The tweet of that photo makes it even more exciting omfg:

"The line for Super Smash Wii U & Pokemon at the @Nintendo_World store NYC is the longest I've ever seen it!"

YUP, The hype is oh so real!
 
And I'm still a believer the initial strong leak with Chrom, Chorus Kids, etc was 100% real, just from very early development and things changed over time (especially with what we know of Greninja and Chrom which both line up with the leak being very early drafts of the roster)

Yeah and the fact about Smash Run enemies being chosen for likely characters who are likely to be playable too. I'll be very curious if Chorus Men gets brought back up when (?) they release more DLC after Mewtwo. Hopefully it wasn't an Ice Climbers situation where Sakurai had a vision for them that couldn't work under 3DS constraints....
 
This will be my first Smash game. Played others but never owned one. Pretty excited, the hype from people about this game, both online and off is pretty infectious.
 
Wish I had thought to a poll for favorite SmashGAF memory; would've been a nice countdown. I have a feeling Robin/Lucina reveal or Psychic GAF would have won. Maaaybe the cake analogy.
 
One more fucking hour.

This game, THIS GAME was the SOLE reason I bought my Wii U for.


I can't wait for the years of enjoyment I will get out of this game.
 
Gonna use the Pro Controller tonight to play for a bit before I sleep. Excited for the GC adapter in the mail tomorrow though.
 
I won't be able to play until my copy arrives by mail soooooooo someone should totally beeline straight for the CDs in Crazy Orders and keep a list of all the music they get.

Anyways, see you all on the other side~
 
Why isn't the stage builder great? I was hoping for it to be awesome =(

i was kidding. it's good. i need to try it more ;P

unless you don't unlock any new stuff for it?

don't see anything about some modifying the object once it's played. was hoping for some corner tool.

Robin/Lucina was when I decided to join gaf, and it wasn't until after a few months of lurking and the ESRB leak that I was able to join in the fun.

I kind of miss weekend GAF.
 
Btw, how many of you are downloading the game as opposed to buying a physical copy? Thinking of doing it because it's nice to have multi-player games already loaded onto the system for impromptu parties.
 
So

Best Buy called me to let me know my order's ready for tomorrow. Cool. No problem. I can wait.

Then they let me know my preordered Villager amiibo is not in stock. The closest Best Buy to purchase it is 20 minutes away. Should I go through with it and have them hold it?
 
How's Miiverse implementation in this?

Can you actually post pictures right to it? That's gonna be fun, and something sorely missing from 3DS.

Ash and co. said you only got the barrels, lava, springs, and, uh, one other thing.

:(

Still, though, it'll be good for humor I guess.

If you really want it that badly, then ya you should tell them to hold on to it. The demand for amiibos seems pretty high atm.

oh. so basically what's in the stage builder is all you get? ;x

i think they can fix it. i mean. would like something as simple as a cursor to move created object. since there's an erase tool that deletes per object created. so yeah. once it's down it's down. don't think about moving it unless i'm not seeing it. lol.
 
40 minutes to go, got showered up and ready to go. :)

I always get nervous at these things.
 
Holy balls I just saw that my Nyko NetConnect is going for $60-90... whaaaa. Maybe I should buy a Plugable and sell the Nyko?

Heh, I wonder if the Apple USB ethernet adapter would work on the Wii U. Got to dig around for the one that's around here somewhere.

Edit: 4 fish tacos and a bottle of water. At least the game can be played offscreen.

It's so tempting to download it.. But I must restrain myself and wait till tomorrow morning to pick up my bundle pre-order. Damn all you lucky bastards that get to play it before me tho!

I originally planned to order a physical copy with a free amiibo using the Toys r Us deal, but I changed my mind and went for digital. I had a major fear that the disc drive would be load as hell when loading and during gameplay as I recall that being an annoyance of mine back with Brawl.

First time I've ever opted for digital over physical with Nintendo's software. We'll see how it goes. I guess, the convenience of having it always available is pretty handy and I suspect Smash will be the most played game for me over the lifetime of my Wii U.
