Yep. There's nothing coming out between now and then that excites me either.

I guess there's Hyrule Warriors, but I can't say I'm excited for it.

Lucky for me, it's Persona 4 Arena Ultimax but it is coming out like 3 days before Smash 3DS. Yeah, I'm going to ignore P4AU for awhile.
 
Kinda disappointed in Dark Samus alt since they could have used the actual Dark Samus model. If they were just gonna color paint the suit they could have gave us the Phazon Suit at least.

Since I like Black Armor and stuff.
Using the actual Dark Samus model would be kinda confusing when an assist trophy releases Dark Samus.

It also would feel weird. This isn't an actual Dark Samus alt, this is Samus colored to look like Dark Samus. It's not like the Koopalings where you're supposed to be playing as another character. Dark Samus has some very unusual abilities and mannerisms (Like floating around everywhere or maniacal laughter) that really require her to be her own character, or at least a very loose clone.

I'm not too big on traditional fighters (Maybe Pokken can change that), and even if I was, I still need to complete P4G.

I'm stuck on the
Creepy baby that can gather pixels around it to become a retro game hero.

Luckily for me Desiny and Hyrule Warriors

Oh shit, I completely forgot about Destiny. I really enjoyed the beta.
 
Only 3 weeks! It's way better than Brawl's.
The time is going to be slow the more I think about it. :P

Plan to get super mario 3D world and maybe Hyrule warriors sometime this month. It'll keep me busy. I also still play Mario kart 8 with the gaf. So that too. :P

Technically, it wouldn't be Dark Samus herself, just Samus wearing her armour, like in the Hypermode death sequence in Corruption.
 
Anyone mind linking to the other "Xenoblade Character Narrates Shulk's Trailer?"

I've just seen Reyn and Shulk.

That was the first boss in P4G I didn't get stuck on, incidentally enough.

Anyways, games I'm using to pass the time were gonna be Minecraft and Destiny...but there's just no way in hell I'll get enough enjoyment out of them by next Friday to make them worth it, so I think I'm just gonna replay some older games for the time being.

Same. the beta was the best ad the game could ever deliver to me.
 
I heard an argument that Mario is over-represented in Smash 4 and that the game is becoming "Super Mario and Friends". This is ridiculous.

Looking at the representation of Mario through the series:

Smash 64: 1/6th of the roster (1/4th if you count Yoshi)

Melee: 1/5th (1/4 if you count yoshi)

Brawl: 1/9th ( 1/6th if you count Wario and Yoshi)

Smash 4: 1/7th (1/5th if you count wario and Yoshi)

Mario is proportionately less represented then it used to be
 
I know especially once vids start popping up

I'm going to try to ignore them until the game releases. It's going to be hard. Especially I decided to go full blackout on zelda wii u after the first debut trailer. So this one is going to be much harder for me to not watch new videos. :P
 
Been playing ocarina of time 3d and have twilight princess coming tomorrow. These will keep me busy

Just a little warning. Twilight Princess is basically OoT 2.0 It's a fantastic game (Although I think it's the worst 3D Zelda), but you might get burnt out if you play it right after OoT.
 
Mario getting FOUR NEW STAGES, plus a Retro, in the 3DS Version is pretty messed up though compared to everyone else.

Maybe Teslagrad would be up your alley!

How's OoT goin', how far are you?

LOL Kinsei, great minds:

I still say they're way too similar to play back to back like that :(

Don't get me wrong, I hope you dig it. I just wouldn't have recommended playing the two back to back. Hopefully you love both. BTW, keep in mind the Wii TP has the maps flipped.

Persona fan here. That is such a great boss fight and you should try to keep on trucking. Destiny is a game that could see some play time before Smash launches.

I agree, and I sincerely hope it's not the final stage roster. I have no complaints about Mario having a lot of stages, but it, Zelda, and Pokemon are the only franchises with more than one stage...and even than, it has more than Zelda and Pokemon combined!

