mega man final smash always brings the hype, shit is crazy
No its not on disc. It's still being made.

How much have you used Game & Watch in vs mode? I'd imagine that if the stage didn't unlock with him, you need a certain amount of wins with him.

Seriously, it is one of the most satisfying final smashes for me and I'm not at all familiar with his series.
Wario got dat Armstrong sparkle.
Only hints of it.
Good.
I honestly would be willing to wait if that means we can get all the missing veterans lol
Thanks
No, I'm talking about the fact that Mario Kart 8's DLC is almost half the size of the main game because you're indeed getting half new game.

That analogy really doesn't work. Footballs awesomeness comes from the play by play not necessarily the TD. Smash's awesomeness comes from the play by play not necessarily the kill.

Will hackers be able to crack the game before the Wii U version is released and potentially unleashes a wave of extra content?
Tried that, 3 times, and also using his FS (since other stages unlock through those methods)
I'm going through classic with G&W now so we'll see if that does anything
Yes, and all stages besides Flat Zone 2
I'll assume the generic unlock method of beating classic with game and watch.
Edit: Beat me to it lol.

Maybe it's just me but does Link's forward smash seem significantly weaker than the other playable characters? I didn't use him much in Brawl so I can't remeber much about him then
Oh yeah up tilts are kind of difficult on the circle pad for me too

Hmm, I've only used Link a few times in the demo, but it didn't seem too weak to me. This is going to be a very stupid question, but since you said that you didn't use him much in Brawl, I feel the need to ask it. You know his forward smash is two attacks, right? Hit A again after the first swing.

I said wow
Everyone who has the game: listen to the Sound Test with good headphones and be prepared to eargasm.
Megaman's Hard Knuckle is going to really make people mad
Yup. Isn't it awesome?

I think it was confirmed to not have one, unfortunately.
It seems like all the stages have big boundaries -- there's no variance in size for them like in previous games. For example, Battlefield in Brawl/Melee had a pretty standard size for blastzones while FD had a higher ceiling than Battlefield or, in Melee, Dreamland 64 had the biggest blastzones relative to the legal stages used in tournaments.
It's a real problem. Even if the players adapt to it, I don't think lower % KOs will happen even if the offstage game improves. You can only go so far offstage with your attacks with one jump, your aerial mobility will have a great effect on how you can edgeguard offstage and if it sucks then you can't do much. Characters like Sheik, ZSS, and etc. already look like they're going to have really good offstage games but someone like Villager is going to suffer to some extent without any really good aerials for offstage edgeguarding (all he really has is Fair/Bair and even then that's hard to land because it's not a typical aerial).
I predict the early days of the game are going to be filled with Bowser, Sheik, ZSS, Kirby, Pikachu, MK, and etc. Characters that can easily chase offstage with aerials and then make it back safely + have really good onstage options for KOs.
It would be really nice if the dev team patched the blastzones, though... but I don't know if that is something that's on the table at all. We know they're not opposed to patches, but we're not sure what their limits are in terms of changing the game -- blastzones are part of character balance to some degree, after all.
Edit: Like, even a 5% overall decrease in their size would help immensely. Most of the KOs that aren't happening are literally like a few percent damage difference, it's kind of crazy and annoying at the same time. And it's especially annoying because of stale moves negation, meaning you can't use the same move again to try to KO which then further allows the other guy to live.
Nah. The first hit does more knockback at the tip of his blade while the second one is stronger near the hilt.
Hitting near the hilt with the first strike will usually lead to landing the second hit.

It... still hasn't sunk in that I've played Smash Bros 4
Like it feels weird. After all this time, wishing I could play, the hype, the leaks, everything and I've gotten to finally experience it.
I think it'll need to process a day or so before it really sinks in just how absolutely awesome this is.

Maybe Wii U only. I hope >.>
Maximum hype.
No input lag either? Felt like you were playing offline?
That's just nuts.

I really hope that it's because of DLC but I'm not sure since it might included save files' sizes since we can save up to 8 customized characters per specific characters if I heard it right. That would be 8 x 48, along with many Mii Fighters, so I wonder how much they would used up those memories. Also We have replays, screenshots, etc to think about.

So the patch actually stabilized the online? That is good to hear. I do not want slow-motion Brawl battles.
I agree the blast zones should be much smaller than they are.

Maybe that's why. I'll try it again tomorrow because i'm getting off now
Yup. Just had another smooth match. Like now I've got to play even more. This is too good to be true.

I'm curious about contents that are hidden in the files, like Brawl. I want to see a list of cut characters that almost made in the game.
Do we know the size it shows on the SD card in the settings? It could be uncompressed or something, though I doubt it.

I had a few hiccups with the local multiplayer but aside from that it's running pretty smoothly.

hot, steaming, as melted butter slips into the cracks, drizzled with sticky sweet syrup OH GOD
I hope the servers can withstand the onslaught of people trying to play on launch.
Do you have any tips for Mario vs. level 9 CPU Megaman on the demo? I described my woes earlier. I didn't realize Mario forward-air is a meteor for instance, but it's soooo slow it seems impossible to hit. Wouldn't the CPU Megaman just airdodge if I get him off thes tage and try to meteor hit?
I also have enormous difficulty doing any sort of short jumps, and connecting with any sort of smash attack.

Are there any secrets in the 3DS demo?
