I got Marth at 6 right last week. This week, Ness at 5.

 

[Drago]

I got my #1 newcomer today, so obviously I'm also getting my #1 veteran tonight.

Wahaha!

 

[Nikokuno]

Hmmm, I really hope that we are getting street pass update tmw

I don't see what we can get.

 

[ffdgh]

I don't exactly get it. But I still laughed.

Peach time? I like how marth's speech bubble text is more elegant than Ike's lol.

 

[FSLink]

Uh, nope
15 minutes is the one where you have to survive that long, right?
And the first alloys are the easiest

Ness or someone else with a good double jump, don't kill anything, constantly jump from one side of the stage to another using double jump

The new method is just using Master Hand doing the glitch. He can't die so just leave the game on for 15 min.

Copying and pasting something I wrote up in another forum:



Any arguments?

I actually do find that argument pretty interesting. If you add in all of the cut veterans - Wolf, Lucas, Ice Climbers, hell toss in Mewtwo - and things still line up just fine. The biggest change that could happen is the clones being pushed down to the bottom row, which would only make the entire screen setup look nicer in my opinion.

So, yeah, I'm definitely keeping an open mind with all of this. Assuming the worst, of course, but either some unlockable vets remaining, possible launch DLC, or whatever, is definitely something to keep in mind.

So has that previous tweet by D1 stating that custom moves could be selected from the character select menu been proven false? I thought I saw something about it this morning but I haven't seen anything else on it since.

 

[oreomunsta]

Oh wow, this is a fantastic idea. I'm totally onboard with this!

This would be so great. I would definitely want to be a part of it. Even if you didn't get your favorite character or franchise represented the way you wanted it to, Sakurai has put so much amazing content and love into this series. He deserves it.

Sweet! Maybe once we get this going more people will want to contribute... I don't know where to start =3

He knows what he must do to earn my happiness.
Or else it'll be a backhanded compliment.

"Thanks for making smash my favorite fighter of all time! Too bad you cut Snake so it's not as good though"

Just want this to be nice, is all ( ._.)

That was us. /v/ sent NoA the CONGRATS ON E3 card. /b/ has an even worse reputation than /v/ so I doubt they sent anyone anything resembling a card.

Also I'd join in if we agree to make it in the silhouette of Ridley. It's about sending a message.

That's my mistake. You're right that it was /v. I realized my mistake while I took my dog out. If /b made it, the cards would be put together into a swatsika or penis shape lol

Our own Masked Man confirmed it to be true!

 

[Shadow Hog]

Does anyone have a link to the point in a thread where people started realizing how well Sal Romano's guess matched the e3 reveal? I want to see that madness unfold.

My unlikely predictions: Little Mac, Pac-Man, Animal Crossing Guy, Mega Man, Wii Fit Trainer, Mii.

WHAT DO YOU KNOW

(Also TIL it's "EmCeeGramr", not "EmCeeGamr", I feel like my life is a lie)

the cake discussion was used as a metaphor of melee vs. brawl

it was another file in the "neogaf can't do metaphors for shit" folder

On the contrary, our very own Masked Man confirmed it

Edit: agh, beaten!

 

[J@hranimo]

NESS! NESS! NESS!

 

[IntelliHeath]

I don't see what we can get.

I meant Sakurai's explantation on Street Pass Feature for Smash 3DS.

 

[RadioJoNES64]

Our own Masked Man confirmed it to be true!

Well that's good to hear. Not many fighting games in general offer move customization, so seeing it in smash and hopefully being accepted by the fighting game community will be pleasant.

 

[Vuapol]

This is the beginning of the Top 5! All I'll say is you won't want to miss this one...

Uh oh, sounds like a shocking one tonight. Could the great Captain have fallen this low?

 

[munchie64]

What Masked Man said:

It appears over the character portraits while you're choosing a character.

1) turn customizations on
2) select a character
3) select your custom specials > window closes
4) press start > stage select time

 

[Kinsei]

I found my Melee disc! Now it's time to start a new file and see if I can get everything (trophies included) before Smash 3DS comes out.

This is the real megaton here.

If my argument is correct sadly I can't expect Lucas though, Ness is pretty much in the middle of "single character reps."

Edit: If you meant with the clone corner, maybe but I would find that weird considering Falco and Toon Link.

 

[Fireblend]

Intelliheath is working on the 3DS OT, to be posted this week. There won't be a jp specific OT afaik

 

[Makai]

Show of hands who wants this. I'd rather we just keep one thread. It's Smash Bros, come on. No way you're avoiding character spoilers.

 

[oreomunsta]

If you are right, previous placement of characters on the CSS shouldn't really matter. Lucas could be placed beside Ness and it wouldn't be too weird, would it?

 

[Ryce]

Wolf, Mewtwo, Ice Climbers, and Chorus Kids fit perfectly into Vashzaron's theory, so I obviously want it to be correct.

 

[-Horizon-]

I love you Horizon!

Finally got my laptop, and tried out messing with pics for the first time...it looks meh, but then again I didn't know what layers, transparency, the magic paintbrush, or anything was so it's the result of a mini tutorial for me

It takes time to get used to those two. I had a class a couple years back where they taught photoshop basics so I had some idea of what to do in gimp and paint.net. Still took me a while to get back up to speed. And that was just the basics. I still can't do those cool advanced things some people can do in photoshop.

Really, I just use paint.net to get the transparency and resize while I use gimp to layer them.

