Haha, it shows. "Bowser...... Jr.??" What a great announcer call.

My favorite is Luigi. It sounds so funky and sexual.

I'd say this guy has more of a chance than Agnes and Metal Face combined.
If either of those two becomes a playable character on the roster, I will wear this avatar for a year.
Brawl's announcer almost seemed confused when you chose Luigi. I guess it fits his "dorky" personality.

I'm hoping that against the odds one of them will be in, so you can continue to spread awareness of Doshin the Giant.
What we really need in Smash though is more Cubivore references. Maybe an item or stage from Odama, too.

The best oddball choices for Smash are clearly the Elite Beat Agents/Ouendan.
Kyle Hyde is an acceptable alternative, however.

Imagine a Hotel Dusk stage, similar to how the Tomodachi Life stage is like on the 3DS. That would be so neat!

Cubivore and Doshin representation would be great. I wonder how long it will take until Sakurai runs out of "forgotten" NES characters to reboot, and he moves on to SNES and N64 characters. Several decades, perhaps?
And yet he'll still look exactly the same.
I might just make it my avatar after October. I want to keep a
We need a Hotel Mario stage first.

A Kyle Hyde assist trophy alone would make giddier than any possible not-Rhythm Heaven newcomer.

only if it has dunning as a stage boss
I can agree with this. As charming as Rhythm Heaven is, it can't compete with EBA/Ouendan. And anything that could lead to the slightest possibility of a Hotel Dusk / Last Window continuation would be appreciated.

The potential of a Doshin avatar is completely wasted if it doesn't showcase his firefighting ability.

I can get behind this completely. Kyle Hyde or Hotel Dusk or anything from that game would be most welcome. I loved his trophy in Brawl.

Poor Pac Man.

Another character more likely than Metal Face.
If anyone has an image of it, I would totally use it.
It would make an amazing special, he really should be a character.

oh man it took me a sec to get that one, lol
EBA/Ouendan toooooootally should've at least been an AT in Brawl though, and then they might've had at least some chance to show up in Smash 4 instead of not even getting a trophy. They're, like, perfect assist material!
goodnight, sweet soldiers of music

Bookmarking this post. There is a very slight chance Metal Face won't get in, but Agnes? You dun goofed. Enjoy your new avatar.I'd say this guy has more of a chance than Agnes and Metal Face combined.

I've been grinning from ear to ear reading all of these messages hahahaha my but you're devoted! I've yet to finish Xenoblade (about one third, maybe halfway through as we speak?) so I couldn't read the spoilers in your private message, but I assume they're related to him secretly being someone else in the cast. If so I of course will agree to your victory if that other identity makes it playable. Fun times ahead!

That spoiler tag is not Xenoblade related at all. We're all just... nodding.

You bet 200 coins for Metal Face, do you want to bet with me for Agnes?
Game worth 200 coins for me if Agnes isn't in, game worth 200 coins for you if she is.
Ah, I meant part of a PM she later sent me!

When you summon their assist trophy, it's not them that'll pop out of it, but rather a cry of HEEEAAALP! (text and all)
And then...
Smash is a lesser game without them.

I'd kill for every PC to have their own HEEEAAAALP screen, complete with deranged drawing and hilarious scream.

will you post 40 times in a row here like in the Mario Kart 8 OT?

Alrighty then. Can't wait to I get my free game.
And if I lose a game well...it doesn't really matter since most of the stuff is stuff I own or stuff I don't care about anymore. It took Kerploosh to be something I don't own.
This is the part where you nod.
No will not bet 200 coins for Agnes.
Will bet a 200 coin game for either Ridley or any Castlevania character. (If any Castlevania character gets in, I win. Deadline for an announcement will be 12/31/15)
Also can someone please ask the voice guy to do in these exact words: The Witch from The Witch's House
Please? You all owe me. I do always get my predictions right. I am basically a prophet.

We need a Nintendo All Star edition of the Elite Beat Agents where we play with Nintendo music.
There's Osu! I guess.
The Bankslammer

so something like this (can't find original artist, unfortunately)
i don't know what issun is doing there either
i'd love if nintendo were to take this direction with a nintendo-themed rhythm game, but they seem content to simply occassionaly sprinkle nintendo music into band bros, taiko, donkey konga, harmoknight and the like

