Super Smash Bros Wii U & 3DS Thread 4: New Year, Old Arguments

Drunk and about to go to sleep, so here's my drunk new year's confession:
The reveals of Rosalina and Zelda were the final push I needed to purchase a WiiU, which is resting soundly in my suitcase here in the hotel.

Rosalina is one of my favourite new Nintendo characters, but I somehow never imagined she'd make it in. Even then, I never thought it could be such an inventive, ice-climbers style execution. As for Zelda, she's been my favourite female Nintendo character since about 1988 when I was 4, and she looks better than ever.

Haven't posted in this thread at all, really, but I'm looking forward to partaking in the hype once release gets close.

Here's hoping Tetra makes it in, and Lucas retains his place. Happy new year, SmashGaf.
 
as usual, my first game to play during the new year is smash bros melee.

I've been doing this since 2002, currently playing as fox, drunk :)
 
New avatar (thanks to Village) to celebrate last year, the year of Luigi and represent Smash GAF.

Looking forward to find out whose year this year is :D
WAAAAAAAAAAA?
 
I'm still waiting for my man Dillon

In a perfect world he would've replaced Sonic.

It's funny to think how much I wanted Sonic in Brawl and now that I got him I want all 3rd party chars out of my Smash :p
i bet your perfect world has the nazi's winning ww2 and george lucas still making movies too

Don't see they can't both co-exist and Dillon serve as an eShop rep like Fat Princess did for PSN in PSASBR.
 
I know he is, I guess it's a reaction to how underwhelming he was in Brawl (and I never cared for Snake aside from the surprise factor).

My perfect world has no Nazis. Also Sega are still making consoles.

Just like Fat Princess it's a fat chance.

Two things:

Are you Allistair Roo?

Secondly, in my perfect world, I wish there was a way to stream 3DS footage to mobile devices. Smash in 5.7" would be nice.

But Dillon and Sonic are far and apart. Sonic relies on rolling for the most part, but for Dillon it's just only an aspect of him.
 
Rolling Western's sort of a remix of the tower defense genre, right? I could imagine Dillon's moveset revolving around setting up turrets and being a largely defensive character.
 
Now people are saying sonic doesnt fit in smash? this week needs to end quickly so sakurai can save us.

Yeah. Sakurai can implement "mini towers" in his moveset, as well as use various items like grenades. Also he actually claws people when attacking (much more reliable than merely roll-grinding).

His move set could be quite unique. I'd personally love for him to be included. Maybe his down b could construct a gun tower for a few seconds.


Edit:beaten because I'm too lazy to read lol.

I'd like him as a sort of summoner though. Maybe even bringing in other Rangers for attacks.
 
Sonic is definitely meant for Smash he is real important they should add Shadow and Amy too but they should TAKE OUT SOLID SNAKE kojima betrayed Nintendo by not making a brand new metal gear for Nintendo Wii and Nintendo 3DS so you cant put snake in the new game because that would just be a big fuck you to sakurai and iwata

Nintendo should say "kojima you give us an exclusive metal gear and we will put in solid snake :) :) :)"

edit: bUT they should add in naruto alreadyu!!!!!

clearly Kojima is producing the new Wii U exclusive IP so that he can get Snake into Smash again

...did...did the Miiverse hivemind somehow take over Neogaf?
 
I'm starting to regret wishing SmashGAF a happy new year.

It's utterly astounding that people are all too happy to take shits on characters they don't like being in the game or even having a chance at being in the game. Not because they're actually taking away a chance at another character or there's competition or something: You just don't like the character and can't seem to help but think "fuck all their fans, I don't like the character and therefore they're not worthy of being in Smash Bros and should be removed." I will concede that I take a few too many shits on one character (Toon Link) in a fashion similar to this, but I'm going to make a point not to do that anymore after coming to realize how obnoxious it actually is.

Shocking revelation: You are not the entire audience for the game: you pissing and moaning over a character does not invalidate all the other people that wanted to see the character in the game. You don't have to play as the character if you don't want to (at least not for an extended period of time) , and watching/ beating the shit out of something you don't like or care about isn't going to hurt you. Stop acting like this is some inexcusable affront directed at you that needs to be redressed.

Normally I can tolerate SmashGAF's nastier days, but these kind of "discussions" that pop up are basically emblematic of everything I find wrong with a lot of the posters on Gaming side: Nothing is ever "fine" or something you feel apathetic towards or needs a bit of improvement: Nay, it is either magnificent or an abomination. "Perfection", as the ideal to be pursued is only defined by what you yourself liked or cared about and not what actually addresses the needs or wants of the greatest number of people or could open up new possibilities.

Not many of you here are actually like this, but the fact that we get posters that do this stupid shit frequently enough compelled me to speak up. These sorts of arguments are never productive and after hundreds of these deals that never change peoples' minds everyone should know better than to get into them, because all they ever do is whip up bad blood in a crossover fandom already notorious for it.

I apologize if this was a tad overbearing, but this is something I have absolutely no patience for. If this is a banworthy offense, I accept my punishment.

Damn right! Let's get some characters that will actually be in upcoming Nintendo games like Cranky Kong, X guy, and Mario's kart.
It'd be too cool if those happened.
