Super Smash Bros. for 3DS & Wii U Thread XV: Kübler-Ross Edition
- Thread starter IntelliHeath
- Start date
Double dip, that's what I'll do, I'll get it both digitally and physically, unless that's a problem for Lucina's fat ass.
Also no new Kirby stage...
C'mon, Triple Deluxe just came out!I've said it before and I'll say it again: Smash has always struggled in the stage department. You get some winners here and there, but a lot of the time they're bland, generic, and uncreative. Then when they start getting interesting, there's usually some kind of really frustrating element, like walk-offs and stage bosses.
It's like: I really love the setting and design of the Wii U Fire Emblem Colosseum. It's a tad generic, but it looks really cool and I love the "pop up" platforms mechanic. But nope, it's a walk-off, and I hate those kinds of stages. If you want to go with the FD version with ledges, it takes away the pop-up platforms. So frustrating!
There's always a lot of missed opportunities.

Gaol's Castle is more interesting than the Reset Forest?

Oh, and ZaHiro (one of the Reddit guys who played the demo) told me he couldn't hear whether or not they were still using the Brawl victory themes for veterans.
That'd be pretty dang lazy if true.
look at how wrong you are

Smash 64 had a pretty good one, bar Peach's Castle.

I suppose that's one reason why there isn't a Triple Deluxe stage.
New F-Zero stage, and a new stage that looks like Magicant from the first Mother.

Isn't the Gameboy stage Kirby themed?Also no new Kirby stage...

I'm convinced the Game Boy stage is the Kirby stage.
Now, what will the Wii U one be...?
It would appear there is a new F-Zero stage based on the SNES game, complete with Mode 7 graphics. And there is a stage that might be Magicant from the Mother series.
yes to both
Thought it was confirmed Bowser at least had a new victory theme?

I can understand Star Fox but Kirby also seems like a huge missed opportunity. It seems like this time around DK, Metroid and Star Fox got the shaft in Smash with no newcomers(Star Fox going down one) and in general little to poor representation in terms of items and stages. Well theres Earthbound/Mother as well which doesn't even have a stage(yet)and increasing chances of a cut character.

If so, I'd imagine that they would bother to change them all as a result.
Wow, how awful. A large group of people who are obsessed with one Japanese person and complain whenever he/she does something that they don't like. I don't think I've seen anything like that around here.

Oh yeah, I think I mentioned that to him? Might've been the other guy tho.

Need to know Ike colors/costumes.
Would be a missed opportunity to not get a Vanguard or Priam alt.

He has no alt costumes, just colors.

I'm already buying 3 copies though
(one for me, one for my fiance, and Wii U)She may need both digital and physical copies for the game to handle it all.

I was bummed out when I found out that the 3DS (the console) didn't have the Pictochat app.
A remastered Hyrule Castle stage would be amazing.
I assume the Gameboy stage will change through a bunch of different Gameboy games, not just Kirby. It was never called a Kirby stage in the PotD, and picture of the stage showed the start-up screen.
Maybe it'll have Metroid 2 and Donkey Kong Land.

I would have assumed there would be another Pictochat stage but for some reason the 3DS doesn't have Pictochat. No reason for it not to be there, I mean, it couldn't have been hard to implement. In fact it was probably quite simple.
OricWindstar
Member
I like Pictochat. 
I literally lol'd the moment I knew Jungle Japes made a third appearance.
I mean... seriously? so lame.
"I don't like the reset forest" is a better description.
Tropes be damned.
EDIT: Actually, the best choice would have to be the lunar sanctum or an Aurum stage.

We don't know yet. Everything seems to suggest that, but the only footage we've seen of the stage is just the Nintendo logo floating down.

Yeah, Sakurai was clearly blowing smoke out of his ass when he said that. I'm beyond disappointed. I'm actually disgusted that they wasted such a perfect opportunity to represent some of Nintendo's less popular handheld titles. Mario gets FOUR new stages, all of which are based on 3DS games that they ripped assets from, while franchises like DK and Wario get fuck all. This is what people should be complaining about. Not the roster.

Maybe it'll have Metroid 2 and Donkey Kong Land.
He's showing it with monochrome(-ish) Dedede and Kirby, and the ESRB select screen showed a shot of Green Greens from KDL. They seem like hints that it's a Kirby stage.

i hope that immediately after the startup screen the gameboy stage becomes this and doesn't change to anything else
Hispanic! At the Disco

What? How does a picture of the gameboy start-up screen, containing the only 2 monochrome colored characters, give an allusion to any particular game's stage?
EDIT: didn't know about the ESRB leak stuff with the gameboy stage
sorry!Also you guys are crazy! I think Mushroomy Kingdom and Pictochat stages are great
OmegaSmash
Member
I liked PictoChat, but Mushroomy Kingdom is objectively garbage and there's nothing good about the stage (except the music). I'd even say it's tied with Icicle Mountain as worst scrolling stage in Smash.

I believe it's a Kirby stage for two reasons:
1. The stage roster leak shows a shot of Green Greens. Not entirely conclusive, but I think a general Game Boy icon would just show the logo screen or something.
2. I think it'd be pretty dang weird if the Green Greens theme was playing while you're in a Metroid II segment or w/e.

Agreed. SmashGAF is just being delusional.
Plot twist: Smash GAF actually does like Pictochat
Edit: And now two more?!

while people in general seem to love peering into the lives of famous people sometimes the obessiveness some of the japanese fans have for their idols/voice actors is sometimes quite insane lol
New stage obviously being the best choice aside, Rumble falls or jungle japes as the retro stage...

For me, at least, the problem isn't so much the number of old stages as the selection. Green Hill Zone, Mushroomy Kingdom, Flat Zone 2, and Brinstar are all stages that absolutely did not need to come back. There are so many better stages in Brawl that could have been ported over just as easily as those ones were.
Sorry, so many crazy things are said around here with a straight face that it's pretty hard to tell sometimes.

You are an evil man
Those are the only two characters with gameboy color schemes though that we know of.
1. Suggestive but nowhere near conclusive.
2. Green Greens could play on Halberd.
