Also, when is this broadcast supposed to be happening?
Lanaryu Mining Facility is a great song, it reminds me of the Spirit Temple in OOT. The clanking noises fade into the background after like, 5 seconds.
Wakai can make a clunker when he wants to though.

Teen Beat went out of print years ago, didn't it? I remember that from when I was in middle school, but it disappeared after that. Besides, those magazines are usually celebrity-focused, right? Boy Bands aren't really my thing. What I want is a magazine like CoroCoro that focuses on video games and stuff like that. Nintendo Power was awesome back in the day.
Of course, maybe what I'm looking for already exists and I just don't know about it. If there's one thing I excel at, it's being out of the loop.

are we listening to the same song????
those guitar plucks are AMAZING so be quiet..........
It should be different, because it's a massive fuck up on Sakurai's part if he goes about it the same way and my interest in playing Sm4sh competitively just went way down.
The fact that this image exists, coupled with what we've seen today, does not make me think that he's going to treat custom moves differently to equipment and put them in an quick to access location.
God damn it.
Well, we know that the Amiibo can store movesets for the chars on there, we just don't know if they can be used for multiplayer char import. Maybe the will, I certainly hope so.

Ever since I saw that fake mockup for Wario & Waluigi: Partners in Crime a couple years ago, I've really wanted something like that to happen. An RPG starring Wario is bound to be a winner, and it would give Waluigi some much-needed character development. Conceptually, I can't see a single downside.

+1 for not understanding the appeal of Waluigi to anyone or anything. He and Wario are just so fucking obnoxious. But at least Wario has the WarioWare series to make him the least bit redeeming... Waluigi has nothing. Well, except that taunt in Mario Strikers Charged. That's pretty great.
But hey, different strokes and all that.

I know that the Dec. 31st date is just a place holder, but it'd be hilarious/painful/facepalm-worthy if Nintendo actually released the game that late.
Let us not forget his starring role as DDR Mario Mix's antagonist. It's the role he was born for.

Waluigi is: The Lord of The Dance
He wasn't the main antagonist. That was Bowser.
What, you didn't love him in the Wario Land series? He's still hilarious there.

You're forgetting Mario is Missing! and Dr. Luigi, to be fair.
This is personal preference talking, but I always tend to play as Luigi when he's offered (barring Smash Bros., where I can't say as I really feel him). Super Mario Bros. 2 (both types), Super Mario Advance 2 (SMB2 (US) Luigi in SMW, fwee), Super Mario 3D Land, Super Mario 3D World, every Mario Kart ever made... Obviously these can't count as "starring" Luigi, but still.

See, both of us hear the Spirit Temple in Lanayru. We can't both be wrong!
As for the Wind Temple, I'll agree on the guitar, and I like the little woodwind bits too. But that underlying synth track...good lord. It's horrendous. That synth is to me what the donkadonka beat is to you. No accounting for taste, I guess.
I like him from both angles. I always liked him in Mario Party and such, I would choose him Luigi and Daisy. Also my hatred for Mario and my love for Luigi made me appreciate him more than Wario.
As I grew up joke character became my favorites, Dan for me is the best Street Fighter. Once BitF introduced him as a joke character and I saw how many people hate him I accepted him as our savior.
Actually I realized that the quirkiness is one of the reasons I liked Luigi too. Just look at his Smash taunts and his side special!
Rosalina didn't even have her own moves yet she made it.
Also what's wrong with the sports games? They sold more than the likes Kirby or Metroid.
Tripon pls

Meh... sorry to say I was never able to get into the Wario Land series past the first one (SML 3). Just never really meshed with me. I've tried to play Wario Land 4 like three separate times and just gave up on it a couple hours in each time because I was just bored to tears. I'm sure part of it is that I really just can't get behind Wario as a protagonist. He's just not that funny to me.
It's louis. LOUIS!
I heard tomorrow, but I'm not sure what time. I'm jonesing for another Smash Direct though. If I can't have the game, I want information!

