Super Smash Bros. for Wii U Miiverse Update Thread XVI

Status
Not open for further replies.
I could see this working but my stance with rumors is pretty much sticking with 51 characters (as we already knew) and expecting nothing more.

Considering Sakurai didn't completely dismiss DLC when the topic came up a year and a half ago, and seeing what Nintendo is doing with MK8, I'm still leaning towards the idea that there is going to be some stuff staved off until the Wii U release.

Holy shit, pikachu just recovered from the very bottom of the screen (as in, wasn't even visible and was probably a few frames from hitting the blast zone) using only his Up-B after being meteor smashed at around 50%.

Super Recovery Bros. for 3DS/WiiU
 
Ice Climbers and Lucas will rise again my friend. Someone just needs to find the unlock conditions. There's tons of things no one has tried!

Like creating Popo and Nana Mii Fighters then subsequently losing to Master Hand with both characters on 1.9 difficulty with exactly 85 seconds left on the clock!
 
Lol Tiny Cartridge just tweeted this as a joke and some no-namer got upset for some reason and started threatening that he/she would block people because it's apparently obnoxious even though it's obviously fake.

Oh, I knew the video was older. Poor guy; this is why fakers are stupid. Regardless of how I feel about Ridley fans, no one deserves to be trolled like that.
Yeah, it hurts to see people disappointed. It's just another example of why we shouldn't get too emotionally invested in these things. Also why we maybe shouldn't say "I bet someone shops Ridley's shadow in by the end of the night", lol. But it was probably gonna happen one way or another regardless.

"...What?! No way is this roster true! Sakurai fucking failed to deliver again. Maybe there will be DLC? Sigh. I doubt it. Oh well, let's play as Dark Pit. Wow, he's actually great to play as! I'm OK with the roster now."

LOL! This is exactly what I expect... if only because I've done it before in the past lol


EDIT: 307 pages?! This is the fastest growing/moving topic I've ever been a part of in all my forum-posting years.

Sweet Jesus.

Didn't rosalina x say 49 characters and 4 cuts?

It was 48 characters, not 49.

4 cuts = Snake, ICs, Lucas, and Wolf.

Squirtle and Ivysaur aren't counted for whatever reason but I think it's just because, based on Zard's reveal, it was a given they were going to be gone too. (Though, personally, I'd count them as cuts as well because they did feature full unique move sets).

I'm pretty happy with the complete roster and I'm still expecting eventual DLC characters. The game looks so good and the wait until October will be killer :(

Not counting Squirtle and Ivysaur and not counting all three Miis doesn't really seem right. There's no reason to exclude Miis from anything, they're 99% integrated into the game as proper characters.

Can't believe people would think that Bleach guy is in the game!

I really don't think the ESRB leak ruined anything.

The only remaining newcomers that had not been shown were Dark Pit, Bowser Jr, and Duck Hunt Dog.

Dark Pit is a clone, and probably wasn't expected to generate a lot of excitement. That leaves just two new characters that we wouldn't have known about - Bowser Jr and Duck Hunt Dog.

That's really not a lot, and I definitely think many would still be somewhat disappointed had the leak never occurred.

Also did we ever confirm if you could turn tap jump off?

The difference between me being just good at the game and great at it rests almost entirely upon this one thing.
 
To all people wanting to play as Young Link, Mewtwo, Roy, and/or Pichu

Play Melee :v

To all people wanting to play as Squirtle, Ivysaur, Snake, Lucas, Wolf, and Ice Climbers

Play Bra-- I mean Project M :v

To all people wanting to play as Chorus Kids...

And that's why Chorus Kids fans have it worse than any one fan of a veteran :v

Oh, no, I know. I'm not sure why RosalinaX said 48 and didn't count Miis. :/

But really, when I saw that number I was like, "I could see 48 characters happening."
 
Did anyone notice ROB has Virtual Boy colors (not an alt, just colors)?

Between that and Charizard's seismic toss, you have to wonder if someone was paying attention to some of the really creative stuff Project M has done.
 
Actually I called dibs about 2 pages back. Less someone else did earlier.

So did we ever figure out what that alternate route before master hand leads to?

Yeah, you definitely have dibs. I'm not really a fan of other koopa kids so I'll wait for another chance to get a neorice avatar.

A Duck Hunt trailer with no spoilery lead-up (ala the Robin/Lucina trailer) would have been earth-shattering. I would've have completely lost it.
