I actually much prefer the Tellius designs. They look much more like practical armor rather than animu overdesigned crap like Awakening's.

I really want Halo to be playable. He's such a cool character.

 

[K-A-Deman]

Maybe it will be another Smash Run picture with new enemies.

Pre-Order bonus: Gameboy cartridge with Metroid but you play as Ridley instead of Samus. Please understand we weren't able to put Ridley into Smash because he is so big. But we were able to fit him on a gameboy-cartridge.

Random selection of a backdrop when the stage begins.

exciting

I think it'd be cool if it shuttled between the different rooms, new layouts popped up, and every now and then an Elite Four member sends out a stage hazard Pokémon, I.E. Aegislash, Talonflame, Noivern, Barbaracle, etc.

That... would actually be pretty cool.

Craziest thing about this? Ganondorf was played by Matthew Mercer, who was also the director of the series and voiced Kirby and Meta Knight. Since then he's become a pretty big-time professional voice actor... including the English voice of Chrom! So that trailer cameo is sort of a full circle thing for him in a way.

Such a cool series, I should give it a rewatch sometime...

wow! I should watch there will be brawl again

Well given the fact that the Fire Emblem series is entirely based on using units (both your own and allied ones) to fight enemy units, and you are seeing these colors whenever you actually y'know, play the game (except for PoR/RD), I think that dismissing them as "so generic to not count as references to games" is unfair. They are obviously clear references to the source material. That's what we were talking about, after all. And the red/green alts are as much of references to the source material as having Ike have a similar color to Greil's (even if not identical), or Marth having an alt that references the official art from one of the games, or Captain Falcon having one that references Jody Summers.

They can definitely be taken as references, but what I meant with them counting as 'new', was that they weren't a reference to a specific design, and thus a lot more could be done using a generic unit as a base. Instead of just washing the standard outfit in red or green, a much more interesting palette swap could have been created by altering the hue of the sword, hair, eyes and skin along with the base outfit, perhaps adding some minor pattern to the cape as with Little Mac or Mario's striped SSB4 alts. I just want the colour options to be more visually interesting as a whole, I guess.

I really just want to see Wario. He's perfect for screenshots, and the longer it takes for him to reveal, the less stuff we'll see of him.

Oh for sure, but

[BGBW]

No he didn't! He just said Shulk is 100% in, unlike Chorus Kids and Chrom.

Pro Tip: Don't try to rewrite history. Also why do you defend them so?

POTD...I...NEED...IT

 

[Dagobert Duck]

Please understand. Its Australia only cause they got enough room to fit Ridley...

Yes, but across the board the Tellius designs are more practical (see Jill vs Cherche, Marcia/Tanith/Sigrun vs Sumia/Cordelia, etc.)

You assume I'm checking the site to begin with

so over-designed

frankly I'm not sure where I'm supposed to be looking

Except it's yet another example of you guys forgetting that it's only the western fanbase with a stiffy for Ridley. What are the Japanese getting? Gaius lollies?

Hey, I have perfect control of how much time it takes to account for errors when I'm rendering out a scene.

Spoiler

WHY IS I TAKING SO LONG TO DO A PLAYBLAST?!

 

[Neiteio]

Aegislash is too op.

:-O

Actually, it'd be funny if in the Steel-type room, players could pick up Aegislash like an item and wield him like a sword and shield, lol

 

[sorakirosaki]

Oh for sure, but


>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

okay for me i dont think thats a fair comparison at all since ones an artist using what they had to work with but i can see where people are coming from lol

o im not saying that the tellius designs are less practical my point was that they both have it lol

Oh my gosh Xenoblade enemies in Smash Run never occurred to me until now :O

lol, "stiffy for Ridley,"

Seriously, though, the Japanese don't like space dragons?

No wonder the west is getting ahead!

I mean it's not like America is a massive market and so putting in a few characters to cater to them would be a smart idea sales wise.

 

[Fandangox]

But that (horrendous) Micahiah art in awakening is not even by the main artist in awakening so

Nobody will or won't buy the game based on Ridley alone.

 

[Ryce]

It's not even fair to say that Ridley would cater to "America" -- his inclusion isn't going to drive sales in any region.

I think it drains your soul or something if you do that. High risk/reward item?

Japan's always had a slightly different taste in dragons.

 

[Hours Left]

The Awakening guest art was such a mixed bag. Some really cool pieces, but also a lot of WTF.

*meanwhile, in his Palace of Ice on the Dark Side of the Moon, Sakurai stops mashing potatoes for a moment and strokes his chin thoughtfully*

"Sakur-cat... Am I forgetting something? Don't I usually do something on my computer right around now?"

*Sakur-cat is too busy being cute squeezing into a basket. Sakurai sighs, and goes back to mashing potatoes*

No need for that, we have plenty of comparisons from the actual characters.

edit: well I guess, but the most fanservice in that form is like...Lethe and Lyre vs Tharja

 

[afoni]

I know you will.

Hence 'nobody'.

 

[sorakirosaki]

lol i can see where people have problems with the design (the sterotypical anime designs large sparkly eyes, moe blob ness) but honestly i dont mind it its definitely weaker than the rest of em though lol

No need for that, we have plenty of comparisons from the actual characters.

yeah i went and checked a few characters from the tellius saga and they definitely have more armor on lol i think mist could count as well

 

[Neiteio]

Wow, man, Tiki looks way too old, like almost legal or something, better stick to Nowi

 

[Fandangox]

Ike's and Micahiah's are definitely the worst of the guest arts. My favorite one is Roy's cause I really love the Last Story art style.

 

[K-A-Deman]

Man this plot is just writing itself in that case. let's all root for the poor dragon-loli that's got a PO'ed ex-military after her for some mistakes being made.

I'd watch this trainwreck
