I buy cakes for myself on my birthday it's not weird lots of people do it I bet
You know, I take it back, YOSHI is still the worst treated multi-game series.

Although I can't blame Sakurai...it's not like Nintendo has really done much with him besides basically rehashing the Yoshi Island aesthetic.

But still, why no Pak E. Derm AT? No Poochie color for DHD?

Is it possible that master hand and crazy hand represent Sakurai's pain and frustrations?

We saw some weird things going on with master hand.New attacks and animations look very questionable.

It just means that we'll need a SSB4 artbook instead, with a detailed breakdown of the development process, the rationale that went into certain decisions, and a glossy 15-page spread of Lucas crying.

A post mortem for a Smash Bros. game would be amazing, assuming it went through most of the decision making that led to the roster, the modes, items, designs, and discarded content.

They won't ever do a full break down like that though, because stuff that just misses the cut is probably considered for the next game most of the time.

Why can't I just be Sakurai? :(

Prepare your bodies for Black Shadow and Kumatora and John Raimi and Krystal and Knuckles and

At least he got some nice stages.

And Nintendo seems to be trying to do more with it. It's getting two games between this year and next.

Why not count Miis? They take the same amount of resources and development time as any other character.

How do you not count Miis as new characters?

Miis are actually 3 new characters, so it fits the trend perfectly.

I can't play them online with anyone, so to me I am only counting 48 characters as canon.

Seriously, so much effort and I can't even play them is just dumb. I'm not really going to care about SP after a week or so.

This fact alone makes mii fighter the biggest waste to me.

Seriously. Cut off the extra fluff and that could've been two more characters. >_>

Don't get me wrong, all the customizations are neat, but if you can't play online with anyone theres no point. Its the same with custom moves. So much dev time wasted.

Wario's new side smash is at least partially inspired by his giant fist punch in Super Mario 64 DS:

I guess it's not too surprising Sakurai is using that game as reference -- Wario's butt scratch idle animation and giant swing throw first appeared in SM64DS, too.

Anybody know where I can find some Yoshi footage? They gave him an upright stance like Bowser and I'm curious to see how much they changed his moveset.

uhhhh

local multiplayer? You know... how a majority of people play the game? Also they will be enabled in friend online matches... unless you're going to say you also have no friends online either.

Man, what I'd give to be a fly on the wall in the dev team office, just to hear the rationale for some of the changes they make. Wario's new f-smash is fine, but what was wrong with the shoulder charge? It's his most iconic move - why axe it?

I'M FINISHED!

Um exCUSE me Sakurai but CLEARLY the best choice for Smash Bros would be my fav niche character HOWEVER you are clearly INCOMPETENT and

I'm surprised. That change is completely unnecessary. Sakurai didn't even bother giving Ganondorf a goddam new move.

Isn't his forward tilt already a giant punch though?

Just tweak Ness' final smash to not be avoidable by literally just standing in one spot, and I'll be fine with it.
Click to expand...

Eh, that would be nice, but I'd rather see his Final Smash be something he actually knows canonically... like, PK Rockin' Omega!

I'm not one of those people that thinks every move in Ness's arsenal must be something he canonically knows, but for his Final Smash at least, it'd be nice.

I would be 100% fine with that being its name.

Wario has a new Final Smash?!
Click to expand...

He means forward smash. No one seems to know what Wario's 3DS / Wii U Final Smash is yet. Same with Ness and Mr. Game & Watch.
