Do'nt know what to think about today's update, while I love the mirror one they showed yesterday

 

[UselessNinja]

Hey guys so out of all the veteran characters who do you think improved the most visually from brawl to smash 4? I think its Bowser, cant believe just straightening his back out and a more "cartoon" art direction could improve him so much. Everytime we see him i cant help bit go "damn"

Spoiler

hi smash gaf, looking forward to spending e3 with you guys. Also my most desired character is mewtwo, pls sakurai

Hello! Welcome to GAF and more imortantly Smash GAF! Pre E3 Edition.

Anyway to anwser your question...hmm...Gotta say ZSS.

 

[Tom_Cody]

Ok this Impa design is great and it would work wonders for a hypothetical Smash appearance.

Spoiler

She can be a Sheik clone.

Impa has definitely moved towards the top of my list of most wanted characters.

I just had a really vivid dream that Pacman got confirmed...holy shit

Where's my Ridley update from Ragnarock? I come here for those now.

Same. Absolutely number 1, especially if she uses the greatsword. I'd be ok if she replaced

Spoiler

Ike.

I think sheik killed her chances though, so now I know how ridley fans feel

For me, it is a three way tie between Bowser, ZSS, and Marth.

Look out your window man, and you'll soon see that this was no dream. It was a trial run of the new system that beams exclusive announcements directly into the brains of customers. You also forgot to mention Pinkie Pie's confirmation bro, how could you...

Spoiler

If even I don't understand what I'm talking about, what hope does anyone else have?

Kriken's not gonna like this post when he sees it.

Finally got around downloading a rip of the DKCTF unofficial soundtrack and as I was listening in the car I was like "man, I really hope a few of these tracks get put into Smash for Wii U". I can totally see me beating down a few friends to the jazziness of the credit roll tune.

 

[DaBoss]

Time to use all the dark/black alt colors all the time.

I think this overrides the option of disabling outlines.

 

[IntelliHeath]

What if some dipshit on red team decides to pick blue Mario so I can't use him on Blue Team?

Or, worse scenario, what if my character doesn't have the appropriate alt palate because Sakurai cut the some of the old teams pallets because they didn't need them anymore?

I understand where you came from. In my opinion, the players and tournament staffs potentially don't like the update but I'm pretty sure that they would come up with a easy solution. I could imagine that they would make the rule to make sure that alt colors would accurately match with the team outline colors.

 

[Qurupeke]

Hmm, did Sakurai enlarge Samus' breast too in Smash 4? Because apparently he did that with Zelda.

Spoiler

It's not that I don't like it though...

 

[Cloud Strife]

What was its design?

Spoiler

Dammit.

In my dream, Sakurai was on this stage and unveiled a big photo of Pacman and then his alts, Pacman with different color eyes.

Look out your window man, and you'll soon see that this was no dream. It was a trial run of the new system that beams exclusive announcements directly into the brains of customers. You also forgot to mention Pinkie Pie's confirmation bro, how could you...

Spoiler

I googled Pinkie Pie.

 

[powerdrain]

Really happy with today's update. This is something I wanted for a while and they're finally implementing it. If you're playing as Bowser taking on a a Mario Bros team, it doesn't quite give you as much satisfaction seeing a red Luigi.

I'm guessing if you have the outlines turned off then they won't appear in team battle either. I'm just wondering how they're going to do it on Wii U.

 

[TriBlade]

I was bore so I made an avatar of the new Impa for those who want her in Smash or whoever want it.

Someone asked me a question about how fast the smash thread usually went by.

Thread 1: June 11 to Aug 6
Thread 2: Aug 6 to Oct 21
Thread 3: Oct 21 to Dec 23
Thread 4: Dec 23 to Feb 6
Thread 5: Feb 6 to March 24
Thread 6: March 24 to April 15
Thread 7: April 15 to May ??


Of course, Thread 6 is the fastest thread due to the fact we had Smash Direct.

 

[TriBlade]

I just pixelated it a little. Here is a cleaner version if you prefer.

 

[Ryce]

You should really take Cucco out of the OP, Heath. April Fools' was a long time ago.

Of course, Thread 6 is the fastest thread due to the fact we had Smash Direct.

so this will probably be the 2nd fastest thread, unless the thread suddenly slows to a crawl for some reason

 

[Kurtofan]

New stage tomorrow, pls

Edit: or more of the Tomodachi one.

It's a lot easier for me to think about with a simple number of days. I went ahead and ran it through a calculator for anyone else that prefers to read it that way:

Thread 1: 56 days
Thread 2: 76 days
Thread 3: 63 days
Thread 4: 45 days
Thread 5: 46 days
Thread 6: 22 days
Thread 7: 38 days so far

Fake edit: Beaten pretty bad. Still, might as well post it.

Thank you for the number of days. Who to believe for Thread 5...

Thanks EMB!

No worries! I already planned to take Cucco out of OP for OT8.

That's why they should have a rep from the superior Bamco cartoon...

NFC functionality confirmed?

 

[Samurai_Heart]

Apparently NFC for Smash Bros Wii U, thoughts?

Edit: Beaten

Oh god custom movesets are NFC figures only D=

 

[Red Rudolph]

NFC functionality confirmed?

Excited and sad at the same time.

 

[SmithnCo]

I will buy the shit out of NFC Smash figures if they look good.

[Pop-O-Matic]

Please, for the love of all that is holy, just let this be relegated to trophies or some shit like that. If I have to buy figures to unlock skins, single player events and the like, I'm gonna be beyond pissed, since I'm never gonna buy the figures to unlock that shit. And if I have to do it for whole fucking character?

 

[zroid]

hyped for NFC

 

[-Horizon-]

Is my room going to be full of figures now?

[emb]

Well, if we do have to put up with DLC at all, I'd be more in favor of figures than anything else. I guess. I'd buy every single one of them, but be unhappy about it.

I hope it's more of a side thing though. Akin to KI:U's pointless AR card 'battle' mode.

 

[J-Tier]

I'm both curious and worried about the NFC toys.

But I have faith in Sakurai

Spoiler

screwing us over.

Shhhhhhhh!

 

[Kriken]

Pic of the day. In previous games in the series, if you chose the red team in a team battle, your Mario would have been red. But now you can choose any color you want! The color outlining the characters will show their team affiliation.

Can't wait to use red Mario on the blue team lol

 

[GiantBreadbug]

I am so so in on Smash Bros. NFC.

If I had to guess, I'd say there'll be a figure for each playable character. Maybe.

I would imagine that it's more likely to happens. I'm very curious about it's functions.

1. Alt costumes
2. Stages or Character "DLC"
3. Unlock contents on disc with figurines
4. transfer the saves like customized move sets, file saves, record saves, etc
5. and many more

 

[DaBoss]

Like I said in the other thread, I won't react till I know what it is used for.

This is why you release this shit in Waves. Wave 1 is the 64 Characters, Wave 2 is the Melee Characters, Wave 3 is the Brawl Characters, Wave 4 is the Smash 4 Characters & Wave 5 is the unlockables.
