Super Smash Bros. for 3DS & Wii U Thread 8: Put mii in, coach

Yeah she looks almost as diverse as Mega Man.

I played the first Kid Icarus on NES, but not the 3DS game. Either way, Palutena is a super dynamic character that is an absolute no brainer addition. I welcome her to the cast.

I don't really know too much in depth of competitive smash, but did it seem like she had a lot of special abilities?
 
Played tons of Smash Wii U and 3DS already. Love them, but the Wii U version is the standout. Feels like a slightly faster Brawl, not like Melee at all... thank god. So damn happy with how this game plays.

3DS version is a bit awkward control-wise. Not the game's fault - the 3DS's design just isn't super conducive to Smash's gameplay. The controls are the best they can be.

The wait just got a million times harder, especially for the Wii U version.
 
Yeah I looked at the footage with Keitaro's commentary and Kirby is at 99% and dies off the top without a Star KO or Screen KO. This confirms that if you're below 100% and you get knocked upwards into the top you will be KO'd like hitting the sides or the bottom. Above 100% you'll get Star KO'd or Screen KO'd.

Reducing randomness *and* fixing a problem that the competitive community did have with Star/Screen KOs. Mainly for teams matches and moves like Jigglypuff's Rest (getting Star KO'd or whatever determined whether you could punish her for landing it). While it was a small problem (and not a deal breaker if it wasn't addressed) it was at least addressed.

Sounds great! Which newcomers feel the best? How's Villager?
 
I want to be excited but this game seriously just looks like an updated/tweaked Brawl thats still too floaty...

congrats, your critical thinking abilities have reached level 2

only 26 xp before level 3

I'm a Project M nut here and what I'm seeing is someone who is wrong wrong wrong

I mean yeah it looks like a tweaked Brawl in a sense but none of the tweaks rub me the wrong way at all and in fact this game seems a lot more conducive than Brawl to offensive competitive gameplay

I am in love with these Screen K.O.s

Thanks for the update! Looking forward to the GameXplain discussions. :-)
 
What's funny is that Sakurai's reasoning for not changing his color was basically because of how crazy and anal some Sonic fans are. But he said it in the nicest way possible.

I wonder if he even wanted to add Sonic in Brawl really. They fact that he was in last, his treatment and some of Sakurai's comments, really makes me wonder, even if I hate him now.

Could you hear any music or will you be saving that for GameXplain?

I could totally get that. lol Though, those people should be happy since it looks like his colors are based on other Sonic characters. I saw one for Sliver, and another for Darkspine Sonic.
 
Man I'm loving the stages but they are looking big, I hope the competitive smash community isn't ban hammer happy this time around.
 
Since Smash Bros 3DS got pushed up to October and the Wii U version is their holiday game, does anyone think that the game will be released in November and that the game was delayed in order to make the window of release more narrow?

Releasing a their big game for the year in December doesn't strike me as particularly good for sales prospects.
 
Midna being shown in Hyrule Warriors right now, makes me sad she never made it into Smash. I know she's a one-off, but she's such a cool design.

Sheik is technically a one off as well, I really don't see anything wrong with one offs. I see something wrong with people who think Sakurai is obligated to maintain the same roster plus new characters in a series that is going over 2 games.
