I hope they bring back the Red Koopa shell. I used to love using Fox's reflector until it was a instant shield breaker.

 

[Troubled Bat]

Not entirely, the other day I had a dream we got a stage editor that allowed us to flood the platforms in slippery water for smash.

I approve of your dream. Dream Prophet!

i never realized the red shell was gone... wtf

Please no. I hated the red shell.

Hell, i'd rather have the blue shell than the red shell at this point IMO.

 

[C.Olimar788]

The most important question to ask about the Ray Gun: does it fire electric rounds that reveal your opponent's skeleton like in Smash 64?

 

[-Horizon-]

Please no. I hated the red shell.

A blue shell would be hilarious.

 

[Timeaisis]

A blue shell would be hilarious.

You throw it, it seeks out the highest stock/lowest damage player, explodes, and then randomly switches everyone in the blast's damage percentages, with you auto-healing to 0%.

 

[Spinluck]

oh man i would love that but then i sort of realized we already have a gun for that... so maybe too redundant? (unless the charged ray gun is different enough)

yea, it would be cool.

but I guess every gun/gun like item would feel a little less special if they were all able to charge their shot.

unless its something totally unique and unexpected.

 

[-Horizon-]

That'd be amazing. I would have matches with only that item on.

 

[Village]

Highst stock
or most knock outs

Lowest damage could ttack pople who just died.

 

[ffdgh]

Bleh I hate getting punish for playing well in mario kart with that accursed shell. Don't wanna get punished just for running away and avoiding the fray to win in smash

 

[georly]

But now they're wider so it should be more easy to spot than the older one if it were on the 3DS.

You make a good point. I wonder how many visual changes will be directly influenced by how they impact the 3ds version. I really really really hope we don't have a case of the game being gimped by trying to be compatible with two vastly different pieces of hardware. If anyone can pull it off, it's sakurai, but there are even limits as to what he can do. The stages being different in versions is a really good way to ensure you don't have to tone down stages on Wii U, but I wonder about what else is affected.

 

[Save 'N Quit]

Dislike the Ray Gun redesign.

Yeah, the addition of the smash logo is neat.

But the rest of the design looks like a real step down from Brawl.

 

[Troubled Bat]

I hope they bring back the Red Koopa shell. I used to love using Fox's reflector until it was a instant shield breaker.

Yes, most definitely! Honestly, bring back every item that has been created.

i never realized the red shell was gone... wtf

Come on qq.

 

[MaverickHunterAsh]

Liking the new Ray Gun design enough. I just hope we're due for another big reveal soon...

 

[Roo]

And Samus' final smash! It appeared in the first trailer.

Oh yeah.. of course D:

and Mario's

Eh... link?

 

[Troubled Bat]

Eh... link?

He was referring to the 3DS image of Gerudo Valley, where the left side was on fire. But its just a natural fire.

 

[PsychBat!]

And I'm back! I don't know for how long though. I can't stay away from my new 3DS XL for too long. It's amazing. ALBW rules!

OT: neat ray gun redesign.

 

[-Horizon-]

He was referring to the 3DS image of Gerudo Valley, where the left side was on fire. But its just a batural fire.

>.>

 

[Troubled Bat]

I don't know what you are talking about.

 

[Nudull]

The new ray gun looks pretty nice. I like the Smash logo and the neon glow.

 

[Platy]

At first I was angry, but then I realized that they're saving the NES Zapper for Captain N.

Believe.

Would be the most awesome fanservice EVER

You do realise the NES (or Famicom I should say) Zapper looks like a real gun, the very thing Sakurai is trying to avoid?

(master system zapper, but still...)

 

[Roo]

He was referring to the 3DS image of Gerudo Valley, where the left side was on fire. But its just a natural fire.

That's probably why I couldn't remember his final Smash.

 

[-Horizon-]

So...WFT pic tonight right?

I don't know what you are talking about.

Its too late to hide the evidence TB.

 

[Troubled Bat]

New character, I never give up! Tonight is THE night! :]

I don't know what you speak of, sorry.

 

[MrSaturn99]

The most important question to ask about the Ray Gun: does it fire electric rounds that reveal your opponent's skeleton like in Smash 64?

The definite question. Loved messing with that as a kid.

 

[Mista Koo]

Tonight we're getting either a DK or a Zelda character.

Spoiler

It's been a while since we've seen Donkey Kong. And Link is jealous of Mario.

 

[OrangeGrayBlue]

All aboard the new character hype train!

 

[Ryce]

I think these numbers are correct...

Site launch to Pikmin & Olimar = 31 days
Pikmin & Olimar to Luigi = 26 days
Luigi to Peach = 36 days
Peach to Toon Link = 14 days
Toon Link to Sonic = 5 days
Sonic to Marth = 37 days

Average wait = 25 days
Since Marth = 20 days

Toon Link screwed everything up, but there tends to be one character reveal per calendar month. I don't think we'll see anyone else until early December -- either next week or the week after that.

[J-Tier]

I guess Ray Gun is all we'll be getting this week.

 

[?oe?oe]

I SEE LITTLE MAC'S SISTER IN THE AUDIENCE!!!

 

[w00tkins]

It kinda looks like Bowser's shell is acting as a shield...

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

It kinda looks like Bowser's shell is acting as a shield...

Isn't that the starting frames of his ground Up-A where he jumps into the air?

I believe you've always had a few seconds of protection during it...

 

[foxuzamaki]

I SEE LITTLE MAC'S SISTER IN THE AUDIENCE!!!

Man, she's pretty hot.

 

[Troubled Bat]

[ALM5252]

You throw it, it seeks out the highest stock/lowest damage player, explodes, and then randomly switches everyone in the blast's damage percentages, with you auto-healing to 0%.

It could also be a faulty one that happens randomly. You throw it and it flies strait up into the air and comes back down to hit you! Haha.
