Speaking of 3DS, what do you think the Mother stage will be for this version? I am not sure if the 3DS can handle a stage like New Pork City.

Wii U will get an Earthbound stage while 3DS get a Mother 3 stage.

It satisfies the console/handheld motif they're (mostly) going for.

 

[SuperSah]

Yeah, I have a common sense. I know that Sakurai is going to throw me under the bus and laughing at my rotten body. No thanks.

I'm expecting a 3DS stage as the pic, just to contrast with the two recent Wii U stages.

But he may be saving it all for Tuesday.

That's a great idea.

 

[GamerJM]

Here's to hoping our beloved wavedashing will come back!

Spoiler

In my dreams. ;_;

Is this even possible with the current air dodge system? I mean, the only way it could come back in some form is if it was a deliberate separate mechanic.

 

[Dr. Buni]

Wii U will get an Earthbound stage while 3DS get a Mother 3 stage.

I know that, it is what makes the most sense. What I am wondering is will the stage be based in which are in Mother 3?

New Pork City would work well on the 3DS, actually, I think. The city being made of billboards would make it look interesting in 3D.
I'd be upset, however, if the only large stage on the 3DS was a port.

Would it, though? Honest question, I don't have much knowledge about this specs thing.

It'd be weird to have a Mother 3 stage though

Spoiler

because Lucas is totally cut

Heck, don't know if its been posted yet today but in honor of today's announcements and to make it Smash related:

 

[SuperSah]

Hardware wise, 3DS could handle it fine, it's just big stages and a small screen may be a little uncomfy.

Judging by what we've seen from 3DS footage, it can handle a full Smash experience without compromise.

Ah, misread. Some quick ideas:

-Tazmily
-Thunder Tower

You're going to be totally cut.

 

[Caladrius]

WHO WILL TAKE THE CALADRIUS CHALLENGE!?!?!?!?!!!!!

I'm scared that Sakurai would screw me over so I think I'm going to bail out on this. Troubled_Bat , you are welcome to take this.

No sense of adventure.

It's just a day.

U wanna avatar bet? lol.

 

[J@hranimo]

Lucas probably isn't cut

Wavedashing isn't coming back

Let's just deal with that, shall we?

 

[Beelzebufo]

U wanna avatar bet? lol.

Nah not really haha. I'm not as confident about him as I am about Snake or the other Pokemon, but a man can dream.

Fine by me.

why would you ever want to dream of a character being cut

unless it's roy again >

I see. That thing about Assist Trophies running at 30fps gave me the wrong impression, then. I would rather not have big stages in the game, too.

Nice ideas. I asked because I never played Mother 3, so I know very few areas of the game. Judging by screenshots, I think a stage based on Thunder Tower would look great.

 

[Neiteio]

I bet something will happen, and I will suck all the dicks if it doesn't.

Who will accept my challenge?

[Neiteio]

Guys, how many jungle cats and/or crocodile skins will Sakurai be wearing at E3?

 

[MrSaturn99]

Oh shit, why didn't I think of Saturn Valley?

Would be a great way to represent the series as whole.

 

[Starphoenix]

Saturn Valley is found in both EarthBound and Mother 3. As far as I know, Saturn Valley has remained a popular request when it comes to a new EB stage. Makes the most sense to me.

Edit: Greninja'd

 

[Beelzebufo]

Saturn Valley is in M3? Seems like an obvious choice

 

[CassSept]

In Brawl, each match had one, or more, "game series" that it covered, and the opponent and stage was chosen based on that. The modifiers were random. For example, the first stage was always Zelda themed, which meant fighting in the Twilight Princess or Wind Waker stages, against Link, Toon Link, Zelda or Ganondorf. The conditions were random too, so, aside from a 1 vs 1 battle, you could get matches like player and Link vs Ganondorf and Zelda. The second stage could be either Yoshi or Donkey Kong themed, following the same pattern (in the case of team matches, characters from the available series in that spot fill the team), although the stage matches each series there (so, if you got a simple player vs Yoshi, you'd only fight in the Yoshi stage).

