Four stances? Heh he means five. It's all good though, Shulk sounds really technical...but we already knew that.

 

[Zixmar]

Maybe DLC? Who know?

I really wish though

Most importantly to me is to see another Xenoblade character. Melia would be perfect but that's impossible to happen. So I'd be logical and wish to see Firoa or Reyn.

 

[The Captain]

Is this an actual post?

Does anyone know if there's a Smash Bros. lineup where every character is their actual size? I know official sizes have been given for almost every character, and it would be cool to compare everyone.

Can I use the Louie colors for Olimar here? Or, if that's taken, the Blue Toon Link outfit?

Peach should just be given a ponytail permanently.

I'm super disappointed that Peach and Rosalina don't have their sporting/racing outfits. Peach looks better with a ponytail too.

The real crime is that they chose Alph instead of Brittany, the best Pikmin character.

So according to Zipzo Sheik is a man in Smash 4.

*sigh* Sheik is a woman, pretending to be a man. This has been confirmed several times, most recently by Bill Trinen.

I do think Alph could've been a nice full fledged clone. Replace Olimar's purple pikmin with rock pikmin and make him lighter with slightly different attack attributes. Olimar could've kept his old tether recovery while Alph got the flying pikmin as a recovery or something. But really I don't mind him being a palette swap.

I think the best thing would be to remove White and Purple Pikmin with Rock Pikmin, which show up rarely but do incredible damage when thrown (but they don't stick, like in the game).

Take what you want!

Classic Falcon?

You better add me.. UNKNOWN-iXi

I'll message

Spoiler

spam

you my 3DS code once I get it, if you have that. You might even stumble upon some Kaillera peeps when we play ;]

 

[Ricky 7]

Well maybe we'll finally get Goku playable!

Well Dunban is in the game and he has the same voice as Vegeta so Goku is already practically confirmed.

 

[munchie64]

Reposting this (first and last time, honest) just for anyone who missed it in the post rush before.

Hey guys, yesterday when the hype was full force with the demo, I ended up making this little music video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6W1ipor-fUw

I'm hoping you guys watch it and like it, maybe give me some ideas for improvements or maybe another one? I always like practising editing and building up hype.

ALL ABOARD THE HYPE TRAIN!

 

[Zalman]

I actually wonder why they didn't go all-out and made Brittany, Charlie and Louie alts as well. They would've had all the Pikmin characters, and it's not like there are many of them.

 

[The Captain]

Take what you want!

Oh cool! Is there a clean version like what the other users have?

 

[Ryce]

Louie and especially Charlie are way too big.

Don't forget the President (he's playable in Pikmin 2).

Louie and especially Charlie are way too big.

You can just change the face and keep the body type the same.

To be fair, the characters all have different sizes and proportions.

I at least want colors for every character (Louie, President, Brittany, Charlie).

 

[J@hranimo]

Oh god, he's going to talk about the abysmal stage selection...

 

[SuperSah]

Jesus, all of those Pikmin character designs are awful.

Alph looks stoned, Brittany looks overly stereotypically dorky, and Charlie is well..uh.

Why you gotta be like that.

So you're saying they're too big to be in smash

 

[Zalman]

Oh, I'm dumb. Didn't even consider this.

 

[Neoriceisgood]

Can't make one atm, but maybe someone else is willing to help you out.

If not I'll do it later.

 

[Ryce]

That would look awful and wouldn't even be Charlie anymore.

 

[Toxi]

Oh god, he's going to talk about the abysmal stage selection...

Who's gonna talk about the awful stage choices?

 

[The Captain]

Oh, I'm dumb. Didn't even consider this.

Nah, it's fine. It really isn't too noticeable when playing the game, and all six of the playable characters function identically to one another. Little differences like size and height make no difference in the actual game itself.

 

[J@hranimo]

Who's gonna talk about the awful stage choices?

Zipzo. He's doing an AMA of sorts on his Twitch channel. Although I guess he isn't talking about it right now he's trying to activate slow mode and stuff.

edit: Nevermind he's talking about them now!

 

[Jawmuncher]

I haven't been to hung up on the stages.
Looks decent enough to me. Already know ill end up just cycling a few anyway.

 

[The Captain]

That's like having Waluigi be an alternate costume for Luigi by just shoving Waluigi's head onto Luigi's body.

 

[Zalman]

I'm pretty sure height is the reason why we don't have Classic Sonic, and one of the reasons why Lucina is her own character.

 

[Toxi]

This is a fantastic idea.

 

[Josephl64]

I saw this picture like 3 times before noticing the ones other than Link. FD looks great, Alph too!

