I doubt the game will have Download Play.

I mean, the demo has only data if 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


Really? lol

Yeah, no download play according to the back of the download code box in japan.

The demo is for people who don't own smash :p They can play w/ each other using 5 characters for 2 minutes on battlefield. Probably what download play would have been anyway.

I'm pretty sure no download play was confirmed a long time ago.

Kinda wish I could stream considering the demand for it. It's a shame people can't see me play, kind of like if Leonardo DaVinci just put the Mona Lisa in his closet after finishing it.

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.

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

...let the hype commence for this Friday because I believe in miracles!

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!
I'm worried he's going to turn out kind of like Zelda. Zelda has like three or four really good moves (not counting Down+B, lol) but the rest of her moveset is trash so you're going to find yourself relying on the same things over and over. There's only so many times you can use short hop Flame Sword before it gets super predictable.

no

that's largely why it's looking so unlikely at this point. sigh.

I thought we had menu text about a multiplayer mode saying how you could "play with people who have copies of the game" or something like that, implying there might be an alternative? Or maybe I'm reading way too much into it.

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.

Happy birthday Ash

Loved waking up to open my Japanese LL out of sleep mode and see Smash, haha.

I'll put up more videos in a little bit.

Hopefully some of us can play WiFi on Friday! I'm not great, but a fun time is a fun time!

Happy Birthday Ash!

And If I recall correctly, Brawl broke street date the day before release so if Smash 4 is going to break street date at all, and I'd be shocked if it didn't, then we should be getting details in the next couple hours.

It'd be amazing if somehow Nintendo kept Smash from hitting the streets before release, yet couldn't prevent the massive ESRB leaks a couple weeks ago. Difference between Nintendo of Japan and Nintendo of America I guess?

Yeah I don't think megaman is looking too good.

Crash bomb shouldn't transfer to other players, yeah it's fun or whatever in free for all but it's stupid in 1v1.

Leaf Shield should let you use other moves and stay up until you press downB again.


I don't think the endlag on his dair should be as massive as it is either.

Yeah, it normally wouldn't be a problem... except stale move negation tries to encourage you to use all of your moves... but if they suck, that's not really an option. :/ Stale moves ends up hurting those characters more than anyone.

I went to sleep just before it came up lol

These people seriously don't sleep. They're not human!

East coast, went to bed at 1:45 Am after playing the demo, woke up at 6 Am to go to work. So yeah, we don't sleep.

One would be an external leak and one would be an internal leak.
 

Watch Da Birdie

I buy cakes for myself on my birthday it's not weird lots of people do it I bet
Maybe whoever has the early copy, already has the game, but is waiting to unlock everyone before posting a picture?

Also, Star Men from Mother are confirmed for Smash Run? That's neat, since it shows Sakurai is willing to use characters without 3D models already like the Devil Car as well. Wonder if anything from like WarioWare will be used.

I saw this yesterday, but where is it from?

damn new thread and not even release day yet... hype is real

after watching some streams, and mostly zero's, I feel happy that Link seems actually useful in this game, being a Link mainer since 64, this is like a dream come true, Link for high tier hurhurhur :'D
 
The eShop updates tomorrow afternoon for EU/US (local time) so if it isn't released tomorrow, maybe next Thursday with an announcement on the stream.

Just saw some amazing FFA matches from the demo, 4 players with items.

Link smashed everyone's ass and Villager had a screen KO with a big THUD on the screen.

Made me smile. :3

If that person exists, what the fuck is wrong with them.

Just let us know, o chosen one. Please.
Yeah, if someone has the game and is willing to share, they probably would do it first thing, for the attention/hype.

But I could imagine someone being afraid to post things for fear of Nintendo taking some kind of action (against them or more likely the store they got the game from).
 

Masked Man

I said wow
I just realized Smash Run is called Field Smash in Japanese.

Yeah, I had to delete my first tweet to Sakurai because I realized I was using the EN name instead of the JP one, lol.

I need Mother 3 enemies in three dimensions! I can definitely see Ultimate Chimera making a comeback. Maybe Mecha Drago will appear, too!?

If I got it early, I'd be real classy about it.

Or at least I wouldn't go "got it at X store everybody" and plaster the name of the place all over social media.

I'd give the people what they want,
