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.

I know right, I ran up two flights of stairs in record time.


Honestly, releasing a demo for smash 2 days before release isn't going to hurt sales at all. Not one bit. This is throwing a bone to the fans. Hopefully this means NA demo is close around the corner, and not 2 days before NA launch.

Hm! Does Project M have auto-sweetspotting?

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

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

for 1: No it doesnt, I think most mods remove it.

for 2: Acording to Anth0ny some characters have it, some not.

How is the game feeling compared to SDCC?

Faster. Lots of lagless aerials and throws.

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?

I'm not sure what that animation looks like, but testing it against a level 9 CPU instead of a level 3, it looks like they can DI out of the way of the thunder =/

Nonetheless, I'm shocked at how fast you can attack after a grab.

Test Link's nair. It looks fucking FAST.

Just tested it. It's pretty damn fast. Seems faster than his Melee or Brawl nair.

It also has ZERO landing lag. Holy hell. I'm shuffling.

Welp, this must be the most hype I've been for a demo I can't play. I can't wait to see some in depth impressions. Also add me to the crazy Friday NA demo reveal train :p

It won't be two days before launch, it'll be one. After all our eshop updates on Thursdays.

It gives people a chance to try before they buy. And if they don't like what they try, they probably won't buy.

I can only imagine what will happen if we got the demo this week as well

links fair and nair have virtually NO LANDING LAG.

pikachu can do fair from the ledge AND INSTANTLY DO ANY OTHER MOVE.
YOU CAN DASH TOWARDS THE LEDGE, PRESS BACK, AND FALL TO TURNAROUND LEDGEGRAB.

IT LOOKS LIKE A WAVEDASH BUT IT ISNT.
link has EXTREMELY GOOD combos.

bair > forward smash is a thing.

to be honest BAIR INTO ANYTHING IS A THING.
MARIO HAS THE BEST COMBO GAME EVER

UAIR CHAINS FOR DAYS, YOU CAN GET A CLEAN 40% INSTANTLY AND THEN GET ANY FOLLOW UP.

Right? It's like they listened. Game feels WAY better than what I tried at E3 best buy demo.
Really? That's amazing, and hard to believe. Joy if so. And joy if not, because then it just means the game is better than we thought.

Looking forward to Zero getting it downloaded, and same for the guys at VGBootCamp/Xanadu. I might lose sleep tonight. D:

PLS DON'T BE PLACEBO, PLS DON'T BE PLACEBO.

Link's tether don't seem as long, and I remember landing lag after nair at e3 demo, and there's barely any.

I remember constantly feeling like i was stuck to the ground after aerials, and even if there's landing lag this time, I don't get that same 'feel.'

The game feel feels way better.

-----

ALso, the sound modification for big/tiny link is WAYYY more pronounced than in previous smash games. You really get a 'bigger' more 'ogre-like' sound when he's bigger.
 
Holy fucking shit, screenshots do this game no justice. This game looks and runs amazing.

I mean I just got bodied by a level 9 Mega Man but still

No chain grabs is the greatest thing known to man! Bowser and DK had such a hard time against Falco's and Dedede's grabs. Trust me when I say it is all for the best. Freakin infinits man!

My thumb already hurts. Damn you circle pad!


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

Nope, not holding down.

I'm riding the side of Battlefield with Mario's up b and he passes the ledge and lands on the stage. Same with Megaman.

With Link, he grabs the ledge half way through his up b animation.

I could be doing something wrong here, but it seems pretty consistent. Maybe it's a Link specific thing?
 
I do wish Donkey Kong and Metroid would get more love. I can understand the MOTHER series not getting to much (it's only 3 games), but DK and Metroid have had such a huge impact on many people's gaming memories. Just look at Donkey Kong Country 1-3, Returns, Tropical Freeze and 64 there are SO many environments and crazy places they could make into stages (Web Woods with DAT MUSIC would be amazing, Angry Aztec, the Disco Train) but no we just get generic jungle stages. Plus Tropical Freeze's fur physics put Diddy and DK's smash models to shame... Plus is a third DK character (even if it's Cranky) would be GOAT

Also Ridley would be cool ;_;

I got Lucina, Palutena and Duck Hunt Dog so I'm happy... it's just, well, I'm selfish and always want more...
