Sakurai confirms Smash trailer at E3 direct!

OK, so Chrom will probably be a newcomer in the vid, who else? I just want King K. Rool and Black Freakin' Shadow. Maybe a Ridley. Perhaps a Knuckles. Even
the guy from friggin Geist
as a trophy or something. I want all the characters I never got in Brawl.
 
Coulda swore he said no clones for Brawl, looked it up and can't find anything. Either way, fuck clones.

Clone characters should just be made into alternate costumes, rather than taking up character slots. Make Falco into a Fox alt, for example, or Dr. Mario a costume for Mario.
 
They have to do costumes, right? Like it's a done deal at this point, right?


EDIT: Like, with actual new models?
 
I just had a thought.

If Mega Man does get added, where does he get his design and moveset from? Is he an amalgamation of Mega Men throughout the years or is he X or is he MM2's Mega Man since that seems to be the most popular game in the series?

Why have Black Shadow when Ganondorf can be replaced by Blood Falcon?
 
Hey, last time Sakurai said there would be no clones. I hope me makes good on that promise this time.
They did a sort-of better job with Brawl, like with Mario & Luigi feeling more unique than in Melee, but then we got stuff like Fox/Wolf/Falco and Ness/Lucas having the same Final Smash, only slightly different. Hoping there'll be less clones than before, but then again, the more characters you add to a roster, the harder it is to make them unique.

Little Mac is the only character who I think you can confidently have as a shoo-in for the trailer. He'll be this trailer's Pit/Ice Climbers.

I'm gonna predict Mac, Chrom, Shulk.

I doubt it. I think it will be more likely with Takamaru since Little Mac just had sequel for Wii.
 
You're misunderstanding the whole purpose of the Smash Bros. series. Smash Bros. has always been a game that celebrates Nintendo's stars. With the evolution and creation of new faces and consoles, Smash Bros. follows suit. Its premise combined with its huge success undoubtfully means there will always be a new Smash Bros. game. So far, they've kept the pattern: one installment per console. That's not an overbearing frequency in the slightest, and it not only keeps the Smash Bros. community pleased but also keeps Nintendo's mascots refreshed and lively. Sakurai losing steam for the series won't impact its presence in the slightest; Sakurai even wanted Brawl to be the conclusion to the series, but Iwata and other high-ends basically demanded he pressed forward. Should Sakurai utterly sever the ties in the future (which I find unlikely), it wouldn't be too difficult for Nintendo to appoint the development elsewhere. Bottom line:Smash Bros. is too important to drop.

Poster ^ is right.



Well, we could expecting SSB5 for next new console if it's going to happens.

Also we still have plenty characters to last for next two generation of SSB4. You can check out how variable of characters that people are predicting to see in the SSB4. Check other people' list @ GAF's Prediction Contest

brawl came out in 2007 and it has been 6 years since then...
Well i think all of you are misunderstanding my point. I'm seeing a lot of, "how is once per console too much!!!???" Development time for each game is very long and pretty much fills in this lengthy time gap you guys keep bringing up. And it's cool to see nintendo put together a large new team for a game like this, but I would like to see the same efforts from these people put into new IPs. And yeah I know smash is a money maker, but yeah after 5 titles, give it to another team is all I'm saying, or do something drastically different with it. Yet somehow this is crazy to you guys. And believe me i love smash!(melee is one of the only games i play competitively and im actually pretty damn good, and hey i made the dojo thread years back... ) But yeah, after 5 titles I would like to see the team and or/ the amount of effort nintendo puts into making teams for this put onto something else. that's it.


ps. im pretty damn stoked for the new trailer

Bad Boxart Mega Man is the only Mega Man now.
 
I doubt it. I think it will be more likely with Takamaru since Little Mac just had sequel for Wii.

Real talk: nobody has a fucking clue who Takamaru is. His game never came out outside of Japan. Will he be in the game? Yes. Will be he be in the reveal trailer? Not ahead of Little Mac.

Oh, and Punch-Out!! was a Top 10 NES and Wii game. He's Nintendo royalty, time they treat him as such.

Why people like falco , and some of his moves are differnet

DR.Mario I can agree with , dr.mario is just mario but slower.

Like litterally.

You must hate TTT2

I don't misunderstood your point and I think most of us just disagreed with you there. There is no point for them to spend a lot of money to make a new IP that they might have no idea if it will be success or fail so it's too risky move for them to do that.

Also THEY DID GAVE IT TO OTHER TEAM twice. Also I'm sure that you have heard of phrase, if it's not broken then don't fix it.
 
If they DO end up putting in alternate costumes (like Wario except you have to buy them from some in-game shop or something) what do you think they'll add?

I feel like Dr. Mario for Mario is pretty obvious and Roy for Marth (hell, give him Lucina as well since people seem to like her). I'd love to see Mr. L for Luigi.

Also as far as movesets go give Mario the tornado again.
 
I still think Little Mac, Takamaru and Palutena are almost definitely going to be in SSB4's announcement trailer on Tuesday. Shulk, Ridley, Chrom and K. Rool I still see being likely and maybe showing up on Tuesday, just aren't quite as obvious shoe-ins to me as the formerly listed characters.

the team is just like 15 dudes and namco-bandai, and if namco-bandai weren't working on this all they'd be making is more tekken rehashes and spinoffs.
 
I just can't take Little Mac seriously unless [VGCW spoilers]

He sells out as a corporate shill, beats the shit out of a Russian, turns his back on his corporate paymaster, gets hit by a car, then travels back in time with Solid Snake and Phoenix Wright to discover who hit him, and then buries Dracula

MAC IS BACK

that train of thought is terrible and if was actually true smash bros wouldn't exist.
 
i hope they totally reset all the movesets
I'd be up for this. Allow characters to take advantage of moves & items they've used in other games that they haven't used in Smash Bros., like Luigi could use the Poltergust 5000 or maybe work some moves from spin-offs like Mario & Luigi, Paper Mario, or Kirby Epic Yarn.
 
Same here, but it will be hard to figure out which one is true since I'm sure that many people would trying to be fake leakers.
If it has over 50 characters, it's probably fake.

If it has Sora in it, it's probably fake.

If the pictures aren't all in 3D somehow, (barring 2d characters like G&W), it's probably fake.

Follow these three rules and you can knock out 80% of the rosters you'll see.
