Wha? Aside from having blue hair both are completely different designs. Ike being replaced by Chrom as the second FE rep would not be surprising in the least.

Isn't Ike a bit of a speedster in RD/PoR and ended up being the slowish powerhouse?

I guess they could give Chrom the same treatment even though he has similar growths.

I love this screenshot. Smash Miiverse community is going to be entertaining.

This is my new favorite smash picture, I LOVED making snapshots in Brawl, now I can make this stuff for Miiverse.

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

Personally hoping the vacuum overhauls his entire moveset but that might be pushing it. I also kinda want to see Baby Mario saddle up on Yoshi this time around. Or at least have the baby bros together! Love those guys.

If it means I get to knock the shit out of Baby Mario going WAH WAH WAH, I'm all for it.

 

[Red Arremer]

That was probably the funniest thread I ever read on Smashboards. I was rolling at some of that shit.

IKR.

That... was an actual thing?!

Haha, that was a joke thread to parody all those threads that were like "omg, cloud shaped like character X, X confirmed!" etc.

 

[Jintor]

I'm trying to think how you could shrink Ridley down to a level playing field and yet somehow manage to not fuck up his proportions.

The answer is to make Ridley his own stage

 

[Dash Kappei]

Dat FOX’s tail, ugh so.... angular also, fuck the missing fur shading on DK and FOX (goddamn we had in back on GameCube, with Fox Adventures and DK Jungle Beat)

Btw, is it really confirmed the game is in 1080p? Remember COD BLOPS2's 1080p fiasco? Yeah, I'd like to see official confirmation.

 

[justchris]

So excited for Megaman, but if his stage doesn't have disappearing/reappearing blocks, then it's a travesty.

And maybe Ganondorf will finally get his own moveset. He deserves it.

 

[Xane]

Okay, got the Presskit.

[Want anything for the OT?]
There's tons of screenshots and art. I can upload the whole thing by request.

 

[ReiGun]

I gotta say, if the song heard in the trailer is the new theme, I love it. I'll miss Brawl's epic opera theme, but this is a fine replacement.

I really hope this game's soundtrack matches Brawl's.

 

[Xux]

I remember making a thread about that on SmashBoards and laughing at all the butthurt, lol.

 

[peaceiscloser]

I hope the music in this game turns out to be spectacular. Or at least, I hope we get a main theme that just screams EPIC and memorable like the Melee and Brawl themes were.

I'll be the Marth
E.G. Noob

Yes pls.

 

[Mista Koo]

Made some recolors of Mega Man. They are pretty much predictions.

Never played a Mega Man game other than Legends, just to add.


Made in Gimp.

Edit: Fixed the Black costume Mega Man!

Did a few alterations on yours:

Needed pink

 

[TheVampire]

Where is Captain Falcon?!
I need him!

 

[daxgame]

soo I heard this is going to be 1080p? wtf?? seems weird since they're aiming for constant 60fps.. now if WiiU can pull it off well of course I'm happy. but I don't want another "1080p" fiasco like Blops2 and NSMBU. I mean, I want a real good source for this. Anyone?

 

[qq more]

Someone make a Bad Box Art Mega Man alt color scheme!

 

[Red Arremer]

Playing cards with Ridley.

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

Smashboards are genuinely a hoot to read. "SSB4 looks exactly like Brawl!" It's like are they even looking at all the screenshots? Fuzzy Donkey Kong & Link's face, you can see Pit's toenails (ew).

 

[Espada]

Sakurai will do whatever it takes to make Chrom distinct from Marth while keeping true to the character. Who knows what he'll decide to do, but I doubt it'll be the slow bruiser archetype. Seeing how they translate into Smash is part of the fun.

Living up to his glorious unlockable character status. He shall return!

My guess is he'll have long reach with his Falchion, but be really slow & strong.

I've lurked for many years and yes they are often genuinely insane.

Well Chrom is a more blunt, non-nobleman in personality, even compared to Ike I think, so he could always go with changing Marth's attacks to more swift stabbing attacks and let Chrom have at Ike's smashing and crushing power attacks.

 

[BGBW]

I hope one of Villager's alt colours gives him the ¬‿¬ face.

