We all do but... with a roster of over 50 characters, I can understand why it doesn't exist anymore.

Nice try

 

[balladofwindfishes]

Nice try

There are 51 characters in the current leak

Hope that lesson wasn't a permanent one.

He was a junior, so it was an automatic permaban.

Yep, so all the fighter will share the same batch except for Miis who will get three specific BTT stages because they're special.

 

[Hypemaster]

I prefer horizontal scrolling stages over vertical ones.

Nah there are rare occasions where the mods have a kind heart for juniors...tho this is likely not one of those times.

Yeah, mods don't really have a tolerance for causal homophobia.

Mii Fighters each count as one character? I wasn't sure if they would be counted as one akin to Pokemon Trainer.

 

[BGBW]

That's why Rainbow Cruise is the best. It's both horizontal and vertical scrolling!

 

[Finale Fireworker]

Mii Fighters each count as one character? I wasn't sure if they would be counted as one akin to Pokemon Trainer.

Pokémon Trainer is counted as three characters.

 

[balladofwindfishes]

Pokemon trainer was counted as 3 in Brawl. Nintendo and Sakurai both counted them as 3 in the character total.

 

[Kriken]

Hey guys how is it going here toda-

Well, that happens when fags want gay swordmen as characters

Spoiler

I'll come back later

 

[munchie64]

Nice try

Current known roster + Ice Climbers + Ridley + Isabelle = over 50

Spoiler

/s

 

[ahoyhoy]

Pokemon trainer was counted as 3 in Brawl. Nintendo and Sakurai both counted them as 3 in the character total.

Didn't the official commercial say "Over 40" though, implying less than 50? I suppose they just didn't want to reveal a specific number before the game was released and preferred to keep speculation rampant

Gotta dig non-spoiling commercials.

Spoiler

Also over 50 automatically is also over 40, so they aren't lying!

Over 40 slots

Over 50 movesets

BOOM

 

[Makai]

There will be over 50 character slots for sure.

 

[Mariolee]

Funnily enough I've had some of my most fun 1 on 1 encounters on Pokefloats.

THEY SERIOUSLY NEED TO BRING IT BACK.

I'm so mad that they hadn't brought it back in Brawl and it seems like the 3DS version doesn't have it either.

He was a junior, so it was an automatic permaban.

I was banned as a junior during the Dark Knight shooting thread and was banned for breaking the rules when I really hadn't. Fortunately I was brought back. I don't think this dude will be back anytime soon however.

 

[Subtle]

Whats your avatar from? I feel like I recognize it, but I can't quite place it.

Ashe from League of Legends

Never been a fan of scrolling stages. But then again, Hyrule Temple used to be my favorite stage ever.

Well, over 40 isn't wrong even of it's over 50. I think that with the amount of characters officially revealed (35?) saying over 50 would be sort of a too much information thing.

Or maybe it's because there are only 49 characters. What do I know. I'm a bear. I suck the heads of fish.

 

[theprodigy]

not necessarily, but with such a homophobic post he's almost certainly gone for good

 

[Beelzebufo]

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking too, especially after hearing that Ash has a lot of big news that he can't tell us about. I doubt they'll be available at launch though, it probably has something to do with Smash 6.

 

[MetalGuardian]

I absolutely love it when the audience starts clapping in-rhythm during Rainbow Cruise on Smashing... Live! So many good feels

 

[ffdgh]

Hyrule temple is a large stage done right. You can almost always have a good time there.

 

[Kensho]

ICs also got pretty screwed over in stages.

If Summit at least had grabbable edges and no slipperly floors (I know it's an ice stage, but it doesn't make it not annoying), I would've liked it a lot more. The music is damn great too, how it changes when the stage goes through each phase.

I kind of liked Summit, yeah it was a little small and slippery, but it was unique and the speed it got when changing from phase to phase was awesome!

i hate Icicle Mountain so fucking much I got a headache just for seeing the picture.

 

[PhilipDoesMatter]

I can't help my hype anymore. 1 month to go.

 

[Huge Succeeded]

There are 51 characters in the current leak

?

is there dlc/hidden characters that are assumed to fill out the rest of the leaked image of the roster?

 

[batfax]

Some of the worst Smash stages ever, bar none. I'd nominate Spear Pillar, but that one is both awful and the greatest stages ever. But overall, Smash did have some really good stages as well. Luigi's Mansion, Delphino Isle, Halberd, and Lylat Cruise (really hoping it comes back in Smash U (minus the tilting, but I doubt it)) were some of my favorites.

Am I a bad person for legitimately liking both of these stages? They're both great fun to mess around on and completely change friend's playstyles when we end up with 'em on Random.

