That was awesome!
 
I'M ALIVEEEE

My head hurts so bad because of all the alcohol I've drank today but that doesn't mean I'll skip tonight's PotD, that'd be unacceptable.

GET A HOLD OF YOURSELF MAN! Sakurai see's you weep and the battle is lost!
 
I've seen Sukapon mentions a lot over the years and yet I've never seen a single opinion on the actual game, Joy Mech Fight.

This is way late, but I've played Joy Mech Fight once and thought it was a lot of fun. I only used Sukapon and his moves are pretty cool. I've been a fan of his for a long time, I've been wanting him to be playable for a really long time.
 
It's like you guys have realized that you're almost out of chances to be hyped/disappointed and are trying to make these last few REALLY count.

Not really. Although the 3DS version's almost out, there's a whole new set of unreasonable expectations for the Wii U version and subsequent DLC.
 
This is really random, but I love reading all the reactions people had to newcomer trailers, so I've compiled the post-E3 2013 ones if anyone else is interested in reading through them; there's some really funny stuff! Obviously Robin / Lucina is the best, as people are losing their fucking minds. Shame that the reaction to Shulk is relatively calm considering the leak. Anyway, here ya go:

Rosalina
Little Mac
Greninja
Mii Fighters
Palutena
Pac-Man
Robin / Lucina
Shulk
 
Wario today, to coincide with the playable events in Japan. The Wario logo was on the original press release for next week's events, so would make some sense.
 
The Robin/Lucina reveal was so great due to how unexpected it was. So many were banking on a Shulk reveal and even if it was FE, very few were holding out for Robin much less Lucina too.
 
Watch the Wii U's exclusive game mode be Smash Rush!

A clone of a game mode!
"By popular demand, we got rid of the free-for-all game modes on the Wii U! Smash Rush is the ONLY mode anyone is allowed to play!

Maybe next time you'll think twice before leaking ESRB videos around the internet! *evil laughter, mic cuts off*"

Hey, I made this image, I'm gonna get as much out of it as I can.

But the thing is? He probably is going to keep it up that long.

I still want to actually try Smash Run myself. I played it at Smash Fest, but they passed it to me in the middle of someone else's game as Fox, so I was lost for a second. Seemed to have great potential, but I want to wait to try it again myself. Just one more month!

Gematsu leak being shattered was one of our brightest moments

Awesome idea, man, commendable! Here's the version for those of us who choose to have 100 posts per page:

Rosalina
Little Mac
Greninja
Mii Fighters (and Palutena right on the next page lol)
Pac-Man
Lucina/Robin (I have to agree that this is the best damn reveal for me, the hype, the GEMATSU IS DEEEAD ambiance, it was a holy damn beautiful start to the week)
Shulk
 
I don't think we've gotten confirmation any boss aside from Yellow Devil is defeatable.
To be fair, there's not much point to calling them bosses if they're not defeatable. The Chimera in New Pork City and Birdo from Mushroom Kingdom 2 would be bosses by that definition.
 
It never really was, even though we got Robin instead of Chrom, was it?
Chrom could have been supposed to be in the roster at some point and was cut and used as an AT.

It kind of was. Between the wrongness about te Shulk reveal and the wrongness about Chrom it became apparent that the source had been out of the loop for some time.

oh I know, I just meant there was that one shining moment where we all got Sakurai'd and the world was turned upside-down and everyone shat collective bricks because it wasn't something expected.

Considering Monolith tweeting about the reveal I'd say Sakurai was going to reveal Shulk and then changed it to drum up doubt in the leak and therefore hype. He did the same thing with the All-star picture.

Or it could just be coincidence.

That more than likely means the info was old, not neccessarily wrong, tho the the mistaking chrom one is most likely wrong but it wouldnt ridiculous that Sakurai was going to use chrom but couldnt properly use him in smash

I don't think so. Monolith employees tweet things a lot that mislead people.

And in any case, Chrom isn't playable. Nor did Sakurai make it seem like he ever was in any significant way during development.

That's kind of what I was saying, but as it turns out it was wrong because it was old.

Gematsu said nothing about DHD, Dark Pit, and Bowser Jr., and everyone at the time said Chrom, Shulk, and Chorus Kids were all we had left.

Gematsu has been sufficiently proven to be dated leak info at this point.
 
I still like the theory that Chrom's model for the final smash is a bit too good and he's a shoe in for any character DLC that occurs.

Honestly, even with the leak I was just as hyped for Shulk's trailer as the Robin/Lucina trailer, granted since Smash's announcement I wanted him in the game and me actually getting my "out-there" character was quite unexpected.

That wouldn't have been possible, though, would it? IIRC, the issue of Famitsu which came out shortly after the Robin/Lucina trailer had a feature on those characters. Sakurai may be able to swap trailers at a moment's notice, but a magazine has to have its material lined up well ahead of time.
