i'm sorry masked man, i'm fanfic breaking up with you. it's not you, it's me.

But it's actually you.

B-but, Berordn, I... ;______;

Don't hate on the best gen 6 starter...

Never mind--looks like I have a new fanfic boyfriend. <3

A float is different from a glide, though. A glide you have no control of the horizontal direction you're going in, you can only influence vertical movement. Pit's and MK's glides are nothing like whatever Palutena has. It sounds more like Peach's float, which isn't likely to be gone (we haven't seen her float yet but I can't imagine why it would be gone) except Palutena goes upward first and then you have control over her horizontal movement.

I don't disagree with you--the image I have in my mind is actually closer to Knuckles's glide attack--but I'm just basing my translation off of the terminology that Sakurai himself has used. He said that Meta Knight lost the "glide" (&#28369;&#31354;) after his Shuttle Loop, and the Famitsu article refers to Palutena's motion after Jump Glide by the same term. It could just be that Famitsu was careless and used the word without realizing that it already applies to an official gaming technique.

EDIT: I removed the confusing terminology from my original translation since it sounds like video footage says that it's basically a goddess-style Peach float. :)
 
Any news on an Adventure mode like Melee's for Wii U? It's disappointing that they're not doing a story mode for this game like they did for Brawl's... (for very stupid reasons imo) but I would like to have seen story mode that mixed the best of both Brawl's Subspace Emissary and Melee's Adventure mode.

SSE's cutscenes took up a lot of disc space, space better used for playable characters.

Smash Run.
 
No Hotel Mario? No sale.

Clearly, BGBW hasn't unlocked all the characters in his leaked copy yet, silly!

Aye, SSE didnt have any of the replayability Adventure mode had imo, the story was throwaway and resource heavy cutscenes. Im all for loads of good single player content (fuck you Capcom) but the SSE felt bloated.
 
Since we're here, what is everyone's favourite newcomer video and why?

Mine's either Little Mac's, because the cartoon style and hype music, or Robin/Lucina's because the FE art and the awesome music.

Robin, definitely. The Chrom anti-reveal was hilarious and revived newcomer discussion. Also, Robin looks really cool and my man Falcon had a brief cameo.
 
The Fire Emblem trailer was a roller coaster. Going from "yeah it's Shulk duh" before it aired to "oh, Fire Emblem? Guess it's Chrom" "What? Lucina? They're just faking us out..." "HOLY SHIT CAP" "okay they're going to have Chrom's splash any second now WHAT ROBIN"

It was insanity. My reality was destroyed.
 
I hope Wii u adventure mode is an expansion of melee with different branching paths!

Palutena. That pit vs link fight and ki:u craziness.

Probably the Robin/Lucina trailer. While I liked the art shifts and tone of the Palutena and Little Mac trailers; the Robin trailer was perfect. The dramatic countdown filled with anticipation, Falcon's glorious return, Chrom being disconfirmed with great fanfare, a newcomer I always wanted but never expected, an ideal choice of clone - the huge amount of excitement it generated ended up being self-sustaining for a considerable period.

Don't forget:

"I guess I'll have my chance another day."

"NO. YOU'LL GET IT TODAY!"

"On my mark!"
 
The fire emblem reveal just for initial reaction & rewatchability.

I was wondering how they'd keep the trailers surprising after the first few, that one was
the undeniable answer to my question.
 
I agree on the SSE being bloated.. especially the final level of SSE was basically the whole game in one level.. oy.

I still say that had the Great Maze basically just been the adventure mode from the start, the whole thing could've been salvaged.

But as it was, it was just unnecessary padding.

This is a perfect example of why I come here.

Pretty much this
 
My favorite trailer is a close run between the recent Fire Emblem one and the original Mega Man one, but I think I like Mega Man's the most. It was just... so amazing, coming after the fantastic SSB4 trailer and then revealing, of all characters, the most-wanted 3rd party addition complete with an awesome classic-inspired design and... it was just beautiful.

Fire Emblem trailer was also great, though, because it totally rekindled my interest in character speculation due to breaking the infamous Gematsu leak. Also, Robin! Roooobbiiiiiin! Robin is awesome.

Probably the Fire Emblem trailer. Just the night before it I had pretty much resigned myself to the idea that the Gematsu newcomers would be the only newcomers and I was lamenting the fact that Chrom would be getting in over Robin (or Lucina) whom I found to be more interesting.

So before the trailer started I was expecting Shulk, but instead I got my dream newcomer(s).

That plus Falcon putting the fear of god into Lucina made the trailer the best.
 
If you go to reddit, they're there. Basically a new Kirby color (black/blue/purple with glowy yellow eyes) and just info on newcomers and veterans that we already knew. It also said there's more to Pyrosphere than it appears, and a monster might appear, but I don't know if they're just guessing that or if they actually know something.

Thanks man, I appreciate it!

Punch-Out!!, due to art style, music, and the fact that he was my most-wanted character for Brawl after Wario. Seriously, both of them could have justifiably been playable in 64.

EDIT: Also, the constant Ridley hinting is making me more and more convinced that he is a playable character. I mean c'mon, is Sakurai so ignorant that he would be teasing something that would please nobody other than those who derive joy from others' misery? How can he so recurrently teasing Ridley more than anything in the game, only to have it be

A. Obvious, and
B. Soul-crushing?

Hasn't Sakurai expressed in the past that he doesn't like to be directly disappointing?

What are the typefaces used in the smaller character frames and in the larger at the bottom?
Small: OldSansBlack, Size 30px, Vertical scale: 85%, Horizontal scale: max 115%, Tracking: 120

Big: Geneva CY, Size: 80 px, Tracking: -100

They don't actually match the original fonts. They are just very close substitutes.
 
I think something we're neglecting to mention for Doc appearing is that he doesn't even require Martinet to record new lines, in Melee he used Mario's lines exactly, so it's even easier adding him than any other clone.

Also I feel like Lucina's height difference from Marth was more of a deal than originally thought. If they couldn't make her taller without it looking weird, it may have been what made her, her own slot.

Constant? He hinted to him once in a PotD which is not out of the ordinary since a lot of things have been hinted at in PotD which we still don't know much about and then again in the Direct after a segment about one boss, which is likely because he only wanted to focus on Yellow Devil but wanted to state that it wasn't the only one without giving too much away.

The hints are pretty obvious as to who he is referring to without revealing Ridley before he wants to specifically talk about him.

If anything he knew Ridley is wanted so early on he told us he's a stage hazard and later clarified he is a stage boss. Only the desperate are reading more into it.
 
I'm looking forward for this week of POTDs. Hopefully it would be good week. :)

We are like 19 days away from release date for JP, so we have like 15 more pictures to go.

Lucina being made into her own character is what allowed her to be shorter, but I doubt that was the reason she was separated in the first place. In Wii Fit, the male and female trainers are different heights, but they're the same height in Smash Bros. -- the same could have applied to Lucina as a costume. Marth's barely taller than Lucina anyway, so it wouldn't have looked too strange.

It's time for daily megatons.

No more Smash Run filler, no more palette swaps.

What I mean is more stages, veterans, music, modes, Directs, reveals.

Les do et sakurik
 
Little Mac's was the best, followed by Robin and Greninja.

Least favorite so far is Palutena's. It's pretty bad when the highlight of Smash trailer is the other kind of fanservice.

My preferred timeline would be 10 days of ATs, costumes, items, game modes and music; followed by a direct which definitively confirms or denies the leak, through stage, veteran and newcomer reveals.
