Support NeoGAF

[Moonlight]

I unfortunately already know a lot of the plot, but on in broad strokes. I'm excited to actually get to meet all the different gods and see their distinct personalities.

Knowing the plot isn't a big deal. The devil is in the details and the absolutely amazing conversations that happen in the game.

Viridi is the best, BTW.

 

[Neiteio]

As I understand it, ROB basically saved videogames. If it weren't for him, retailers at the time would've refused to stock the NES. They needed the toy tie-in to think systems would sell. And sell they did, leading to the modern gaming industry. So yeah, I think ROB deserves a slot!

 

[OricWindstar]

I must be superhuman or something because I can play Kid Icarus: Uprising for hours without the stand in full blast 3D while standing up without feeling uncomfortable.

Just use your right pinky to support the system and you're good to go.

I'm the same. I can play Kid Icarus Uprising in any position, sitting or standing or lying down upside-down in bed, without the stand, with the game in full 3D, with either my OG or my XL. And I'm fine. I've even perfected the first seven chapters at 9.0 intensity.

That all sounds good to me!

I saw a clip of Phosphora the other day and that's what made me want to get it. Just hearing all the banter and the awesome production values got me really wanting to play it ASAP.

 

[Spinluck]

Well, as far as being the Trojan Horse that brought Super Mario Bros. into homes, yes... ROB could be just as responsible for the revival.

 

[georly]

That is a cheap imitation of tetra's ship. If it were tetra's ship it would have been named as such in the game!

 

[Prisoner]

Who wants ROB cut? He was the best Brawl newcomer.

 

[BGBW]

You insult shopping bag w/ that jest.

I apologise.


ROB's only problem was the SSE association. With that gone he can just be a Funky Robot Fighter rather than some weepy emo thing.

Terrible people. Pay them no heed.

 

[Finale Fireworker]

How meta is it that we'll be getting a ROB amiibo?

R.O.B. is our buddy, he shall never be cut.

Hopefully they do bring him back and change his god-awful final smash. That thing was a disgrace.

ROB is Our Buddy? I'm going to pretend that's what ROB stands for now. Recursive acronyms :3 It's just too bad about the 'is'. I've never been ok with acronyms like that.

 

[Kriken]

15,000 posts!

Wow.

But nobody is hyped for Super Smash Bros anymore...

They'll just package every unsold ROB unit and put a stand under it, it'll be the second biggest Amiibo

Haha, said who now?

It's Robotic Operating Buddy or something.

Haha, said who now?

Poor choice of words, it's actually very little hype for Smash Bros

Dance with me!
Born in a world of leaks!

We choose to hype!
Awesome dance!

Rofl

 

[IntelliHeath]

they won't cut R.O.B or Wario, R.O.B. is too unique and Wario too important.

Righto. I think ROB might be a secret character again, and Wario might announce before 3DS.

so when is that stupid coro coro thing? Its just going to be the characters that were already announced, no?

stupid? o_o I wouldn't dare to call it stupid if it have a potential to end speculation for Palutena's vanilla moveset.

Heh heh heh.... but second biggest? So it will be smaller than Ridley?

This gets me thinking... If there are DLC characters, will they get Amiibos too?

 

[Exotoro]

if you didn't know how to use it, then yeah. I could KO about three people with it on average.

 

[Loco4Coco]

I do, but I'm an awful person in general.

 

[IntelliHeath]

5000 posts to go, oh snap.

I'm pretty sure that DLC characters would get Amiibos but the question is, Will we get DLC? It's something that we should be cautious with since we don't know if we would get one or not.

 

[kuroneko0509]

Should be, well since Amiibo isn't limited to Smash so pretty sure we'll get different kinds of Amiibo.

 

[JStein0222]

I really hope we do get DLC. That post launch injection of hype would be sick

 

[MiguelMexMIstery]

I kinda wished Sonic's moveset incorporated other stuff from his games, like the Wisps, his boost mechanic or that wind move he has in Lost World.

 

[georly]

That's a very good point that I hadn't thought of yet. I've come to accept heavenly light as her default standard special, even though i don't like it. After nosferatu, conventions have been thrown out the door.

http://www.gonintendo.com/s/233504-retail-evidence-for-smash-bros-wii-u-launching-on-nov-21st-continues-to-mount

Not that I put too much stock in retail stuff, but Nov. 21 does seem like a likely launch date to get that sweet Black Friday money.

 

[georly]

if you didn't know how to use it, then yeah. I could KO about three people with it on average.

In order for you to KO 3 people on average, you would literally have to KO 3 people 100% of the time, or sometimes 4 people to offset your 2's

 

[BGBW]

Wonder if Wario will have a slight model change like Yoshi which is another reason they are taking their time with showing him. Also always came off as a little too squat in Brawl.

Just a lot of big IF's floating around the place then. Sakurai, give us answers e_o

Would be pretty cool if they went on sale alongside their respective DLC character launch. It'd give each new fighter a mini-launch of their own!

Think the more likely reason is that he's in a newcomer video the way Captain Falcon was. Or it could just be Samurai being Samurai and being random

That kotaku page got me dying.

New Names For Smash Bros. Fighters, Supposedly From Six-Year-Old Girl

Tumblr user The SoupyOne says that he asked a younger sibling the names of the various characters showing up in the latest Nintendo's all-star brawler. She got some of the more popular characters right, like Mario, Luigi and Peach.

Still, it's when she doesn't know the fighters that hilarity ensues. Blue Robot and Fast for Mega Man and Sonic are dead on, even if the little sister in question doesn't know them from playing video games. Me, I can't decide if I like Number One for the Animal Crossing Villager or Princess Angel for Kid Icarus' male protagonist Pit.

Pakistan, guys.

you people and your goddamn math

 

[Glass Rebel]

I don't want R.O.B. to be cut but I don't necessarily want him back either. The only thing I want is Ganondorf to have a different moveset.

 

[Spinosaurus]

Reminds me of this.

His arms were wayy too stubby in Brawl, when ironically that's one of his defining features in other games (Warioland mainly) because he has these different throws and attacks.

Honestly I'm hoping for a moveset overhaul like Bowser and they give him more Warioland like animations, but I highly doubt it since Warioware seems to be more popular these days.

 

[SoldnerKei]

at least Falco is not Blue Fox...

Spoiler

until he is revealed

 

[Megidolaon]

I can't imagine a game as big as this NOT getting DLC. It's sure-fire profit. Sure, they don't wanna say anything now, but I'd be shocked if this didn't get DLC sometime down the road, especially since other Nintendo franchises have incorporated it well.

And unlike Zelda, a game like this is perfect for DLC. Songs, trophies, skins, stages, characters. Just too easy to add stuff. A golden opportunity too easy to pass if you ask me. I bet any money there'll be DLC.

Why Number 1 for villager???? And lol Martha & Martha's sister. Just how that kid came up with that name lol

too much math

I think an actual example of a six year old answering these questions would be '[blank stare]' and '[indecisive shrug]'.

too much math

Read this as 'Marth' and I was like 'sounds about right'.

Or sometimes 5 to offset a slow 1 0_0

According to that the gamecube controller not in the bundle is 7 days later
