Here's my minimal Adventure Mode idea. It's like an expansion of Melee's, and it doesn't require any elaborate CGI like the Subspace Emissary had; there's just a movie to open the mode and perhaps one to close it.
Dr. Eggman and Dr. Wily plot to take over the Nintendo universe, and they've acquired the services of some of Nintendo's biggest villains to help in their endeavor.
You're on a platform in the middle of a room, and there's a big locked door directly in front of you. Off to the sides are doors with various series logos above them: Mario, Pokémon, Zelda, Donkey Kong, et cetera. In any order you like, you enter one of the themed doors and you play a side-scrolling platformer in the style of that particular series. At the end, there's a boss fight. After you complete all of those, the door in the middle of the room opens and you go on to the final side-scroller (with all sorts of mixed enemies) ending in an Eggman/Wily boss battle.

I'm into competent stories. So far fighting games have managed to achieve zero of these. In fact SSBB had one of the better ones cause they clearly didnt give a fuck.

That would be awesome mode. I would support that.
That would be cool if it happened.
* suggestions.
You keep the cutscenes.
Instead of doors you pick planets, you corssoever as the story progresses. And there aren't any themed boss battles , some are some aren't.
And the enemy isnt DR.W and eggman,
But a huge threat, or something existential.
Or Pokey. Yeah make it Pokey.

So basically nothing like what he proposed.

That's like saying if they could make a competent racing mode for Street Fighter then they should throw it in. "Street Fighter is a fighting game, but it wouldn't be!" There's no sense in your argument for why they should be focusing on platforming and adventure when neither of those two genres have anything to do with the primary concept of the game. People buy Smash Bros. because Nintendo's characters come to fight. Although I tend to stay away from false assumptions, it is safe to say that no one bought Brawl for Subspace alone, and in the end, Subspace ended as a forgetable distraction that the majority of the community agrees should have been neglected for development elsewhere.

I like this a lot, actually. A very simple plot direction: Nintendo's villains gather, and Nintendo's heroes respond. I also favor the idea of placing a home-portal, per se, where you can select the franchised levels from within. Keep the worlds to the characters' universes, and don't bother with new but generic baddies that offer nothing as far as excitement or value goes.
Sounds the same except for doors replaced with planets, and sometimes there are different bosses.That is about it, What I am suggesting Is just milky way wishes.
Also Pokey being the bad guy makes a lot more sense. Eventually Eggman and DR.W will stop being an ass if it will save there skin.Pokey however is a complete nutjob. He gives no fucks. He is perfect, that kid is probably the most diabolical villain in the whole Nintendo stable. He would be just evil enough to free some type of space alien just to fuck with all the planets.
Pokey is ride or die evil.

Huh? #3, #4, and #6 are blatantly false.
3. You can set your own rules when hosting friends.
4. There is a spectator mode. You can even bet coins on who would win.
6. See #3.

I'm talking about in general online play. Though friend play was awful because the game (randomly?) chose between your two settings for what to do...or something. I swear me and my opponent would both have all items turned off, and they would still show up sometimes.
Was there really a spectator mode with coin betting? I need to see video proof of that, because I never saw evidence of that.
Yeah, you could set things in friend matches, but how are you supposed to make friends?
The spectator mode page on the Dojo hasn't been taken down yet though most of the embedded images are missing. They're mostly still on the server if you click them.

The spectator mode was pretty prominent in Brawl. Hard to miss.

Damn, I must have forgotten about that. After so many "connection failed" messages and in-game drops, I just plum forgot.
Add "/wii" after smashbros.com and everything works.

I wonder when Sakurai might reveal more characters, and in what fashion. At the end of a Nintendo Direct? A Miiverse posting followed by a website update? Maybe not until the Tokyo Game Show?
Not that history will repeat itself, but just out of curiosity, how many weeks passed between Brawl's E3 2006 debut and when Ike was first unveiled on the Dojo?

