Kirby doesn't get a hat when absorbing Shulk!?

 

[Shadow Hog]

Guesses for top 2: Shulk and Ridley

If Mega Man is 5, I doubt another newcomer confirmed before the poll will get higher than him, so no Little Mac. Shulk wasn't officially confirmed, but the Gematsu leak and his general popularity as a suggestion made a lot of people excited for him.

Ridley is Ridley.

Honestly, I'm expecting a certain bear and bird to be in the top two desired newcomers.

The poll never asked for realistic newcomers, after all, evidenced best by friggin' Hanafuda cards making the grade.

 

[GregLombardi]

They should have given him Shulk's hair.

 

[Greenzxy]

yes pls

Should have been POTD.

 

[Mr. Smiley]

I am calling it something else. I don't care what the box says.

Super Smash Bros. Kerfuffle is the way to go~

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

I am calling it something else. I don't care what the box says.

KERFUFFLE

 

[georly]

Shulk Kirby!

Literally the most overpowered kirby inhale of all time

Spoiler

As far as xenoblade lore goes

 

[sfz]

Ridley All-Stars Battle Royale is the only thing I will shout.

Nah
Super Smash Bros. IV 3D Edition is the perfect title. Yours is good too.

 

[BGBW]

Wait, where's his hat? They should at least give him his usual Sword Hat but in red.

Super Smash Bros. 4: The Riddlening

 

[ShockingAlberto]

I am guessing for Robin he just gets a book?

 

[Shadow Hog]

Shulk Kirby!

This is like the smallest size.

There we go.

 

[balladofwindfishes]

I am guessing for Robin he just gets a book?

He gets hair

 

[SuperSah]

FOR 3DESSSSSSSSS

meh

They really should have given the games better subtitles.

"Melee" and "Brawl" sounded pretty good, but now it's "Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS" and "Super Smash Bros. for Wii U".

It's uninventive at best.

 

[ffdgh]

This one was posted by Nintendo on Twitter.

Just noticed. I know they have a bundle of shulk pics lying around just waiting to post them Like other characters... ¬_¬

 

[JoeInky]

I am calling it something else. I don't care what the box says.

Super Smash Bros. for WiiU: Lite

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

Speaking of subtitles: Super Smash Bros. for Wii U |OT| A Universe Rumbling with Frenzied Kerfuffles

 

[Zubz]

And yet not one person has said they voted for him.

I said I assumed he got too many votes anyway and voted for Bayonetta instead as a result... :|

 

[Hot Coldman]

Wow, the PotD was really late today huh

 

[Kensho]

They should have given him Shulk's hair.

Then he would be too similar to Robin's, this is fine, the Monado is the important thing from Shulk.

 

[Mariolee]

Speaking of subtitles: Super Smash Bros. for Wii U |OT| A Universe Rumbling with Frenzied Kerfuffles

lol I can't believe all of those weren't even remotely close to the actual subtitle.

 

[UnnecessaryTodd]

Pushing it further, Isaac could have psynergy for his smash attacks and leave his sword exclusively for a-combos and tilts

Down Smash - Thorn Psynergy (Appears either side, similar to Squirtle)
Up Smash - Spire Psynergy (Makes a Spire shoot above him. Similar to Lucas)
Side Smash - Rockfall Psynergy (Shoots a rock forward with a sword slash)

 

[The Shadow Knight]

They really should have given the games better subtitles.

"Melee" and "Brawl" sounded pretty good, but now it's "Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS" and "Super Smash Bros. for Wii U".

It's uninventive at best.

Are there any other synonyms for "fight" that work? Though I guess they could look for different themes.

 

[SoldnerKei]

Smash 4.44: You Can (Not) Main Ridley

Sakurai: Ridley you're going to appear in Smash Bros...

Ridley: I hate you father!

Sakurai: what? I am not even your fa...

*Ridley runs making annoying cry noises*

Samus: Baka-Ridley...

