Super Smash Bros. for 3DS & Wii U Thread 6: Final Destination confirmed for not fun

A lot of things people are saying make no sense to me:
3. Kirby transformations out. What.

There's some other stupid shit too, but these are the ones from off the top of my head.

This is probably the most insane speculation. That's Sakurai's baby. Transforming is literally his one thing. Removing it would be insane. And we saw a suck animation in the direct anyway so obviously he's gonna keep it.
 
BGBW or Ryce, please make Greninja Icon for OT since I preferred same size as home made icons that y'all made for me.

Intelli you win our bet. But that Smash Direct was soooooo good that I ain't even mad =P

Thanks! I will come up with the avatar.

I thought it was incredible how far Sakurai went to let everyone know he is taking competitive players seriously:

1) Final Destination "mode" for online play.
2) Stage alterations for more competitive play.
3) Several random elements removed, such as Dedede's projectile throws.
4) No more forced character changes; full movesets for all characters (Charizard over Pokemon Trainer's stamina mechanic).
5) Deep movesets that require high execution, like Rosalina.
6) Going out of his way to tell Wii U Smash buyers to get a wired connection (WOW!)

Yeah, it's amazing direct. :)

SO MUCH HHHHHNNNNGGGG

I'm pleased! :)

Given that Saki was displayed with the Smash Bros. logo in the Direct, I think it's fair to assume won't be getting any other Sin & Punishment representation. :(

and Nintendog got the icon.

Something that I need to personally say is that I'm glad my boy Knuckle Joe and Lyn are returning as Assist Trophies.

Particularly the latter, since I didn't have any hope that she would become playable and I was worried that they replace her with someone else.

Also no Isaac?

Hmmmmm.

I wonder why....

Isaac, Advance Wars, Babara and Ray MK 3 are secret assist trophies along with Shadow and Grey Fox.

So uh, who's buying a lan connector?

My itchy finger is right on 'Proceed to Checkout.'

I urge people to buy Lan Connector because smash with wifi is terribad idea.
 
And I love how the single player mode has actual Nintendo enemies. Sakurai listens ;_;

ZZS's boobs look ridiculous, I really hope they change that. The proportions of the Brawl model were so much better.

eh, I don't mind.*

*has played Soul Calibur for years*


Dang, it looks like TB won a few bets in here lol. I might have to try my luck next time.
 
Dunno why people are saying Pokemon isn't going to get another character, Mario franchise has 5 reps Pokemon can easily have 5 reps (probably Jigglypuff as an unlockable)
 
The games releasing so far apart makes the "Super Smash Bros for the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U" name make even less sense.
 
I am pissed as all hell about two things.

1) "For Glory" mode missing the point by making everything FD. I would be 100% down with the idea... if they just had some of the FD-versions have platforms. Platforms are great! Has Sakurai EVER watched ANY sort of serious SSB play? Jeez.

2) Ridley. If you're going to deconfirm him, DO IT. Don't do a stupid shadow tease bullshit.

Rest of the Direct was pretty ace. I hope we get Meganium to complete the trio of Fire/Water/Grass starter Pokemon. And SSB City Trial is the best idea ever, though I really wish it was on the Wii U version as well...

Also, Palutena confirmed? I'm really surprised they didn't end the Direct with her trailer, haha.
 
People who are saying Ridley in Pyrosphere is meta ridley. IS NOT.

Its not the wing, its clearly Ridley other m version's tail.

If you see the video, you can see his whole body pass and the screen is his last bit.

Not only he trolls ridley fans not having even the decency of showing the boss, saying ridley will never be playable and get done with it, but adds his worst version to the game. At least he did that with Waluigi, he's not in the game, he is an AT, here he is, you can now stop dreaming Waluigi fans.
Im not giving a shit anymore, he is not playable, plain and simple.
Im going to bed, good night people.

Here's what's going to happen;

Ridley as a playable character.
Ridley as a stage hazard/boss in Pyrosphere.

When Ridley is played on the Pyrosphere stage, stage hazard/boss is replaced with Meta Ridley, just like Train Driver Link in the Spirit Train Stage.

Deal?
 
Disregarding the Ridley troll and the possibility of two ridleys appearing, although very unlikely at this point, another thing we have to consider is that Ridley's main argument for getting in was being the best 2nd Metroid rep., and that MEtroid needed a new rep

ZSS is now in
 
Can't wait for a Sheik vs. Greninja fight! That's going to be quite the showdown!

Wow, what a direct huh!?

So I guess the faithfuls holding out for an early release (myself included) were right along with those expecting an end of year release

I haven't gone back and read the past 20 pages but have we speculated why the delay for Wii U version? Will they be adding one or multiple substantial other modes that will be Wii U version exclusive like Smash Run on 3DS version?
 
Maybe Ridley can still come, we only saw the shadow of A Ridley, probs Other M Ridley, True Ridley might still come, right guys???
 
Meganium is one of the stupidest looking Pokémon. I'd be pretty annoyed if it got a spot on the roster.

I like the idea of them incorporating the feedback they get from the 3DS version into the Wii U version to help make it better that's been passed around.
 
What features have they announced for friend play?

Right now general online mode is looking really archaic, little better than Brawl.

I would say this compares very poorly to most popular online games. Seriously surprised they didn't put in matchmaking rooms/lobbies to join.

When Ridley joins the battle, Alfonzo is in charge.
Alfonzo: "Leave it to me!"
 
I love how ZSS was given bigger breasts, so now she is part of the Soul Calibur trend.

I haven't been following Smash or the Wii U at all in the past year. Will the game have an online ranking system and are they going to be taking matchmaking seriously? I'm really hoping that netcode is actually substantially improved from the abomination that Smash Bros Brawl was..
Yes.

What are you looking for? Fully customizable matches with friends, and it's not anonymous anymore.
 
3 things:

1) YOSHI! Finally! And with no annoying baby, too!
2) DK has his signature roll for his dash attack!
3) I am really curious as to how customizable movesets will affect tournaments.

Let's just say Glory mode is severely lacking from what they've announced so far...
 
wheres all the costumes hype!?

costumes, costumes, costumes... (if little mac can have it, everyone can!?)
The fact Little Mac has a Wire Frame alt based on the arcade original is such a cool feature. I'm hoping we'll see more, especially since Wii Fit Trainer is confirmed to have the Male alt now as well, putting that to rest.

Also, seeing Balloon Fight has me excited we'll see more classic games like that & Donkey Kong's 50mm get put in as stages.
 
I haven't gone back and read the past 20 pages but have we speculated why the delay for Wii U version?

I think it's because releasing BOTH Mario Kart 8 AND Smash U would be too much for the summer. You never want to release 2 game franchise juggernauts like this so close to each other.

Smash Bros U for Winter 2014 makes perfect sense.
 
So can we get Sceptile to rep grass starters now? I need at least one starter represented that I really love now that Squirtle is gone :(

I'll change my avatar when I get home Batty
