So, if I'm clear, the midnight release for Smash is in 25 hours? 8:00 AM PST/11:00 AM EST tomorrow?
Meaning we are almost only 24 hours from launch and we STILL DON'T HAVE OUR LEAK?

I know it works, but they're still 30fps videos at double speed!

Happy birthday Ash!!
Aww, thanks ya'll! <3
Thank you, I appreciate that! I can think of a couple of people who might disagree with you about that, though.
I saw in your next post after this that you meant his Metal Blade is useless. Yeah, Mega Man's specials are easily the weakest part of his game. Only Crash Bomber (side B) has any real utility; Metal Blade comes out and flies too slowly to be useful, and it doesn't seem like anyone (myself) included has been able to find a use for Leaf Shield yet. I'm really hoping his alt specials are considerably better and stronger and give him more options! I'm especially interested to see how Plant Barrier and the third down special will differ from (and hopefully improve upon) Leaf Shield.
And thanks!
He definitely does, I can confirm that. He's fun to use and feels great, though!
I have no idea where that claim came from or how it started, but I can tell you definitively right here that we never said that and definitely don't know that to be the case.
Saturday release, so it didn't need to ship to stores yet. Sounds like stores are getting it thur, though, so I'd expect in 8-ish hours.
Oh yeah, totally forgot that custom specials might fix broken-bad characters! Very exciting. Also, happy birthday.

I guess they're stuck with the default button layout, though, so that explains the horrible playing. I'd have a tough time with a new controller too.

Happy Birthday, Ash!
Oh yeah, that stupid air dodge. I always forget about that. That should really leave you helpless until you're on the ground. Maybe someday. :\
It was started in twitch chat. I'm sure you know well enough what that means but in case you don't: someone decided to troll the chat and then people started to believe it without actually looking into it.
Yes, 25 hours to go.
Even if a leak happen, only a day in advance is not that much

Happy birthday, Ash! Hope you enjoy playing that Super Smash Bros for 3DS.
I might as well say it too. Happy birthday!
I hope Nintendo gives you (and all of us) a birthday present today.

No, it's a saturday release. Midnight friday night in japan, so we still have 49 hours to go.

I really don't think Mega Man is broken or bad at this point - his specials are just one part of his game and really the only glaringly weak part - but yeah, his specials could definitely use a buff to make him more well-rounded and able to handle various situations. You should check him out on some demo streams if you haven't yet, though - there were some people already pulling off some sick combos and other tricks with him last night! Lots of short hopping and abusing his normal Mega Buster shots and fantastic aerials seem to be key factors in doing well with him.
And thanks!
A stealth demo release leaves me to hope that Nintendo of NA/EU will follow suit. I mean, this is like dropping chum in the water.
What worries me, about this hope, is that it might not happen.
This Friday's Nintendo Treehouse event is the perfect venue for such a surprise, but I'm not confident it'll happen.
Perhaps if they officially announce the Smash XL for NA, the demo will be released alongside it, on the 19th.
Anyhow, hype is real. Game's coming in a little over 3 weeks. Praise be Sakurai.

Playing against the CPUs and Link tries to come back to the stage as I'm watering the Villager's tree. Tree grows beneath Link and does massive up smash knock back, killing him.
Tree game with Villager is gonna be tight. You don't even need to cut it to kill.

Thanks guys!
Thanks! And that would be nice, but I don't have a Japanese 3DS (Andre has GX's only one). No Smash 3DS demo for me yet!
I figured it was something like that. Blargh.
Thanks! It won't be as busy for me as it will be for Andre, honestly; he's the only one of us with a Japanese 3DS, so the vast majority/all of the work covering and getting footage from the game is going to fall on him. I am going to try and drive up the coast next week to get some of my own playtime in and help him out, though, so hopefully that works out!
Masked Man
I said wow
D'awww! I'm flattered. :3
Likewise! It's gonna be a blast.
Ahhh I KNOW. So good! <3
Does he have hit stun on his normal buster shots (do they work more like Fox lasers or Falco lasers)?
If so it seems like the mobility on that would be nice.
It seemed really ineffective when I tried it in the old E3 demo, but that was chaos anyway.
I love how big his forward and back aerials are though. The dair seems strong too. I do hope that some of his custom specials are better though.
I can barely resist listening. Hopefully, the EU demo hurries up so I can hear it in the right context.

Nintendo Ninjas. They're dangerous. They steal all your clothes if you're not careful.

You know, I can't actually remember for sure. I think his normal shots do have a bit of hit stun, though.
And yeah, I can't overstate enough just how great his aerials are. His best one might be Air Shooter (his up air), though - it can lift and juggle opponents like crazy and very easily KO off the top of the screen!
Thanks!

Around 3 weeks before release in Europe (Late March) and America (Late January).
Well when GTA 5 was leaked early, Microsoft banned them from Xbox Live. But that is if your stupid enough to show your gamertag in a video.
Yeah. That's a bummer. Thanks.
Then I say it'd be perfect if they announce it at the end of the Friday treehouse stream.
3 weeks is close enough

January 17 was the demo's release in NA, while the game itself released in February 4th. So around two weeks. For Europe it was actually 3 weeks before release.
I don't really know but I can imagine it being a real hassle if you have the eyes of a huge game company on you after leaking their next huge release.
Not only that, but the pressure you have on you from the Smash community must be a pain.
But hey, what do I know.
Sorry, didn't mean to imply that he is. I guess it totally reads like that. I just meant that if a character *IS* broken bad, then maybe custom moves can fix them.
Mega man is definitely not broken-bad, he's just in the tier of characters who has 1-3 useless special moves. His aerials are phenomenal. I played the demo for 3 hours last night, a good 40% of my time was with mega man. Love his running shot, his charge shot, and his aerials.

Just edited it. It was actually closer to 3 weeks for both regions.
US Demo: 17th January
US Release: 4th February
EU Demo: 28th March
EU Release: 19th April
I doubt the game will have Download Play.
I mean, the demo has only data for 4 characters, 1 stage, a few music and items/AT. And it is around 100mb
Unless its very limited, it will be impossible for the limited RAM of a 3DS