 

[Jawmuncher]

I absolutely hating moving stages as well.
Because it's too easy to get stuck. Which is why I prefer stuff like Delfino Plaza instead. Moving but not as annoying.

I hate 75m, but I thought Mario Bros. was a fun change of pace.

 

[Star Falcon]

Poke Floats was brilliant. We unlocked it during an afternoon of 4 player SSBM shortly after it came out, and it was a total surprise.

I liked Big Blue and Brinstar Depths also for the chaos factor.

75m is the worst stage across all of the first three games, IMO.

 

[Demon Lizardman]

The Baardhimself returns?

 

[Red Arremer]

?

48 characters on the roster + 3 Miis = 51 characters.
That is notwithstanding the possibility of additional characters that weren't on the leak.

Mario Bros. can be fun to screw around on, 75m just fails

The three miis are not pictured.

 

[ryanofcall]

Poké Floats was one of our most played stage in SSBM. Just because it was so odd with all of the floating but not moving figures of Pokémon. I think I unlocked it with my sister ant we had such a blast, first time we played it

 

[ffdgh]

You gotta love being forced to fight ness/lucas and the 2 DKs on newpork or 75m in classic and allstar...It more of a test of patience to kill any of them due to how absurdly big the stages are.

 

[Finale Fireworker]

I have never had any fun at all on 75m. It's the only stage I have turned off Random.

 

[ec0ec0]

i cant.

 

[SmithnCo]

Everyone always ends up going to the top right because of the dumb fire things and ladders everywhere on 75m.

 

[BGBW]

They should have based it on 50m since that's the level hardly anyone remembers due to its NES absence.

 

[Neoriceisgood]

On 75M my fights invariably end up taking place in the top right corner.

 

[Mory Dunz]

Anyone have any idea when the adventure mode for Wii U will be revealed?


I assume after Smash 3DS is out so people will double dip...

 

[Zero173]

Maybe character specific target smash was a sacrifice made for Subspace so they can bring it back this time. Or maybe this is just wishful thinking...

 

[Clov]

Tisk tisk tisk...This is a usually family friendly topic so keep that junk out of here. Hope that lesson wasn't a permanent one.

I hope it is. Homophobes shouldn't be pitied.

 

[IntelliHeath]

After looking over all of the newcomer’s special moves and getting a sense for how Sakurai tends to design movesets, here are my Duck Hunt predictions:

Standard Special Move - Zapper
Hold B and move the control stick to aim a reticle, and release the button to fire a shot complete with flashing glass pane visual and retro sound effect. The dog doesn’t hold a gun or anything like that — it’s assumed that you are the first-person hunter like in the original Duck Hunt (this helps justify the character name since it comprises the dog, duck, and hunter).

Side Special Move - Clay Pigeon Trap
The dog pushes his front paw down onto a spring-loaded device that fires a clay disc at a slightly upward angle. This device will remain on the stage for a short time, and it can either be destroyed by attacking it or used again by approaching it and inputting the side special move command.

Up Special Move - Fly Away
This is the recovery everyone expects Duck Hunt to have — the duck flies away and the dog grabs hold of its feet. Mechanically, it’s similar to Villager and Olimar’s up specials.

Down Special Move - Scent Trail
The dog sniffs the ground, and he’ll either look confused, which does nothing, or his ears will perk up and he’ll wag his tail, which gives him a ~5 second speed boost.

Final Smash - Hunting Season
This is an enhanced version of the standard special that’s reminiscent of Snake and Zero Suit Samus’ Final Smash. Your duck flies away and the dog jumps off-screen, and you have 5-10 seconds to shoot at flying ducks (to recover health) or the opponents (to KO them).

That was interesting idea you had there. I have a feeling that it might be something complete different than we would expect.

While the roster is pretty good (outside of the probable IC cut) the stage selection is the only disappointing part honestly. no new dk, starfox, or Yoshi stage while getting 4 new mario stages hurts

I think Nintendog might be for Duck Hunt but who know if he's in *shrugs*

 

[Kinsei]

I like New Pork City. It's a fun stage.

 

[Ahnez]

Everything but the top right corner of 75m are stage hazards.. and that corner is also a walkoff

So, nope

 

[Camjo-Z]

I can usually tolerate most Smash Bros. stages, but there is one exception:

Where are you even supposed to fight? The lone leaf on the left is too small (and half the time too slippery to walk on), the ones at the top are too close to the blast line, and the leaves on the right have an annoying gap in the middle. This is why you don't lazily port stage designs from other games that have mechanics that don't work with Smash (see also: Mario Bros. and 75m).

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

Adventure Mode is dead.
