I'm sorry for going off topic here, but I just wanted to say that Smash Brothers finally clicked for me last night at about 11:30pm. I had been playing for about four and a half hours straight, trying to understand this game(I'm playing Brawl btw), and by god, I got it. I can't put into words what exactly it was that I 'got', but I found the fun. Needless to say, my hype for Smash 4 went from nonexistent to full on Hype Train status.

I'm all in. Smash Brothers is fucking fantastic.

Welcome to the Hype Train.

Your post seriously got me giddy. Smash is something really special to me.

Man, Villager's side B being Fishing Rod would be really cool. I'd imagine it could catch items from a distance away or be used as a tether recovery.

I think firing off a rocket Gyroid and the option to ride the rocket Gyroid is way cooler, though. Looks like one of the more fun moves in the game, and that' saying something when there are A LOT of fun moves in this game.

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

Desert of Didgeridoos has a number of stage elements that could fit well into a smash stage without being overbearing but mainly I just dig its visual mix of the desert trope and musical instruments.

Oh man, I would not mind that stage at allll

 

[Cody_D165]

Also, I'm for Rayman being a playable character, even if its unlikely to happen.


I really want Rayman playable now.

Hate to crush your dreams, but you'd find out sooner or later anyway

Hey guys, I love Ganondorf's Twilight Princess design, but how welcoming would you be to an OoT alt? It's such a classic look, I'd love to have it as an option (and I guess if nothing else it'll be one of the costumes for him in Hyrule Warriors):

The TP design is cool, but it feels like it's better suited to sit in a throne somewhere. OoT Ganon seems more like the one to fight with.

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

oh so sad now.

So how about those other two characters i wanted ):

 

[SenorArdilla]

Custom moves will probably just be something like the Gyroid gets homing abilities or there's a bigger boom at the end.

True too! Villager has the most adorable expression when he's riding it too. ; - ;

Yup it's my favorite gaming series of all time. Welcome to the hype train.

It's funny cause its a stage bass.

Not surprising, but nice to get some confirmation.

Thank god they deconfirmed it. Oh thank god.

Not because I dislike Rayman or anything like that. I just hate really stupid speculation.

I thought you said Desert of Doritos.

Come on, that was funny. At least I thought it was.

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

B-but yesterday everyone said Nintendo of Canada wasn't a source and didn't have a clue what they were talking about.

 

[mrhej]

Good, now we can focus on the actual Ubisoft character that's going to be in Smash.

The Rabbids.

 

[Nocturnowl]

The Doritos Pope stage hazard would be too OP.

Best design IMO

Look like it's final answer for Rayman's inclusion so people can stop making up a conspiracy theory about him being playable character.

 

[Village]

Good, now we can focus on the actual Ubisoft thing thats gonna be in smash.

The Assassins Creed Assassins outfit for link

Fixed... Changed rather.

 

[IntelliHeath]

I'm not sure how I would feel about Rabbids' inclusion.

 

[MrSaturn99]

...but what about conspiracy theories as to why he isn't?

 

[IntelliHeath]

...but what about conspiracy theories as to why he isn't?

Maybe because Sakurai already set the limit on numbers of third party characters being playable. I'm more curious on which categories they would put Rayman trophy under.

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

Fixed... Changed rather.

Sorry you don't have Uplay installed on your Wii U thus can't use this outfit


Install Uplay.
Sorry you don't have enough Uplay points to use this outfit (10,000 required) you can buy it for the low low price of $2.99. Buy now and unlock the Rayman Trophy in Super Smash Bros. For Wii U and 3DS.

 

[Beelzebufo]

...but what about conspiracy theories as to why he isn't?

I would guess that he was originally going to be playable, but was cut when Rayman Legends was delayed. It would explain why Rayman has a completely original model in Smash, even though it's just a trophy. It's the most likely explanation, but there's no way to say for sure, especially since I can't imagine Sakurai would ever acknowledge why an older model wasn't just reused.

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

Rabbids seem to be pretty popular.

I saw lots of Rabbids toys at Wal-Mart the other day, front of the aisle in plain site. Name one video-game character besides Skylanders where that happens with.

Ehhhhhh the rabbids?

 

[balladofwindfishes]

So how are they going to follow up on last week's excellent week of reveals?

 

[Beelzebufo]

So how are they going to follow up on last week's excellent week or reveals?

Veterans week? Ridley? A newcomer? There's a lot of things they could do. Maybe they'll follow a week of reveals with a week of nothing.

What an ugly fish.

I'll expect disappointment. That way there is only up from here!

Okay, what is everyone's prediction for tomorrow morning..

Mine is The Temple as returning stage.

Maybe the Spinner

That's a good way to look at it!

An explanation of the Bombchu.

 

[BY2K]

With the Hyrule Warriors Direct tomorrow, I wouldn't be surprised if the PotD was Zelda-related.

Bridge of Eldin stage

Spoiler

it'll be about Link or Zelda's alt colors lol

Oh lawd lol

 

[OricWindstar]

I'd love if we got some more info on the Star Fox stage they showed a couple of weeks back. I know he normally waits a while before explaining his "stage teases," but I really want to see if the Great Fox stays in space or travels from planet to planet. Hopefully it's the latter! I don't see us getting anything in the Hyrule Warriors Direct, but I'd love to be proven wrong.

I'm going big! Ganondorf!

 

[IntelliHeath]

Well, I could imagine that we "MIGHT" get Ganondorf on Hyrule Warrior's release date.

Tons of stages this time seem to use the traveling platform mechanic, so it would be odd for the great fox to be stationary.

Before you ask, It's P4RGaming, so it's satire.
