Support NeoGAF

Spoiler

If they've already done the work to make him a boss character on Pyrosphere, why not implement him as a standard boss encounter as well?

Most likely wouldn't work too well, since a stage boss is designed to be more of a hazard instead of a real foe.

 

[Zimmy64]

Looks like Ganondorf/Lucas/Ice Climbers/King K Rool/Ridley reveal will be tomorrow night.

 

[oreomunsta]

2 more months of this eh

How can I resist?

 

[Spinluck]

Plzstop trying to get thread closed with fake potds

It's annoying as shit.

Do it when it's not around PoTD time. Sheesh.

 

[Not]

So. Bored. Well, good night all

 

[EulaCapra]

Well, this certainly ain't a newcomer trailer announcement. Time to sleep.

 

[munchie64]

Dammit Sakurai! This tomfoolery has gone on long enough!

 

[Forkball]

Alt bosses will be:

Crazy Hand
Tabuu
Giga Bowser
Giga Doctor Mario
Crazier Hand
Giga Tabuu

 

[Tan]

"In Classic mode, you can choose your next challenge on the route map. Looks like Master Hand is waiting at the end, but perhaps something might change if you raise the intensity…?!"

Huh....interesting. It has to be more then just Crazy Hand. Maybe Tabuu?

Magic Hand
King Hand
Hand Hand

 

[Sponge]

Master hand, crazy hand, and now ... cranky hand.

This shouldn't have made me laugh as hard as it did.

 

[Loco4Coco]

????

That was me hoping before the POTD was posted.

 

[Neoxon]

Night, guys.

 

[Cody_D165]

Personally, I hope it's Dr. Kawashima.

 

[The Bankslammer]

It's Mega Man's symbol, the gear

well if that's not a sign i need to sleep i don't know what is

 

[Regulus Tera]

He's gonna recycle the original bosses from Subspace Emissary, like Duon and that other thing that was like a mechanical gorilla.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

I'd support Crazy Tabuu.

 

[boclfon479]

King Hand

Hand Hand can have master hands for fingers, handception

 

[InvincibleAgent]

Yay for Master Hand
And lol at people believing it was Smash Run again haha

I'm blind and was fooled by that weird scale thing.

That's my alibi and I'll stick to it.

 

[Tripon]

BTW, Keifer Sunderland is not voicing a character in MKX. People were joking around (or maybe serious) about Snake having a better chance being in MKX over Smash this time.

So that's how DragonSworne sees Iwata?

 

[PK Gaming]

Glad to see that 3DS version is basically Super Smash Kid Icarus Bros: Uprising

 

[Zimmy64]

Alt Bosses will be Crazy Hand/Master Hand Tag team and Tabuu who is fought after beating Crazy/Master Hand on a certain difficulty and/or within a certain time limit.

 

[exfatal]

Personally, I hope it's Dr. Kawashima.

he would be awesome as an assist trophy

 

[Pikma]

Guessing the higher difficulty means Crazy Hand.

Crazy Hand sorta confirmed I guess.
And Tabuu too, probably.

Not necessarily, maybe as shits get crazier he (smartly) learns to fight fire with water, so instead of trying to shit on you, which will always inevitably end with you shitting on him, he invites you to join him at the table and take a sit, drink a cup of tea and chit chat for a while?

You say that like its a bad thing.

 

[Red Arremer]

Magic Hand
King Hand
Hand Hand

You forgot Baby Hand and Metal Hand.

 

[Storm Kyleis]

The new Classic Mode looks cool.

But here we go for another day of tiny icon leaks and speculations.

 

[Troubled Bat]

Pic of the day. In Classic mode, you challenge multiple stages en route to a climactic final battle. The more gold you put onto the Fiend's Scale, the harder the battles will be. In return, your rewards will get better and more abundant. The best way to earn gold fast is to win Classic battles on higher intensity.

In Classic mode, you can choose your next challenge on the route map. Looks like Master Hand is waiting at the end, but perhaps something might change if you raise the intensity…?!

Do we fight Crazy Hand? Do we go against both?! :0

 

[Regulus Tera]

Personally, I hope it's Dr. Kawashima.

I hope it's Miyamoto and, instead of upending the table, he upends Final Destination.

 

[PreyingShark]

Hmm... Something about those screens... Oh! Yes, that's it!

[PK Gaming]

No way man, my post is 100% honest

I love me some Uprising

 

[Forkball]

I'm impressed that the leak has been dodged in four straight PotDs. If they're aware of the leak and know it's true, what do they have to gain confirming it? You would think they would just hold off any big info until after release. But there's gotta be a Smash Direct next weekish.

Save us Pokken.

 

[oreomunsta]

You forgot Baby Hand and Metal Hand.

Obligatory Pink Gold Hand mention

 

[callmeJackz]

Another day of madness continues. Sakurai knows.

24 hours = About 2-3 more "icon leaks"

 

[SmithnCo]

Hmm... Something about those screens... Oh! Yes, that's it!

#TeamFake

The bottom bar?

 

[Hatchtag]

There's probably gonna be some fucking character who's unlocked by doing some strange specific route through classic mode, isn't there?

Interesting

 

[Dimitri LH]

Im digging that map background though.

 

[Ryouji Gunblade]

I want Cruel Hand. They keep on coming until you're K.O.'d.

 

[SkullHydra]

There's probably gonna be some fucking character who's unlocked by doing some strange specific route through classic mode, isn't there?

And it's going to be your favorite.

 

[Village]

Black Hand
.

Blackest night zombi smash costumes confirmed

 

[friskykillface]

Dat Kremlin trophy...

King K Rool sweatn'
He's boss though , at least give us his ship as a stage

Would be GOAT dk level

 

[Golnei]

Even if there isn't, you can be certain people will insist on all sorts of ridiculous unlock methods for Ridley, K. Rool and Mewtwo for the first week or so the game's out.

 

[PreyingShark]

The bottom bar?

Yes. It's probably been mentioned a lot already, but it looks to be the same as Pokemon Gen V's time/battery bar.

 

[Icelandic_Jazz]

Crazy Metal Adolescent Cyan Hand?

I can only dream.

 

[Rychu Supadude]

You guys have it all wrong, the mysterious opponent is right there in the screenshot... Golden Mario will spring to life and rise up from the Gold Hoard!

(Are we still talking about Smash Bros.?)
