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

He also said no Animal Crossing kid but look how that turned out. "maybe he changed his mind" is always gonna be a valid counter-argument.

Sakurai has already said he isn't going to go overboard with third party characters for this game either. So it's safe to rule out the likes of non-vg characters.
 
I wouldn't mind knowing every character right now. This kinda game I don't mind being spoiled by stuff like that.

I wouldn't mind it but I remember when Melee came out and I saw on the characters for the first time when I unlocked them which was amazing. If they don't get revealed/spoiled before it releases I hope someone makes a spoiler-free unlock guide as soon as possible.
 
If its coming spring, I'm genuinely surprised that we haven't seen more newcomers or more solid info about character customization already.

I don't think Nintendo would want something like Smash Bros overshadowing 3d World. We haven't gotten any new details about Mario Kart 8 either, even though it's officially confirmed for spring. I guess we'll get another big Nintendo Direct in either January or February with a lot of new info about those two, even if Smash is later in the year.
 
I hope he saves most newcomers for the release. And hopefully they aren't spoiled online.

As a person who plays many a fighting game, not only do I not care if they are online. I hope he spoils all of them, and they are available from the start.


Anyways here is some Brawl related stupidity I participated in though the lull of valuable brawl information,, that I would like to share.

I want to announce a new bet to SmashGAF.

It will be against Batty for today. She betted that we will get a character reveal today, so if she lost then she will have to wear the avatar of my choice for a week. If I lost then I will have to wear her choice of avatar or something.

Batty is waiting for Wednesday FOREVEEEERRR!!

You had to make an announcement.

Batty Why!!!!

Edit: oh good that avatar isn't repulsive.

I do it for you guys!!

Yawn, Batty, you're barely ever right, so why try? D:

What happened to the Piggy that used to support me. :\

I kind of want her to lose now.

Haha. That is the first.
 
Loving Project M but I'm realizing something now about Brawl that I really hate. The lack of color in Brawl is really annoying, it's like all the color is washed out and there aren't any solids. It makes me want to texture swap everything on the characters.

Honestly, I still prefer it over the artstyle of SSBM and SSB. It also, while making the characters look somewhat washed out, made the stages look better than they normally would be.
Though, SSB4, both 3DS and Wii U, are going to knock the others out of the park. More so than the transition from SSBM to SSBB.

Zack and Yarn Kirby? Rad.

Yeah it was something I've noticed ever since Smash Bros 4's reveal. Looking back at Brawl, the lack of color is really jarring. Hated that it even affected most of the stages too... wasn't a fan of Green Hill's desaturated palette. That whole "let's make Smash Bros serious and epic!" direction was weird.
 
The art style/color palette is one of my favorite things about the new SSB. I didn't like how Brawl was designed as a "beginner's" Smash yet had the most mature look/ambiance of any game in the series.

Meanwhile it also has the most colorful UI in any fighting game

Consistency!

Brawl may have higher resolution textures and slightly more polygon count, some better lightning, but honestly I think Melee looks much better personally. Artstyle wise, how everything is colorful and meshes well with one another, especially on Sheik's face. In Brawl it's ugly.

This was immediately noticeable if you were playing Brawl on an HDTV right when it came out. Super grainy screen plus a weird 'realistic' palette makes the screen look really muddy. While the levels were still nice and bright, SSE also had that same really dull coloring which helped in making that mode far more boring than it had any right being.
 
I don't think everyone will have unique dizzy animations, but Little Mac should turn pink and be short of breath after having his shield broken.

Well, wouldn't it help to remember the time period Brawl came out in? If I remember correctly, it seemed that Brawl came out when the Wii needed another killer app badly since Galaxy was the year before and MKWii wasn't out yet. Plus, with the Wii, people wanted to see how Nintendo could recreate their franchises in the same "realistic" graphics that 360 and PS3 users were already accustomed to for some time, I was one of them and realize what an uh-oh that is. Games like Twilight Princess showed that people were stoked about the new art styles, so it seems Sakurai followed suit.

Personally, I'm so happy with the new games' art styles, I've realized that part of "Nintendo magic" to me is having bright colour palletes =) I never got into Galaxy 1, but loved Galaxy 2 to death probably because of that
 
I think both SSBM and SSBB don't look great in comparison to SSB Wii U/3DS. But Toon Link is bothering me in the 3DS version. He looks like his Brawl version on the 3DS.
 
Challenger Approaching!! forever! It better come back, it's literally the best feeling in the world.

Can I get a " do you play fighting games" Options and I can just have everyone, because all I do is just look up how to get everything and unlock it as quick as possible.
 
Well I'm feeling like tonight will be a lucky night! I'm willing to make a weeklong avatar bet that Sakurai will reveal a new stage this cold evening.
What have you done to me Troubled Bat?!
 
man if this actually comes out spring ill lose it

there was that newegg listing a while back that said the game was coming out may 16th too so that just adds to what that guy at nintendo germany said

Oh, yes. Seems like everyone will be joining me! :D

Now you see how important these bets are.

Despite the avatar bet, I'm feeling that there will be a character reveal too. It just feels right! lol

TONIGHT IS THE NIGHT!

That you should make an avatar bet with somebody. The stars are on your side.

I love this idea. :3

Watch it be nothing, leaving everyone disappointed.

In fact, I'm almost certain that no new playable character (veteran or newcomer) will be revealed, tomorrow.
 
man i fucking loved real denim mario back at melee's release

thought to myself that melee would be the fucking height of graphics because of stuff like that

i didn't play a lot of games back then
 
The fight is on!

If there's a new stage revealed tonight, I choose an avatar for you to use until next Wednesday. If there's no new stage, you choose mine.
Please be nice when I lose.

Ok deal! I don't want to lose my Terra that I made only yesterday so I gotta
BELIEVE
my pessimism will prevail
