Okay.

Pikachu has like ZERO lag after his throws.

So I just did up throw into thunder and it killed Megaman at like 90%.

You can do the thunder SO FAST after the upthrow. It's crazy.

Test Link's nair. It looks fucking FAST.

 

[Berordn]

More like "we're not getting this demo."

I wonder why NoA's sitting on this for so long, not like they have anything else it's potentially stealing sales from...

 

[Labrynian Rebel]

Cuccos are brutal...like a final smash basically! (Pit's)

Cuccos should be Link's final smash IMO, at least give a Gale of Storms final smash for Toon Link

 

[Kinsei]

We're getting the demo Thursday at the earliest.

Maybe in Americo, but in America and Europe I'd say we're not getting it until October 2nd at the earliest.

My thoughts exactly.
Would build up hype for sales more than anything.

Even a Loftwong in place of the Blue Falcon would be an awesome Final Smash. Triforce Slash is just so uninspired.

How is the game feeling compared to SDCC?

HNNNNGH, THEY CHANGED THINGS!! Oh but wait, was he still in hitstun when you hit with the Thunder? Or did he go into the animation after hitstun?

 

[Anteo]

Wait pikachu got nerfed? Thunder no longer goes through platforms?

 

[Proven]

The only alt colors available to characters seem to be team colors. Four for each including their default color.

Final Destination stage versions automatically block items.

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

Watch some insane advance tech get found in the next 24 hours before getting day 1 patch'd.

 

[Vashzaron]

Someone should go ahead and datamine this demo.

 

[georly]

Holy crap. S Flag


You have to pick it up. Then find a safe spot, then HOLD A. FOR FIVE+ seconds straight.

If you get interrupted, you drop it, have to pick it up again, then do the WHOLE FIVE SECONDS AGAIN.

Definitely not broken.

Is probably longer than 5 seconds but it's hard to count

 

[Hatchtag]

How long until that happens, though? It's a little more than

Spoiler

two days away until the Japanese eShop crashes due to all the downloads, so in

three days.

It's a fairly small demo file size and there's a shit ton of interest. It might not happen before the game leaks, but probably before the actual release.

 

[Feltrol]

We're getting the demo Thursday at the earliest.

How are you so sure?

 

[Nanashrew]

Link can spike with dair! Cobanerman is playing Smash too http://www.twitch.tv/cobanermani456

 

[Speedwagon]

Can anybody tell me how to download this? I'm in the japanese eshop and I can't understand anything. Is the demo somewhere on the smash bros page? (I have a japanese 3ds )

.

 

[Vashzaron]

Yep.

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

Streamers are saying Corocoro leaked.

Glad that stayed in!

 

[SoulUnison]

EXCLUSIVE INSIDER IMPRESSIONS:

the announcer sounds really weird saying "rockman"

"Rohku-mahn."

That's always been the Japanese way of pronouncing it.

 

[PadWarrior]

Streamers are saying Corocoro leaked.

OOO what's in it?

 

[Sponge]

Streamers are saying Corocoro leaked.

???

 

[ffdgh]

Streamers are saying Corocoro leaked.

The joy just keeps coming...or not.

Sick of seeing the electric rat.

 

[Axass]

Streamers are saying Corocoro leaked.

Yeah, they're making stuff up.

 

[GiantBreadbug]

Streamers are saying Corocoro leaked.

RECEEEEEEEIPTS

 

[Mariolee]

Wait pikachu got nerfed? Thunder no longer goes through platforms?

They used to go through platforms?

 

[Speedwagon]

I wish Wii Fit Trainer was in it, but this demo will suffice until Friday. Mega Man is pretty fun.

 

[bigmac996]

.

You rule man. Thanks so much!

 

[Vashzaron]

They used to go through platforms?

In E3 Demo yes.

 

[Lord_Byron28]

They've never gone through platforms right? At least, not in Melee as far as I remember.

Yeah im confused. Maybe it went through some platforms and not others but im pretty sure it never went through battlefield platforms.

 

[The Bankslammer]

"Rohku-mahn."

That's always been the Japanese way of pronouncing it.

lol that's certainly not what he's saying. the smash announcer has always pronounced japanese names with english pronunciation anyways, like the pokemon names

he just says it funny

anyways i like how he says murabito too

 

[Anth0ny]

Okay, here's the main thing I absolutely want confirmed ASAP - is auto-sweetspotting still in?

I'm trying to figure this out.

It seems to be still there... for certain characters. For Link, it looks like it is. For Mario, it looks like it's not.

[munchie64]

Demo! HOLY SHIT NINTENDO BE SMART?

 

[Revven]

In the E3 build thunder could go through platforms, apparently. That's what they're talking about.

 

[MetalGuardian]

MAAAAN VILLAGER IS GOING TO STRAIGHT UP REK SHIT, look so dope! Rockman looks badass as well - looks like I should finally get around to finishing the final level in Mega Man 2.

 

[JediLink]

First, I want to know what auto-sweetspotting is.

Then, I want that question answered.

In 64 and Melee, you can only grab an edge during an Up B after after you've reached your maximum height. In Brawl, you'll automatically grab the edge during any point of your recovery. It makes recovering basically mindless.

 

[BY2K]

How are you so sure?

Because the NA eShop updates on Thursdays?

 

[Hispanic! At the Disco]

Demo! HOLY SHIT NINTENDO OF JAPAN BE SMART?

edited for clarification

 

[Anteo]

They used to go through platforms?

Pretty sure it did in all the videos and previews so far. I stopped following closely after e3 so maybe I missed the nerf.

I dont know what to think about that

 

[The Great Gonzales]

More like "we're not getting this demo."

I bet NoA's marketing department crunched the numbers and determined that an October 3rd release date will be more lucrative than September 13. As for why, I can only guess. Maybe it has something to do with back-to-school season: having just spent a bunch of money on school supplies, parents may be less willing to drop another $40 for a video game; but by October, enough time has passed that school expenses have drifted back a ways in their minds.

 

[balladofwindfishes]

Battlefield's music

:*D

Dat melee

 

[Pappasman]

Apparently The FD mode of battlefield auto shuts off items.

 

[Cbajd5]

I don't think there'll be any data mining, because there's never been an eShop release/demo dumped from a Japanese 3DS. I think most, if not all, people who could do it without a dumped release don't have a Japanese 3DS...

 

[Seven Force]

I take a nap for a few hours, and wake up to a Smash Bros. demo.

Nearly killed myself running over to my JP 3DS, heh.

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

Demo! HOLY SHIT NINTENDO BE SMART?

Demos can actually hurt game sales.

 

[ffdgh]

Because the NA eShop updates on Thursdays?

I want to believe....I really want to believe.

Are you holding down? If you hold down in Brawl, you wouldn't grab the ledge with your Up B iirc.

 

[Dimmle]

In 64 and Melee, you can only grab an edge during an Up B after after you've reached your maximum height. In Brawl, you'll automatically grab the edge during any point of your recovery. It makes recovering basically mindless.

Hm! Does Project M have auto-sweetspotting?

And does anyone know if Smash 4 does, just to reiterate the question?

EDIT: oh, looks like someone's on it

Also, if you're watching the stream I'm watching, I HOPE YOU LIKE PIKACHU

It's possible but it won't be possible for the Smash 3DS demo because it requires the latest firmware.
