Hey guys - The hype from the demo made me make another Smash music video. I probably won't make any more big ones like this due to already running out of new clips to use. That said I had fun with it and tried to make it hype building. Enjoy:

I've said it before and I'll say it again: I know Namco did Donkey Konga and are now doing this, but why does DK still have the Bongo Final Smash?

Especially when this has the potential to be the most satisfying Final Smash?

I still think DK got the short of the stick when it comes to representation in...well just about everything this time around :/

Diddy's a tad off model since he doesn't have new jet/backpack. I don't see why they brought back the Bongos for DK, either. I'm hoping they saved one hell of a cool DKCR stage for the Wii U.

 

[KelpPlankton]

If Miis have default movesets, I wonder why preset ones weren't available in the Japanese public demo a few days ago.

The default movesets are probably the ones that you start with, and you have to unlock the rest of the moves via Smash Run or whatever. But that's just a guess.

I imagine there's no 'default' Miis and you have to actually go in and make them yourself, even if you haven't unlocked any moves or clothing yet.

They should have included some default ones based on Reggie, Sakurai, Iwata, etc though. Would have been nice for competitive play, and casual players who don't know these guys would never have to be educated about it. Just an easter egg for Nintendo fans.

 

[Ryce]

The bongos are a pretty big part of DK's history (DK64, Jungle Beat, Donkey Konga 1-3), so I'd rather have them represented over even more punches and kicks.

 

[Mauricio_Magus]

Wait. Is it bad to leave your 3DS in sleep mode for a long time? I had OoT closed on there for a good month lol.

Just keep it charged and you can keep your 3DS in sleep mode forever.

Kyurem is master ball, but that matches up to what i've seen.

Just keep it charged and you can keep your 3DS in sleep mode forever.

Keeping it plugged in at full charge means it uses the power cable as its power source, afaik, so it stops draining your battery.

 

[Scythesurge]

Also I don't remember who said you couldn't earlier, but you definitely can tech the meteor smash ground bounces, which really sucks.

Level 9 CPU's practically do it every time, I can use Mario's Fair on Link whilst he's standing still and he can tech the ground bounce and punish me for successfully hitting him.

Just think about that for a second.


It also happens when they're in the air if you're low enough, damn.

This seems pretty weird, is the tech animation that fast or is the landing lag after Fair so long that it's punishable? Wonder if there are any meteor moves that cancel like some people were talking about, and if they would be punishable in a similar situation.

 

[Galang]

Not following SSB WiiU/3DS news/progress closely, so be nice if this is old.



Source is a -much more readable- PDF.

Thanks for this. I hadn't seen it myself!

Ok so last thread. I don't want to clog up discussion here so if people keep asking just link them back here:
Fire Emblem talk lead to the implication and discussion of possible incest within the game.
This lead to a series of images implicating Robin as a paedophile as he can romance Lucina.
This made us go crazy and someone posted that bloody fetus from PT.
From this someone brought back up that delightful weta (giant, biting bug, native to New Zealand) gif from a few threads ago.
People quoting these lead to them appearing on every page leading to more craziness until mods destroyed many posts (removing the original page 300 and a little more in the process)
In the end though it seems only the fetus and weta discussions disappeared.

I'm simultaneously happy and sad I missed all that.

 

[Starphoenix]

I hope this is Green Hill Zone's alternate track. This song is too good to not return:

[Toxi]

Donkey Kong's final smash should have him start beating the bongos and then transition to a saxophone solo with Frederik's horn.

Fuck yeah. The best Sonic track in Brawl, easily.

I'm hoping for Live and Learn personally.

The second best.

You'll get Sonic Heroes and you'll like it.

Oh man I haven't heard that track in years. Doesn't really match up with the clips but nice none the less.

 

[The Bankslammer]

Any one find/see anything else in the demo?

I've gotten Samurai Goroh a fair deal too, but I think you've covered the rest.

 

[Spinosaurus]

Diddy's a tad off model since he doesn't have new jet/backpack.

I think they're just trying to stick to Diddy's Rare design.

Wish DK had his modern design though. :/

 

[Starphoenix]

Do we know if Boss Rush is returning?

 

[StreetsAhead]

Kyurem is master ball, but that matches up to what i've seen.

Ah, right. Cheers.

