Super Smash Bros. for 3DS |OT| It's out in Japan

When games are in high demand Nintendo's servers always take a hit and I sure I got school the next day.

So it looks like I'll be going with the physical version.
 
Who's going digital for this one?

I'm thinking of it, just to be able to play it as soon as humanly possible.

How is Nintendo with e-shop launches? Is it likely to go on sale at 12:00am on the 3rd or later?

I wish I could have both. More places should give you a digital copy when you buy the box, that way you can have the best of both worlds.

I friggin' LOVE Dr. Mario - he was way better to play as in Melee than Vanillio.

I love how psychopathic the implications of him in Smash are too - some alternate universe version of Mario decided to go into pharmaceuticals before taking a vacation to try and get his doppleganger (and co) to OD on powerful prescription drugs.

You see, the good doctor HAS no friends. He is alone in his universe. And he is here to unleash the mightiest of wraths upon your nervous system.

First comes paralysis. Then comes cardiac arrest. Before the final blackness hits, you feel one last horse-dong sized "vitamin" being shoved down your throat, and your last experience in the mushroom kingdom is a simultaneous mixture of suffocation and full CNS shutdown.



Wahoo motherfucker, time to practice my medicine
So Dr. Mario's this guy?

I just can't fathom why they'd restrict online for Smash Run, outside technical issues. If anything, it's probably a mode that's more suited to online rather than local than standard matches, due to its focus on the player's individual actions.

Though if it was due to difficulty in implantation; there might be a small chance it could be fixed in a patch.
 
I tried asking in the other thread but I'm sure my post got lost in the 370+ pages (rediculous)...

Has anyone put together any definitive lists of the unlockable characters movesets? (Bowser jr., Dunk hunt, dr Mario, dark pit, Lucina, etc) that would be super helpful!

Michelangelo painted the Sistine Chapel. Yabuki turned off voice chat in Mario Kart races. True artists of their time.
Amazon.co.jp payment completed. Now to wait 2.5h for the download code.

There are so many custom moves, and the unlocks are apparently random, that I wouldn't expect such a list for a little while now. As fanatical as Smash fans are, these things still take time.
 
Hey guys! Here's the link to the document if you just want to see the list:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...Qrcl008lknv2jyuCNVqRSJLxw/edit#gid=1405843848

If you're wanting to add your info, quote this post to get a link to a questionnaire that will automatically add your info to it. Friend lists are limited as well, so don't go in thinking you'll add everyone in SmashGAF. Keep in mind that the 3DS is super silly and doesn't alert others when you friend them, so don't be afraid to let other know you've added them.

Just added my name to it.

I have been thinking over it too. I could download it immediately at midnight and have it ready for when I wake up in the morning, or I could wait to go out and get the physical in the evening.
Since Nintendo servers tend to get hammered when a big update or game is out and I don't want to deal with frustrating trouble like that, I'll probably take a physical cart.

added my name too.
 
I know I'm going for the digital release at midnight. I did it for Animal Crossing and didn't have too much trouble, so I don't think the servers are going to go down or anything. Plus Smash is a perfect game to have digital on a handheld.

Will be getting the physical copy of Smash Wii U, though, since it'll be nice to have that as a disc.

It's technical issues. Sakurai's already wary of the game/3DS's reliance on WiFi.

I would've preferred a new Adventure Mode myself.

BECAUSE HYPE DANGIT!

So, today is the day we'll get more official info from Nintendo. What time is the Niconico stream again?
I really have no clue. I don't even know when the tree house one starts lol

I knew you were a good person :)

I had a dalmatian so it makes it extra special ~
;)

Haha...wait a minute.

I mean if it survived the Pokémon launch, I think most people will be able to download it just fine at midnight.

So how many more hours are we looking at?

Time zones are too hard for me.

10.5 hours I think

assuming you're talking about the official japanese midnight release
