Here's hoping Namco Bandai will have some input on the movesets and animations. My standards coming into SSBB4 are purposely low cause I was hugely let down with Brawl...but if I could have a few wishes I would die a peaceful man if......

- They brought back after-the-battle bonuses. Stuff like "Pratfaller" and "KO Artist" were awesome and gave me a sort of incentive to try to pull off different things in battle to get some of these awards. Some were just insane like "Mystic" lol (Shooting star death when match/time is up)

- Event Match....why the FUCK they got rid of this is beyond me.

- Customizable movesets. You can spend coins received in game for winning matches or from other modes to buy new B moves for each character. Hate FLUDD? No prob....tack on a Hammer Bros hammer spin for Down B or a Forward B gliding attack from either Caped Mario or Raccoon Mario can replace the Cape Reflect.

- Alternate costumes

- Stage hazards switch to turn then on or off

- Custom Brawl deeper settings. Ex: Stamina Brawl with %999 stamina, everyone Super Mushroomed with Franklin Badges or something.

What are you guys' input?

Event Matches were never removed.

Also I like the idea of Stamina Brawl with more customized options!

 

[SuperSah]

Wonder if this game will have different languages this time around.
Now, I'm merely talking about the menus/settings and all the text the game might have.
Keep the voice narrator the same.

When I bought Brawl, I barely spoke english at the moment so it was a nightmare when I found out the game only came in english. I felt disappointed because it was one of my most anticipated games then and has been (so far) the only one that doesn't have more languages.

Theorically, this game will be bigger than Brawl so it wouldn't hurt them to do so.
Besides, not everyone speaks english so that's a problem too.

If you're in Europe, games get 5 in 1 languages. Depends where you are I guess.


I'd rather them try to limit the amount of Pokémon fighters, please.

YES

Exists.

That sounds like a big pain in the butt to balance, but if it was fair then sure I guess.

- Alternate costumes
That'd be neat, but I think Sakurai already shot it down.

- Stage hazards switch to turn then on or off
That'd also be nice but seems too anti-sakurai.

- Custom Brawl deeper settings. Ex: Stamina Brawl with %999 stamina, everyone Super Mushroomed with Franklin Badges or something.
...is these not in brawl? Maybe not customizing your health in stamina mode, but stamina mode + super mushroom + etc.
What are you guys' input?

And in order to unlock him you have to break the game by doing some weird tasks and swimming on the edge of a shore.

When you battle him, you automatically loose it scratches up your disk and the wii u just shoots the disk out, it ricochets and hits you in the right side of your face.

It wins and you loose 60 bucks.

It was but if I can remember correctly you couldn't go too much in depth, I think the Stamina had a limit of like 300 or something and you could only have like one transformation status and one status effect on you for the match or something like that. I could be wrong, its been ages since I touched Custom Brawl...hell....Vanilla Brawl at all lol, and I haven't even checked to see if Project M has it lol

[SuperAngelo64]

So I was surprised to see Waluigi in a non-sports game and decided to look into this.

Apparently he knows Muay Thai....I might be in camp Waluigi for Smash now...

 

[Village]

Fun fact the wii U has just as much power as the Xbone and the Ps4 , its just being used for its disk propulsion system for the new WII U fit, it shoots your games at you and you dodge them and they break. Or you catch them and they still break and you get cut. Already got my preorder, 150 iwata bucks.



on a less silly note , each version of smash bros is supposed to have the same amount of content, yes?

If so since DS games are usually 40 bucks, will we be getting a cheaper smash bros or a more expensive 3ds game.

 

[Roo]

Yeah, I knew the European version had different languages.
But I find Spain's accent really annoying.
I wish they used a more neutral spanish (my native language) if they translated the narrator but I have yet to see if they would consider translate the text first.

Hmmm, all I've heard is that the 3DS version will just have different stages while having the same roster. No talks on any other content AFAIK aside from character customization. I wouldn't be surprised if there was less content considering the 3DS' cartridge doesn't carry as much data as Wii U discs do. I guess we'll wait and see.

3DS cartridges go up to 8GB. I'm sure Brawl was 7.5GB. Lower res assets should mean this game in theory can have way more content than Brawl in a smaller file.

I expect content to be almost identical.

Wii single layer disks are 4.7GB, Dual Layered are 8.7GB and 3DS starts from 2GB, 4GB and 8GB.

Oh wow, Waluigi does Muay Thai moves in G&W4? I never knew that!

Hopefully, Smash Bros. will be Waluigi's second appearance in the boxing ring.

