Super Smash Bros. for 3DS & Wii U Thread XV: Kübler-Ross Edition

I'm not gonna call Sakurai bias or anything, but I would have rather had a Palutena clone with Medusa than Dark Pit. Female AND villain representation.
 
Is it that strange to entertain the possibility that in all of the tens of thousands of people (if not more) that are discussing Smash Bros. on the web, that one of them got lucky? Especially considering we've seen that people have had the same lines of thought before.

I do think Gematsu had info, I just don't think it's 'omg obviously the only explanation' like some people do.

It's unlikely, but entirely plausible.
Here's a video that I like a lot, from Final Destination - the movie, not the stage. Talks a lot about chances, and unlikely odds.
 
I just showed my 7 year old nephew all the reveal trailers. Here is his reactions.

Villager: my nephew was confused. Didn't see how he could be a fighter.

Sonic: my nephew got really hyper. He loves sonic.

Little Mac: "He looks so boring. He's just a puncher". I tried telling him lots of people are excited for Mac, but my nephew didn't care.

Mega man: didn't know who he was, confused him for kid Icarus(?)

Greninja. He was loves charizard, thought greninja looked cool despite not knowing who he was.

Pacman: thought he looked awesome. I was surprised he knew who pacman was. Apparently there is a pacman cartoon on currently?

Rosalina: my nephew was so happy. He loved her in SMG.

Robin and Lucina: didn't care about either, was obsessed with falcon


Shulk: He got excited. My nephew watched me play all of xenoblade. He wanted reyn in.

Your nephew has good taste.
 
But he was so confident! hahaha I feel it could easily go either way.

Also you have like, my favorite avatar on SmashGAF :D
Again, I do think he did have insider info, just clearly have a little more faith in the collective imagination of the internet. If the Chorus Kids get announced there won't be any question, though.

And thanks! Please let Samus be good this time!
 
I say morning and thanks for the impressions! One last thing tho...Was peach's second jump height increased from brawl?

Of course! :D Unfortunately, it didn't seem much different from Brawl when I played... I miss her double-jump from Melee!

Did you ever find out what the Paper Mario music was?

Two out of the three pieces! The music from Hither Thither Hill and Bowser's Sky Castle are the same tracks as their Sticker Star counterparts (which I learned after checking the OST seeing as I haven't played SS), but I didn't recognize the S.S. Flavion music. Which piece is used in TTYD?

Oh Good :) I kept seeing that People saying that purple one is Viridi

Nope! The Viridi one is pretty obvious: crimson with purple and green accents. :D

Oh hey. Sorry to bother you, but could you check this for me?

Top of page....

Sadly, I didn't play as Lucario, and I didn't manage to snag the Smash Ball when I played as Charizard. :/

Lucas
5th Place (Victory Music!)

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

MY BOYYYYYYYYYYYY ;_____;

This is awesome. Reminds me of my six-year-old step-brother when he watches me play games haha.
 
I'm just playing devil's advocate here: with an infinite number of monkeys typing on an infinite number of typewriters, they would eventually type out the entire works of William Shakespeare.
By the same logic, with an infinite amount of pretend leakers sending out an infinite number of fake leaks, one of them would eventually get the roster correctly.
What if Gematsu just happened to be the one that was right? I'm just saying - it's possible. Unlikely, but entirely possible.

I'm Batman
 
My little sister, who is 8, saw all the trailers and was only excited about Pikachu, Sonic and Pac-Man. She kind of knew who Mario, Luigi, and Peach were (though she was just 'the princess!') but didn't really care about them. Everyone else she just kind of shrugged about.

She liked Lucina, once I told her that she was also a princess. Princesses are pretty cool you guys. She also liked Rosalina but it was because she was pretty and the Luma was super cute when it danced with Kirby, she didn't recognize the character at all. Rosalina is cool too though.

Apparently kids are really into that Pac-Man cartoon, though. She wanted me to watch it with her after seeing he was in the game. I'm kind of surprised that show is doing as well as it seems to be.

nah, Sakurai should have went full bias mode and included his favorite Uprising character as fully playable

cause superior goddess is better than Palutena
 
Of course! :D Unfortunately, it didn't seem much different from Brawl when I played... I miss her double-jump from Melee!

Now I'm kind of sad to know that it's just going to be Sticker Star music...it's not like they were bad but all the other games had so much more better tunes

the music is the least offensively bad thing in Sticker Star to me, some of it is decent

Samus, Zero Suit Samus... BIDLEY?

She sounds good so far, except a comment about her being clunky. But the person said he doesn't play Samus. After what I've read I'm just hoping her speed is good :)
 
That whole speculation about Barbara or whatever is lame as hell.

Does this honestly look like recently obtained rewards in Smash Run?

It looks like the entire trophy list sorted by recently obtained, to me.
For comparison, here's Smash Run/Classic rewards screen

I understand that it COULD be a deeper menu, but that seems very unlikely.

Plus, the Barbara trophy doesn't even have a description.

Yeah, that's why I don't know why people are so sure we're getting Duck Hunt and Bowser Jr. I think it's entirely possible that a faker made fake models/fake stage select screen, and it's just random chance that they match up with the real deal. It's likely that it was legit, but it's not stretch to say that it could easily just be a lucky fake.
 
Xenoblade question:

I'm now exploring the High Entia Tomb. I was advised earlier to put Shulk in reserves. Was that only for the battle with the
assassins back at the palace
? Is it safe to have Shulk back in the lead again?
 
I've posted that Wikipedia link like 3 different times on this thread after someone says something about Wii Fit Trainer being obvious. It's crazy that so many of our discussions are just recycled from stuff that we already talked about 3 months ago.

smashgaf is an endless loop
 
For all we know Captain ran over Chrom with his Blue Falcon.

He probably threw his Blue Falcon to Chrom. After all, anti-gravity wasn't a thing in the medieval times.

Yeah exploring the tomb would be no problem for Shulk, but just put him on a sidelines when you're near the end.
One of the two bosses would be human.
 

I've won 1 tournament with Lucas and did well in another (Honestly, I hate fighting Pikachus more than I hate fighting Meta Knights... BOTH losses were to Pikachu. Keighley, I feel you). I'm really gonna miss that little guy. He better come back via DLC; his Smashes are what made him, not just his Specials (Although they WERE so much better).

Honestly, I don't even know if I can go back to Ness this time around. They did buff Sonic, my secondary, apparently, and ZSS and Bowser were ALSO buffed and ALSO some of my favorites... And Villager had potential for me at Smash Fest. But none of them will be the same as our tragic hero we never deserved.

You don't know how much I appreciated this.

Yeah and they'd also get the exact render right, and be able to make a video that perfectly matches what is later revealed /s

And beyond the visual leak, we got the text leak that has gotten everything right (characters, shulk's playstyle, alph as an olimar alt, 8 costume each, etc) that included them
 
I'm not sure what you're implying with that; it's certainly not a fake. My first guess would be that the text just hasn't loaded yet.

I'm not implying it's fake; I'm implying that it's probably at an early point of development or some early build or some other reason. I don't imagine text loads that slowly, either...but yeah it could be something like that.

But to me, it looks like that particular save file has only unlocked 11 trophies.

You should be fine. I used Shulk throughout the entire game, only switching him out for that one battle.

Yeah, I mean stuff like that makes me lean towards it being true, but the people who are pretending that it couldn't possibly just be pure luck are kind of arrogant.
