Super Smash Bros. for 3DS & Wii U Thread 8: Put mii in, coach
- Thread starter IntelliHeath
- Start date
Sakurai including characters from fan games would be a true sign that he's scrapping the bottom of the barrel.
I meant a real, official Mother 4

Just got my Mario Kart 8! So I'm expecting this thread to be very slow since most of us are going to be busy with MK8 this weekend!

Maybe I'll run into some of you online later today.
I hope I run into some GAF'fers myself when I pick up my copy in less than an hour and a half. Let me know! I go by DJIzana for my Wii ID as well. =)

Holy crap this game is fun. K wasn't sold on the mushroom cup, but star cup is just too good. Already unlocked Morton and PGP too, so I'm all set!

Also technically an OT post.
On-topic: so we didn't see anything about the Blue Shell/Spiny Shell in Smash eh? Still wondering how that's going to work.

I'm shocked that we didn't get an update on Spiny Shell.

I wonder how people would react if somehow, there were two new characters from Awakening, not just one.

I'd be happy.
People were complaining because they thought that the fact Ike was back meant Chrom wouldn't get in. Someone would moan about it for sure.
I assume it will only appear in matches with more than 2 players and that it'll hit the player with the least % damage/greater number of stocks.
LOL retailer specific DLC characters.
Robin and Anna. Happy End confirmed.

I personally think that each franchise that had a "throphy quiz" in the April Smash Direct will have a new representative. FE, Zelda, Metroid, Kid Icarus.
Yes, I think Sakurai would put an obscure clue like this in.

That's a popular theory, but I don't see it coming to pass unless Sheik and Zamus being standalone counts as newcomers.

It kinda feels like the inverse of the Ness/Lucas situation from the Dojo days. Back then, it seemed like the newcomer Lucas was an exact clone of the veteran Ness, and people assumed that Ness had no chance because of that. Now, it seems like the potential newcomer Chrom would be nothing more than an exact clone of veteran Ike, and, since Ike has already been confirmed, people are now acting like Chrom has no chance in hell.
Chrom ain't getting in. If you're really expecting a FE newcomer, smart money's on Robin, though I'm still thinking that it's going to be just Marth and Ike again.
Hey, Nintendo has to get caught up to the 21st century sooner or later...

imagine how much whining about "more blue hair sword wielders" there would be if Chrom and Lucina were separate newcomers
I feel like we've had this debate twenty times already, but the "smart money" is definitely on Chrom.
Ok then. Wanna avatar bet?
I'm not even as hardcore "Chrom Only" as Ryce is and I know that he's the favorite to take the FE:Awakening newcomer role. People love them some main characters and coming off the game that "Saved the series" there's no shortage of defense that make him the most likely pick.
I'm just hoping for the Sakurai Clause* to kick in myself.

Just finished watching the Smash Documentary, that was surprisingly entertaining.

Betting on Chrom would be the easiest Avatar bet ever, although it has competition with that guy who bet that Palutena won't be in the game.

Can we expect pixel versions of the challengers? Or at least prog, D1, Scar and Geoff?
...someone actually took this one? :lol

The guy was betting that she wouldn't be in and wanted bets for the opposite, a lot of people took it haha
Fantastic. Can't wait til kotaku runs an article on these
Yeah, i'm on episode 3 (haven't had much time), but it's pretty well made. I'd love someone to go back in and edit people's names in every time someone is talking so I know who most of them are. Thanks to the smash tournament trailer, I know a few of them, but not all. Even though they sometimes say their names, it's hard to remember.

There were like five people accepting it in a row, lol.
He deserved it though. Only idiots make bets they know they'll lose.

You better not pout, I'm tellin' you why
Sak'rai Clause is comin' to town
He's making a list and checking it twice
Gonna find out whose tier is too nice
Sak'rai Clause is comin' to town
He laughs when you are tripping
He loves it when he trolls
He'll subvert expectations
Just because that's how he rolls
We never hold back, keep our hopes sky high
Then we get a pic of a cave, and just sigh
Sak'rai Clause is comin' to town
With Pac-Men and Miis and maybe some Chroms
Palutenas, and Shulk, who's a Homs
Sak'rai Clause is comin' to town
Villager's in - yes, he got the gig
Ridley's still out 'cause he's just too big
Sak'rai Clause is comin' to town
Then all the kids on Smashboards will demand Jiggly
They'll mark ev-e-ry stage "banned" and only play "For Glory"
Prepare for a bout, let's watch the fur fly
And be sure to thank Mister Sakurai

Keep in mind that the players will get some chance to practice with the game beforehand as well. I'm sure that getting a feel for characters might change some players' minds on who they want to use.
Oh, I had no idea. That's awesome, I really want to see that new down special in action.
