Super Smash Bros Wii U and 3DS: Info Collection - Dojo, Mega Man and Trailer! 2014!

Our souls, they are one.

I'll still love you if we ever disagree on something, but indeed, it is cool knowing someone with similar tastes in AWESOME.
 
From the "next-gen" consoles, FFXV and MGSV are definitely the most interesting picks. Main concerns there are the camera in FFXV and Kojima's tendency to have no self-control editing his cutscenes in MGSV (which stands to be exceptionally painful here, where we have scenes such as operating on a child without the use of anesthesia -- that was excruciating to watch even in a trailer where there's music and you don't hear the kid screaming).

Those gripes aside, the two games look wonderful. Redeemed an otherwise sort of bland showing for the next generation. I'm definitely looking forward to getting a PS4 at some point.

But thank ye gaming gods for Nintendo. This year they delivered, in spades, what I had hoped they'd deliver last year. Just gobs and gobs of COLOR, WARMTH, WHIMSY. Crisp, clear image quality with shaders and texture and slick lighting up the ying-yang. Fantastical art direction and instantly likeable characters and wondrously creative worlds. Mario Kart 8 blew my mind. 3D World looks like something I would've dreamt of as a kid, the whole team ganging up to fight Chargin' Chucks and ride Loch Ness Monsters. Tropical Freeze introduces Viking penguins -- the next best thing after pirate crocs! And of course, SUPER SMASH BROS., now with sociopathic townsfolk, smoking hot yoga pants and MEGA MAN.

What a show. Best E3 since 2010. In fact, E3 TIER TIME:

1) E3 2013
2) E3 2010
3) E3 2006
4) E3 2004
5) E3 2002 **

** Was E3 2002 the one that had Super Mario Sunshine, Metroid Prime and Wind Waker?

Super Mario Sunshine and Wind Waker's first trailer was shown at Space World 2001


Also Metroid Prime was at 2001 (along with Melee IIRC)
 
this is just the fucking hottest shit ever

THIS AND PORTABLE AGHAGHGHAHHBAMAMAGADDDDD

2014 god dammit

I cannot believe how good the 3DS version looks. CANT
It really is amazing. The 3DS version looks incredible.

Yeah, but I'm talking about the E3 where TWW and MP were playable and everyone went from being down on them to singing a more positive tune. I distinctly recall an E3 where there was showfloor video of Link running around Outset Island. As soon as I heard the music, I was sold.

Speaking of TWW, I'll post this wallpaper I whipped together again, along with the Smash Bros. ones (1600x900, uncompressed on ABLOAD):

Indeed. Dayone-ing both versions (even if I don't have a Wii U by then, which I doubt since it has a pretty good line up this holiday season).

3DS version is gonna be RIDICULOUS. PLEASE let there be global online matchmaking.

I just want competent online lol. With word out of NNIDs and Miiverse coming to the 3DS, it should have a better implemented online system.

that's the only thing that worries me right now. Im in south america so my latency is bound to suck. I played every Mario Kart version with worldwide people with no issues but that's way less active and im sure they do some weird tricks to get it to work. When you're talking about a fighting game where timing is everything, I get worried :(

...especially after Brawl...
 
yeah fuck guys now im sad again

there's no way this game's multiplayer's gonna function well from here

you know how in Mario Kart DS sometimes you'd shoot a shell and it would stay right behind the other player you're trying to hit sort of lagging for like, 1 second? something as small as that is just gonna ruin everything in this game

Did you play multiplayer in Kid Icarus Uprising? It was great. Absolutely chaotic, with some twitchy shootouts and melee face-offs. Yet it held up extremely well online. Things have improved dramatically since the days of Brawl's online mode.

Namco is working on this and they're good with online. BELIEVE.

Can anyone who has played Tekken 3D: Prime Edition, SSF3D, or DOA:Dimensions say anything about each respective games' online multiplayer?

I remember the game running at an all mighty 1 frame per second when I played Brawl against an online friend who lived a few blocks away from me. No items on screen, final-destination, still somehow one of the worst cases of lag I've ever witnessed despite both parties being in optimal (for Australia anyway) conditions online-wise.

ANYTHING at this point would be better to me at this point. Brawl truly has a horrifically awful online-mode.
 
Wow. 3DS Smash does look great. The decision to have a black outline was smart also. Damn, Sakurai thinks of everything.