 

[daripad]

I wonder if Yoshi is changed or not compared to Brawl

 

[Vashzaron]

Yes but that would be bit of a blow in my argument as what I think strengthens it is the fact that there is seemingly a clear line of "single character reps" when they aren't being used as padding.

 

[Hispanic! At the Disco]

Not for Brawl, because we knew the Wii couldn't handle DLC

Glad to know there wasn't much false hope

I'm sure there were the few though. The ones that just REALLY WANTED GENO.

 

[MiguelMexMIstery]

Bad Koro-chan, bad.

Show of hands who wants this. I'd rather we just keep one thread. It's Smash Bros, come on. No way you're avoiding character spoilers.

Yup, it's inevitable.

Just asking to see if we were going to migrate after this week or not.

 

[nerdbot]

Mario: 6 Reps
Pokémon: 6 Reps

Nintendo's two biggest IPs. So it checks out.

Totally works out. xD You can even end the "major series" rows perfectly with Pokémon too!

Squeeze Lucas in there and you have the perfect Smash Bros and if they never added anyone new I would be satisfied fully.

#GAFNoAnaolgies

I've always thought his username said Gamr

 

[Mysterious]

Based on the CSS, I agree with this too.

It just a fits perfectly. Even if you substitute Dixie for Mii Fighters.

 

[IntelliHeath]

I'm. It's Smash 3DS so if we didn't cap the threed then it will be for NA/EU too

 

[Hispanic! At the Disco]

From the things I've heard, he's wonderful in this game and changed in good ways. It makes me wish I didn't think his play style was awkward.

 

[Dimitri LH]

Im calling Shiek/Zelda next on the vet list!

 

[PadWarrior]

Link is next I think.

 

[Luqi]

It'll be Pikachu.

Night guys!

 

[oreomunsta]

We are talking about the CSS that has G&W up there in the top row, and treating Shulk as if he were 3rd party though =p

 

[Macka]

You unlock them on the selection screen when you turn on customization.

Already been confirmed that this isn't the case.

 

[Fandangox]

It'll be Pikachu.

Night guys!

lol

 

[Captainbojanglesiii]

It'll be Pikachu.

Night guys!

Pikachu at 16 and 5? Pikachu really stepped up his game this time around

 

[Kinsei]

I'm. It's Smash 3DS so if we didn't cap the threed then it will be for NA/EU too

It's a shame we'll have to reset the thread numbering. I wish we could call it OT XVI.

 

[Josephl64]

fair enough, people who don't want to be spoiled wouldn't enter it anyways

Lucas
5th Place (Victory Music!)

Notable Appearences
Mother 3 (2006)

Bio
Lucas is the primary protagonist of Mother 3. Lucas is a timid and shy boy from Tazmily Village, living there for his entire life. He is close with his family, which include his father Flint, mother Hinawa, and twin brother Claus. He also loves his dog, Boney, and goes out playing and taking walks with him often. He is very gentle and cautious, almost the complete opposite of his brother. Through his adventures, he finds himself to be quite an adept user of PSI-Powers, which he uses to great affect in his battle against the Pigmask Army.

What NeoGAF Says

“Mother 3 is my favorite game of all time, and I absolutely love how Sakurai incorporated so many key elements of the game's story and aesthetics: the PK Love hexagons, the Rope Snake, the twig Lucas brandishes, and so on. I also love how his playstyle is a fun mix of PSI-powered melee attacks and mega-powered PK energy bursts.” - Masked Man

“Lucas' inclusion blew up international awareness of Mother 3. As a cult game that never got officially translated, its presence in Brawl kept Mother 3 as part of the collective Nintendo culture when it stood great risk of being forgotten.” - Finale Fireworker

“His play style combines all the aspects of my favorite play styles!” - kirby_fox

“Like Ness, he's a great character. And Mother 3 is incredible so its got that going for him too. My main in SSBB.” - Fireblend

“It’s impossible to not love Lucas after having played Mother 3. An increidbly sympathetic character with a badass arsenal of PSI energy at his disposal, Lucas has that winning combination of great character and awesome playstyle.” - OricWindstar

“I love magic based characters.” - Kouriozan

“I never played any Mother games until EB hit the VC, but I always liked Ness' playstyle. He was a tricky long-range character with a simple-but effective design. However, in Brawl, Lucas really stole the show for me; his Smashes and Supers were even better than before barring PSI Magnet, and my time playing as him got me on the "Free Mother" boat.” - Zubz

“Smash attack were never more satisfying.” - Heropon

“Great Up-A smash, fun recovery move, from a game I'll never, EVER get to play.” - Griss

“He's better Ness. Nuff said.” - Azure J

"HE'S MY OTHER BOY" - MrSaturn99

Congrats, Lucas! And, if you truly aren’t returning for Smash 4, thanks for the memories!

Wiiiii

Tbh I found him awkward too but I've been playing Brawl the last two weeks and found that Yoshi can be good if you use him well, he's got some interesting elements. I can't wait to try him

 

[Fireblend]

i see
Just asking to see if we were going to migrate after this week or not.

Last I heard both will continue. I don't think that's going to work out though, with everyone migrating to the 3DS OT, but I guess there might be some trying to keep this one alive to discuss the Wii U version of the game and the PotDs.

Edit:

LUCAS?

LUCAS IS NUMBER FIVE?

THIS. IS. JUSTICE. MAH BRAWL DUDE GETTING SOME RECOGNITION AT LAST. <3 <3 <3

YUSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

I'll miss you, partner :'(