Also I'm guessing one of his shirts will be the BB shirt.

 

[Broken Joystick]

Him and Yoshi have gone AWOL. Send out a Miiverse search party.

This is exactly the reason why I stopped frequenting the main boards and just bookmarked the backroom lol. As a matter of fact, that's exactly the reason why the backroom was created in the first place.
Imagine talking with these kids when trying to discuss competitive stuff, like the viability of a character, or why a stage should or shouldn't be used.

so... is tripping still in?

In the gameplay they showed, nobody tripped (except for Villager as part of one of his moves), but who knows.

 

[Bill Rizer]

Am I dreaming or Mario's trousers can be seen bending realistically depending on his legs position? They seem differently modeled in every screenshot.

I'm guessing Gamecube shirt. They still have that in the game right

Chroms final smash leaked.

They're pulling from Megaman 2 in a big, bad way. His alternates need to be his power colors from that game.

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

Somewhere probably! I'm hoping for one alt wearing his viking hat, dat AC nostalgia.

I assume that Kirby's hat will be that.

Yes.

Spoiler

It's a move.

 

[Red Arremer]

So far they've only shown Metal Blade and Leaf Shield, though. There's other Mega Man games covered as well - 1, 3 and 6. As a matter of fact, 3 has more moves (Top Spin, Hard Knuckle and Spark Shock) than 2.

 

[Sigismundo]

The Villager announced in Super Smash Bros 4 seems like he might become one unless if there are a few drawbacks on his moves. Mega Man's presentation seemed like he had a few ups and downs and the Wii Fit Trainer was neutral. But seeing what we have so far, we have a character who can dig characters into holes, STEAL projectile and fire it back at them, chop a tree and use it to knock characters out, throwing bowling balls, and using a net. Unless if he has certain limitations (Like a luck-based character or something), he's bound to become a Game Breaker.

Really? REALLY?

You're forgetting the Crash Bombs. Three each.

Crash Bomber, too (from 2), Dr Wily's Stage and Dr Wily's theme.

 

[Akibastman]

I was disappointed at first (Mega Man is cool, but wanted more characters), and then Wii Fit Trainer happened! PLEASE HOLD ME DOWN.
So ignoring Wii Fit Trainer, only Akibastman and Tyeforce predicted both Villager and Mega Man.

And get ready for that Little Mac, Pac-Man and Mii rumor to be true, because they're on my list too.

 

[Red Arremer]

Oh right, I did forget Crash Bombs.

Music doesn't mean much, imo. Mega Man 2's Wily Castle theme is the most popular Mega Man song ever. Of course they'd roll that one out. Same goes with the stage. They had to base it on one game, so might as well make it MM2 since that one's the best known one.

I rather think we'll get color schemes based on other characters from the series - Protoman, Bass, Roll, etc.

ts;gf

I never noticed before, but Mario bounces off the floor after getting fit.

I really need to requote this. It's magnificent.

 

[disap.ed]

I hope they will use the Donkey Kong Country fur tech in the end, looks sooo amazing in comparison.

 

[BGBW]

Please for the love of God, add Uniracer as a playable fighter.

Sorry to say, but Uniracer is dead. Pixar sued it out of existence.

[King of the Potato People]

The game will be great I'm sure, but was underwhelmed by the trailer. There wasn't a "Snake" moment that surprised me. Ha ha Travis Touchdown would have done it.

It's weird because Megaman is infinitely more relevant to SSB than Snake.

 

[Data West]

Word. Sonic and Mega Man to me were always THE third party guys. I never understood why people got so hyped about Snake other than it being out of left field.

 

[Jintor]

Because he's Snake!

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

Because he's Snake!

And is perfectly at home on PS4/Xbox One. Let him go. Him being in would be a joke at this point.

 

[Sir Ilpalazzo]

I don't get what you mean. He was pretty awesome in Brawl, I don't see why anyone would not want him to return.

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

It's really easy to see why people don't want him to return, and why he probably won't be in.

 

[peaceiscloser]

Snake: Kept you waiting, huh?
PS4/XBone: YES

I sorta do hope he's still in, I wouldn't want any characters leaving the roster at all.
