Super Smash Bros. for 3DS & Wii U Thread 10: Against the Odds, We Choose to Hype!

The fact that NOTHING more was said about Rayman is driving me CRAZY

It is like he was some kind of collective hallucination

Yea, that was like the perfect introduction to a wild ride of announcements.

It was just so crazy and yet it's just there. Like I still can't believe that's a thing that exists.
 
Alright, that smash trailer pushed me over the edge.
I need to buy this game, however I am a cheap ass gamer.
Where can I buy it for the best price or should I wait for a deal or something?
 
I think with the POTD earlier and the trailer reveal today just opens a wide possibility of things we never thought would happen. From last weekend we were pretty sure that it will be Shulk that will be revealed. Ray Man's trophy then shook up that certainty. Then this trailer just flat out destroyed our expectations. So at this point, anything just can happen.

On a side note, with 4 playable characters Fire Emblem instantly becomes one of the most represented franchises in Smash, and at this point only the Mario universe has greater than 4 reps at the current standing.

Are you speaking of a Wii U, Smash U, or both?

There will absolutely be a bundle available around Christmas time.
 
Oh definitely, it could go either way. It's just weird to me that the first newcomer we've seen that isn't a "real" new character was also revealed alongside an actual newcomer, was lumped into that artwork, and doesn't follow the normal rules of being a newcomer. We'll just have to wait and see, there's no way to tell either way.

Because she is a clone and wasn't given the same dev time or precedence as Robin, who has a new moveset?

I'm happy to finally see such a wide variety of playable females in Smash Bros. There's also the female villager and female Mii.

That's wonderful.

That's almost as many as some 'all-female' fighting games, like arcana heart and vanguard princess
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Arcana_Heart_characters
http://www.giantbomb.com/vanguard-princess/3030-27723/

UMVC has 50 characters, 12 of which are female. That's 24%
Smash 4 has 12 of 38 revealed so far, which is ~31%! (unfortunately most of the remaining vets are male - is jiggly female or male, officially?)
 
I was told to doubt Lord Sakurai and follow the leaks, I am glad my heart never made the jump, even though my head was starting to doubt. Believe.
 
Yeah, and they're now separate characters.

Well, again, Lucina is a separate person from everyone, but that doesn't mean she's a separate character when she hasn't shown any mover of her own, she was mostly underplayed in the reveal gameplay wise and we know character's armatures will be able to use different character models.

Love it! I'm hoping when the game releases they will be official artwork of all the females together (hopefully with Dixie).
 
Are there any super high resolution renders of Robin, Lucina, and Captain Falcon like the ones that were released of all the other characters through a press kit or something at E3? And not the .JPG ones, I'm talking about the .PNG renders with transparent background.
 
Why would they make her an alt costume when she is a completely different character in the fiction, and they could get away with having another slot with different move properties?

Why waste time giving her another slot with different move properties, when they could just make her an alt costume for Marth (which makes perfect sense because they fight the same way in Awakening)?

Look, I'm not going to bother arguing this with you, it's obvious you're not open to multiple possibilities. I'm sure we'll find out if she's a legit character or not soon.

i noticed that in her pic she has a slight different jumping animation from marth (at least thats what i think)

edit;also while i do feel like lucina is going to be a clone to marth i do think her move properties will be different

also, I wonder if Marth was slowed down a bit to differentiate between him and Lucina
Aww yeah
 
I was thinking if buying it. If I got the Marth and Ike dlc can I use them from the start?

The DLC is actually a chapter, not just the characters by themselves (which are pretty barebones) and you need to finish that chapter to recruit them and then you can use then anywhere. Marth's has the lowest level DLC and can be gotten as soon as the DLC becomes available, while Ike's DLC is actually higher level than the last story chapter.

Oh gotcha. Is there any replay value once you finish the game?

There are multiple difficulty levels, and the actual Awakening characters (not the DLC ones) can have different pairings, which changes their children's stats and appearance (just hair color). There's a large pool of characters for different teams and such too.
 
so that's 12 characters, when including female Villager/Mii

that's as many as Smash 64 had!

UMVC has 50 characters, 12 of which are female. That's 24%

Word! Forgot about villager and mii, but those also count as male? Don't know how to factor those in, percent wise!
 
Can somebody explain why Smash threads are always so contentious and dismissive of other posters?

Reading this stuff is a headache.

Count them as a male and a female character, if they can be both. Might also work that way for some of the Pokemon.

Look, I'm not going to bother arguing this with you, it's obvious you're not open to multiple possibilities.

Why would they spend so much dev time making a completely new model for it to be an alt costume for Marth?

"Just make her an alt costume," do you realize how much time that takes? If they take the time to make a model, why would they not want it to be a clone and please the fans of the character that much more?

I'm just trying to figure out why you think an alt costume is even in the cards given what we know, and Smash's past history with clones.