I'm with you on that. Something about Wario Land never clicked for me either. Though, I don't really mind Wario.Meh... sorry to say I was never able to get into the Wario Land series past the first one (SML 3). Just never really meshed with me.

Agreed. It's silly to ignore the spin-off titles when they're just as, if not, more successful and recognizable than a ton of represented franchises in Smash. If Waluigi were to ever be in Smash as a spin-off rep, he'd have a much larger pool of moveset potential to choose from than the majority of the fighters currently in Smash.
But whatever, he's a stupid character who's only in spin-offs that don't seem to get much notice in Smash other than items or stages, so I guess it's never happening. Unless if he ever appears in a Wario title. So I guess there's that.
Who am I thinking of?
Oh fuck the guy from Back to the Future fdasfsdf
(I just watched it yesterday)
Also that video is seriously stupid, what a bunch of idiots.
MAC! When your power meter gets full, you're gonna see some serious shit!

A character doesn't need to have a starring role in order to have enough material for a moveset. Look at Bowser, Ganondorf, or Peach (yes, she has her own game, but none of her Smash moves are taken from it, iirc.) It's about having a developed-enough character to make a unique moveset. Rosalina, with her Luma buddies and her general space theme, had that.
Waluigi, on the other hand, doesn't. The only games he's been in are sports games, which are fine games, but they don't give Waluigi much that's unique to him. It's not about the popularity of the game, but whether they have anything that makes Waluigi unique character - whether they give him something no one else has. Every character in those games swings a golf club and hits a Dice Block. The only uniquely "Waluigi" things he has are the river from Mario Power Tennis and his role as the antagonist in DDR Mario Mix. I'm sure the river could be made into, say, a down special, and whatever groovy moves he's got in DDR could become normals, but I just don't think there's enough to give him a full and unique moveset.

I feel kind of similar. I played Shake It, Virtual Boy WL, WL2, and WL4 (and Wario World, but it's pretty different). I finished all of them but 4 (so far). From what I've played, the series has been enjoyable but not great.Meh... sorry to say I was never able to get into the Wario Land series past the first one (SML 3). Just never really meshed with me.

I wasn't saying they were random as items. I was saying its too random especially considering characters like Palutena and the Miis are completely different if you change a move. Even something like the multihit fireball, which seems like a small alteration but makes the fireball an actually useful move. The approach to these is a lot more complex than fights without customizations. Basically as bad as introducing a couple items like Beam Sword, Ray gun and smoke ball. On the second point, I thought of a method that would work the best. Having another notch on the player's portait next to their name, opening a small menu where you highlight each special and change it that way.
The issues with having one person on the tv screen and one on the gamepad is that it assumes they programmed the gamepad to display something different from the tv when they are already on a time crunch. The other issue is that it would only apply to the gamepad player as letting them control anything is a bad idea if the gamepad player is a troll since he would be able to change the players customizations without the players knowing. So you still would be waiting for 3 players to choose. The only difference between this and going into other menus is that there is a couple seconds of menus and resetting the ko count.
Well the wide brimmed cowboy hat shown ages ago illustrated that original hats are a possibility, but when 90%+ seem to be based off of Plaza ones, people are not wrong in their wishing for their favourite hats to make an appearance. If ones favourite character can't make the cut, well hopefully ones favourite hat can.

Got me there.
I guess it comes down to whether Sakurai and his team can invent a moveset that will distinguish a character from the rest of the roster. Good source material helps, but, you're right, sometimes they can just pull something out of the air. So I suppose Waluigi isn't in because Sakurai either can't come up with anything truly unique for him or because he just doesn't want to include the character for some reason. Maybe he feels Mario, Luigi, and Wario are enough to cover that angle, and Waluigi would just be redundant.
Mysterious Masahiro Castle indeed.

The anime started in 2003, after 64 and Melee had already been released.
That anime came out after Smash 64 and Melee did, and pulled moves from Smash I'm guessin
That's a frog hat.
