Support NeoGAF

[MaverickHunterAsh]

And the leak survives another day!

Pretty good update, can't complain. Plus I get to laugh at all the complainers going "B'aaaawww more Smash Run wtf Sakurai" when it's not a Smash Run update in the least.

 

[pulga]

I for one am glad to live in a timezone where Samurai doesnt make me stay up late to pull this shit on me.

Then again, I also miss the megatons as they happen

 

[Dimitri LH]

Eh, I like this update. At least now that mode is out of the way.

 

[Pikma]

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

I hope it's Meta knight, and I hope it takes 136352 runs, that way when somebody beats me using that fucker I'll be certain they received their punishment in advance, so there'll be no need to get mad

 

[Hatchtag]

Just noticed the Japanese pic's player has so much more gold than the U.S. one.

 

[Gonzo The Great]

I can't believe the Kritter trophy has been shown three times and K. Rool is still nowhere to be seen... after we spent the past few hours talking about him. Sakurai is obviously lurking GAF. Which one of you is it?

Not me

 

[jnWake]

Classic mode looks pretty fun. I hope Wii U version is the same or very similar.

PotD is the filliest filler of all fillers

 

[Sigismundo]

What icon is the Kremling trophy on, anyway? A generic one?

They have three more weeks to grind.

 

[Porsche9146]

So are Mii hats unlocked along with Smash Run parts?

 

[Red Arremer]

Mega Man's gear.

 

[Golnei]

Looking at the different animations of the silhouette behind the player on the Intensity screen, I can only imagine it doing the gesture if you directly move the slider from intensity 1 to 10.

Technically Master Hand was confirmed but that is sort of a "No shit" thing anyways.

 

[pulga]

I love that Sakurai has incorporated the KI system into this. Two years later and I finally beat Uprising yesterday. What a game hnnngggg

 

[Sigismundo]

Mega Man's gear.

Oh well. Thought it might've been something we haven't seen before.

 

[Golnei]

So are Mii hats unlocked along with Smash Run parts?

It seems so, which is definitely better than forcing you to earn the equivalent in Streetpass Plaza. Would the outfits have similar requirements?

 

[Forkball]

Technically Master Hand was confirmed but that is sort of a "No shit" thing anyways.

I'm almost certain we saw Master Hand in a trailer, possibly at E3.

This update was a Ctrl C Ctrl V job.

SAK FEARS THE LEAK

 

[SenorArdilla]

Looks like it. Hopefully they're also taken out of the rotation when you collect them. I can't count how many times I got Land Mine LVL 2 when playing KI:U.

 

[Troubled Bat]

I saw this image, and the Mii at the top reminded me of Spawn. lol.

 

[Boss Doggie]

I believe the battery and timer bar should never leave the screen below.

 

[BGBW]

Tabuu is taboo. Never mention him again.

 

[Durden77]

PotD doesn't have the disabled in the bottom right.

Fake.

 

[MNC]

hard mode boss:

1V3, Master hand + Giga Bowser + Hulk Mac

Spoiler

Maybe as a challenge..?

Oh man I hope event mode is back!

 

[BGBW]

Just noticed the Japanese pic's player has so much more gold than the U.S. one.

Interesting. I thought they were just using a debug option to flip between languages when taking these screenshots.

Looking at the official site it does indeed seem that they use two versions. Well a little thing to learn today.

 

[Flowmoney]

New boss should be the Controller Hand , the game begins to play you.

 

[Regulus Tera]

I hate that you have to unlock the custom moves though. :/

 

[BGBW]

Secret boss leaked!

 

[JoeInky]

Boring update.

I'm assuming putting it on higher difficulties will either add crazy hand to the boss fight or possibly change the final boss to tabuu.


E: Oh wait, this is disappointing:

In one of the recent videos, changing the intensity changed Mario's pose on the top screen and I was looking forward to seeing what all the other characters did, but according to the bottom screen which shows that Link is being played, it's Mario for all characters. Lame.

 

[Tripon]

 

[FUNKNOWN iXi]

Master Hand 2nd reveal:

Hmm, that sprite list..!

Spoiler

;]

 

[Regulus Tera]

Secret boss leaked!

Duck Hunt Dog confirmed!

Spoiler

who is the parrot like thingy?

 

[SenorArdilla]

You mean that there's going to be character faces instead of colored dots for stocks?

 

[JoeInky]

We've known that since the invitational.

 

[SenorArdilla]

We've known that since the invitational.

Wait, really?

EDIT:
Ah yes. There they are.

 

[Professor Beef]

Wait, really?

Yeah, the faces were there.

 

[Beelzebufo]

Maybe K Rool doesn't even have a trophy or anything, or he's that "Big Kremling" boss that people have been talking about in Smash Run.

 

[Vampirolol]

I see the best difficulty system ever made returning in the same way. This game!

 

[ffdgh]

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…?!

Them uprising call outs.
I would love if giga bowser came back as a boss.

Huh? The player is playing as Mario, going up against Link. What are you talking about?

 

[SuperSah]

Cool update.

 

[JoeInky]

Where are you getting that from exactly?

On the Miiverse pictures, kirby is on the scales in the first pic and it shows that kirby is the one being played on the map, yet it's still Mario on top.

 

[Masked Man]

Secret boss leaked!

Holy shit that is terrifying.

 

[Golnei]

I would love if giga bowser came back as a boss.

I'd like to see all of the transformation-based final smashes appear as boss characters. Along with Giga Bowser; Mega Lucario, Giga Mac, Wario-Man and maybe Mega Charizard could serve as the basis for fun boss battles, with very little extra work required on behalf of the dev team.

Ok, maybe I had it flipped. The Kirby images show Mario as one of the options for opponents.

Probably just a random representative trophy for the bottom screen. Nothing important.

Spoiler

Unless Sakurai or his staff unknowingly posted a picture of the Fiend's Scale and it shows the trophy of a hidden character.

 

[Kouriozan]

I'm liking this PotD.

As much as I'd Love that, rather not go into dream territory. It'll only lead to disappointment.

 

[BGBW]

So one has to play on intensity 8 or 9 to see the extra boss? Well guess I'm never seeing that then.
