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

So I was wondering...Is Smash 4 not going to add any new gameplay/mechanic staples to the series?

Melee added the..pretty much everything. Side-B attacks, charged smashes, air dodging, directional attacks, way too much to list but you get the idea.
Brawl added Final Smashes and....tripping?
I guess Smash 4 is just gonna refine the previous mechanics and that's it?

Not that it's a bad thing, just thought about it a few minutes ago thinking how odd it was.
 
Eww MistyxAsh shipping. Pokemon shipping in general bleh.
Maybe Smash 4 should acknowledge Pokemon shipping by having a level on the SS Annie.
Something about this statement rubs me the wrong way. If every day was Weekend!SmashGAF, then the distinction between it and Weekday!SmashGAF would cease to exist, and noting it would be completely frivolous.
There once was a weekday SmashGAF. Not anymore.

Yeah, it seems that way. I'm a bit disappointed; I was hoping we'd see some sort of new attacks or techniques.

Well... Until we have the games, we won't really know for sure. Sakurai is holding his cards closer to his chest this time around, so it's possible he's come up with something like Team Final Smashes (as an example) and just hasn't shown it yet.

We probably won't see major news until February or April or so.

OH GOD I CAN'T WAIT THAT LONG.
THE SMASHBOMB DROUGHT IS TOO MUCH I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE.

SS Anne level or something along the lines of that would be pretty cool.

Honestly, I want them to use more game-based locations. I want sum Johto love too! Brawl didn't provide any Johto love!
 
I want a Hoenn level.

Every now and again a trumpet will rise out of the sea and blare GBA quality samples at a player for a OHKO. The rarest stage hazard will be sunlight because "where the fuck were all the fire types in the vanilla Hoenn region games?"

You're thinking of Diamond and Pearl. Ruby and Sapphire actually had quite a few: Torchic/Combusken/Blaziken, Vulpix/Ninetales, Slugma/Magcargo, Numel/Camerupt, and Torkoal.

Diamond and Pearl had a great selection of fire pokemon if you liked Rapidash.

For those of you who don't get it: That's the only other fire pokemon aside from the starter you can find in the region before beating the champion.

Well, that makes one person happy.

Its to be fair.

Infernape was like handing out Vanilliia SF4 sagat to the player.

Its still like handing out SF4 sagat, that dude is beastly.

" oh shit, everything in this gen is broken, how do we balance this"

" we could make the pokemon a bit wea.."


" NO FIRE TYPES"
 
according to everyone apparently weekendgaf is starting to pour into weekdaygaf, which means sakurai is going to be showing a new reveal soon, this literally always happens, people start losing their minds because of no new reveals and then sakurai comes in with the daily pic

Infernape was great but so were the other two starters.

It isn't fair that you have to choose only one.

I mean they were great sure, but infernape interms of actual use, good god.

Then again, a lot of things in that gen were broken/overpowered/generally good to use.

The Year of Cranky is upon us. Sakurai will not disappoint.
 
You're not the first to mention this but I still don't get why this means Yellow Devil has to be a stage hazard? For all we know, once we get to this stage in the single player, Yellow devil jumps off the Castle and the battle begins. Kinda of like the mini cutscene we get when we fight Master Hand.

Also can anyone remind me of a stage hazard in previous games that we could attack? In the Mega Man reveal trailer I remember seeing him shooting at Yellow Devil which means you can probably kill it. I don't recall ever being able to do that with past stage hazards (I usually play on very plain stages though so that could be why I'm forgetting).
I'm just going off of what Brawl did which did not have cutscenes for other bosses, but you're right that there weren't any equivalents to the Yellow Devil being an intractable stage hazard.

I completely agree.

Too bad Infernape is a poor man's Blaziken. :p
 
This is when I just lurk and wait for the conversation to turn back to Smash. Bringing up Ridley sometimes helps.
RIDLEY IS TOO BIG FOR SMASH! NOT JUST SIZE, BUT LANKINESS AS WELL!!! SAKURAI SAID IT WAS COMPLETELY IMPOSSIBRU TO ADD HIM TO THE GAMES SO STOP WHINING ABOUT IT!!!

------------------------------------------------------

RIDLEY WILL DEFINITELY BE IN SMASH! IF THEY COULD FIT BOWSER, THEY COULD FIT RIDLEY EASY!!!! BESIDES, WHO WOULD BE THE NEXT METROID REP IF RIDLEY WASN'T THERE?!? CONFIRMED!!!!

Am I helping?
 
I know we've been getting some news from Miiverse but I hate how Nintendo stays so quiet for so long with games. I want new news already! No, not little things like the site has given us. I want to see some new characters or new features.

Every time I walk into this thread I see some Pokemon shit. Why can't we ever have Star Fox shit where we talk about which ending of Star Fox Command is canonical?
