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

They could always just introduce the new characters as part of routine updates, seeing as there will likely be a couple of stability / debug updates for the game anyway.

It's just all going to depend on how nintendo feels.
They know they can make money off Smash Characters being DLC on either platform so I can't see them not taking advantage of that at some point.
 
By then though I'm sure we'll be glued to Japanese sites and whatever as the game'll be leaking
 
Hey SmashGAF, I--

Speaking of Smash cred, what were the games that Smash introduced to you? Like you only knew it existed because of Smash then because of it, you started playing at least a game in that series?

I played Melee over at a friend's house after he just got a GameCube and saw that Pikachu was in it as well as other Pokemon so it grabbed my interest. Pokemon was basically the only game series I liked as a kid. The only other Nintendo game I had was Super Mario Advance.

It was cus of Smash that I actually got into Nintendo - I started to want to know more about all these characters and ended up buying a GameCube because of it. So all my years spent gaming I basically owe to Melee, it introduced to me every Nintendo game out there besides Pokemon

So on disc DLC.

Well I mean they'll be ready to go on the Wii U version but to unlock them on the 3DS you have to connect to the Wii U version is what I personally think
 

Beautiful, wondering how you were going to top the intro gifs.


I wonder if we'll get newcomer trailers during nico nico/treehouse event. I mean, even though people will have their hands on the game, there's a chance not everyone will have unlocked all/any of the newcomers. Unless someone gets it.. today/tomorrow.
 
8 hours is enough time to probably unlock half the roster if not more, so chances are it's the demo version that doesn't have unlockable characters.

Since they didn't mention spoilers.

I don't think the whole 8 hours is Smash.

Plus I imagine they're not gonna be unlocking characters or showing anything Sakurai wants to stay hidden for awhile, probably just gonna be matches.

The stream will be after japanese launch though, so the cat's out of the bag anyway.

Several gaffers will be doing streams as well, so unless they have actual newcomer trailers (that weren't somehow already shown off during the nico nico stream) it might not be all that great. At least not as great as what gaffers will be streaming, since i'm sure they'll be taking requests on what to show off.

what stream?

NicoNico smash stream at 7PM japan time - 2.5 hours long. 6 Am my time... I think 9-10 Am your time?
 
Smash experience?

Mario: Played a great deal of. Can't think I've a series title on a system I own that I haven't played extensively.

Yoshi: Yoshi's Island is one of my favorite games of all-time. Played the heck out of that as a kid.

Wario: Wario Land 4 was another one of my favorite games growing up, and the WarioWare series is a gift from god. Love it.

Donkey Kong: Played a lot of the Original Donkey Kong. I've just started DKCR on the 3DS.

Game and Watch: Never even heard of him until Melee.

Zelda: Played my fair share. I've played OoT, WW, TP, PH, MC, SS, and LBW extensively, but I've yet to actually play a full Zelda game to completion. Closest I came was TP. I intend to finish one someday.

Metroid: Played the first hour or so of Prime 3, got stuck, never went back to it. Also played a lot of Prime 2 multiplayer with friends as a kid. I intend to go back to it eventually.

Kid Icarus: Never. Watched an LP of Uprising, that's about it. Maybe I'll pick up the next one, whenever that day comes.

Fire Emblem: Never. Intend on getting Awakening soonish.

Kirby: I've played some Kirby. Played a good deal of Kirby's Adventure and Super Star Ultra.

Little Mac: Beat Punch-Out Wii. I mess with the NES one on VC every now and again.

Star Fox: Played a little Assault multiplayer when I was a kid I think. Never owned a SF game, intend to remedy that soonish.

Pokemon: Hundreds of hours in Sapphire, 100+ hours in Diamond, 100+ hours in SoulSilver, 50+ hours in Black, 50+ hours in X. Beat Coliseum. Played a good bit of Mystery Dungeon and Leaf Green. I know my way around a Pokemon Gym.

Duck Hunt: Had the original SMB/DH dual cartridge on NES. Played a good deal of it until we upgraded our TVs in the house and they didn't work with the Light Gun anymore.

ROB: Never even heard of him until Brawl.

Mother: Watched LPs of all three. Dabbled a bit in Mother, never played Earthbound, got decently far in Mother 3 before I moved computers and lost the ROM. Intend to get Earthbound and Mother 3 on VC when able
and when Nintendo actually acknowledges Mother 3's existence in a somewhat positive manner :^P

F-Zero: Never. Would buy a new F-Zero if Nintendo ever fancied though. Smash has made me love this series
FALCAWN PAWNCH

Animal Crossing: Played every game. Always buy it thinking I'll keep up with it, then my interest fades, then I feel horrible after abandoning my town. Then buy the next entry thinking "This time I'll do it right".

Pikmin: Pikmin 2 is one of my favorite games of all-time. Can't get enough of it.

Wii Fit: Never.

Dr. Mario: Have the original on NES, that's about it.

Xenoblade: Watching an LP of it currently. May get it on New 3DS, probably will get X on Wii U.

Pac-Man: Waka waka.

Mega Man: Never. Intend to remedy that. Probably one of my biggest gaming shames. :^{

Sonic: Played a good bit of Sonic.

Metal Gear Solid: Never. Intend to remedy that with MGS5.

Ice Climbers: Never.
 
I don't think the whole 8 hours is Smash.

Plus I imagine they're not gonna be unlocking characters or showing anything Sakurai wants to stay hidden for awhile, probably just gonna be matches.

But just doing matches will unlock characters. Doing 8 hours of vs mode will almost certainly unlock nearly everyone.

Even Smash Run could unlock characters for all we know.
 
I like this theory that I just heard.
Link is in the All Star Icon because there is actually a fifth company involved.
So when that character gets released Link will be replaced by that companies character.
Since there's no reason for there to be 2 nintendo characters there when it's all of the third parties.

Might be outlandish but I like it.
 
Other games first? So Bayonetta 2 and Hyrule Warriors first?

Bayo, HW, captain toad... and... what's coming out for 3DS? Anything? ORAS? What else?

Or maybe link is just nintendo's 2nd most popular character, and there's nothing more to it than that.

Glad to hear that! For a lot of people, Smash is basically the gateway of people to several Nintendo franchises that was never mainstream.

this

remember that Hyrule Warriors will be out in a few days, I guess they will show some footage of the american version too, I'll rather watch the stream of someone from here, the skill level on those matches makes them hella boring sometimes

If anyone it would be Snake, or Big Boss.

There's a MGS4 track in the game, right?
 
Holy crap can't wait for Friday.

Wish they'd show off some of the secret characters but not holding my breath.

Unless they turn them off for this stream, we're guaranteed a few unlockables. Ness in Brawl required like 10 matches to be played or a few projectiles to be reflected. That can be done in under half an hour.

Let alone if they play Classic mode once, whoops, there's Jiggly. Or maybe with Mario, oh hello Doc.

Better not be too good at multi man Smash either, or Falco might pop up.

It would be impossible not to unlock characters unless they specifically turn it off, like the recent demo.
 
Biggest "Fuck You" to the 3DS Community. And the "Both have the same Characters" would have been a lie from the first minute.

Add 5 characters to the Wii U version and make them free DLC for the 3DS version on the launch day of the Wii U version. Have each character get revealed in epic trailers between the two release dates, all costumers will be happy and continue to hype.

Either that or make the Wii U have a TON of cool stages

That's one heck of a stretch

Link is popular so it makes sense he's there. That's it.
