ITT: People who never played Kid Icarus Uprising. Smh

I played Uprising. Nothing like this was in the game.

 

[Kaljinyu]

It's like people forget about the Palutena bath scene pre-KI release, and all the sexual teasing she does toward Pit. This isn't new, folks.

It's not new, but when it comes to fanservice, I prefer it when the fan servers are honest about its presence. But you've got Reggie touting this family-friendly "Nintendo style" and it's like, I'm watching the Uprising shorts right now, man. If you wanna make the ass tits hot tub game/episode, make the ass tits hot tub game/episode. But... own up to it, I guess? I guess that would be my complaint.

 

[sorakirosaki]

And it takes all of 45 minutes to get SmashGAF into a scuffle about gender politics.



Excuse me sir you're forgetting something.

I came here for palutena head tilt left disappointed

 

[OricWindstar]

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

My heart can't handle how perfect this is.

 

[tim_pkmn89]

I played Uprising. Nothing like this was in the game.

No, it was in the anime shorts that were released to advertise it.

 

[Xane]

And because this thread needs more art.

 

[Axass]

The character select screen is really bad IMO. A more coloured one would've been great.

 

[Pachimari]

How many hours till the roundtable?

 

[SoldnerKei]

I'm talking about this.

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

well, she isn't afraid of rule 34 that's for sure lol

totally fine with this

 

[B00TE]

The wait just got much harder today, can't believe all the content in the game. Really interested to see more about the stuff teased today.

 

[Kinsei]

No, it was in the anime shorts that were released to advertise it.

Never saw them. Probably wouldn't have bought the game if I had. Since nothing like that was in the game, the shorts must have been some horrendous marketing.

 

[Immaculate]

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

Fuck October though.

Seriously and what makes it even worse is Japan gets it September.

 

[Red Arremer]

How many hours till the roundtable?

How many more times is this gonna be asked? In 8h.

 

[MrSaturn99]

Are there any youtube links to Sakurai's portion of the direct?

 

[OricWindstar]

Level 10 CPU confirmed!

I think that's the level of figurine. Still, I want them to at least go up to 11...

 

[SmithnCo]

Character select looks pretty rough, hopefully they change the kinda busy character backgrounds.

 

[random25]

Welcome to 2008!

Did Brawl had that too? Hahaha I missed somethin' because I'm not spectatin'

 

[Village]

How many hours till the roundtable?

this, when is that.

 

[OricWindstar]

[todd360]

Not terrible. Not amazing either. The covers are ok.

 

[The Great Gonzales]

I think that's the level of figurine. Still, I want them to at least go up to 11...

But why are Amiibos in the CPU slot? The Direct made it sound like you scan them in during a match, not at the outset.

 

[Mistle]

i reckon the background will be dynamic. if not, then yeah, it's a bit weird.

 

[OrangeGrayBlue]

Level 10 CPU confirmed!

That Lknk character is an amiibo, it may not function quite the same.

 

[SuperSah]

Seriously and what makes it even worse is Japan gets it September.

I like how fast they were to quickly flash a date.

The game looks INCREDIBLE, but now my 3DS is gonna left untouched.

Awaiting press kit and hands on. Smash Tourney will be good.

 

[SliceSabre]

I don't like how this Smash news broke and it seems everyone is at each other's necks now. Chill out guys.

 

[Berordn]

I don't like how this Smash news broke and it seems everyone is at each other's necks now. Chill out guys.

This is no different from any other day.

 

[todd360]

totally fine with this

ummm could we get a gif of just the hips part. For science. This is a joke.

Spoiler

This isn't a joke.

 

[OricWindstar]

Maybe it let's you do both. I think it's a figure because of the FP moniker.

Neat. I like that other character skin stuff they've got going on lol

Well, so this was an official render all along. I thought it looked a bit too good for a fan render. Wonder where that Smash wallpaper site got it from.

 

[Boss Doggie]

I really wish we have language toggle

 

[PadWarrior]

Seriously and what makes it even worse is Japan gets it September.

They do? Where was that said?

 

[jph139]

Oh man, didn't even notice that... shit. :/ I was hoping to go in blind, but 3 weeks will be tough to manage without spoiling things.

 

[Feltrol]

Official Japanese site.

 

[SmithnCo]

Wait until they reveal Pac-Man tomorrow.

 

[ColossalLazy]

Nintendo E3 page was update:

[PadWarrior]

Official Japanese site.

Well shucks

 

[georly]

Hints!!!???????????????????????!!!! (probably not)

Lucinnnnnnnnnna

G&W


Also, no vets announced yet

 

[leroidys]

These look amazing goddamn. Cool that they made a different cover for each.

 

[Mr. Smiley]

nintendo you so cray

 

[The Great Gonzales]

Oh man, didn't even notice that... shit. :/ I was hoping to go in blind, but 3 weeks will be tough to manage without spoiling things.

Myself, I don't care about spoilers; it's all a matter of petty jealousy that they get to play it a full month before me

Maybe it let's you do both. I think it's a figure because of the FP moniker.

Yeah, but in the P4 slot it says "scan your Amiibo." Maybe you can toggle between Amiibos and CPUs just by clicking in that area or something. I'm probably overthinking this.

 

[PfantzyPantz]

I really wish we have language toggle

same, would be really lame to have to buy a jp wii u to play it with japanese voices.

 

[SoldnerKei]

ummm could we get a gif of just the hips part. For science. This is a joke.

Spoiler

This isn't a joke.

see, this is why we need more shit like this in games, for science

#TeamReal won today, real victory

 

[tim_pkmn89]

Never saw them. Probably wouldn't have bought the game if I had. Since nothing like that was in the game, the shorts must have been some horrendous marketing.

They showed other aspects of Pit and Palutena's lives. Not all marketing has to be directly about the game. Food tie-ins for instance.

 

[Kaljinyu]

I don't like how this Smash news broke and it seems everyone is at each other's necks now. Chill out guys.

I only mean to be at my own neck. Plus I'm trying to make sure I don't get banned or something after only just getting here. It's just a question that bugs me from time to time. I'm not debating on whether or not the fanservice should be there, I'm asking how honest Nintendo is being about the fanservice. Honesty about fanservice is one of my personal pet peeves, don't mind me.

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

They do? Where was that said?

Japanese site. September 13.

 

[Kurtofan]

What's the music playing during the Mii Fighter trailer? Original?

Honesty? Is Nintendo lying and claiming they're not boobs or something?

 

[Mistle]

i didn't really grasp exactly how the figurines worked with smash bros. what did they save exactly? just custom move sets or was there more to it than that?

 

[Immaculate]

EVERYONE START LOOKING FOR HANDS ON PREVIEWS AND SHOW FLOOR FOOTAGE
