Pic of the day. Nightmare Wizard appears as an Assist Trophy! He will engulf the stage in darkness, and fighters will need to brawl blindly for a while. Look out for the effect before it goes dark, and play it to your advantage. Blinding and reversal effects even make the computer players mess up.

I'm loving a lot of the new Assist Trophies in the new Smash so far! An Assist Trophy that I would love to see would be the Elite Beat Agents!
Most likely won't happen. But I can dream ;__;

all my loli wolf companions are so moe
Kinda lame that his ability is just blacking out the screen.

Waluigi maybe an AT but at least he's useful!
not a waluigi fan

Someone answer me, this Nightmare guy, was he the guy on the other end of the line when Dedede needed a monster to clobber that there Kirby? Serious question.

I LOVE how for this screen they took Kirby's/Dedede's facial expression from when the Nightmare Orb pops out of the Fountain of Dreams. So perfect!

And YES @ Music Update!



He's based on his NIDL design, but still, c'mon people!

Well, that is true, but NIDL is a remake. Plus, while his in-game sprite isn't very detailed (it is an NES game):

his artwork for Adventure is pretty much the same. Pretty much just minor changes to his helmet were made:

Overall I think Adventure looks more aesthetically pleasing than NiD. I don't think more detailed is necessarily the best look for Kirby and in some cases the remake is less detailed/lazier.

At least nobody is referencing the anime.

I don't like the idea of blacking out the screen. He'll definitely be an assist trophy nobody likes. It would have been better if he appeared on screen, then wrapped his cloak around himself and became the cloaked nightmare. Then he could fly around shooting stars at random people. Maybe he could also make the stage really dark but you can still see. He'd be like an evil smash ball.

Actually, I think this design is derived more from his appearance in the anime than from his Adventure/NiDL design. For reference:

EDIT: The image hotlink isn't showing up for me half the time, so you can see it here: http://www.absoluteanime.com/kirby/nightmare[2].jpg

Note the number of pauldrons and the number of little flaming bead things in his crown.

Not that I'm complaining because I thought the anime design was pretty cool.

No, he's not. The NME Salesman - the person who sold Dedede monsters - was just a figurehead for Nightmare's evil corporation. The two have similar faces, though.

Nightmare as an Assist Trophy is so awesome, I am stoked. I was always kinda a fan of effects that obscure the screen as well, so I'm happy all around! And he looks so coooool.

Nightmare's design between the anime and Nightmare in Dream Land is nearly identical (as NiDL had the vast majority of all of its visual designs shared with the anime) so...
 
Just so you guys know, in light of today's little snag with the voting (and me not know who created NeoGAF -_-), I'm going to comb through the first poll's results to make sure everyone is properly validated. I honestly don't think the results will change much, as the majority of people who voted on the first poll have informed in some way since that they voted. However, to keep it fair, I'll dig through it tomorrow.

Sorry for the iffy start! I know it's all in fun, but what's the point of a poll if it isn't accurate? I'll send out a bunch of PMs tomorrow and make sure the results are as accurate as possible.

Very true regarding the artwork.

I actually happen to be comparing Nightmare in Dream Land to Adventure for my blog and I've found I always keep going back and forth on which aesthetic I prefer! They did indeed get lazy in certain cases (the floating platforms, ick) and a couple of the backgrounds don't really mesh with Kirby at all (wtf is with that volcanic shit in Yogurt Yard?), yet a good chunk of the backgrounds still give me the warm fuzzies (never tire of the scope of the grassland from the first level!).
 
To be fair, EviLore didn't create NeoGAF. He's just the current owner. :p
Haha, well still. I thought I recognized the name, and in my head I must assumed it was from SmashGAF as I don't post outside of here often. Still, despite me doing a pretty thorough investigation beforehand, it goes to show I can still check a few more posters out. Glad I caught it early!

What happened today? I missed it, I was away the whole day :(

I started posting the results for the Favorite Character poll I've been hosting today. With each one, I'm including some quotes from NeoGAF user provided in the document. In today's for Yoshi, one of them was credited as "evilore," who currently owns NeoGAF. I had no idea who he was, so didn't notice that it's probably
definitely
a voter under a fake name. Everyone else was quick to point it out in quite a funny array of "HUH?!" posts and...well, that's that! As a result, I'm going to double check everything a little harder before going forward.

Oh, I see, I was going to ask you for a link so I could check them out, but on second thought, that's probably not a good idea as we don't know how realistic they are and it could end up being more confusing to other guys here. I'll have to wait for the confirmed results then :)

Maturity, bitches.
Oh, that's awesome! Is that worth getting if
I already have the first NES Remix and only found it so-so?
Hmmm... well some would say the selection of games in best, the remixed stages have more mixed games and Super Luigi Bros is quite a nice bonus, however I found a lot of the challenges were basically just taking you through snapshots of the games rather than exploring their mechanics. That's what happens when they move away from single screen games to multi level games.

We still need Kirby stages on both versions. Really hope the Wii U stage is the city from City Trial in Air Ride, especially if it's a large stage instead of a changing location one. It's probably the location in Kirby I remember the most, honestly.