I'm going in with the lowest expectations possible. Getting a racing game to work well is easy compared to a fighting game. Hopefully Namco brings it. If they can get the netcode working, I will be thrilled.
 
im purely talking out of the fact that im here dudes:

I get spotty online with pretty much everything unless im playing against other people in South America (and just sometimes at that).

im sure it'll be fine from NA, but from deep south south america? yeah, I have my doubts

Yeah, Uprising's online was smooth as butter. Good thing it was too, or else this wouldn't have been possible:

That's weird. I had smooth experience with couple of friends in different states. When it come to random battles, it's terrible.
 
either way im pumped tho. Hopefully the online is a nice surprise. If not, my best friend is bound to get it and he lives 5 blocks away. We'll just have to duke it out till the end of times like Melee days.

I was getting a WiiU for this game but honestly if the 3DS version delivers enough, I might just skip smash bros U and wait for a further price-drop/game releasing.

All we can do now is hope for the best.

Well, from what I heard from interviews, it seem that 3DS might be the weakest link. It would be better if we get both but I understand some people can't afford it.

Smash U should be out for the holidays 2014. I could see two pricedrops by then, one for each holiday. And of course, more games will be out.

Not to dissuade you from the 3DS version, since that looks great too.
 
I noticed something about this screenshot.
ibgDNnFblqDDtL.png


Some people speculated that it may be a cutscene, but I don't think it is, due to this.

You can standby while facing forward.
Could that screenshot be an implication that we'll be able to walk into that tent at some point?
 
I just realized: Even if they just stick to the male Villager, the alternate colors for the Villager will probably feature different T-shirts, like the different gear Pikachu wears. So by default he has the red #1 shirt, but perhaps he'll have an alternate with, say, the black shirt with red flames.

Why on earth would I live there?

Also while it's probably not as bad as your situation, living in what's apparently an awkward area for internet suppliers to give proper service to in my area does sometimes render online play a pain in the ass with the constant disconnects. Already know if those XBone internet minimum speed rumors are true it would never work in my house.
 
Pretty sure that concerns about the netcode are unfounded, Namco is legendary for their fighting game netcode. Smooth as silk.

Obviously that might not save you if you're in Uruguay but who knows.

The screenshot just looks like it was taken while either 1) they were taunting (maybe it's possible to taunt in the opposite direction now?), or 2) while they were turning and temporarily facing the background.

I think it's safe to say it'll probably be the weakest in comparison, but I really enjoy smash bros at it's core more than when it offers more bells and whistles (extra modes, stickers, etc etc).

Im dandy with just core mechanics, same rooster, 4-player battles, boom.

I'll end up maining 1 guy and playing 24/7 in one stage anyway, lol.

But yeah, if the WiiU drops price and such I might get it, all depends on the circumstance.

Im just glad I dont feel 100% obligated to get one now. I mean who knew what the 3DS version was..

That's if Nintendo would let them input their famous netcode in Smash instead of Nintendo's.

Also Salsa, I forget to mention that both games wouldn't be release at same time, so I don't know which version would release at first.

Well, I imagine Nintendo tapped Namco for a reason. Their ability to get online right might be one of the reasons -- I'm sure Sakurai knows Brawl's online wasn't up to snuff.

Also, for the new page, since I love looking at the 3DS version:

I think his point was less about the game's netcode itself and more just how bad the service is in Uruguay in general.

Really glad I have a ton of local friends who love Smash though, it made Brawl's lack of usable online here a total non-issue.

I have to wonder how much involvement Namco actually has with the game, since only HAL/Nintendo are listed on the website. It would suck if they're just being used as an asset mill and don't ever get to touch any infrastructure stuff.
 
Gonna bring up something people probably noticed, but hasn't been discussed in the thread. It's about Pit's Up Special.

It seems like the wings flapping is gone and he is now gliding instead, and he goes diagonal instead of straight up.

That's if Nintendo would let them input their famous netcode in Smash instead of Nintendo's.

Also Salsa, I forget to mention that both games wouldn't be release at same time, so I don't know which version would release at first.

I doubt Nintendo would do that. I'm pretty sure that Sakurai or someone said something about how the devs have experience with online.

Where did they say that both games won't release at the same time? They said it might not.

here's the funny thing tho:

Internet in general is more than decent. We just get skimped on upload speed, wich sucks since we just need more in order to properly connect with servers so far away.

I bet some of you guys are even lower than that but it doesnt matter since you're closer to the people you'd be connecting with.

so basically: im complaining about geography, lol.
 
Did Nintendo say this? I didn't catch it.
IGN reported it here. Basically they're having issues with the 3DS version in some areas like working in characters like the Ice Climbers (nice we had that not-so-subtle hint they're back considering how many people thought they were axed during Brawl's development) which use more than one character for one playable slot, so they might not wind up releasing at the same time since Nintendo wants them to have roster parity.

I'll gladly take that scenario over having characters cut from the Wii U version since they don't 'work' on the 3DS version.

Thanks for the link! I missed it. I'll give Sakurai as much time as he needs.