Surprised at all the people still claiming the 3DS version is "gimped" and that they're going to sell theirs once the Wii U version is out. The 3DS version is great (not perfect) and in many ways a technical marvel, and while the Wii U version is obviously the "core" version, I will be very happy to continue having Smash 3DS on hand whenever I want to play Smash on the go or away from home.
Sad but true.
Yes. Yes we did.
Agreed. I'd love to play as OVER-1 (or any of the OVER models) in a better, legit game.
Well said. I really took to the Battle Network universe for exactly that reason. It was a surprisingly well-thought out "What if?" scenario, and it was fun (as a fan) seeing how familiar characters would have acted in a situation where the world embraced Internet technology over robotics. The games always felt like playable Saturday morning cartoons, except a fair bit darker and more complex (in a good way).
Yes, this is accurate. The timeline goes Classic -> X -> Zero -> ZX --------> Legends. Legends takes place some five millennia after the ZX series, but the Zero and ZX series do plant certain seeds if you're really paying attention. Mega Man has more legitimate lore than most people realize.
I can't believe this is even a discussion. There is absolutely no way Metal Face is ever going to be playable in Smash 3DS/WiiU (or probably any Smash game). I honestly can't ever tell if WiiRevolution is ever being serious or if he just wants to watch SmashGAF burn...
I think this is very unlikely. The event is being billed as highlighting "50 new things in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U," and while they may fudge a few of those, there's no way the majority of those things won't be new to the Wii U version. Nintendo knows it needs to be proactive in showing consumers why they need the WiI U version when they already own the 3DS one, so I don't think they'll squander this chance to show everyone exactly what the Wii U version offers over and above the 3DS version.
This is all very interesting and exciting. Just to be clear, though, what exactly is the conclusion drawn here? That there is evidence pointing toward (a) a DLC shop accessible from the main menu á la Mario Kart 8 and (b) at least one character being unlocked via Wii U/3DS connectivity? Or am I misunderstood?

Actually what happened to DDR period?
Once the Wii U version is out, my time will be split 85% Wii U / 15% 3DS. I'll have already done everything there is to do in the 3DS version by then (just need 3 more challenges!!), so it'll only be used for local multiplayer battles at my university or the occasional For Glory matches during my lunch break at work.

He probably explain it much better than I would have.

being able to dance off against waluigi, wario and bowser but only able to play as mario and luigi was a real tease
as far as the series itself, uh, it's still goin'. i don't think any of the recent arcade releases have hit western shores, but there was a new version just last year. konami's pretty much totally given up on home releases of bemani games, with their last efforts being some recent kinect-based spinoffs. oh and of course there's some mobile shit too
smash bros btw
I just got back 3 hours ago.

As someone who was really active in the SoCal DDR competitive community back at its height, I can answer this question: Konami failed to support the series with a new entry for so long (the several-year gap between DDR EXTREME and DDR SuperNOVA) that it just sort of petered out.
DDR did see a sort of minor resurgence in the west once Konami finally started releasing the "modern wave" of DDR arcade mixes (SuperNOVA, SuperNOVA 2, X, X2, X3 vs. 2ndMIX, DDR 2013), but these machines are more expensive for arcades to purchase and, thus, much harder to find than the older machines/mixes. There are still certain places for enthusiasts to play the latest mixes in SoCal, but they're pretty hard to find elsewhere in the US.
DDR is still perfectly alive and kicking in Japan, though. When I was there in February, every single arcade in Akihabara had the latest version (DDR 2013), and I almost always had to "quarter up" and wait for my turn like the good ol' days.
As for the home console mixes, Konami simply started seeing worse and worse returns on them as the years wore on. The PS1 mixes and the first few PS2 mixes were huge, but later PS2 mixes didn't do as well. Same goes for other consoles; the Xbox and Xbox 360 mixes did well initially, but support dropped as more and more sequels were churned out. Very few people even remember the lone PS3 mix, it did so badly. That said, the Wii mixes all sold really well, and that line continued pretty much through the Wii's entire lifespan.
Bonus tip: In that long lull between EXTREME and SuperNOVA, a few DDR fans formed a company called Roxor Games and released In The Groove and its sequel In The Groove 2, which were basically pirate versions of DDR that were compatible with existing DDR arcade hardware, which quickly (and rightly, IMO) got them sued by Konami. The games were notoriously buggy and kinda ghetto but did offer some nice advantages at the time, such as harder step charts than you could find in DDR at the time and the ability to upload your own songs and charts via USB and play them on an arcade pad. ItG quickly died after Roxor was sued, though, and the latest DDR mixes have generally adopted harder charts in response to fan feedback, making ItG kind of obsolete these days.
So... that answer all your questions?

I would guess the Wii Sports Resort stage will be the equivalent of Tomodachi Life in the 3DS version. The Mii Channel music fits TOO perfectly for Wuhu Island.

Wow, you're making me miss my old DDR platform (I got rid of it about 2 house-moves ago.) I used to groove to stepmania with all the classics on it and got a whole bunch of my friends hooked on it too. They used to bring around one of their platforms and we'd have dance offs... good times :3
I figured with Dance Central I wouldn't need it any more, though admittedly I've not been stepping to that for a while either
Oh and when I say platforms, I mean the full metal arcade-style ones too, not those dodgy plastic mat things

I hear you. I also used to have one of those Cobalt Flux metal DDR pads to play the home mixes with, and before that, I even Frankensteined my own hard pad by taking one of the official soft pads and fixing it to a wooden board! Once I started playing in the arcades, though, I could never go back to playing at home. It just felt too different... and better (to me). And yeah, I too used to play Stepmania all the time. I still do sometimes, albeit with my fingers and not with a pad hooked up. I also still play the home console mixes (with a controller) sometimes, too.
I really miss the DDR scene back at its height... it was so, so fun. You really had to be there to know how fun, but yeah. Good times.
Anyway, SUPER SMASH BROTHERS FOR WII U AM I RIGHT GUYS?
