Super Smash Bros. for 3DS and Wii U Thread 5: Yarning for Yoshi

had a friend living in japan translate the sakurai tweet

"Thank you for your message about the 2nd year celebration of the new Baruten. I didn't even notice it.....I was thinking back to then and I realized the smash bros 3ds/wiiu is coming at quite a fast pace"
 
As a joke, Samurai might include a special Reggie Mii that plays like a regular Mii, but has his face and voice, along with unique taunts that have Reggie spout classics like "My Body is Ready" or "I feel like a purple Pikmin" or "What's wrong with you?"

For only $7.99

Iwata and Shibata DLC. Think Ice Clmbers.

I saw people talking about Smash stages in here earlier, so I put together a post on Tubmlr with my opinions on uh ... at least the Zelda stages so far.

(linking it so it can keep the images)

Zelda in my opinion is one of the franchises to have had a good track record for SSB stages. No horrible ones and very few ones I don't consider great.

Really nice read.

I agree w/ you on all of those old stages & the Sm4sh ones. Too funny. You should do this with other franchise stages as they get revealed.

It has been awhile since we spoke about the leaks. It was amazing how we haven't found any source of the model that are used in the pictures. People can't even figure out if it's fake or not.

If it ended being fake, then I could say that it would be one of best fake in the video game history.
 
The crazy thing is that could be real, but possibly not the final design for palutena, so if she is revealed and doesnt look exactly like that we would be none the wiser.

Baruten?

Geez, I didn't think about that.

There hasn't been any previous Palutena material to draw back to? For some of the other leaks, the "fighter" was pulled out of some previous game/screenshot

Does anyone know of any previous Smash's development in great detail? I would've thought that by this point (assuming the game is a summer/fall release) the team would be focusing on balancing and trophy/music additions. Remodelling a character should have been done by now. Then again, those "leaks" aren't dated...
 
new candidate for most hype Captain Falcon moment ever

The Falcon Round Robin they had going at TNE did not disappoint...

DAMN I was just about to post this, man watching it live was so crazy. The lord is tied with kage, chillindude, and abate for my favourite smasher now.

Edit:
I don't believe what I'm seeing!

Edit: Damn, the regular colored Falcon could've avoided the loss situation if he didn't get all flashy with that Dair followup.
The whole point of that round robin was flash. Except for hax of course.

The horse on this has decomposed and become soil at this point.

Regardless of the authenticity of said leak, I'd say Palutena is still a likely character addition.

His final smash:
a big damn truck
 
Sometimes I wish the Love Arrow in The Last Story was a permanent item.

Imagine an open world game where you're just shooting everyone with love arrows or some other wacky emotions.

The idea sounds more fun than guns.
 
What if we get a Xenoblade rep

but it's not Shulk.

but the fluffball thingie
Heropon Riki is crazy man. He has all sorts of Status attacks (sleep/poison/stun/bleed/etc.), a healing move, counters/reflectors, like 25 spinning multi-hit attacks, and moves that can force topple/tripping.

He'd be like Metaknight except fun.
 
Villagers are similar still, aren't they?

Meanwhile, my Robin was a middle-aged redhead with low shave.

I would really rather not have a character who isn't my Robin as Robin in the game. I think that would be irksome. I also sincerely doubt it will happen, so no worries.

They've used the default white haired Robin portraits for a few random things in Japan, like the cd dramas. Kris, the previous avatar, also gets actually name dropped in Awakening, in spite of the player being able to change his name and such. We'd almost certainly get alternate hair colors for Robin with the color changes anyway, just likely not the different builds and hair styles.
 
If any character is getting in from Fire Emblem Awakening, it's Chrom.
Since I don't play FE I've just gone along with this line of thinking since that's what everyone says. I honestly can't form a proper opinion on the subject though. I'm almost tempted to consider Marth and Ike enough and let an Advance Wars rep in as the third Intelligent Systems strategy game rep. But that's just what I'd personally do.

hmmm....
Who here has played The Last Story?
I have and I really enjoyed it. Some aspects of it I'd love to see incorporated into other games.
 
I recognise that within uprising a char like Hades is arguably a big star, but I don't think Kid Icarus honestly is fit for 3 totally unique chars. 2 chars + a pseudo clone feels fit.

Hades could still be a pseudo-clone, just because Medusa is a female like Paleutana, it doesn't really mean anything. Also I don't understand this reasoning at all. 3 characters is 3 characters. Only Sakurai can guess this sort of stuff, you're making stuff up That was insensitive, apologies.

It doesn't really mean anything when Zelda, arguably the second biggest franchise Nintendo owns has 2 uniques and 2 clones, and Kirby has 3 uniques.
 
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend. I just don't think characters are picked on arbitrary stuff like that.

I'd explain why I feel like that sort of logic applies, but I'm not really fond of gut reactions akin to "you're just making shit up".

Of course nobody knows what the final roster will be, I don't like the implication I'm lying/implying undeniable truths just giving my opinion. It makes me feel extremely uncomfortable.

Ganondorf wouldn't have made it to Melee if he weren't a clone, that was specifically said in the Melee Japanese site. The only reason he was in the game was because he had a build similar to Captain Falcon's. The same thing was true to all the characters on the "sides" of the Melee selection screen. So, being a clone does matter to some extent.

Of course, in the case of Melee Ganondorf, he was actually reusing most of Captain Falcon's animations, not just had a similar moveset, like in Brawl. Sharing a skeleton with Captain Falcon was what allowed that. So, you have to differentiate between characters that just have similar movesets and characters that actually share their skeleton and most animations with another character. The first isn't very different from a completely original character, but the second certainly takes less development time.

It doesn't really mean anything when Zelda, arguably the second biggest franchise Nintendo owns has 2 uniques and 2 clones, and Kirby has 3 uniques.

Sakurai usually seems to include transformations in his character counts. So, Zelda would have 3 unique characters by his count. And, like mentioned above, although Ganondorf still has a moveset similar to Captain Falcon's, he did receive unique animations in Brawl.
