I hope you're not taking much giddy pleasure in winning an avatar bet when I'm 2 months away from branding you.

I'm not sure if I actually took pleasure in this or not. It's all about fun. Also we wouldn't know who is right or not until Wii U release date, but yeah. I know I will lose when I took avatar bet with you but the risk is actually worth it.

Much better. I also like to theme the rows/columns, but I haven't been able to figure out a good way to do it.

I like fantasy being together (zelda/KI/Fire Emblem)
I like outer space being together (Kirby/Starfox/Olimar/samus)
I like animals being together (Pokemon/Starfox/Duck Hunt/DK)
I like retro being together (duck hunt/game and watch/rob/ice climbers - possibly little mac)

Etc etc

 

[G0523]

That avatar. It's amazing. One of the best in GAF.

I LOVE IT.

Spoiler

And I really hope we get promotional art of those 4.

Thank you! I want some promo art as well. Closest thing we have so far are screenshots (which aren't that bad actually):

You can have my old one if you want:

 

[Mistle]

i love 3DS's CSS, with plain coloured boxes on a black background. simple, colourful, feels like smash bros.

 

[Ceravic]

wtf ness

I was thinking the same thing! Lucas was #1 for me, but Ness was #2.

Here it is on a normal 3DS. I didn't do it right, but you get the point. It looks fine, especially without the names.

Like this?

This might seem like a strange criticism, but I think moving the clones like that messes up the colors of the CSS, especially in the center. In the original, Zelda, Shiek, Ganondorf, Robin, Kirby, and Jigglypuff create a nice little area of purples and pinks, and Mario, DK, Pit, and Fox have a nice primary color chain. The rearranging breaks up the purple-pink area, and the pink of Kirby looks wrong next to Pit's blue. Also, G&W looks better than Dr. Mario next to Wario. Yellow into yellow-green > yellow into red.

If I could get my stats up (don't have my wii here). Half the thread would love it, while the other half would despise it.

The bet is that Jaeger think that we would get less than 47 characters.

I think you're on to something here.

L-Block for Smash?

What on earth would its moveset be?

 

[ErrorMacro]

Was it really any more obviously fake than the other set of image leaks?

People will always say a leak is obviously fake...until the leak is confirmed! lol

See the amount of crow eating for the bowser jr. and dhd leak.

 

[johnbone]

Z Block is where it's at. I block is too OP

Fuck z-blocks, they always mess my perfect game up!

 

[Boss Doggie]

Yeah the image looks fake. Wolf doesn't look like that.

 

[Frolow]

Anyone up for doing an avatar bet regarding Ridley? I'm fairly certain he's in, but obviously there's tons of you who think otherwise.

Hm, still looks good.

I was actually on #teamreal (as a lurker)!
Today's picture is not nearly as convincing as the real leak!

 

[DrStiles]

Fuck z-blocks, they always mess my perfect game up!

And that's why they should be in Smash. Now we can finally show that block what's up

 

[Ryce]

I rearranged the select screen to something I’d be happy with.

• Mario spinoffs form a block (Yoshi/Wario/DK)
• Pit below Link (1986 bow-wielding heroes), Palutena below Zelda (1986 series namesake mages)
• Sakurai series form a block (Kid Icarus/Kirby), with the heroes (Pit/Kirby) and rivals (Dark Pit/Meta Knight) connected
• Space series are connected (Star Fox/F-Zero/Metroid/Pikmin), and the captains (Falcon/Olimar) are next to each other, and so are the bounty hunters (Samus/Falcon)
• 2001 EAD characters are next to each other (Olimar/Villager)
• RPG series are connected (Pokémon/Fire Emblem/Mother/Xenoblade)
• Retro NES characters are together (Duck Hunt/R.O.B.), as well as Little Mac if you consider him retro
• The two oldest characters are together (G&W/Pac-Man)

 

[Troubled Bat]

So - let's entertain the thought that the leaked roster is final, and those 5 slots will stay empty in the game.

However, there will be a DLC character pack, with 9 characters - 3 newcomers, 3 new clones and 3 veterans. Which would you choose to fill it?

Also, characters which are already stage bosses / hazards and assist trophies are ineligible.

Newcomers

Chorus Men
Wonder Red
Isaac

Clones

Sami
Medusa
Paper Mario

Veterans

Ice Climbers
Mewtwo
Lucas

Conditions? I'm interesed, but I want to have a certain avatar by November 24th.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Well it definitely looks like Fox with Wolf's eye-patch shopped.

Key Wolf designs:
- he is "sharper" and "edgier" in the head, with his cheek fur a bit more exaggerated
- has mohawk-like "hair"
- a bit rougher in design
- has spiky shoulder pads

 

[Frolow]

6 months sound good? As for the avatar, I'm down for anything so long as it's not Pony related.

I'll take you up on that. No way he can be in.

I like it a lot, my favorite so far. I wonder what the final final final one will look like, if we're not already looking at it.

 

[jnWake]

Reactions to today's PotD were hilarious. People have no idea how many challenges there are or how difficult they are but yet they already complained that challenges in Smash 3DS were both too easy and too few!

You have to love knee-jerk reactions.

 

[Thorakai]

I mentioned in one of the older threads that I was hoping they would drop the character names from the select screen because the non-uniform text bugged me. I'm glad they were dropped from the character select screen...but I can't decide if I like the different color background for each character yet.

Don't do that.

I thought it was another leak.

Theres nothing else to leak so it doesn't matter lol.

 

[Pyrokai]

Get rid of

Spoiler

that filth of

Dr. Mario as well as Young Link, and put Dixie in there and THEN It would be perfect.

Ugh. It bothers me so much that's he's in it.

Also, Roy AND Lucina? That's too much Marthness

The background colors help with readability, and add a little colorful flavor to an otherwise blank background.

LOL I thought the same thing, then when I realized what I was looking at I shifted all my attention to the least played character.

Coin matches are awesome. You should play more coin matches.

I don't think I've ever heard either of those sentences before.

 

[Durden77]

Coin matches are awesome. You should play more coin matches.

But are they really?

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

Coin matches are awesome. You should play more coin matches.

If there's one fucking thing that should have been cut from Smash 4, it should have been Coin Mode.