Oh right, I keep forgetting that 3DS can go upto 8GB. I guess we don't have to worry much then.

No, Sakurai shot down customizable costumes

 

[GAMERG0D]

I just want less clones... Ganon needs to be redone.

 

[SmithnCo]

I just want less clones... Ganon needs to be redone.

I was kinda disappointed with Toon Link too, it's obvious he would be a clone but I had hoped he'd have some unique stuff like a Deku Leaf recovery move. If he returns I hope he's more unique too, though Ganon definitely takes priority.

 

[DICKS AHOY]

I'm sort of fine with where most of the clones are at in Brawl (though I have absolutely no problem with them being reworked to be more original), but Ganondorf absolutely needs to be rehauled. Don't care if it's at the cost of a new character, but it's maddening how he's still just a slower Falcon. I could even see how you could keep in some of his kicks, down-air and the like while working in his more traditional powers so Melee/Brawl users wouldn't feel alienated.

I'd like his stranglehold to stay though, that shit is rad.

 

[I'M FINISHED!]

If Ganondorf becomes less of a clone it will be fun to see the mod community turn him back into one. Yuck. I understand that Brawl has some problems but more characters with more unique moves is not one of them.

 

[FlynnCL]

I wouldn't mind if they just completely redid Ganon from the ground up.

Also, here's hoping for a new Ike-type character for this Brawl, as he's definitely going. Either Fire Emblem: Awakening characters could fill that void or even Kid Icarus's Magnus.

 

[Boss Doggie]

this thing looks like he just wants to do parkour and listen to indie rock while having a fence-sitting position when it comes to most politics but believes that we are being crushed by corporate america

wait wat

 

[Whiskeymatt]

If they take away Ganondorf's dair, murder-choke, Wizard Kick, jab, or fair without replacements of equal or greater value I will have to find a new main :|

 

[A Human Becoming]

Toon Conductor Link in the background of a 3DS map is a good indicator he won't be. He was my main in Brawl.

 

[zroid]

They can redo Ganondorf entirely, so long as Warlock Punch and Volcano Kick remain intact. :>

What baffles me the most about Toon Link being a clone in Brawl was that he has to be one of the easiest characters to design a new moveset around. You could come up with a moveset that differentiates him from Link entirely in about 15 minutes by basing it off of the Wind Waker alone.

 

[Platy]

Or remake or keep.

Only one choice

I vote for remake

 

[Codeblue]

The only move of his that I really liked was the boot.

I want chokeslam back too. Pretty badass move that could be funny in the right situations.

 

[DICKS AHOY]

What about Wind Waker Link who'd wear distinctly different clothes to Spirit Tracks Link regardless?

 

[zroid]

The truth is I only want WP and VK to stay because my friends and I have a ritual where we'd play timed rounds on Battlefield, all as Ganondorf, with the self-imposed restriction that we can only use those two moves. Oh, and slow-motion and sudden death are on.

Good times!

 

[YosemiteHam]

Ganondorf needs to be completely and utterly rehauled, if they can't, then they should scrap him. They don't need to add in clones for the sake of having a certain character in the game. My dream would be for the roster in SSB4 to be like 35-40 completely different, mechanically unique characters. No clones or go home.

I know this probably won't happen, but damn do I want it to happen.

 

[ffdgh]

Scrapping him if he was still a clone...semi clone is overkill....

Yeah but programming it will obviously take some work.

I'm more upset about cloned final smashes.. Though I do hope clones are more luigified..

 

[Clefargle]

My #1 character on my wishlist is Midna. Her moveset and final smash make themselves. If you want to get inventive make her ride wolf link. They could function similar to
ice climbers x Amaterasu.

That reminds me of Jigglypuff only battles in Melee. Everyone spamming (and missing) the down special. It was amazing (especially on Corneria where the airwings could kill you).

Just so you know, Peach also represents these games. Her frying pan comes from her appearance in the modern takeoff of Chef in G&W Gallery 2 (and 4).

 

[IntelliHeath]

When in 2014 do you all think the game will be out? I think the Wii U version is looking pretty good so far, I could see it beating the 3DS version to the market. Going to predict Wii U Smash in late spring of 2014, with Smash 3DS making it out in the fall.

I'm still betting on Sept 23 2014 Week (Sept 21 or Sept 23)

Well it could be argued that it might be inspired by Super Mario RPG.

That screenshot is random as hell. Not pretty at all. The ground textures are pretty poor. It could just be early development, but that needs fixing.

Again, not a flattering shot. Olimar's arm looks freaky.

Leave Toon Link alone, you jerks. Not his fault "serious" Link sucks butt.
