Splatoon Squid Girl for Smash!

I am thinking we'll probably have one more announcement of a character at some point in these next few days.

 

[SmackAttack]

Villager is on both covers. I am satisfied. Well, as much as I can be until Ice Climbers are announced. Really though, these are great.

 

[Red Arremer]

Why does Mario have the Yoshi egg Icon?

It's not, it's the spots on the shroom's cap.

 

[ffdgh]

Why does Mario have the Yoshi egg Icon?

That's a mushroom...

 

[IntelliHeath]

Anyway, Tom Shoe lost the bets with three people. I will let someone pick avatar FIRST. I'm going to save my avatar LAST!

This backtracking

The salt is real

even I'm Team Neutral but I found whole situation hilarious. That Model is obviously different from what we see right now.

 

[PsionBolt]

Weird new team mode?

I don't know what's going on in this image, but I'm hoping it's something like the team battle modes in Soul Calibur or other fighting games, where you pick several characters and switch to the next one in line when you die.

YO YO YO YO YOOOOOOOOOOO! Stop the presses!

HATS!

Nintendo going for that valve money.

Whoops, I'm blind. My bad.

Oh shit any new info in here?

 

[georly]

FOR GLORY SPECTATOR MODE CONFIRMED

 

[DICKS AHOY]

I already said I think this is a draw considering that it is impossible to say either way since the model has been changed.

what were we even meant to win anyway, a pizza party?

 

[OrangeGrayBlue]

Can't say I'm a fan of that solid black background.

My guess is that once all the characters are unlocked there is no more black background.

 

[Not]

Can't say I'm a fan of that solid black background.

you'll get over it

EDIT: beats Brawl's by several miles IMO

FOR GLORY SPECTATOR MODE CONFIRMED

With built in SaltyBet

 

[Ithil]

I'm talking about this.

We don't need more of this shit in games.

Oh well, dude.

 

[El Sloth]

Enjoying the Palutena tears. More please.

 

[MaverickHunterAsh]

Yeah, I'm out. Palutena and Mii were my two big anti-buys, and now that they're both confirmed, I have no reason to get this game.

Haha, what are you even talking about? Are you serious right now? Who even talks about characters being "anti-buys?"

Anyway, THE PALUTENA HYPE IS REAL. #TeamReal FOR LIFE YA'LL!

 

[SmithnCo]

FOR GLORY SPECTATOR MODE CONFIRMED

Hopefully you can spectate on lobbies/friends now.

 

[Caladrius]

My guess is that once all the characters are unlocked there is no more black background.

Makes sense.

I wonder if the icons will rescale too.

 

[pulga]

How long until the roundtable?

 

[JStein0222]

Jose Otero just said on the IGN stream he has played the 3DS game and his preview is on the site but I cannot find it!

So salty

FOR GLORY SPECTATOR MODE CONFIRMED

Damn it, wow. 3DS Smash is going to be amazing. No compromises.

Fuck October though.

 

[Mistle]

Here's some big ones from the official media site:

it all suddenly feels so close

 

[Regulus Tera]

Then why did he greenlight this trailer? It's not like he doesn't have a say in them.

The idea that highlighting the sexy features of a character is somehow disrespecting said character is something I cannot agree on. Never mind that the short made by SHAFT when Uprising came out had naked Palutena in a hot spring, and Sakurai seemingly was okay with that, too.

 

[The Great Gonzales]

you'll get over it

EDIT: beats Brawl's by several miles IMO

Oh, totally: after a few minutes playing, I'm sure I won't even notice it anymore. It just looked jarring at first.

lol I actually had to Google what Brawl's character select screen looks like because I couldn't remember, even though I've been playing it regularly for six years. Shows how inconsequential it really is.

 

[Orbis Tabula]

Are people here honestly confused by the idea that some people doubted the leak while still believing Palutena would be in the game?

 

[KHlover]

ITT: People who never played Kid Icarus Uprising. Smh

 

[SuperSah]

Jose Otero just said on the IGN stream he has played the 3DS game and his preview is on the site but I cannot find it!

WHAT. I NEED THIS.

 

[Xane]

Here's what the character selection screen looks like. Fresh off their press site:

 

[Kor of Memory]

Well, I think I know what our new fighting polygon team is.

 

[Red Arremer]

How long until the roundtable?

8h.

 

[georly]

One of the original 13 characters makes his triumphant return

]

Also, a look at final destination on 3ds

 

[Anth0ny]

nice

some of the mockups looked better

 

[JStein0222]

WHAT. I NEED THIS.

Hopefully coming soon

 

[The Great Gonzales]

Damn it, wow. 3DS Smash is going to be amazing. No compromises.

Fuck October though.

This sums it up. Everything looks fantastic, but if the game's ready for release in early September, then that's when it should be released for anyone. Region-by-region releases confuse me.

 

[random25]

There's a virtual betting now in Smash? LOL!

 

[Mistle]

From the press kit:

i predict the background is dynamic

 

[theprodigy]

When's the invitational?

 

[Beelzebufo]

Welcome to 2008!

Yeah, it confuses me.

Damn.

Guys, where is this press kit? I want to see more.

Also, links to IGN preview and more 3DS hands on pleaseeeee

[Neiteio]

Man, Kinsei, loosen up. XD

 

[The Great Gonzales]

When's the invitational?

4 PM, PST

 

[Red Arremer]

When's the invitational?

In 5h.

 

[georly]

Welcome to 2008!

You can't blame anyone who didnt know about it since brawl's online was a mess

 

[Feltrol]

Here's what the character selection screen looks like. Fresh off their press site:

Level 10 CPU confirmed!

 

[Popnbake]
