Hey, be grateful it has not taken as long as say, The Last Guardian or Final Fantasy 15 where we know VERY LITTLE of the game. At least with smash we got the PotD. Plus, the wait has been a wild ride on Smash GAF. Fun times.

Yup and it was basically Angry Birds, nothing special.

Ahh ok, thanks!
Thanks brospeh. Didn't mean to bum you out. And I still have plenty of faith. There's a whole month left!
BTW sorry if you guys have added me from the doc and I haven't added you back. I'm going to be going through the doc and adding everyone, I've just been supremely addicted to Donkey Kong lately. I don't know what happened. Pretty much all of my free time has been going to it.
Anyway I've been streaming it and continuing to try and pump up my score. If you're interested in getting hype for the ape in Smash come on by,

Thats because DK TF may be one of the best platformers of all time. It has great level design and great music. That game alone makes it worth owning a Wii U. Speaking of the doc, I need to add myself to that. Gonna need people to play against once the Wii U version comes out.

No worries, I just know how important this kind of thing is. Yeah, it's just a video game, but (at least for me) it's the cornerstone of my free time and interests. That's why I hate anyone wanting someone else's favorite character cut. I despise Waluigi, but if he gets in I'm happy for his fans.
And I meant to comment on your DK run in the thread you made, but that's awesome! I actually rewatched King of Kong with my girlfriend last night and it has me in a very arcade-y mood.

He's talking about the original Donkey Kong game.

Ehhh original DK is kinda boring. Nothing too special.
It just brought Mario to the world... Nothing too special.

At the time sure it was something special. But in todays day and age, Tropical Freeze is the better DK game.

This. That stage was horrible. Really the only stage that I feel needs to return on the Wii U one is Onett. Thats been the best stage so far in the whole Smash series.

Considering this year is the 15th anniversary of Smash, Smash 4 should have returning stages from all 3 previous Smash games. Would love to see Hyrule Castle and Saffron City from 64 return.

Yes to the first, I didn't like Saffron City at all though. Kirby's Dreamland would be my pick alongside Hyrule Castle!

Bring back the first Final Destination.
True, Onett is a fantastic stage, it better return. There are few stages as good as this one.
I just wish for more organic stages than in SSBB, too many 'floating platforms in front of a background' type of stages. Oh and a better huge one than New Pork City, Hyrule Temple is great, NPC is terrible.
Gerstmann with Yoshis?
YES. The ones in Melee were designed to utilize the character's move sets for the most part, while in Brawl it was just like "oh lol don't jump on the spikes. watch out for that bomb"

I look forward to trying out this new mode, looks like a lot of fun.
Awesome, still hope there will be a regular Smash the Target though.
What's up with this bomb? This looks like the stadium for the Home-run Contest, but there's no bat. Once you touch the bomb, it begins to count down. Give it enough damage and launch it at the right time then once the bomb's countdown hits zero !!
...It goes BOOOOOM! Not only will the blast destroy targets, but it'll also cause a chain reaction by using shattered walls and bomb blocks--all of which contributes to you getting a high score!! This is a new activity that combines the concepts of Target Smash and the Home-run Contest--it's called Target Blast! Your final score is the total you rack up over two rounds. Of course, your Target Blast scores contribute to your Global Smash Power, too.

I remember watching these and imitating them. Obviously, I wasn't nearly as precise and couldn't do it quite as fast, but utilizing the techniques often got me times higher than any of my friends. I was devastated when my file was deleted because I lost those times and the myriad of other records Melee collected.
Hell yeh. It's the same way I think too, especially for veterans. It can be especially rough with Snake sometimes because "he doesn't belong", but I'll just never understand that way of thinking especially with him being a vet an all.
And that's such a well done film. DK64 initially ignited my interest in it, but that movie made me interested in the score aspect when it came out. Recently a bar near to me got a machine and I started trying for score, I got addicted. My runs on stream tonight were pretty bad though.
I completely disagree with this and completely agree that it's apples an oranges, but to each his own. But I also do like apples and oranges, and TF is a wonderful game.
I still have no idea why they chose to use that stage over something like the barrel board or the rivets stage. It's such a bad layout for Smash, where the others I could see working. And the barrel stage is much more iconic. Sucks because I think it was a great idea for a stage, it was just no fun to play and it'll probably never be tried again.
Haha, I was surprised I actually remembered Ganondorf's break the targets, I immediately recognized it.
These were such a drag in Brawl. And there were trophies for clearing every level with every character, terrible and monotonous. I actually 100%'d Melee (i.e. all trophies, I didn't get all of the absurd notices like 100k-1 mil vs matches) but couldn't bring myself to repeating the feat in Brawl.

Angry Birds is fun so I don't mind seeing a clone of it in my Smusha Brothers.

I give it a week, maybe two, before we have very reliable leaks, possibly backed with photos, from the Japanese 3DS Version.
Someone is going to get this game early, and chances are they will post everything to the Internet.

Oh, definitely more than a week or two imo. I give it till late August. They kept Pokemon, which release globally, from having full-on release leaks till about 3 weeks before release. So I'm guessing the same for Smash.
Anyways, if Rayman were to be playable in the game, a Gamescom-timed reveal would make a ton of sense for the first European character* in Smash.
*not counting Diddy.
The game hasn't even gone gold yet. I can maybe see stuff happening after September 1st though. Not to mention the insane amount of fakes we will see the two or so weeks before legit so we will have no idea what's real and what's not. Remember the Pokemon XY leaks? No one knew who to trust.

I don't know, I think this game, people will be actively looking for ways of getting the game early. I'm sure there were for Pokemon too, but Smash just seems a lot larger of a leak hungry fan base. But I could see late August.
If Rayman was playable, they wouldn't have showed off his trophy as if it were nothing special.
True, this is a game that people very actively want to know more about. But there will be copies floating around in fewer regions, so a leak is less likely to be as early. At least that's how I'd think about it.
I donno, people were pretty damn hungry for Pokemon, plus there were many countries trying to get it early. I mean, shit, Europe and Canada were responsible for most of the leaks then, so it's hard to tell where, if anywhere, in Japan the game came out early.
And true...but at the same time, I donno. Ain't no predicting Sakurai.