Nice, Rosalina looks good in that alt ~

Love that AKB48 vid, wish it was longer since it looked amazing watching them duke it out

 

[Gilbals]

Well Dunban is in the game and he has the same voice as Vegeta so Goku is already practically confirmed.

Guess who voiced him in the movie? We're already there

 

[Forkball]

Zipzo is streaming a Q&A on Twitch about Smash. THE DAYS OF TEXT ARE BEHIND US

 

[Beelzebufo]

He voices him in the game too!

 

[Tan]

Shuttle Loop not actually a loop. What.

 

[J@hranimo]

Mmmmmm delicious Metaknight nerfs >

I do hope he's still decent though.

 

[Gilbals]

He voices him in the game too!

So what you're saying is...all we need is a Dimps logo and Smash 4 is Tenkaichi 4?

 

[IntelliHeath]

Zipzo is streaming a Q&A on Twitch about Smash. THE DAYS OF TEXT ARE BEHIND US

Can anyone provide me the information that he spoke of in stream?

 

[Boss Doggie]

I wonder if corocoro news will overtake smash news this week

 

[random25]

Can anyone provide me the information that he spoke of in stream?

Basically the ones he mentioned in reddit/smashboards last time, though he elaborates on some points.

He's currently discussing some Metaknight.

 

[Ryce]

Shuttle Loop not actually a loop. What.

I feel like it might have an additional input like Shulk's Air Slash that nobody is trying. Famitsu said he spins around after the first hit and strikes again.

 

[Neoriceisgood]

Can anyone provide me the information that he spoke of in stream?

In my opinion nothing new, he's essentially just using more words to describe his text posts.

 

[J@hranimo]

Can anyone provide me the information that he spoke of in stream?

From what I recall he's been reiterating things about characters he typed before like Robin and Shulk. He talked about Alph and how he has 4 alt costumes and Olimar has his 4, so in total there's 8 alts.

He talked about some of the stages in the demo. He says Arena Ferox is ok. Everything is usual #BANNED fare, but still fun.

He mentions Fox's Wolf alt color. He takes back what he said about Wolf and says it doesn't deconfirm him being in the game. He just said that initially because he showed that alt to people around him at the event and everyone was like "Poor Wolf!" and stuff.

 

[Jawmuncher]

This is dumb but i'll ask here. Can you buy WiiU Digital Game Codes at Gamestop?
I have a 5 dollar off coupon and wouldn't mind getting Earthbound. The thing is though it has to be used in store.

I think you can do it online, but not sure about in store.

I know people have bought DLC in store so that was the main reason I asked.
Since I would just grab it online if the coupon let me.

 

[Drago]

Yes, you should be able to. I've seen Earthbound codes (among many others) being sold at my Gamestop before.

Oh yeah, there's no denying it now.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Ok cool will head down there in a bit then.
Since it says the coupon is usable on anything aside from Wallet type stuff.

If we got trophy of Lucas and Wolf, It's possible that we could take it as disconfirmed because I can't really see that they would add trophies to the game if they are being considered to be DLC characters since you have to earn those trophies by playing with dlc characters in classic mode or so.

Who know! We might not get DLC characters after all.

 

[IntelliHeath]

I went to get what Zipzo posted this morning, here's the quote from Smashboards.



So Ben was probably a liar and D1 was stupid enough to believe him -- which in turn because Ben had D1's backing made everyone else believe him. :/

I kinda suspected that he might be lying when he started to share a lot of combos. It's something that you can't really find out in first session but I could be wrong with that. Also Palutena can do 0% to KO with Mario really ticked off my fake sense. I went with the hype instead.

 

[Jawmuncher]

That's a lot of people's one last hope.
We need to stay as mindful as we can.

__________

They sell the codes in store a friend just called for me.
It's all on the computer so you gotta ask at the counter.

 

[Clov]

Given that even Mariokart is getting DLC, I'm sure Smash will get some too. I'm hoping for characters. I need Wolf back, at least.

 

[georly]

We can only hope, but mario kart is 100% internal nintendo... smash bros is being developed in collaboration w/ sakura/namcobandai, and is basically almost all external.

We can hope that either the contract is extended for DLC (or DLC was included to begin with), or that once namcobandai are done w/ the bulk, it can be moved to internal nintendo, w/ sakurai's supervision. No way to know for sure, though.

Ahh the unfortunate truth. I'm ready to accept that fact since the only character I really wanted to return in Mewtwo.

I'm going back to logic and believing the ESRB leak is the full roster, because why would they not show all the characters unlocked.
