Super Smash Bros. for 3DS & Wii U Thread 14: Snake... had a hard life

If Ice Climbers aren't present on 3DS at launch (yeah I'm one of those who thinks we may have a couple to see), and then they proceed to be absent from the Wii U at launch despite the issues with the poor little 3DS's CPU, then I will be shocked.

I mean, what reason would there be (besides rigidly adhering to roster parity to the point of semantics) for having partially complete ICs and then holding them back for the version that can handle them? Especially when you can continue to work on them and release them for 3DS as DLC when you can.

I'd get it if it were a newcomer, but these are the fucking Ice Climbers.
 
We knew a lot more about Brawl going in just because the purpose of the Dojo was to reveal nearly everything about the game.

Smash 3DS still has a lot of mysteries, like "what the hell is this even" and "just how many different final battles for Smash Run are there." Being an MP focused game I do think they get away with a lot in regards to how much they're willing to show before it becomes overkill, especially since I don't mind those things being revealed upfront when that's mainly what I want to know when I gauge how much longevity the package will provide me with.

Oh, neat, that makes sense. I didn't even realize Smash Run had final battles per se.

Well, I never....
 
shiek gets snake's grenades


zamus gets snake's final smash


falcon gets snake's ass


if i could be motivated to get off my butt long enough i would totally be working up toward that.

Apparently Mii Gunner has Snakes Nikita.

Man I hope this isn't Saks plan for taking snake out.
Anyone who liked the guy isn't going to have a character even close to being like him.
 
Question: After the release of the Game Boy Color, did you know anybody without a Game Boy Color?

I was born in 1991 and grew up near Boston, so I lived in a reasonable representation of East Coast America. Pokémon fever hit us harder than a hurricane and every child had a GBC, but I never saw anybody with an original Game Boy. I've only ever seen ONE Game Boy in the hands of a player, playing some blurred attempt at Pokémon Blue, sitting on a curb in Maine.

To this day that's the only original Game Boy I've ever seen personally.

This is not dissimilar to the DS to the DS Lite. A year after the Lite was out, that's what you had. That machine was the hands down most popular version of the system and it wasn't even as big of an update as the New 3DS.

I'm curious what it was like for other people, because my experience suggests the New 3DS will be the standard machine very quickly.

I think the difference now is that the GBC was a massive upgrade over the GB in terms of color, processing, etc. It was a self-evident improvement. I think the N3DS is going to be a bit of a harder sell, especially since handhelds aren't popular like they once were and it doesn't in and of itself indicate some massive feature upgrade that GBC did. I just don't see people running out and getting an N3DS immediately like they did with GBC vs. GB. Similarly, I think DS Lite was picked up by a lot of people who skipped the DS entirely, and I think most people who want a 3DS and have the ability to buy one have one, and may not be as eager to upgrade when the N3DS seems like a stopgap revision and not as much of a major upgrade (based on what we know about it).

Correct! I really hope that Mii Gunner would have grenade and mines ability to access in different special slots then I would be fine with that.

It would be better than nothing at this point if he's for sure not coming back even as DLC.
Though playing online will be the main hang up there.
 
I just can't with that shit man. Disagreeing with how the creator of the Smash Bros games is creating a new Smash Bros game is one thing, but retroactively framing him as a shit developer? I need to stay out of there for my own good.

See that's funny because I think he's probably one of the most exceptional game developers who's ever lived.

But you know what he made a Smash game one time that some people didn't like so maybe they have a point
 
I don't think the "Sakurai didn't make Melee 2" crap will ever really end though. That's what it boils down to.

Just like the "Ganondorf in name only" will forever be a thing it seems.
 
This post really bothers me:

Sakurai is a delusional idiot. It'd be funny if it wasn't so tragic. Smash players only get a new game every console generation, so when this turd drops, it's back to melee for another console cycle.

And before people jump on me, Yes I have got my fair share of time with the game. Yes it's actually worse than Brawl, no this will not be fixed because your boy Sakurai is too dumb to realise his game is trash.

Like....is that kind of name-calling even allowed on GAF?
