I think I'm going to die SmashGAF.
 
Well good news is we have 1 month and then we will be watching all the news come in from japan. Shouldn't take more than what 1-3 days before everyone is unlocked? Unless someone can get into the game files and see them right away.

Probably a day at most. Unless there's a weird timed unlock like Mewtwo. Assuming they all don't just leak beforehand.
 
Although Little Mac already has two alternate outfits, I would love to see him dressed as the guy from Arm Wrestling (as he looks identical to arcade Mac anyway).

I think the roster might leak beforehand, but we might have to wait 8+ hours until there's screenshots/footage of everyone. I remember not seeing toon link until the night brawl came out in japan, IIRC.

I think Wolf was the last one I saw, I didn't believe it when I first read it.
 
Man, Mewtwo's unlock method was pretty odd.

Yeah.

I hope so lol.

Well what about ya know not knowing how to unlock everyone. Sometimes if its play x games, or win this way or that way and theres nothing indicating it how else woulld we find out.

Edit: If there is an official Guide on day one I assume it will have unlocks and character details yes? If so we should probably expect that to leak early then? Is there any president for this?

At least it guarantees no one will unlock him right away, if that's something you want.

The worst thing would be to tie an unlock to global smash power, which would literally make unlocks impossible for some people. I hope no trophies or anything in the game require global smash power to unlock.

Yeah, those were crazy times. I remember sitting at home after school and refreshing the page every 30 seconds; the craziest part it there was almost always a new piece of info.
 
So I'm finally going to see Guardians of the Galaxy tonight... at 10:10pm. Is it wrong that I'll be secretly refreshing this thread during the movie every few minutes to see the PotD as soon as it's up? :(

Take a break from Smash Thread, and enjoy the movie. You wouldn't able to have time to look at threads because the movie itself is pretty fast with the pace.
 
But people know who Bowser is.
this^
The average person would look at donkey kong and diddy and no they represent the same franchise same with dixie, king k rool on the other hand is a big random lizard who hasn't been relevant for like 10 years, and when he was couldn't keep a consistent design to be memorable.

The difference is that Bowser is the single most famous villain in the video game medium. K. Rool doesn't quite compare.
also this^
He's arguing that K. Rool doesn't fit in because he's not a monkey. Importance and relevancy have nothing to do with it.

you dont get it.

Bowser is popular and well known. so obviously people will recognize where he is from. People ask wheres bowser if there's a fighting game with mario in it. Few people these days (the people who buy and play smash)wont even know who king K is, where he belongs ,how he relates to the dk franchise. yet alone ask for him.
 
I didn't believe ROB at first because people kept saying that it was ROB64. I just realized people were confused with R.O.B. and ROB64.

I immediately knew who they were talking about since people predicted ROB to be THE subspace emissary (the picture w/ the rob outline under the hood). Might have been a gaf thread that was linked on gonintendo. All of my gaf info came from gonintendo reposting gaf posts :p

This sounds crazy, but...skip the update tonight. That movie is quite spectacular and you really don't want to miss any of it.

Also, if I was sitting near you and you whipped your phone out, I'd secretly be hating you. :P

Where are you for POTD to be updating while you're watching at 1010pm?
With the last two days of early updates, that's been the update time for me as well (PST).

Exactly why we need someone like Dixie, Cranky
or Funky
 
Yes, I think you might need some help.

Probably. I ain't ashamed! :P

Where are you for POTD to be updating while you're watching at 1010pm?

Los Angeles. The PotD usually updates anywhere from 11pm-12:30am, though with this week's updates being weirdly earlier it's been more like 10:15-10:30pm.

Just think of the easter eggs you'll miss.

I know! :(

I'm being... half-serious.

Take a break from Smash Thread, and enjoy the movie. You wouldn't able to have time to look at threads because the movie itself is pretty fast with the pace.

But but but but CHARACTERS! And and and and and STAGES! :P
 
I'm steadily making my way to the endgame, and I've been aware of what happens to Melia for some time. The knowledge has been a terrible burden to bear.
About the same place in the game as you, except I just ran into the solid steel wall that is ENDGAME BOSS SPOILER
Lorithia.

Just watch the movie, it moves pretty quick. You can always join up with us later. Plus there's tons of easter eggs, & the movie is just that good.

Well, checking the update would be the first thing I do after leaving the movie... but TIMELINESS! :O

Probably California or somewhere in the west US.

Nailed it!

Nah that's called dedication lol.

Nah.....thats just what a sane person would do.



.......Seriously!

That's how I prefer to think of it! :D

I dunno about tomorrow update, but Ganondorf have a chance to be reveal during Thursday POTD.

Yeah, I know. I was being facetious... but watch Meta Knight be revealed tonight. :P

Weird, wonder why the schedule changed. That's roughly 2pm or so, Japan time, rather than the 4pm-ish that it used to be. I always assumed it was the last thing he did before he left work. Wonder what he's doing 2pm and later that needs his attention. "We're going GOLD" celebrations? :)

Well, Sakurai posted last two pictures at 1am EDT.

That's what I'm saying. 1am EDT is 2pm japan time.

Right now it's 10:54 PM Tue Aug 12, which makes it 11:54 AM Wednesday, August 13, 2014 (JST)

13 hour time difference, they're 13 hours ahead. It used to be like 3-4 AM EDT, right? Which was like 4-5pm for them, or, as I assume, closing time.

Wonder what changed. Is he leaving earlier? Are they celebrating because 3DS went gold!? (I bet they have no time to celebrate, just shift resources to Wii U)

No complaints about earlier PotDs here! We're winding down until 3DS JP release, so why not?

OH man....the day when we officially here "We went gold!" is going to be glorious :D
 
Crazy to think we're so close to the 3DS release

Yes it is, especially in Japan. It comes out in four weeks there. If they're going to meet the street date with any sort of real stock they must be ready to print. I think games usually start printing three weeks before release, if not earlier. So it can't be long now.
 
Question concerning leaks and the game guide.

If there is an official Guide on day one I assume it will have unlocks and character details yes? If so we should probably expect that to leak early then? Is there any president for this?
