy shit, they're making a Rocket Raccoon movie??

Yep. It's coming out this summer as Guardian of the Galaxy.

If sakurai retweeted it just means new character time!

Place your bets guys!

- Shulk (X being present in the direct and dat monolith soft afu retweet)
- Bayonetta (2 being present im the direct and those PG people retweeting)

- Ridley (This direct is going to be big so it makes sense)

I really hope that we will see any of those but Bayonneta tomorrow, but seeing Kamiya tweeting, so it's more likely to be Bayonetta.

 

[Jaeger]

It will be a newcommer. I can feel it.

 

[Kriken]

You forgot NPD.

RIP Gaf

It was fun while it lasted

 

[theprodigy]

oh shit the Direct is like an hour before NPD data
*grabs popcorn*

 

[Red Arremer]

Holy shit, they're making a Rocket Raccoon movie??

Yup. August 1 this year. GET HYPE.

If sakurai retweeted it just means new character time!

Place your bets guys!

How about... ALL OF THEM?!

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

I'm calling/hoping for Cranky.

 

[GamerSoul]

Soo the Sakurai tweet is official now?? Olawd

 

[Jagsrock]

He's coming

 

[Jaeger]

OH IT'S ON, NOW!!!!

Where is the footage from, though? I havn't seen anything trailer wise from GotG, yet.

 

[Azure J]

Needs more Takamaru and Lyn going all RULES OF NATURE in the background and a randomly low opacity'd Alfonso somewhere.

 

[Neoxon]

Where is the footage from, though? I havn't seen anything trailer wise from GotG, yet.

You will February 18, but this is a leaked CGI test.

 

[SmithnCo]

Retweet, aw shiiiiiit

 

[Masked Man]

If we get a newcomer, I think we'll see Shulk revealed for Smash 4.

HELLLL YEAAHHHHH

This is fantastic.

 

[PadWarrior]

Has anyone translated the 2 tweets by Sakurai from today? Do they both say the same thing.

 

[TheChits]

If we get a newcomer, I think we'll see Shulk revealed for Smash 4.

I don't think I could handle the hype of xenoblade music in smash

 

[Red Arremer]

Has anyone translated the 2 tweets by Sakurai from today? Do they both say the same thing.

Yes, they have been translated. It's been the talk for the last few pages. One is a retweet of the Japanese Nintendo Direct announcement, and he commented on it that it's early.

 

[GamerSoul]

I might be in class during this time but I'll make sure to have my laptop lol
I hope we get a new comer!

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Sakurai's picture tonight(if there is one) could be very telling.

If it's Diddy, tomorrow will be epic.

 

[IntelliHeath]

If we are getting Diddy tomorrow morning then it's a very telling that we could get something good.

 

[Shun]

Fuck Shulk and his Chuunibyou weapon. The Monado looks so over the top in it's initial appearance it's gross. They really should have gone with the Scissor Blade approach with it's initial appearance

Monado looks better in it's second form when it looks like Tidus's Brotherhood.

Sakurai give me an original character from X or a mecha from X instead of Shulk.

 

[PadWarrior]

What if we don't get Diddy till next week and a newcomer tomorrow?

 

[Anth0ny]

Exactly.

Two new characters on one day seems too good to be true, though. I'm totally expecting nothing with tonight's update, and Diddy during the Direct tomorrow.

prove me wrong sakurai

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

What if we don't get Diddy till next week and a newcomer tomorrow?

That's possible.

I'm actually very interested in this next picture.

It could be something very pedestrian.

 

[qq more]

3D Classics is done for I thought?

And Yoshi ain't a newcomer, so no trailer

 

[Masked Man]

I don't think I could handle the hype of xenoblade music in smash

I could be down for some of this in Smash.

what is that
no

 

[Jaeger]

Believe.

Thx.

 

[Lord_Byron28]

The hype train would be a perfect stage for Smash.

 

[EightBitNate]

I'll sell my left titty if Bayonetta gets revealed tomorrow

Xenoblade was supposed to actually play like Kill la Kill? I'm somewhat disappointed now.

Spoiler

is that the real first design?

 

[Red Arremer]

But we already got a train stage ...!

 

[Shun]

Square Enix third party character; Final Smash is suplexing a train onto the stage.

Pretty sure it was a jest.

YOU TAKE THAT BACK THIS IS AWESOME
