Maybe they are saving them for E3?

He can't reveal three characters at E3, that'd be silly.

 

[I'M FINISHED!]

Link and Toon Link's Boomerangs have actually not been shown at all, so here's to hoping that Link has his regular Boomerang back, I hated that stupid Gale Boomerang.

Samus's Screw Attack hasn't been shown either. There's a couple moves here and there for characters that haven't been shown.

It is good to know my memory isn't sleeping on the job.

I liked that Link's gale boomerang helped differentiate between the two Link's in Brawl, but it wasn't nearly as effective as the plain Janerang.

 

[theprodigy]

In hindsight...Exactly why weren't link's bombs as strong or stronger than snake's grenades?

Because Link is doomed to suck

I'm still thinking...

April Nintendo Direct - New Character

E3 Direct - Some Starter Veterans and 1 New Character, then a segment at the end revealing Pac-Man.

 

[I'M FINISHED!]

Now that you mention it I can't remember seeing his boomerang. Maybe it's been changed and Sakurai is waiting to reveal it?

Maybe Link's boomerang has been replaced with Lucina?

Yea, I wonder if it will revert back to the original style or if his boomerang has some new gimmick or different properties?

 

[theprodigy]

Wait
WHAT?

 

[I'M FINISHED!]

Wait
WHAT?

I still have salt for those wounds.

Marth wins. Sorry, LucinaGAF.

We already have OT for 6th thread so y'all can stop with the suggestions. Thanks!

 

[Drago]

Time to start suggesting OT7 names, then!

I'm about the same thinking at the moment. If they're going to have Pac-Man Bandai Namco would probably pressure them into showing it at E3. I don't think they'd let them keep him as a secret character that isn't found until after release, as awesome as that would be.

If you dodge the Gale Boomerang on its return it can push other characters pretty far. Done right it can even shove people far from the stage.

Avoiding it is the trick though.

|OT7| We still can't get over the surprise that Geno got confirmed

Same, but I think the one new Character will be Pac-Man - imagine if Nintendo had held off on revealing Pac-Man and MegaMan until E3, the hype would be IMMENSE.

Lana Del Rey is cool, but nothing beats Animals by Martin Garrix.

Oh yeah, that'll be an exciting announcement to whet people's appetite at E3. "Look at these characters who were already in Smash 15 years ago!"

Hey Sakurai and Nintendo do strange things sometimes lol

EDIT: Oh whoops already done huh, oh well

|OT7| Making the Band (feat. Diddy Kong)

|OT7| Escape from New Pork

This one will be great when Lucas is revealed on some insignificant Metal Gear anniversary.

Fireworks.

 

[Caladrius]

Fireworks.

I got a hemorrhoid when I read that.

 

[Berordn]

Oh yeah, that'll be an exciting announcement to whet people's appetite at E3. "Look at these characters who were already in Smash 15 years ago!"

A big trailer that shows a lot of returning veterans (with little to no fanfare) alongside a lot of new information would probably be a big deal.

 

[PhoenixDawn]

Fireworks.

I'm now expecting the Smash daily image on Nintendo's press conference day at E3 to be of a Nintendoland stage with the fireworks.

 

[Meesh]

OT 6: Nerfed or Buffed, trolling together for we are Legion.

 

[-Horizon-]

Fireworks.

1080p fireworks

 

[SmithnCo]

Fireworks.

I hope they reveal the Fireworks character soon.

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

Considering the pace of these seems to be about 2 months per OT, OT7 should reference E3 somewhere in the title, since it'll be around during that time.

|OT7| E3 Megaton Bomb Shelter

 

[ffdgh]

Fireworks.

Mii's final smash.

 

[I'M FINISHED!]

Nintendo is going to fire pieces of Katy Perry into the crowd at this upcoming E3.

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

Nintendo is going to fire pieces of Katy Perry into the crowd at this upcoming E3.

Considering that her last album is apparently a biohazard, it's probably an attempt by Nintendo to kill all the journalists giving them all that bad press.

 

[BGBW]

Honestly, OT7's title should be agreed on at the time. The best source for ideas is the daily pics themselves and we have a lot of material ahead of us for inspiration.

 

[ryanofcall]

I'm still going with
|OT6| Way of the Samurai

or of course:

|OT6| Just because you try hard doesn't mean you'll make it into the battle.

or did we already decide for OT6?

 

[I'M FINISHED!]

Considering that her last album is apparently a biohazard, it's probably an attempt by Nintendo to kill all the journalists giving them all that bad press.

The surviving journalists would report that Nintendo fired pieces of Ke$ha into the audience.

As in New Pork City isn't in the game, and nobody ever has to play on it again?

What will be OT6 by the way?

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

As in New Pork City isn't in the game, and nobody ever has to play on it again?

It'll be the first "classic" Brawl Stage added to Smash 4, just like how Temple made the jump from Melee to Brawl.

|OT7| Just because you try hard doesn't mean you'll make it into the battle.

I like this

 

[PadWarrior]

I hated that stage so much.

 

[Beelzebufo]

It'll be the first "classic" Brawl Stage added to Smash 4, just like how Temple made the jump from Melee to Brawl.

I mean, I'm pretty sure there was at least one person in the world who kinda like Temple, so even that was more justified.

 

[I'M FINISHED!]

New Pork City should have had Hyrule Temple shoved inside of it.

 

[Benzychenz]

I thought Temple was a universally loved stage

 

[BGBW]

They just need to port over this bit:

Since that's the only part people end up fighting on.

 

[Werewolf Jones]

I hated that stage so much.

A lot of people did, even MOTHER fans.

 

[I'M FINISHED!]

I thought Temple was a universally loved stage

It needed to be bigger.

Spoiler

It is my favorite big stage in all of Smash.

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

I mean, I'm pretty sure there was at least one person in the world who kinda like Temple, so even that was more justified.

I'm pretty sure that one person was my cousin, as he just made us play it because he liked the Fire Emblem theme.

But seriously, I think Sakurai likes those stupidly huge stages like NPC, so I expect it to be one of the Brawl Stages in SSB4.

 

[Caladrius]

Temple is messy, but good fun. Especially when you've got Red shells, pokeballs and explosives flying around.

 

[I'M FINISHED!]

I wanna see some stages based off of older games. NES, SNES, N64, and NGC games all need representation.
