And what about us who want unlockables, hm?

You asked why people detest unlocking, and I gave you an answer.

I don't think you have to worry. The game will have unlocking as it always has. In fact, unlocking and "progression" have been extremely profitable since Call of Duty 4. It's a great way to keep people hooked and decrease the chance they'll trade in a game. If anything, we're going to see more unlocking, not less.

But if your question was sincere, then I'm down for cheat codes. You can unlock content, and I can enter the Konami code at the beginning of all my games, so I can play the game how I want.

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

Unlock everything cheat code for those who don't want to futz around

unlocks for the rest of us who do

done

I was thinking that there could be a "Party Mode" that gives you all playable characters, even from the start of the game, but you only have access to what stages and assist trophies you've unlocked so far, you have no access to alternative modes like Special Matches or Tournament Mode, and nothing you do in this mode counts towards any unlockables, character, stage, or otherwise.

 

[Tesseract]

i hope they're progressive enough to include ranked matchmaking of different varieties.

 

[Bill Rizer]

I hope that other characters than Bowser get reworked a bit. Donkey Kong needs the most imho. His running kick is quite underwhelming and a sort of wrestling-styled move like the new Bowser's dropkick would be wonderful. Overall, he lacks consistency between all of his attack and some animations look stiff compared to Brawl's standard (especially newcomers' ultra smooth moves). And if I'm not wrong, he still lacks an aerial down + B.

 

[Nose Master]

any word on online yet?

Brawl had online (kind of), why wouldn't this?

 

[ahm998]

Link must be hungry.

I need lighting & Texture like this in super smash wii u.

He's probably asking if there's word on Sakurai mentioning online features or acknowledging the issues Brawl had with online.


...Actually, has Sakurai ever acknowledged Brawl's issues with online play?

 

[Trike]

We also need a Link design like that.

Spoiler

though the one we got is also pretty cool

Game of the forever if it was like that. Beautiful.

720p at 20-30fps confirmed?

 

[ahm998]

720p at 20-30fps confirmed?

Nope specially after Mario Kart 8 , Project Cars , Bayonetta 2 confirm.

And I think Miyamoto will make zelda 60fps/720p

 

[Kouriozan]

It already looks pretty good and there is still like 12+ months before it's done.
Sakurai, take all the time you need, we can wait.

Lawl at the end too.

I just clapped.

Though I'm sure I looked strange, just sitting there applauding my computer screen.

 

[Valjean Lafitte]

Remember when Pit had a different art style in Brawl after his reveal and how it changed in-game? Pretty much shows that the game obviously isn't done yet

What? I don't remember him looking different.

 

[Kokonoe]

Let's just say that was a lot more civil than the embarrassing stuff I was doing.

Either way, glad he's in.

Shame that was a parody. No doubt Egoraptor was overjoyed by the news though considering he's a big fan of Mega Man.

As for me, I shed tears of joy. I normally don't have that happen to me but Smash Bros found a way. I was spamming one of my friends with HOLY SHIT MEGAMAN IS IN SMASH HOLY FUCK DUDE WHAT OH MY GOD.

 

[Jintor]

I liked Max's reaction even though I'm pretty sure he was hamming it up a bit

 

[Mpl90]

You said things like "LET'S FUCKING GO" or "THANK YOU JACKET!", didn't you?

I had friends do that to me too...while I was watching the ND. Thankfully, NOE had already spoiled me by having a stream highlight of something like "Super Smash Bros: Now with Mega Man"

 

[Kokonoe]

Hahaha, yeah, I was saying and screaming all types of jibberish.

Then there was this

Gotta say though: crowd pop is way, way better than a bunch of people filming themselves wearing headsets

even that small group in front of the TV was better than anything else there, lol

 

[Boss Doggie]

Oh wait nvm, I thought you were saying why Smash shouldn't get unlockables.

 

[Valjean Lafitte]

Haha at the villager's face in the URL at the bottom.

...Oh! It seems that his previous comics also stylized the URL to fit with their respective comics!

*mind blown*

How have I never noticed that?! 0_0

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

Another excuse to re-read BitF a third time!

I think the way Brawl did unlocks were fine. The "Play x. no of Brawls" to unlock characters were fine, and the extra stuff was made for people who wanted more time with the game anyway.

We better get three separate prize walls this time like Kid Icarus!

 

[Jintor]

Let's talk about Samus

 

[Jackano]

Let's talk about Samus

I do hope they are going to keep ZSS too. She was in Other M and Brawl so theorically it's a go but is there any people who thinks whe will be out? Just to mesure the odds!

 

[sinxtanx]

Unlocks are fun to have, but sometimes I think characters in smash could be faster to unlock. Subspace emissary was a good way of doing that in Brawl, but if you're just there to play multi, I personally think that you should be able to choose the hidden "?" slots on the character select, and then have them revealed when the fight starts. Or at least unlock them every other fight or so.

 

[Berordn]

I'd be surprised if she didn't come back, she was fun to play as and had a totally unique moveset. They tease us with the Zero Laser in the trailer too, so she's gotta be.

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

Wouldn't be surprised if they redesigned Zero Suit Samus though.

 

[demidar]

That's a pretty shitty apartment for a famed bounty hunter.

Samus enjoys the simple things in life

 

[Nocturnowl]

That's a pretty shitty apartment for a famed bounty hunter.

Just for you the next Metroid game will be Samus moving into her new mansion only for the removal guys to accidentally drop all her powerups everywhere leading to a mansion metroidvania.
Can't get into the attic without that space jump, need the morph ball to enter the basement and the whole place is infested with dust monsters.

And that's why she sticks to the smaller scale living areas.

 

[Mpl90]

Exactly.
Cooking for dinner, reading a book with your cat, tiding up your clothe, fighting a big flying creature in your metal armour complete with a shooter cannon,...

The simple things in life, indeed.

 

[Dereck]

Makes me re-evaluate my own life of sorts.

Don't worry, there's loads of extra rooms and hidden storage space, but you probably won't see them all on your first walkthrough of the apartment.

[evilromero]

I feel like Simon Belmont is perfectly crafted for this game and it's sad that he'll get passed over for less iconic characters.

First, his moveset just screams "Smash Bros." He has the holy water, the axe (perfect for anti-aerial attacks), boomerang cross, dagger and for his smash move- the holy cross. Then there are all the music remix and stage possibilities. Vampire Hunter, Simon's Theme and Bloody Tears. If this game had Simon Belmont, Mega Man and old school looking Sonic in one place, I'd be too happy. Like a childhood dream game.

 

[Bill Rizer]

Yeah, and given the choice of Megaman, Simon definitely should be the obvious other guest. No other character than them better represent the golden age of Nintendo (aside from Ninty characters obviously) and the Konami/Capcom ancient rivalry. Him or Goemon.

simon belmont i would argue isn't the most iconic character anymore, i would argue.
