Who's actually gonna play this alleged 8-man brawl more than 5 times?

I'll play it more than I've played half of the 3ds stages.

Probably me as well, but man is that camera going to zoom out so much during matches.

Judging from the Tortimer Island and Warioware FD, I don't really think this is something Sakurai gets concerned about

Spoiler

sadly.

 

[J@hranimo]

Even after speculation and hype, we will probably get another underwhelming 3DS pic.

They're working hard for us fans though, so it's understandable.

 

[Neiteio]

I have a group of real-life friends that would LOVE to play eight-player Smash. I really, really hope it's a thing.

 

[Roo]

I need my menu pic fix, Sakurai!
I need it!!

 

[Lunchbillion]

I feel like a fool hoping for a Nintendo Direct announcement but god damn I want to know what the surprise is so badly D':

 

[solomon]

I need my menu pic fix, Sakurai!

I am

The prospect of 8 man, 99 stock bob-omb super-sudden-death is irresistible.

I'm pretty sure this is the exact definition of Hell.

 

[random25]

8-man Smash, all using RosaLumas, with Pokeballs and ATs raining, on a small Battlefield stage. All-out riot!

 

[Boss Doggie]

you know what has 8 player smash?

4 ice climbers

 

[KLatin Scelus]

- 8 Players
- Gamer stage
- Rosalina Only

 

[Caladrius]

No one said it would be for the faint of heart

why can't I keep track of all these Lumas

 

[KLatin Scelus]

You know you want it.

It just dawned on me: 8-player smash is the reason everyone has at least 8 alternates...

Forgive me if people already thought of this, but yeah.

We could have Junior and all seven Koopalings in the same battle

SAMURAI PLS

 

[Richie]

You guys were so awesome with the Master Tharja Crazy Tharja comment hahaha, thanks a bunch.

I'm imagining a bunch of old school gamers gathering for this, all of them using the same character every match (all Marios, all Links, etc) then reaching Bowser Jr., and ganging up on the poor guy who couldn't pick a Koopaling

 

[Hazu]

How long before the POTD?

 

[OricWindstar]

Will be even more epic if my dream of an Airship level happen. Considering how many Mario stages we got for the 3DS version, I feel it's very possible and more likely than Bowser's Castle as that's already part of Mushroom Kingdom U.

 

[Kangi]

Where were you when the first octuple Falcon Punch rang throughout the hills?

 

[lolpho]

Zael from The Last Story grabs some Superspicy Curry from Master Hand. "No…! You mustn't let that curry lure you in…!!" In the Wii U version, you can take photos of dream collaborations and funny situations with your trophies in the Photo Studio.

 

[Mariolee]

Trophy mode just got a whole lot more awesome.

If there is any stage I want more than anything, it's an airship stage.

Sure it would be banned, but jumping from battleship to battleship, fleet to fleet, duking it out as you move?

It's my dream stage, and I can see Sonic or Mario having a level like that.
Flying Battery, Egg Fleet, Bowser's Airships from Super Mario Bros. 3

I guess Orbital Gate is close enough, though.

 

[munchie64]

Good to see that's back, I missed it in the 3DS game.

 

[Neiteio]

Ah, they're bringing back that mode where you can pose the trophies for pictures! (I think...)

 

[Nia]

Zael! Good to see The Last Story represented in Smash.

 

[random25]

That looks cool to play around! Glad it's back!

 

[Neiteio]

So the dude's from The Last Story and the girls are from one of the Fatal Frame titles, right?

 

[Roo]

that's no ma menu pic

 

[Boss Doggie]

I know the two girls are from Fatal Frame

but who is that guy

 

[Muzy72]

Is that Zael from The Last Story???

 

[Anth0ny]

holy shit ZAEL



I just finished The Last Story earlier this week. Great game!

 

[random25]

Zael from The Last Story.

 

[Loco4Coco]

Who's that hand though?

 

[Mariolee]

Whoa. Was The Last Story considered first party?

 

[munchie64]

Nice trophy variety. I hope there's a shit tonne in the Wii U game.

 

[OrbitalBeard]

You know, if we're gonna' have Fatal Frame trophies, it'd sure be nice to get a Fatal Frame game in North America.

 

[Zevenberge]

Nintendo remembers The Last Story! That is a megaton on its own.

Who's that hand though?

Right hand, so master hand.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Zael from The Last Story.

Ah interesting.

 

[TheChits]

Hell yeah! Nice games being represented in that screen

Awesome... Awesome!! Now they just need to jam-pack the WiiU version with tons and tons of great trophies. :-D

 

[zroid]

woah, definitely wasn't expecting Last Story stuff in Smash... even as a trophy

 

[Boss Doggie]

is that a bare mid-rift

So Zael could have been in Smash if he didn't fall to that temptation. Such a shame.

 

[Anth0ny]

Zael for Smash 5

 

[Richie]

Photo Studio? This means (and the picture itself is evidence of it) that it's no longer restricted to what you can get away by placing trophies very close to each other, no? Because that's clearly the curry item overimposed on the Master Hand trophy. If so, amazing!

 

[one_kill]

Pretty cool
Hopefully there are more backgrounds and the removal of darkness under skirts

 

[OricWindstar]

Zael for Smash 5

I'd be down for that.
