Support NeoGAF

[foxuzamaki]

So this is from Famitsu's site:

http://www.famitsu.com/dswii/

Some of the images in that are new. There are scans online for the rest of the pages available, can't post them here for obvious reasons.

Copy/paste the url since they don't like NeoGAF hotlinking lol. Or just press enter in the url bar.

If someone can translate the stuff on the image, that would be great.

Has anyone tried translating it yet? shun where art thou

 

[Haines]

Think smash 4 fall at earliest?

 

[DaBoss]

No, they were taking a jab at your math skill. 6 (years) + 2014 = 2020

Kriken was. Me and theprodigy weren't.

After this past generation, I don't see why anyone would want it to last as long as Gen 7. Of course there is the possibility that MS and Sony will be crazy and force it to last for a long time.

Text is too small.

 

[theprodigy]

He's not saying 2023 is 6 years from now. He's saying that he expects the generation to last til 2023, therefore in 6 years the PS4 and xbone will still be on the market. His grammar and math are both perfectly fine.

yes, and his expectation is absurd

Actually I should've clarified my comment, I don't think either the XB1 or PS4 will last for 6 years nor will next gen come in 2023

I'm calling August.

Question, is famistu something a casual gamer would read in japan

I have no real concept of what famistu is really

 

[ShockingAlberto]

I think it will be their November game.

 

[fredrancour]

yes, and his expectation is absurd

Yes, I agree, but half the criticism seemed directed at a misreading of his arithmetic, not the actual content.

 

[Anth0ny]

November 21, 2014.

Basically EDGE and GameInformer equivalent and a mix of Future. They have their regular weekly magazine along with monthly magazines dedicated to the big 3.

Like any other gaming magazine, they usually aren't for casual gamers.

what DaBoss said, also remember Famitsu reviews are probably the least credible of them all
case in point:

Hyperbole much?

Me too. I'd be very surprised to see it any earlier. And I can wait till November since I'll have Mario Kart 8

 

[Nickle]

Smash 4 will be out Holiday 2014 or delayed to early 2015, like Brawl was.

I mean, we still know nothing about the menus, single player, music, stage builder, event matches, and all of the other fancy stuff that Sakurai throws in.

Besides, the holiday's are the best time of the year for products, and Nintendo is going to want Smash 4 to strongly push the Wii U and the 3DS so the consoles gain good traction leading up to holiday season.

I think lack of knowledge for that stuff is more that Sakurai doesn't want to spoil as much pre release this time and less the game isn't going to be finished by year's end.

Was about to say this. PotD is a drip feed intentionally.

 

[DaBoss]

I really don't understand this reasoning that many people use. Sonic delayed Smash. Unless there is something that will happen similar to Sonic being a late addition, there is no reason to expect delays. Especially when Sakurai himself seems to be indicating the development has been going smoothly.

 

[theprodigy]

I doubt it'll get delayed to 2015, if only because Nintendo can't afford that at all.

 

[J@hranimo]

No matter what the date may be, I'm confident we'll get the game before January 1st, 2015.

 

[IntelliHeath]

I'm calling August.

For me, September. Weekend before Sept 23 to Weekend after Sept 23 just for 125th anniversary

 

[Kriken]

I think Smash will come out in September and the usual November Nintendo release will be announced at E3. Either way, it'll be out before 2015

 

[Hyperactivity]

August to September is my guess for a release date.

I still believe in 2014 Zelda U, so I'm going to say that will be a holiday push+reinvigorated efforts with MK8, Smash 4, and whatever other smaller games is coming around then

 

[foxuzamaki]

It wont get delayed on the fact that brawl is literally the outlier.

 

[Boss Doggie]

What if it's July

 

[foxuzamaki]

What if it's July

Then happy birthday to me

My body...might not be ready.

Looking back, I believe Wind Waker was the only 3D Zelda game announced at E3 and released in the same year. Skyward Sword was E3 2010 and TP was 2004

SS was announced at E3 2009, it wasent until 2010 that we saw anything about it

It's going to happen
Please don't try to tell me otherwise. Im pinning my hopes on it

 

[I'M FINISHED!]

I have no doubt in my mind that if Ike was returning he will be his radiant dawn design.

nah

Ike will be based on Skyward Sword Zelda.

 

[Loco4Coco]

Smash Bros will probably be released somewhere between tomorrow and the end of time.

......
huehuehuehuehue

(that's not going to happen)

 

[foxuzamaki]

ike has become even more moe

 

[Kriken]

The Last Guardian and Half Life 3 will probably be released somewhere between tomorrow and the end of time.

Somewhere out there, qq just sneezed.

.

I wouldn't bet on that!

 

[Hyperactivity]

Smash Bros will probably be released somewhere between tomorrow and the end of time.

But it was released yesterday. Playing it right now

No Palutena btw.

Spoiler

Magnus is in though, as is Hades, Viridi (with an alfonzo replacement), Pandora, etc.
Shrek's in too, although no Smash Mouth

 

[Kriken]

I wouldn't bet on that!

I dunno, I mean there are indie developers out there. I never specified WHO made the games

 

[Anth0ny]

omg if this is released in summer. perfect time to play before school is back in session

i remember brawl was released the sunday before my march break

that was pretty much the greatest thing ever

 

[Karsticles]

Kriken was. Me and theprodigy weren't.

I don't know why people want shorter generations. I only bought 20 console games last generation. Give me a decade long generation unless some new important tech comes about. No rush. We don't need prettier graphics.

 

[SenorArdilla]

I'm expecting this to arrive somewhere between Fall and Winter 2014.

 

[botty]

Kojima being an asshole to Nomura in 2006

This lead to talk about collaborations, which of course, lead to talk of Solid Snake's appearance in the Wii version of Smash Brothers: "That was very surprising," said Nomura. "Cloud won't make an appearance?" asked Kojima. "We didn't get an offer," responded Nomura with a laugh.

[Loco4Coco]

I wanna see a new WiiU stage tonight, either from a character they haven't reveal yet or from a game that won't have a fighter to represent like that Plankton stage from Brawl.

 

[Shun]

Somewhere out there, Tsuda just sneezed.

Any chance for a Popstar stage to represent Kirby?

If not you think we'll see Popstar show up as an Easter Egg for the Super Mario Galaxy Stage? It seems like something that a developer might do to pay homage to their previous series. Plus Popstar would fit in the background of the Galaxy stage.

clearly not, how else would you explain the rush for next-gen stuff

 

[Shun]

Patchland would be pretty cool as a stage too.

Crap, now I want a scene where all the fighters compete in a tournament to break bricks and Kirby smashes wherever they're standing into pieces
