I just edited my post. It's there.
Super Smash Bros. for 3DS & Wii U Thread 12: Gwah, hah. Welcome to the Bowser's game.
- Thread starter IntelliHeath
- Start date
I just edited my post. It's there.
Ha, I'm not sure who's supposed to be who in this GIF. I'm not trying to start shit, I swear!
I respect Meta Knight as a character cherished by many. But man, for me to feel like a swordsman, it helps to have actual arms swinging the sword, lol.
I think the following could rekindle hype:
- Exciting stages for Donkey Kong (WiiU or 3DS), Kirby (WiiU or 3DS), Metroid (3DS), etc
- A newcomer not on the Gematsu list (someone other than Shulk or Chorus Kids)
- A newcomer that is surprisingly clever (can include Shulk or Chorus Kids)
- A revamped Ganondorf, even if it's just a new move or two
- The return of Mewtwo
- An unexpected veteran (Squirtle, Ivysaur, Snake)
- A "high-risk" veteran (Wolf, Lucas, etc)
- Speaking of which: SNAKE
- Really, anything that disrupts the current narrative of who's expected and who's not
- A glimpse of an all-original trophy (so new model, not imported from existing game)
I don't get this
I don't like this Neiteio, I prefer Bonkers Neiteio, what did you do to him?
Why must you hate banjo threeie? /s

I find that my hype has decreased because we've gotten closer to the release. At the time of E3, we knew a lot about what the game had to offer, but it was still a whole four months off - so close, yet so far. That made me antsy because I wanted it NOW but it was still a long ways off. Now that we're only about a month and a half away from the release, I'm no longer on the edge of my seat because it feels like I'll have the game in my hands in no time.
On another subject, I notice I haven't been in the fanfic since chapter two. This story is tanking fast

I heard Nintendo owned Banjo at one point in time and traded the franchise back to Rare for the rights for Chunky, Lanky, and Tiny when the buyout happened.
Somehow, Rare owned those three characters if I'm remembering correctly.

Basically another version of this:
So it means those rumors about Chunky being an AT have to be true, right?
Wow, that's a rip off.

That's why I have a hard time believing it.
Then again, it was probably smart of Nintendo to do that. If Rare went off to Microsoft with those kongs, what would have stopped Rare from taking the old DK64 formula and just making a game with those three on the Xbox?
Would have been a nightmare for Nintendo. Plus I doubt they would have known what to do with Banjo alone.

I think Megaman, Pac Man, Mii, Palutena and Lucina will be unlockable, along with everyone but Marth who had previously been unlockable + Lucas (Marth and Lucas swap basically). I think he's revealing unlockables early this time to build hype and also because it's pointless to hide them since they'll be revealed unofficially a week before the game is even out. And he seems to realize this. I just don't see how Toon Link or Luigi would be starters, they don't fit with any of the starting rosters we've had in the past.
lmao
Chunky's most recent appearance since DK64 was a sticker in Brawl. What a stupid trade, they should have just let those three characters never be referenced again like they did to characters they own but don't use like Candy Kong.
Who thought it was a good idea to throw away an entire IP for 3 characters they haven't used in any major game since getting them. Barrel Blast and Diddy Racing DS were terrible.

The longer this thing goes without a release date, the more the chances increase of a 2015 delay.
I REALLY HOPE THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN!!!!
Particularly given how many delays we've had already.

What are you talking about? I don't recall any delays.
Neiteio pls
To be brutally honest, I'm always more interested in the hype cycle than the game itself.
I played Melee and Brawl for about 4 months straight and that's it.
That isn't to say that I don't have a large investment in the outcome, but I always find the prerelease period infinitely more fascinating.
I disagree vehemently.

I still prefer the original by a good margin. In part due to the hardware downgrade. The other main problem was not getting rid of the "round 2" for the worlds. The Touch challenges were even more egregious filler than the Silver Coin Challenges. I appreciated the additions a great deal though.

Donald Duck for Smash. With playable guns.

Nintendo can't afford a 2015 release unlike when the wii was on top of the world
Given the choice of system-locking-bug/Major-glitch-found-last-minute and delaying the game, they'll choose delaying the game.
If it's content that can't be put in on time, they can now remedy that with DLC.

They probably view DK as a much more important franchise, to the point where MS owning even part of it scares them enough that they're willing to trade away another franchise for it (which, to be fair, they didn't create in the first place).

Okay, here's my prediction for the rest of the roster. This is not a leak or anything, this is just educated guesswork.
Unique Newcomers:
Shulk
Chorus Men
Ridley
Bowser Jr
Duck Hunt Dog
Clone newcomers:
Dark Pit
Impa
Melee veterans:
Doctor Mario (yes, as a clone and not an alt)
Mewtwo
Most of this stuff will be revealed after release.

Ugh, the coins; such a nightmare.
The Lucina/Robin reveal was definitely the highest my hype has ever been. I think that's true for much of GAF, judging from how quickly we chewed through OT10. It was a combination of a change in the narrative (TWO Fire Emblem reps who AREN'T Chrom?!), the addition of Captain Falcon, the uniqueness of Robin's playstyle, two more "sisters" in Lucina and Fem Robin, the meme factor that was the trailer, and of course the weekend countdown to the grand reveal. It was all so perfect.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if three was a delay

Nah, I just mean Mia was extremely popular compared to the other minor characters from the game, nothing more than that. Pretty much just like Tharja stands out in terms of popularity compared to the other minor Awakening characters.

I meant the other games this year that were delayed to 2015.

I sure hope you are right, but Nintendo isn't following sound advice much lately.
Of course
uh....oh....
I can't even come up with a comeback to this anymore.
4 chapters already???

If this was to happen, expect me to have a new main right away.
He'll be a clone of Squirtle.

1. To get you to get your mom/dad to bring you to mcdonalds and buy food.
2. To advertise for nintendo.

Mia is actually liked without much backlash though, Tharja is hated almost as much as she's liked
Tharja sucks
But it was in the GCN era, long after the N64 stopped being promoted/relevant. I guess 1. is still valid.

Oh lol, thought you were talking about smash d:
My hype would be through the roof with the announcement of Ridley or Isaac as playable.
I'm not so narrow-minded/unimaginative that I'd rule out the possibility of newcomer Ridley, and this whole shadow deal being a troll, but... At this point, it does feel like Sakurai has come to see the "essence" of Ridley as being, well, too big to be a regular character. But yeah, if Ridley were playable as a normal character on the roster (rather than as part of a special boss mode), hype would skyrocket to unprecedented levels.
