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

You're joking right?

Look at his creepy weird raised glove popping out of his nylon jersey, his shiny plastic head (for some reason even larger now) giving you a dead soulless stare, as the minimum wage theme park worker inside contemplates whether it's worth it to go on living.

Then there's all the other strange details - the obscenely large mastersword hilt, the strange, tailored skinny pantalloons, making him look like an emaciated puppet, the baton - not held, but rather crammed into the crook of his thumb. It's a clusterfuck of epic proportion.

Here's something thats going to blow your mind, toon link wasent made from scratch, he was most likely taken from WWH, everything is how he is in that game minus the subtle details sakurai has put on his clothes, his dead soulless stare? same stare he has in WW, glove? I actually have no idea what your talking about, toon link doesnt have any gloves, sword? unless with a pic of real comparison the master sword is most likely the same size, if its not, it was a design choice mos likely to have it be seen better, really the place of his baton? which still looks fine anyways? your going into nitpick territory.

"Today is the 15th Anniversary of the launch of the first Super Smash Bros. There may be some players out there who played it on the Nintendo 64 as kids that have grown into adults."

And this is the shit you give us? I'm never staying up late again. :(

I needed a good laugh. This is some high level trolling right here. Yes Sakurai people age unlike you.
 
Normally I don't like to complain about daily pics but I gotta be honest this is pretty lame for a 15th anniversary screenshot. Good thing it's just a fakeout for the Palutena reveal in today's surprise Smash Direct, right?

... right?
 
We just got... Sakurai'd YEAAHHH!!

There's no way Sakurai would reuse models from a Gamecube game for this game for a playable character. It is most certainly a different model.

I will only accept this if palutena says sorry to keep you waiting to the super smash sisters
:P.

I wasn't even hyped for this but you guys were hyping me with Wario Land 20th Anniversary + Smash 15th Anniversary.

Man we got literally zip. Not Smash Bros. 64 port on Wii U, no Wario, no Wario themed stage, NO NOTHING!!!!!! AAAAAAAARGGGGGH!!!!

hi

Kooky, shh, shh, it's okay. *pats head* We always have Wednesday to look forward to. Then.. Then all the wishes will come true. And the butterflies, the butterflies Kooky, will fly away happily.

Haha, no shit. It feels like he was going somewhere with that, but never did. As it stands, it's a completely mundane thing to say

Go to bed.

No, it's totally different. Compare the size of WW links head to his torso. It's about 2:3. SSBU head to torso is 1:1. It's also fatter and rounder (though the maximum diameter is about the same). That's not a nitpick. By glove I mean that his raised hand is unnaturally popping out if the sleeve, making it look like a glove.
 
Hey, at least there's a mean ol' Luma avatar out of it.

American Luma! Sakurai redeemed.

Kooky, shh, shh, it's okay. *pats head* We always have Wednesday to look forward to. Then.. Then all the wishes will come true. And the butterflies, the butterflies Kooky, will fly away happily.

Wednesday? What happens then?

All the wishes? :O! oh my god. the butterflies....I can see them...I can feel them in my heart and soul...how foolish I was to doubt the hype.

Let us walk into the sunset of hype and butterflies for eternity...
 
I see we're sharing Smash 64 memories.

Long story short, I saw it first at a Toys R Us. They had a machine you could push buttons on to see trailers for upcoming titles. Smash was on there. I could beat up Pikachu as Mario-- it had to be mine.
 
I dead ass can't sleep, I normally don't board the hype train, but gaf hype got me :(
Really hope they have a direct friday or announce a character tomorrow.
 
The Direct is on Friday, not Wednesday :P

Well we don't know for certain, it's uncharacteristic for Nintendo to hold Directs on days other than Wednesdays, plus for all we know Moon Chronicles will be unveiled on its own on Friday.

It'd make SENSE for Moon Chronicles to be unveiled in a Direct, but considering FAST Racing Neo was unveiled on its own (in the least impressive kind of "unveiling" however), it's possible.

That and I don't know if I can take TWO EXTRA DAYS! XD
 
yall are crazy for getting hyped for this. there are only two situations where you should get hyped for smash news. the japanese release date of a game with known SSB characters is the following day or if there's a ND. and it's still hit / miss.

no sanity, only hype, etc. etc.
 