Yeah, it sucks that it seems like everyone except Mario either gets a new stage (or stages for Pokemon and Zelda), and misses out on a retro, or gets a retro stage, and misses out on a new stage.

I'm not quite sure what the hyper mode death sequence is supposed to be. It could be Samus' armor transformed into that shape and just coincidentally happened to resemble Dark Samus, but it also could be that Dark Samus possessed corrupted Samus and made her look that way (Like what kinda happened with Rundas in the cutscene before his boss battle) or it could be that the scene is not meant to be taken literally and just represents Dark Samus winning when Samus falls to phazon corruption.

Anyway, it would probably just confuse players, especially with Dark Samus being an actual assist trophy. If we got an alternate costume, I'd rather get the PED or the Light Suit or even just a "classic" version of the Varia Suit.

I think these are the people who count all Mario reps, Yoshi, Wario and DK reps as Mario. I feel as though all actual Mario reps are deserving of their spots.
 
My japanese is not that good, and I'm on mobile here, but still.. I will try at least Shulk specials.. :p

Neutral Special: Monado Arts (changes following the same order shown in the trailer)

Side Special: Back Slash (Cant read the description, sorry :p. But it says something about the damage, I believe it causes more damage if hits in the back, like Nosferatu)

Up Special: Air Slash (Jump up and slash. Looks like you can cancel it)

Down Special: Vision (Counter lol)

Final Smash: Chain Attack

Sorry about the lack of detail..

I don't even try to fight it I'm weak lol

I don't think I will get burnt out I'm in the mood for some sword action
 
Yoshi and Wario, I included in my calculations. I don't think DK should be considered though. And definitely not Diddy Kong. Smash DK is Rare's DK, not Mario's DK.
 
Honestly, the issue with new stages would sting less if the two versions shared stage rosters.

I mean, it would still suck balls that there isn't a new Metroid stage besides Pyrosphere, but at least it would actually give the 3DS a new Metroid stage.

LOL Kinsei, great minds:

It's going good haven't much time to play but when I do no complaints. I just learned epona song and went to get the mask for the guards kid at the gate to death mountain.
 
As a believer of the Trophy Quiz theory, I still think we will get a Metroid representative.

It will be a Space Pirate. A regular Space Pirate. And you guys will like it.

Mario is the king and will always be. Also, they're all from different series. When Zelda, Metroid and all your other favorite series diversify the same way, then maybe they'll get the same number of stages.

75 m disagrees.

I'd actually love it if done well.

Never said they should. It's the Mario and Friends bros who believe that. I would hardly even count Wario now as he has a lot of style outside of the Mario mainline universe from Warioware.
 
It's sort of weird Back Slash will hurt Bowser more from the back than the front since, y'know, giant shelled back.

Golden Plains and Mushroom Kingdom U are from the same series. Ditto for Mario Galaxy and 3D Land (well, if you consider 3D Mario it's own series instead of just throwing all the "main series" platformers under the same umbrella).

If any generic enemy deserves a space in Smash, it's Shy Guy as a Yoshi Rep.

Seriously, so much potential there.
 
Isn't that supposed to be getting a physical release sometime?

I actually had forgotten about the game entirely though. I kind of want to check it out.

Yes, I want to say in November. It's not supposed to be the longest game, though, at least based on the HLTB page for the PC version.

Sweet. Early days yet!

The Monado generally hurts
robots
more than
humans
, so it's not unusual for it to
do more damage to something more solid
.

I looked around Twitter some, and apparently it's coming 'later this fall'. So I'll look forward to that. Hopefully it hits before Smash Wii U so I have a chance to play it. And shorter is fine with me, I barely have time these days.
Sweet. Early days yet!
Precious memories. And many yet ahead. Enjoy it!
It's still surreal for me to think they replaced the SE for the NA version.

The "bowling" sounds way more suiting for Smash, imo.
I hadn't heard of it. You mean the Japanese SSB 64 has different sounds, or Brawl? Either way I'm curious and I'll check it out.