Hey, I remember that.
After Brawl was revealed in May 2006, there was a huge drought of information that stretched into over a year, until the Dojo finally opened in May 2007. And even then, we didn't get Ike until August, which means we had to wait an entire year and three months/around 56 weeks for a single new character after the initial trailer.
I seriously wonder how we survived back then.
Pokey is definitely the most evil thing in the Nintendo stable. Especially after Mother 3.
Only the same amount of characters. They're getting different stages and maybe even modes. 3DS can handle fighters with big rosters if Street Fighter and Tekken are any indication (and those are early 3DS games in addition to being ports).

May 10, 2006 - Aug 1, 2007.
So that would be 1 year, 2 months, 21 days.
I hope to see new characters on next Nintendo Direct, but I wouldn't get my hope high.
But don't you see, it did! The characters were cold and serious 100% of the time. The story was clearly trying to be dramatic (see Mario / Link witnessing Peach / Zelda go down, or R.O.B watching his subordinates perish). It would have been 10X better if they went for a more lighthearted approach. Oh and talking! The characters should definitely talk this time (see Kid Icarus: Uprising)

Inafune on megaman in smashbros
Lol, wow
lol, where's that from?

Edit:
Upon reading it, I thought it was a funny, if transparent, way for Inafune to try and throw in one more mention.
Then I read this:
And it reminded me that Inafune was off his rocker.

I actually kept track of all of this for a long time and found myself patently surprised that so many GAF members automatically jumped on the "less that 50" bandwagon without anything more than a loose interpretation of Skurai's E3 words regarding "reduced" characters. I think we're going to very easily hit 50 this time around, potentially 50 - 55, especially with comments from the Nintendo Direct waaaaaaaaay back announcing the Namco-Bandai dev group as the co-collaborator.

...Yes, no Japanese game has ever been cellshaded.
Inafune has really fallen on hard times.
While I didn't think otherwise the whole time, the idea that the characters need to be split seems quite silly to me. The 3DS isn't super weak that it can't handle the switch from Samus to ZSS or Zelda to Sheik.
lol wow. I never liked Inafune due to his personality and the way he comes off in these interviews.

I don't like to be overconfident with that kind of numbers, haha. I wound assume 45-50 would be safe numbers at least.
Found it at other forum.

Very interesting read. This makes me curious to see how the 3DS version will turn out. I'm more than likely getting both no matter what, but a few people I've talked to aren't totally sold on a 3DS version.
I'm still going to keep a low expectation on character number though. If it is relatively on par with Brawl or so then I'll be content and if it goes higher then I'll be pleasantly surprised. Win-win situation.

Not sure if it has been posted before, sorry if old news:

AFAIK, streaming data from the cart would actually be faster than doing so from an optical drive, such as the WiiU's. As long as either half of the character doesn't take up a lot more memory than the other, it should be a relatively painless thing to, say, free up the VRAM and RAM Zelda's character data is taking up and replacing it with Sheik's.
Having two characters in-game at once, such as the Ice Climbers, would eat up twice the VRAM and render time compared to a single character, and the worst-case scenario of four players using Ice Climbers would have eight characters to keep track of at once, and which could also become desynched and move separately.
Hopefully it's just a temporary issue while they sort things out, but if they're having problems with that, then that'd possibly mean bad news for additional characters and objects that must be loaded and unloaded repeatedly at runtime, such as pokéballs or assist trophies.
Holy shit, those are definitely GameFAQS posts under the OP.
Yeah, I'd say there's no way that this isn't a punch out stage.
This guy is just reading way too much into conventional Japanese rhetorical style. "Maybe", "to some degree" , etc. are used most often as pragmatic forms rather than lexical semantic.
Before he left capcom , he suggested something terrible. I forgot what it was by I remember being quite mad because I think they went though with it.

He brought me one of the best games ever made with Dead Rising. Also Frank West in Smash Bros....so much move set potential.

What if they had ranked Smash Bros Wii-U servers? Where your coin bets were put up against odds that were calculated from each player's skill and win/loss with that character in online(and maybe offline) ranked matches? And you could use the coins for superficial store items?
I welcome a smash bros wii-u coin economy.

Here's a second batch of comparisons. I would have played in Smashville for more of them for a more authentic replication, but I figured it would be a moot point since my Smashville is already dark compared to the the daytime official images. Here is the first batch for those who may have missed it.