I've gotten Samurai Goroh a fair deal too, but I think you've covered the rest.

Ah, thanks. Added it in. I've got him a bunch, too - just forgot.

Isabelle is probably my most frequent AT.

 

[PsychBat!]

*shrugs* I like Sonic Heroes.

 

[Hypemaster]

Nah, Lanky Kong should randomly appear so that we never forget about him and play his trombone.

 

[J-Tier]

UGH hopefully there is no Isaac AT. YUCK.

Spoiler

So that he can be playable DLC.

FTFY

 

[georly]

Same. I love that you automatically eat the fruit, too. I also like that you can pick up recovery items while holding another item. I also don't seem to recall being able to hold items while doing a final smash and then still having the item when the final smash is done in braw, but that's a thing now.

As is dragoon/daybreak spawning at the same time as smash ball.

 

[JoeInky]

This seems pretty weird, is the tech animation that fast or is the landing lag after Fair so long that it's punishable? Wonder if there are any meteor moves that cancel like some people were talking about, and if they would be punishable in a similar situation.

A mixture of the tech being almost instantaneous and the Fair landing lag being long enough to punish.

But ground bounces shouldn't be tech-able at all, I was dead excited for playing around with DK and his 3 meteor attacks with this new ground bounce system to see if he could do any cool combos but this has ruined that idea.

His Fair, Dair and Down Special definitely aren't going to be cancellable and probably have much more landing lag the Mario's Fair so those 3 moves are practically useless unless you use them off stage.

Fucking stupid decision.

I'm crossing my fingers for a new Green Hill Zone remix and Sonic Boom, personally. I definitely wouldn't complain if we got the Angel Island remix, though - it's a great song, and definitely worthy of being Sonic's only Brawl remix.

 

[EloquentM]

I think they're just trying to stick to Diddy's Rare design.

Wish DK had his modern design though. :/

Agreed. His legacy smash design is so creepy

 

[Kensho]

Whoa sheiks got some new b moves. Down + b was a given but I didn't know about the others. Thanks for this.

You should watch the Smash Bros direct man. Been there quite a few months.

I don't see why they brought back the Bongos for DK, either. I'm hoping they saved one hell of a cool DKCR stage for the Wii U.

But I love the Bongoes, they were heavily represented in at least 5 DK games :/ Not everything should be the last game (i don't like almost everything being Metroid Other M...)

Fixed that for you...

 

[shinobi602]

 

[BY2K]

HNNNNNGGGGG

 

[Hypemaster]

Yay. Would be the best time to do so.

 

[Rösti]

Oh banana!

 

[MillionVolts]

DK Bongos are going to be a lot more fun to use this time now that you know exactly when to time the button presses.

 

[georly]

That's a great way to derail smash 3DS hype... unless it's coming out next year.

 

[OricWindstar]

Bring it the fuck on!

 

[Beelzebufo]

Fixed that for you...

Yo, you serious? I love DKCR, but come on.

Also, only the Japanese release will be announced

 

[Mr Swine]

I want smash now

Also happy Bday Ash!

 

[Axass]

I bet it's not the same of the JP release date then, and that the JP date will be announced on the NicoNico stream.

 

[munchie64]

Oh man I haven't heard that track in years. Doesn't really match up with the clips but nice none the less.

Thanks

FTFY

Aw shit. I was legitimately not wanting to do it since I knew I'd fuck up, but so many were asking lol

 

[kuroneko0509]

HYPEEEEE

 

[Fireblend]

That's cool, but it's not the announcement I want to hear about right now.

 

[Durden77]

First a random ass demo, then a Wii U release date right before the 3DS release.

Nintendo what do you do.

 

[Neoxon]

 

[KelpPlankton]

That's a great way to derail smash 3DS hype... unless it's coming out next year.

I don't think announcing a release date is going to derail people's hype for the version that's hitting first with a much larger userbase.

3DS version is going to sell tons no matter what they do. Wii U version needs to ride the 3DS version's momentum.

 

[Jawmuncher]

WiiU release date with a 3DS demo the same day would be amazing.

 

[munchie64]

Easy enough to do. Nico Nico stream may do it for Japan.

 

[PsychBat!]

I AM GROOOOOOOOT!!!!!

 

[ffdgh]

That's nice. Where's my demo?
