That would look really weird.

That would look really weird.

Because if you guess right you can turn an easy, quick hit into a kill move?
The entire basis of your argument relies on the fact that the character attacking desires for the other character to trip. That isn't the case at all. Tripping is the undesirable effect here for the attacker. The character tripping would benefit from this since they won't be launched away and will be able to roll out of the way while the attacker has to finish the attack animation.
The point of judgement is to be a gamble, we don't need basic moves to be like that.
Tripping by attacking doesn't let you use it for the attacker's benefit like how random movement tripping does. And it does take something away from the game, its conssitency.
How about no guessing and doing that?
Exactly. Nobody WANTS a chance that the opponent trips after an attack. Tripping potentiall changes the distance they are from you, the direction they move (downwards + angle) and has invincibility frames that keep them safe.
If I do link's down smash, I expect my opponent to go flying upwards, so I instinctively jump up for the follow-up attack. Well, there's a 30% chance it'll trip him, instead, so now, i'm in the air, above my opponent, and vulnerable.
Random tripping actually REMOVES strategy, and replaces it with random chance.
It'd look weird but it would be the best way to represent it in the game.

Ahahaha keighley hosting. what?
That gamecube controller adapter... most gamecube controllers on earth are getting pretty beat-to-hell. Hopefully they start selling new ones.
This is the bit of e3 i am most excited for.

First off: DAMN, my hype for this invitational just went through the roof. That's the slickest video package I've seen in a while.

For a party game like Smash, a little randomness is a virtue, not a detriment. The game is designed so that anyone can pick it up and have a chance to win - the most skilled player isn't guaranteed a victory. Elements of luck are required to achieve that effect, and if you took them out, Smash wouldn't be a party game.
Tripping an opponent can be useful in certain situations. If you're near a stage hazard like the cars in Onett or the fish in Summit, sometimes it's better to have your opponent trip and get nailed than fly up in the air and have a chance to recover (I've sent a lot of people into that fish for a KO via tripping.) It can also be helpful if you have an item you can throw, or if a Bob-Omb is running around nearby. Tripping gives you lots of chances to get in an extra hit. Sure, there's an element of luck, and the game runs sometimes against you. But, again, Smash wouldn't be a party game if it were perfectly consistent.

FUCK YES GAMECUBE ADAPTER. I've played Brawl recently with the classic controller pro, and it's just not the same
YISS!
Is that CG controller with the Smash logo new? I wonder if it is any different from old ones.

GNNN that gamecube adapter, man I mean YEAH I get it but I wish SSB would move on. I'm gonna have to get used to standard diamond controls in order to play the 3DS one, reverting to GCN controllers on the Wu edition will end up being too disorienting. Gotta standardize!!!

Hawlucha beasting as usual.
lol @ Mewtwo tears.
very interesting. wow that is some serious knock back momentum from just a tilt, iirc. It's either that or Luigi is still one slippery mofo.

There's a way to do fun randomness; see Game & Watch's side-b. Having a random chance to get boned by your own successful attack is not it.
awwww fuuuck. now im hyped again.

I really hope this means re-release of gamecube controllers, too! Hnnnng
It looks like it based on the Smash logo! This is great, now you don't have to go hunting on eBay to look for a functional gamecube controller, assuming Nintendo is making these.

Since Nintendo is a hardware manufacturer, I would expect them to release a brand new line of GameCube controllers for Smash. Think of all the Smashers who would line-up for factory-new controllers again.

The thing is, why just for WiiU?
Why can't they, like many posters have already speculated, this be used for Gamecube VC for all their systems down the line? Hell if all it needs is a USB port then why not? Really hope this works for their future systems for Smash and VC purposes then.

2 of mine are fucking gross after all these years.
I do, I want 4 w/ the smash icon! I have 6 wavebirds, 4 wired!
When I worked at gamestop and people tried to trade them in, i'd pay them cash for them. LIke 2 bucks more than trade-in value, but 10 less than retail value. Win-Win (lose for gamestop )Neoriceisgood
