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

Probably a stage hazard, which I'm fine with. Just play FD if you don't want stage hazards.

What is it with third party stages having weird gimmicks? Shadow Moses Island has those destructible walls that make horizontal KOs difficult. Trying to KO others with Diddy Kong is awful there. Green Hill Zone has the destructible ground and the checkpoint pole, which is annoying to maneuver around. Both have walk-off edges, so they're a chain-grabber's paradise. And now Wily's Castle has the Yellow Devil to contend with. If Pac-Man is in, his stage will probably have the ghosts running around, causing mayhem. Can we please have a gimmick-less third party stage, Sakurai?

Nothing abnormal about it. The majority of the Nintendo character's stages have gimmicks too. What makes you think they are targeting third party stages only? The most popular stages without gimmicks (FD & Battlefield) aren't related to any specific franchise.

The new Sonic stage looks okay at least from the little we've seen of it.

Not every level has to be a plain old platform.

Looks like you could easily dodge it.. why can't it have a stage hazard and still be competitive? I think you guys might have been talking about this earlier.

I agree I wouldn't want it to happen often, but it should probably show up at least once or twice during a 10 minute fight.

If you have 4 people fighting it out, it would be a pain to essentially have it broken up via jumping/ducking sequences with limited space. Consider that Yellow Devil's "blobs" are decent sized, in addition to each "blob" having varying height making it more chaotic overall. Finally it seems like it would take many of them to actually complete the Yellow Devil so if there are 1 or 2 on screen at a time then the sequence could last a while.

I don't mind a stage hazard unless it completely breaks the flow of battle which is why the Yellow Devil worries me.

Windy Hill looks to be a flat stage with no bottomless pits.....and possibly a gravity curve like the Galaxy stage. Then again, Eggman or the Deadly Six (specifically Zazz, since Windy Hill is his stage) could pop up.

Smashville is more popular than FD and Battlefield (maybe even combined) in competitive Brawl
try again

Brawl FD in particular is noted for being the least neutral neutral stage of them all

I think it is common sense that they are completely DIFFERENT characters, so it wouldn't make sense to put an alt model. At most it will be a recolor, which is fine since it doesn't change the character.

I think the most flawed part of this and the others logic is that I stated my opinion or view of what I would like to see, regardless of how you feel about the suggestion.

Or is my right to state such against some kind unspoken GAF rule?

I'm not saying it's gonna happen. I'm saying I would like to see it. You can disgaree all you want, my friend.

lame
where's the Ridley one
Click to expand...

I only do smash characters, barring two exceptions:

1. I get commissioned to do something else.
2. I'm doing a sprite related to another thread/announcement/that's not gaf related.


Ridley doesn't fall in any of those two camps, he'll get a sprite in due time though.
When he's announced playable.

This Palutena mod for Brawl which I use in Project M is pretty cool. When you get Final Smash, she gets her gear.

Is that the Palutena model that's put over Zelda? And I assume by gear, you mean her goddess symbol thingy appearing behind her when she gets a smash ball? Or is this something new with a moveset included?

And ugh, I wish someone could find a way to rip the models from Uprising. The face on the Brawl model looks so bad in comparison, it's just depressing.

Speaking of depressing, that Pony hate on the last page, so petty some of you are.

YES! Neorice is indeed good.

On a separate note, you guys are getting me excited to play as Palutena in 4. Is it wrong I haven't played KI:U yet? It's the big gap I have in my 3DS gaming for whatever reason.

Yes it is. I highly recommend it.

By the time you finish it, you'll want to play as several different people in SSB4.

I'll echo prodigy and say YES. If you get past the funky controls, it really is one of the best games ever made. Considering it is a Sakurai game it really adds to the excitement and hype what he'll take from Uprising and add to Smash (great online play, music, voice acting, extra content, etc)
 
KI needs a WII U remake.

No seriously The controls would be less funky it would look better, and they could stuff extra stuff in it.

From what I've seen, KI is the most requested 3DS game that people want remade on Wii U.

Not surprising since a remake would be fantastic for so many reasons.

Well I guess that settles that.
 
I love stage gimmicks, just not the ones that are completely annoying. Spear Pillar's flips and 75m in general comes to mind immediately...

Even though New Pork City is poorly designed layout-wise, the Ultimate Chimera gimmick was cool.

Does this make me a bad person?

Real men do it glitchless.

stage gimmicks are fine, just as long as:
1) they aren't completely retarded (why hello there, SPEAR PILLAR)
2) there's a decent amount of stages that are actually competitive

edit: rofl at half the previous responses basically adding "fuck you Spear Pillar" at the end
 
Also not a fan of gimmicks that are basically insta-kills. IE, getting trapped between the two dudes on the G&W stage. Mario Bros skirts the line but at least it's a free for all with everyone throwing those damn turtle shells and crabs.
 
I don't mind stage hazards either. I don't even mind Spear Pillar. It's that Mario Bros stage I can do without for it being so tiny and exploitable hazards.
 
I tend to like gimmicky stages as long as there's nothing that pops out and damages you/knocks you back. Big Blue is one of my favorite casual stages. Yoshi Story with the cloud that saves you is my favorite normal. I like Pirate Ship but could do without the bombs, and flipper needs to be toned down.
