Hey guys, just to be clear

Wario
Wario-Man
Wario Bike
Kat & Ana

Kass
Kip
Kalypso
Kludge

Donkey Kong: Barrel Blast has exactly as many trophies as every Wario trophy in Super Smash Bros. Brawl

So maybe DK fans should take a break and look at some TRULY neglected series!

Kid Icarus Uprising will likely have at least five times as many trophies as Wario this time.
 
Who is afoni?

also I thought starting with guise would give away the joking
He was a guy who would troll a lot on here and got perma-banned for a joke trying to get people thinking Ice Climbers music had been uploaded on the site. Not saying you should be banned, but you gotta be careful around POTD time.

Thanks for the info, and sorry guys, I even forgot about the POtD, I'm spanish and it's 8 AM here, just wanted to share the laughs
 
Your avi gives me the creeps e_e

I miss your Trolling Luigi avatar. It was so rage-inducing for certain things. Hopefully it makes a comeback by the time Smash is out!

And the avtar? I lost an avatar bet. SkullHydra then gave me this avatar -- and I liked it a lot.

I'm still waiting for the Krystal reveal
in a posible, but far future. Please don't be that!

Haha, no worries man, the video was funny! It's just some people go kind of crazy when fake reveals are put up, though things have loosened up a lot since the leak.

I see.
Yeah, it will come back eventually :D
Not sure if by the time Smash comes out but we'll see.
I don't want you to quote it endlessly when you beat me in Smash lol

a legendary hero of smashgaf, unjustly banned

He was a joke poster, always making outlandish statements and pretending he had insider info. People inevitably took him seriously, and hilarity ensued. He was finally permabanned for saying the Japanese text in a PotD contained an Ice Climbers reference, even though the English version of that pic said nothing of the source. But people fell for it anyway.

So when you posted that "leak," it reminded me of afoni's last stand.
 

I gotta watch that trailer again, I didn't even notice.



That Miku is for PSAS.
This Miku is for Smash

God, stop with all these Miku images and GIFs...
because it makes the fact that she'll never be in Smash that much harder to deal with. :( Miku forever, ya'll!

Did you guys see this?! There is a rumor that there will be a "bluer" Smash Bros 3DS bundle for NA.

HYPE. Just gimme a date and Ill go pre order.

Hell yes. Sign me up. I will absolutely take a blue limited edition Smash XL.

Do we have anybody watching the Japanese Direct in the morning? Will we have an English recap of anything Smash-related?

Against my better judgement, I'll be waking up to watch it...
 
C'mon guys, I come to this thread with my trust on my shoulder and my heart open only to have it torn out by sweet lies of Nana and Popo.
 
Not sure if this was posted, but a quote from Sakurai in EDGE:

I think the popularity of Melee rested fundamentally on the game’s speed. The dazzling exchange of skills was the game’s most exhilarating aspect and the rough edges in terms of the game’s balance went mostly unnoticed. Even though the dynamic range of the characters was limited, the game somehow made its mark, even with hardcore fans of the genre.

Melee’s controls were, however, quite complicated and very tiring if the player really got into it in a serious way. This made the game less accessible for novice players and it basically ended up becoming a Smash Bros. game for hardcore fighting fans. I personally regret that, because I originally intended the Smash Bros. series to be for players who couldn’t handle such highly skilled games.

If tournament popularity was the most important consideration, then I think we would create a Smash Bros. game that included a multitude of fast moves with complicated controls. However, I believe this is actually the greatest shortcoming of fighting games at present, and that is the reason why I don’t do it.

Games aimed at casual users, such as Wii Sports and Wii Fit, reinvigorated the market and their success lay behind Wii’s popularity, [so] we had to make sure that Brawl would also be fun for first-time players. We also had to make sure that everyone could use the controls, such as holding the Wii Remote sideways. As a result of these considerations, overall Brawl is rather tame game; this had its advantages, but it also took away some of the excitement.

While there’s a lot of enthusiasm for tournaments on the one hand, there are also users who just give up on these sorts of games because they can’t handle the complexity and speed. While other fighting games continue to work on honing this tournament aspect, I think that we need to move in a direction where there is more of a focus on inexperienced gamers. Companies that release products that target a very vocal, visible group of gamers tend to receive good reactions and they may feel good about it, but I think that we have to pay special attention to the less vocal, not so visible group of players, or else games will just fade away.

There are so many other games out there which are geared to tournaments. It is important for us, however, to maintain the game’s status as a kind of ‘rough’ party game in which anyone can play without feeling too much pressure over winning or losing. We therefore want to keep a nice balance in which a wide variety of events can occur in the game, some of them quite outrageous. With this, Smash Bros. isn’t just a fighting game, it is an opponent-based action game.

The most important thing is that the game have breadth and depth, since we would like them to be popular with both novices and hardcore gamers. We think that people who aren’t so good at turning the tables and coming back from behind can still get enjoyment out of the [new] game, even if they turn off items and Smash Balls.

Although the pace of the game had to be lowered compared to Melee in order to achieve this balance, we have managed to keep the dynamism because we didn’t have to gear towards novice players like we did with Brawl. In fact, we recreated all characters almost from scratch. Also, I feel on a personal level that this game is more interesting than the three previous games in the series.
 
This isn't Mario Kart anymore. You're in my domain now, so get ready!

Nice knowing you already know your fate.

By the way, curious avatar.

I like Smash but I don't put the same effort on it as I do with MK.
I'll play for fun anyway. I don't have any intention to go into for glory mode. I'd get destroyed in seconds :(