 

[Kouriozan]

Kirby with the Monado *-*
By the way, it can't hurts homs, he is f*cked :lol

 

[georly]

Then he would be too similar to Robin's, this is fine, the Monado is the important thing from Shulk.

But he literally just made ANOTHER monado... which is kind of a big deal in xenoblade lore

 

[BGBW]

He could have been given one of Shulk's various helmets he gets, like the weird wing one or the bog standard Colony 9 soldier one.

 

[Not75Drops]

FOR 3DESSSSSSSSS

meh

Announcer should say "3Dees" like ABC did once.

 

[User 73706]

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U |OT| for NeoGAF

I feel like Isaac's tilts could all be variations on Move or Pound. Or Psynergy that use the grabby hand thing.

 

[sfz]

Super Smash Bros. for WiiU: Lite

WiiU version should be called Super Smash U. Or they could go the Mario Kart route and go with numbered titles.

 

[Kensho]

Are there any other synonyms for "fight" that work? Though I guess they could look for different themes.

WRESTLEMANIAAAAA

Admit it, it'd been funny at least.

 

[UnnecessaryTodd]

Super Smash Brothers Fight!

Also would be fine with Riot, Rumble or Kerfuffle.

 

[javadoze]

Kind of surprised that Kirby's Shulk inhale-ability might extend to his normal moves. Why else would he have the Monado?

(A bonus if Kirby actually says the names of the Monado Arts.)

 

[Neiteio]

I am guessing for Robin he just gets a book?

Nope. We've already seen Kirby's Robin hat, and it's Robin's hair.

Because Shulk and male Robin have similar hair, I kind of figured they might go with just the Monado for Shulk Kirby.

 

[BGBW]

3DS version should have been called For Fun
Wii U version should have been called For Glory

 

[ffdgh]

Royale?

 

[Kensho]

But he literally just made ANOTHER monado... which is kind of a big deal in xenoblade lore

Kirby getting the falcon punch is A PRETTY BIGGER DEAL MAN!!!

 

[ShockingAlberto]

He gets hair

Does it change depending on the Robin gender?

 

[Molemitts]

Which characters give Kirby the anime hair?

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

WRESTLEMANIAAAAA

Admit it, it'd been funny at least.

2K needs to revive that scrapped "WWE Brawl" project as a Smash clone

 

[-Horizon-]

Sakurai: Ridley you're going to appear in Smash Bros...

Ridley: I hate you father!

Sakurai: what? I am not even your fa...

*Ridley runs making annoying cry noises*

Samus: Baka-Ridley...

 

[Ahnez]

Which characters give Kirby the anime hair?

Robin

 

[Mr. Smiley]

"Melee" and "Brawl" sounded pretty good, but now it's "Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS" and "Super Smash Bros. for Wii U".

It's uninventive at best.

I guess at that point Sakurai wanted to drive home that these weren't the same games while at the same time... they were...

I don't know.

 

[Kensho]

Kind of surprised that Kirby's Shulk inhale-ability might extend to his normal moves. Why else would he have the Monado?

(A bonus if Kirby actually says the names of the Monado Arts.)

I heard from people that played the demo that he carries the Monado on his back, he gets it to do the pose of the picture when changing stances, Kirby's hats will never change anything but his Neutral Special.

3DS version should have been called For Fun
Wii U version should have been called For Glory

I'm using this. Now someone pls make a custom cover for my game.

 

[sfz]

3DS version should have been called For Fun
Wii U version should have been called For Glory

That is a cool idea. But then the 3DS would sound lame

 

[theprodigy]

Naming is going the Mario Kart route, Super Circuit/Double Dash to DS/Wii to 7/8.

 

[ffdgh]

Which characters give Kirby the anime hair?

Robin....marth, ike, palutena

 

[brinstar]

I thought they were supposed to be like, puns.

Super Smash Bros 4 Wii U

Super Smash Bros 4 3DS

 

[K-A-Deman]

Shulk Kirby!

that's kinda adorable, shame they didn't give Kirby Shulk's hair on top of all that. It doesn't make sense for him to have a power without a hat to accompany it.
