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

I will try out Wii Fit Trainer first, and I will main her. ZSS second, though.
 
Also have we verified at all whether Villager can pocket Final Smash projectiles?

Further, as for Ridley, I don't think we'll see him in a trailer, just because he's likely a secret character if a character at all.

I hope so. I'd rather they just deconfirm Ridley proper rather than keep teasing us about it.
That way the PM team can start working on him... 0_0

It's gotta be Mario. I will get the game and play through a match every character in order first and foremost. It's what I did with Brawl.

We need a Flipnote stage.

And a release for the new platforms.

Man I am going to have such a hard time deciding who to play first. I'll probably sit there for twenty minutes making my friends wait while they have their characters picked in ten seconds.
 
With Brawl I used Zelda first at a normal tourney, then sadly Wario at a gamestop tourney that made us use random. 2 Launch tourneys in one day was so good.
 
Lol Smash Brothers 4 was on At Midnight.

"New characters Yoshi and Zero Suit Samus"

"For the first time ever Charizard is a playable video-game character"

What were these Gamestop tourneys like, lol
what if Nintendo hosted a giant one for SSB4 launch
 
Donkey Kong first, then Bowser. Afterward Little Mac, Dixie and Sukapon and Ridley(by some miracle).

Something about the "blandness" of DK just fits my style so well. Maybe because he is my absolute favorite Nintendo character but being an unflashy character really sits well with me. Like Jigglypuff, if you get good with him no body sees it coming until you get 3 stocked in 30 seconds or less.

Only thing though, when we inevitably play online together if one you tells me you won't play me because I use a low tier character I swear...

Nintendo should host monthly tournaments at the Nintendo World Store. They should straight up hire Prog and D1 to do commentary with no cursing or "naughty" innuendos. And then stream it on their site, on Twitch, and on every Wii U and 3DS. Every month.

Simply having a stage hazard toggle wouldn't have helped, either, as a ton of stages would still have to be banned. The Boxing Ring, for instance, has no stage hazards but would still need a ban because of walkoffs. Spear Pillar would still be a bad stage for competitive play even without its stage hazards because of the tunnel underneath the stage. Having FD versions at least makes 99% of stages playable.

I'm hoping they tweak the FD versions before release and add platforms to, say, 1/2 to 2/3 of them in various configurations. The idea they have is sound - it's effectively the same kind of thing Project M did to its first page of stages, after all. They just need to have stages with platforms since, well, FD isn't the be all and end all of competitive play and makes things over-centralized on certain characters that are fast and/or have projectiles.

Oh i know there would still be some stages that would be banned but when used with the apparent new first to x amount of kills that would then force players on a stage like spear pillar to fight rather than run away underneath the stage.

It's specifically the idea of Final destination as the solution to all competitive smash that i dislike, it feels like he went to a tournament or something and saw FD being used a lot and decided that's what the competitive scene wants FD all the time every time...

ahahahaahaha
.....
now I'm sad because I know this will never happen :(
 
Sakurai said he waited this long to announce Yoshi because of the overhaul he got. This makes me think some of the veterans we still have yet to see might be very different too. Hopefully Ganondorf gets an entirely new moveset. Falco (and Wolf) could use a new Final Smash too.

This was going to be me, but Nintendo ruined everything by making the 3DS version release first.

When I finally sit down to do a 4 player match of Smash U on the big screen all the excitement of the new characters will be long gone an it's really killed my hype.

I'm guessing they're just secret characters.

I guess I am the only one who wants to try WFT lol

WFT's kind of an interesting character to me, I'm glad she's in the game for the sheer weirdness factor but her actual playstyle to me just looks kinda eh, definitely the least interesting of the newcomers in terms of the way she actually plays to me.
 
Who I'll try out first will depend on who is selectable at the beginning. If possible I'll go with WFT or Villager.

Yeah it bugs me too, he's SO CLOSE to an amazing breakthrough for competitive play. Where the breakthrough is basically "copy Project M", but still. Again, I am crossing my fingers HARD that he sees some of the backlash/constructive criticism and adjusts the FD versions before final release.

I also hope that the first to x kills isn't the online mode of choice because bleh. Why not just make it stock it's so much better forever come ON guys.

This is a good point. Oh well, I'll probably just be sitting with three friends on launch day each with a 3DS and still making them wait.

Then don't play the Final Destination mode. Simple as that :)

Personally, I burst out laughing at that mode. I love the absurdity of it. Final Destination/No items has been a huge thing I have seen with Smash since Melee.
 
I still plan on maining Mario and Mega Man. But I think I may add Greninja to my subs (Luigi,Pit, Bowser). He looks awesome and caused me to get Pokemon Y today. Now I need to make my Frogadier evolve.

It just bugs me that what should have, could have, (still might be please based Sakurai), been an absolutely wonderful mode that could help push the competitive scene in a positive direction and show Sakurai caring about all players was instead almost a parody of said competitive scene.

Or Sakurai catering to competitive try-hards from Brawl's online, I guess?

If you want to play for glory then you have to play FD.

If it's by yourself then you can turn of items sure but stage hazards then become an issue. Simply having the option to turn them off rather than this all FD for everything is a lot more logical in my opinion. It seems like he's being different for the sake of being different.

Perhaps. I still argue that navigating stage hazards and items show the true skill of a player, anyway.

A truly skilled player navigates random chance and still comes out victorious, they don't just deactivate random chance.

knowing your opinions on competitive Pokemon, I am roughly 0% shocked at your comments

and lol at a "truly skilled player", as if the top Melee/Brawl/Project M pros right now wouldn't roll over anyone else in their respective game under any format (other than maybe random character selection LOL)
