Super Smash Bros Wii U and 3DS Thread 3: Ridley's Believe It or Not!

Sorry, but for once I agree with SuperSah.

Doge style writing has somehow overtaken the old "|_| |? 4 5700|>1|) |)00|)00 |-|34|)!!!!1111" style of old in terms of making the writer look like a moran.
 
Wii games have terrible jaggies, for sure. DKCR really stands out as one that didn't use anti-aliasing at all, it seems.

The Wii U seems to do pretty well. Pikmin 3, I didn't notice them at all. WW HD, same thing. NSMBU they were noticeable on the map screen, but not really anywhere else.

If you really want to see some bad jaggies, play any PS3 game on a nice HD tv. It really brings them out.
 
The cord or port or whatever that displays graphics to the tv on Wii is actually more blurry than it should be, so that also plays into the equation. Gamecube games look much better on Gamecube than on Wii due to this.
 
480p vs 480p. I don't see it?

The actual GPU has a downgraded video output, which makes for a dirtier image even though it's processing the same images at the same resolution, both progressive and interlace.

I'm not actually that well versed on it, but someone here can probably give you the more technical explanation.

This must have drove some of yall craaaaazy. I used to think this was as good as it was gonna get as a kid, myself.

I want Blocky Mario as an alt costume.
 
I have no idea about what the fuck you guys are taking about. But I am in love with these visuals. Let us see more of it in motion Sakurai! Give us gifs!

Wonder if the stage will have a gravity gimmick. I think in the end we'll get better stages on Wii U. I don't see some stages working 3ds for the same of screen real estate.

It kinda sucks, but I guess it's better that both versions at least have some type of difference. The 3ds stages so far have been nice.
 
Yep. You can DL Mario and Fox (I think most actually) skins from Smash on 64, and even Sonic's model from Sonic the Fighters.

I think it was the smart design decision. My biggest concern about the 3DS version was that even on console when the camera zooms out really far (like New Pork City), it can be hard to tell where your character is.

Unique stages plus the black outlines seems like a great solution from Sakurai.
 
Wii games in general just seemed to have really bad aliasing. One I can recall off the top of my head was that Super Paper Mario had aliasing all over the place, while Paper Mario 2 was relatively smooth. Metroid Prime 3 also had much more noticeable jaggies than Metroid Prime 2, despite visually looking much better.

All those games used antialiasing, infact most games do, but guys the wii can only do so much aliasing and can't rely on resolution to help hide it, so they stick out more
 
Hm, we still haven't seen a good clear shot of the entirety of Windy Hill Zone.

Actually, there's a few stages Sakurai hasn't given a good, unobstructed clear shot of. The Garden of Hope, for instance, looks quite expansive, but every shot of it has been of small fractions of it. Has anyone managed to piece it together? Strange that we've known about it since July and yet we still don't know its general shape even.

The Reset Bomb stage in the 3DS version is another mystery. This is still the best, clearest shot of the stage's layout. I'm guessing there's not a lot else there and the visual change is its main gimmick, but it's hard to say.

And it's kind of funny, for all the shots set in Pyrosphere and the Ridley teasing we still don't know if the stage has any hazards at all, which would be a first for a Metroid stage (though I doubt it very much). I still think it's likely to have rising lava. We'll see, I guess.

I kinda wish there was a stage section to the official site so Sakurai could dispel some mysteries (like what's up with the two variants to the Animal Crossing stage), but, oh well, I guess the mystery is part of the daily screenshots' charm.

Also, the Reset Bomb stage was the last new stage shown for the 3DS version, and that was way back in July. I think we're due, but, eh, Sakurai is quite a whimsical guy.
 
I'd personally want to see a DKCR or Kirby Ultra Star stage next for the 3DS. Guessing their Wii U counterparts would be a DKCTF (MAXIMUM DONKEY SATURATION) and an Epic Yarn stage. Also weird we've seen nothing for Pokemon yet (and uh, Star Fox I guess though at this rate it's probably going to be SF64 and nothing else).
 
Yea, some stages haven't been shown clearly at all, and yea, Windy Hill Zone has not been shown clearly (I personally think it may be a scrolling stage due to the stage seeming to be large).

I'm sure they will add a part in the site that shows the stages closer to release.
 
As part of a regular review of old permanent bans, I unpermed HUELEN10. If you know him or are in contact with him, he's free to use his old account. Most people re-register after all this time so if you're HUELEN10 and you're using an alt account that hasn't been detected and banned, first; congratulations on eluding detection for such a long time. Second, you're welcome to switch back to HUELEN10. I am posting in this thread with the intent of reaching HUELEN10 because he was interested in Sonic and so might be following Smash threads. No need to quote me or derail to discuss this issue in here. This is not an invitation to lobby to unban other permanently banned posters. Cheers.

HOLY MEGATON! #greeneyes4lyfe

EDIT: I know you said no need to quote, but this just surprised me a lot.

Out of curiosity... why did you lift his permaban?
 
So you guys think the reveal will be tonight or tomorrow? Typically it seems like we get a new character on Thursday so I'm keeping my fingers crossed for tonight.

It's up in the air really, if its not this week, it has to be next week. Dont think I can take sakurai trolling us on pokemon X and Y release again
 
Few people saw any of the previous reveals coming (even the retrospectively obvious ones like Toon Link on WWHD's release). Since so many people are expecting a character this week, we're probably not going to get one. Sakurai is watching.

I don't think Toon Link was too obvious even with the WWHD release. Most clone like character and one of the last unlockables in Brawl (seemed last minute too given how he had no role in SSE) made me weary on if he was coming back, but here we are now.

I wouldn't be surprised if we get Yoshi, Wario, Zelda, or Ganondorf tonight. Not expecting anything though.
 
Tonight's pic is going to be something boring like Mario, Luigi, and Peach running together on the Galaxy or 3D Land stage with a caption like: "Pic of the day. Super Mario 3D World is now available! [Insert obvious detail about the stage/characters here.]" I guarantee it.