Seriously guys, Wario is coming! I don't know when.. But he is coming! He will be the next character revealed!

The Direct is on Friday, not Wednesday :P

Wait, what? :0

Wednesday? What happens then?

All the wishes? :O! oh my god. the butterflies....I can see them...I can feel them in my heart and soul...how foolish I was to doubt the hype.

I don't know, but I wait for Wednesdays for all of eternity.

Yes, all the wishes. Your hopes and dreams becoming a reality like no other. They're calling for you Kokonoe. They want you by their side, as fly through the end of time in a ray of happiness only for you to enter the spiritual state in which all is nothing but a thought, that you can achieve for all you stand for.

Lets begin the journey, from the end to a new beginning.

What is the translator leak?
Translator Leak said:
- Rosalina is the only Mario newcomer.
Waluigi and Toad were at once considered, but Waluigi remains an Assist Trophy, and Toad a move for Peach.
- Bowser Junior, Paper Mario and Daisy were never considered. Bowser Junior was planned to be an Assist Trophy, but was scrapped.
Fawful is a new Mario Assist Trophy. He acts like Mr. Resetti, but will attack opponents at random.
- Diddy Kong will be the next revealed veteran, to coincide with Tropical Freeze’s release date.
Diddy is paired with Dixie Kong as a tag-team, similar to Zelda and Sheik.
- Dixie has a separate moveset from Diddy, but it’s still being worked on.
King K. Rool is a newcomer, the heaviest character on the roster. He is powerful and can KO light characters with 2 good Smash Attacks. His final smash has him use the blunderbuss and fire cannonballs from the top of the screen while they fly in from the sides as well.
- Gangplank Galleon is a stage.
There is a new Zelda character, although it’s kept a secret so far. The names heard most often are Tingle and Ghirahim.
- Ganondorf will be buffed, although he still retains some of C. Falcon’s moves. He can equip a sword using his Down Special.
Chrom is a Fire Emblem necomer. He wields the Falchion, and does not replace Ike.
- Chrom is expected to be revealed to celebrate the anniversary of the first Fire Emblem.
Lyn’s Assist Trophy from Brawl has been scrapped.
- King Gangrel and Aversa are the new Fire Emblem Assist Trophy. Gangrel runs around slicing with his sword, while Aversa flies above using Aversa’s Night. They are the “unexpected” Assist Trophy.
No newcomers for Yoshi or Wario.
- Wario’s overalls are now his default attire.
The Kat & Ana Assist Trophy has been scrapped.
- Ashley from WarioWare is a new Assist Trophy!
Ridley is a newcomer, and is scaled down a bit. It was a major feat on the development team.
- No new Star Fox characters.
Falco is farther away from being a Fox clone.
- Wolf is no longer a semi-clone.
Villager has a female costume.
- Mr. Resetti returns as an Assist Trophy.
Tom Nook is a new Assist Trophy. He apparently drops bells across the stage, which causes opponents to trip. (Due to Sakurai saying tripping is removed, it’s unknown if forced tripping, like this and Diddy’s bananas will return, or if only accidental tripping is removed.)
- Palutena is a newcomer, with her moves based directly off Uprising.
Magnus is a new Assist Trophy, and acts similarly to Little Mac in Brawl.
- All Pokemon veterans from Brawl return.
Mewtwo returns.
- Mewtwo and Lucario have very different movesets.
No new Kirby characters.
- Meta Knight will be revealed sometime in the summer of 2014.
No changes made to the EarthBound series.
- All misc. characters return (Mr. Game & Watch, R.O.B., Ice Climbers)
Little Mac is a newcomer. He has the look from the Punch-Out!! reboot for the Wii.
- The Male Wii Fit Trainer is indeed an alt. for Wii Fit Trainer.
Wii Fit Trainer has a butt attack. It is replaced by a headbutt for the male costume.
- King Hippo is an Assist Trophy.
The Ghosts from Luigi’s Mansion are an Assist Trophy.
- Snake returns.
Pac-Man will be the final newcomer. He is a secret character.
It's a fantastic rumor if true. The only thing better would be a playable Wonderful 101 rep.
