If that happened though Pokemon would've had like, 7 (8!!! depending on how P&M worked) reps in comparison to Mario which went down to 4. I don't mind it being tied for first, but by far and away having the most reps would've been super awkward in my opinion.

... I do want *both* Jiggs and Mewtwo back in SSB4, even though that'll put it at 6 while Mario's at 5. Guess they could just start counting Yoshi as Mario related?

I said all the cut reps, which would put Mario at 5 with Doc's return (9 counting Yoshi, DK, Wario, Diddy; 10 since Dixie would also be returning), and Zelda at 7 (Toon Zelda and Toon Sheik/Tetra). To be fair, since Pokemon Trainer is essentially 3, this would put Pokemon at having 8 reps (Plusle & Minun don't seem to be transform-types, due to sharing one .pac file). But I don't think it's wrong for them to have one more than Zelda and 2 less than Mario as a whole.
 
Oh whoops, assumed you were just talking about who was cut from Pokemon when you said that.

Yeah, that wouldn't have been as awkward. More than Zelda's fine since as iconic as that series is, it's nowhere near as big sales-wise as Mario or Pokemon.

Yeah. I could see Mario, Pokemon, and Zelda each having 6 reps in SSB4 though, imo. Lucina makes me think a Doc return is possible, and Zelda not getting a newcomer for 2 games in a row would be really damn surprising.
 
Did you just call Squitter dumb

Squitter, the greatest videogame character of all time

EDIT:

Look at him.

Look at him.

Oh god fire won't do.

KILL IT WITH STAND
 
watching the stream for the first time, from the start.

only a few minutes in and it's already really badly run, haha. but that's ok. do they end up pulling it together?

even the sound is out of sync, but that may just be the video player

It gets a LOT better.

Wait till the hype finals.
 
that's good!

7 hrs is intimidating, there's no way I can watch it all. other than the finals, are there any other parts specifically I should check out? i'm planning to just skim atm
 
Squitter's legit my favorite DKC animal buddy and I think it's pretty obvious with his buckteeth and DK-BRAND SNEAKERS he was supposed to be goofy as all get out.

It's not genius character design but I still love him.

Yeah, he's one of my favorite characters from DKC2, as well :-)

My (animal) Buddies.

He was the most pleasing DK trophy in Brawl (especially in a sea of shitty barrel blast characters), look at this cheerful fella, spiders bring terror to so many yet Squitter brings joy and web platforms.
 
So we thought bowser was decent now, turns out he is better than decent, he is pretty great. But will it be enough for him to see significant high tier tourney play after launch? It looks like he can KO at <40% pretty reliably, what do you guys think?
 
You people obviously don't play enough 4 player FFA if you had trouble following those matches. The only time I had trouble was when they cut back to the commentators in the middle of a match. That was weird.

On the the other hand, glad to see some other people realizing how awesome Adeleine would be as a fighter. Man, Kirby 64 was so great, I really need to get Triple Deluxe.

Anyway, I've added my name & FC to the google doc, I'll add everyone later, although in the Smash Direct it was implied that online play will use your NNID and not FC's, but I guess we'll see.

No idea. This is from a build from before mid-April 2014. It's been tweaked as fuck since then, so we have no idea what the balance will be, who the other characters in the game will be, and how everyone will match up with eachother. We'll probably see some characters who are easier to be decent with get more play than others for the first few months, but it'll be a long while before decent tier lists are established, barring some kind of awfully unbalanced characters (coughmetaknightcough).
 
I don't know why anyone was expecting big news at SDCC, they wouldn't announce a new character or something without it being an international deal like it has been every other time we've had a big Smash news dump. And if it WAS going to be a big deal we likely would have had Sakurai telling us to watch on Miiverse.
 
I just hope the other big characters (Donkey Kong, Charizard, Dedede,
Ridley
) are as powerful as Bowser. DK in Project M is fun as hell, would love for him to be that fun in Smash 4.

It's very hard to tell at the moment obviously but I don't think he's going to be that good honestly.

I just think the 4 player FFA format let a lot of bowsers through where normally they'd be taken out pretty early.

I mean, he's going to be higher up than brawl bowser, that much is obvious, but if the bowser that wasn't larry was playing a faster character and actually knew how to play the game at the level that larry was able to, bowser would have lost I'd say. His attacks are just so punishable.

I think DK is going to have a somewhat different playstyle now that he has 3 different meteor attacks couple with the new ground bounce system, so nobody has really taken advantage of that from what I've seen in gameplay, I think he's definitely going to be a fun character at least.

I'd love to see some kind of 'anti-juggles' with him, where he's just constantly ground bouncing the other player.
 
I didn't get to see that stuff. :/

All you missed was trinnen saying he was going to show off some 1v1 combos and then proceed to play the game badly.

And the they said they had a challenge to reach world 3 in lost levels but they only got to world 1-3 in like an hour or something ridiculous.
 
How does Greninja even die here? It looks like Snorlax shoots out a jolt of lightning towards him.

It's the same lightning that sorrounded Bowser during the overpowered dropkick. It's a clear, giant, hitbox. Anyway, it seems that Greninja was teleporting (isn't that one of his moves?) near Snorlax.