I seriously hope they trim Classic Mode in SSB4. Brawl one tried to cover way too many franchises in a singe run and coupled with Brawl's loading times made for one painful trophy collecting. I managed to 100% Melee, but Brawl just took forever.

 

[Caladrius]

Sorry! I valued my pride!

As do I. (I'm so punny)

im tempted to take it ..... what are the conditions?

I bet my avatar for 24 hours starting at 8 AM Wednesday PDT that the Monday picture of the day introduces nothing of value. Of course, if you lose, you will have to wear an avatar of my choice for 24 hours starting at any point on Wednesday.

You win if the pic contains:

A new mode or feature
Details on modes
A new stage
Details on how a stage plays
A new Item
Information on old Items
A new veteran
More details on a character
New details on a move
new mechanics
changes to old mechanics
Trophies that deconfirm an important/popular character or deconfirm an item or stage.

I win if the pic is.

A Character or group of characters standing around
A pointless picture of an old stage
It's a minor trophy.

Mr. Saturns should be having coffee in the background.

 

[Starphoenix]

Maybe in the Wii U version, have the Phase Distorter in the BG that will cause the stage to change into the Cave of the Past.

 

[Son Of D]

I'm guessing by this you mean something like a Goomba trophy as opposed to a Shulk trophy?

 

[PadWarrior]

This may be the Mario main in me talking, but Mario's fireballs look fan-freaking-tastic in this game.

I agree!

Pretty nice, reminds me of Home Made Kazoku music, which I love. And dat music in the beginning bring some Mega Man X memories back.

sure im up for it but can you explain a little about how avatar bets work since this will be my first time

 

[Caladrius]

Yes, anything that would contain a character that could conceivably be playable. I would also lose if the trophy is of an item that has not been previously featured.

Sure thing. The loser has to wear an avatar of the winner's choice for the period specified as agreed to in the bet. If you win, upload an image to the file sharing site of your choice, and link to it in either a post or a private message, after which point I will have to wear it, and vice versa.

okay yeah sure sounds fun

lol good one

 

[Anteo]

Wait a sec. so Caladrius think the Monday pick will be about nothing? And people are gonna bet against that?

You guys realize the Monday pic will be some bullshit like "Here is Battlefield, the invitational tournament will use this stage for the grand finals, good luck to all"

 

[SuperSah]

I see. That thing about Assist Trophies running at 30fps gave me the wrong impression, then.

I wouldn't worry about 30fps AT's. You'll hardly notice it during the action and they're only up for seconds.

It keeps the 60fps going too, so it's real beneficial!

I'm not entirely sure about that, we all thought the preceeding week would be full of nothing, but bam, two stages.

Besides, certainty is boring.

 

[jnWake]

Mother 3 had a few cool locations that could work, like the tower where you battle the robot maid and other weird robot. Also the mountain with the Mecha Drago.

That might be Tuesday's update, because he still updates the day of events.

I still think Monday or Tuesday is going to be of Ridley's shadow on the Pyrosphere stage as it was seen in the Smash Direct.

Hahaha, this would be so amazing.

Or maybe it'll just be a message from Sakurai: "Don't mean to keep DRAGGIN' out the suspense, but Tuesday will be a BIG day for characters."

 

[jph139]

Super smash did you know
to pass the time.

Wonder if they've recorded the non-Japanese voices for Smash 4 yet... if they have, we'll know which language Marth is speaking over the next few days. Is he sticking to Japanese or following Shadow Dragon into English?

 

[GiantBreadbug]

I'm certain the Tuesday pic will be teaser ("Watch the Nintendo Digital Event Today!"), but I dunno about Monday.

You're correct.

 

[BassForever]

Any cool leaks since yesterday?

Maybe the pic of the day will be some 4th wall type thing with the characters' expressions showing excitement for the Digital Event!

I dunno, something different I guess.

Let's dance!

Should have kept that in, that was adorable.
