You'd figure it'd be a pretty short hunt...he's pretty hard to miss.

I still expect some DLC....I WANT TO BELIEVE DAMNIT!
??? I don't get it?

They're not going to take back their word on both versions sharing rosters. No way that's happening.
Which i find annoying, why should WiiU users potentially lose a character because of the 3DS.
Yeah it's a nice addition. I think Link is going to be a really fun character to Smash Run with. And if custom moves allow him to be faster in any way he might become one of my mains.

Michelangelo painted the Sistine Chapel. Yabuki turned off voice chat in Mario Kart races. True artists of their time.
Yes it's great

This thread is moving so slowly, I guess everyone is busy playing the demo.

Yeah, unless character DLC is going to be the most obscure character imaginable, I don't think it means much beyond those characters obviously not being hidden away anywhere on the 3DS version.

changed my demo impressions to the other thread since the discussion over there seems more focused on that
love this game so much <3

Sakurai is merciless.
Only makes me laugh harder at the fact Ridley has remained so elusive.

After playing several hours with Mega Man, WHILE HE'S VERY FUN I do think he should be rebalanced out of the five that are in the demo. Seems way too situational even for Smash and has very little he can react to in close-quarters if anything. Hell I can see why a few people want that up B glitch left in since it doesn't feel like MM has much else over other characters so far.

So I took a quick look at my Pokedex 3D Pro, and I noticed that Mewtwo's trophy model is exactly the same as the model in that game. So, yeah, doesn't really mean anything, I think. Granted, I don't see how you can really improve on that model, but still.

I hope my haphazard translation will suffice.
Mewtwo
"A Pokemon made by engineering the DNA of legendary Pokemon Mew to max out its combat capabilities. Without Mews kind and peaceful heart, it uses its high IQ only to defeat its enemies. But is that really true? Is a suffering greater than the humans who made it etched into Mewtwos face ?"
Chorus Men / Chorus Kids
"No game has as many mysteriously charming characters as Rhythm Heaven. For example, the Descendant of Ninja, Mr Upbeat and Bad Guy (from Descendant of Ninja) Are they twisted around <???> or just the way they are. And others like the little villagers from Power Calligraphy, Mr Love from Confession Machine, and Toran and Porin. They are just cute, thats all we can say. Amidst all of them, this time, behold the Chorus Men."
...is there an image with text of the Ice Climbers trophy anywhere?
While I agree MM is not great and is definitely weak at close range, I think his up B and down B are going to be his best close range damage and close range escape moves. So far they are pretty effective in the demo.
Edit: I think I got the buttons wrong, but I mean his spin and slide moves.

Megaman's dash attack is pretty effective too from what I've used of it. Seems like it might be smart to use it to put distance between you and the enemy, rather than using it to charge in like most dash attacks.
I'm having a hard time not interpreting that as a taunt from Sakurai.

If Ice Climbers' trophy description doesn't say something like, "Unfortunately they won't be joining the battle this time around!," I still think they have a chance.

Ice Climbers and Snake strike me as character cuts who if hardware and copyright issues respectively didn't prevent it, they'd have definitely been in.
Everybody else cut was probably just lower priority than who got in and hence still stands a solid chance as DLC.
yeah, definitely. also, his up air is different, with a boost as well

I love link's changes, too. His dash attack is a jump attack from ocarina of time, and it's a kill move now, too! Super powerful just like in that game. Also his backwards roll is a backflip like ocarina, too, and I think it's considerably faster.
If it's only the characters that interest you then very likely. However, if like me you find stages and other trinkets just, it not more, interesting, then there is still stuff to get excited about.
Ashley's Theme? That's surprising. Wonder if that means we get the English version.
I would have liked Mike's English song
What a handsome devil.

It is quite unfortunate that certain fan favorites could not make the roster for the 3DS version but technical limitations and time constraints were probably the cause of that. With that said, the Wii U version shares none of these limitations and those characters will probably be exclusive to the platform as incentive to further differentiate it from the 3DS version.

The demo is absolutely incredible. Unfortunately it is also torture having such a limited amount of content for an entire 3 weeks. Played ~3+ hours of local play with a buddy that I hooked up with a code tonight. In a perfect world the demo would have Wi-Fi so I could play my friend from my hometown
Played the demo with a friend for 4 straight hours tonight. Cannot wait for the full release.
But GameBoy Dreamland stage is literally the stage for Kirby in a version that allegedly focuses on handheld entries.
Well, for me, it was one of the few things I wanted so I'm happy. Sakurai gave us this series so I think it's only fair he can show some love to his first game.

New 3DS exclusive.
I'd be more disappointed if their trophy was 3DS exclusive. I would have want to see their collars be extra fluffy thanks to the Wii U so they are closer to what the Brawl render teased.
Should have wished for more obscure characters then. Now my oddball choices like Bag have a higher chance than Mewtwo.
In b4 a trophy of bag
I believe the logic is that playable characters unlock a trophy of themselves via the single player modes like Classic and All-Star. So if a character already has a trophy and then became a playable character, they'd have an additional trophy that the original roster doesn't have. There are exceptions to this rule like Assault Fox from Brawl.
So say if Chorus Kids were a 3D model as a fighter, their 2D trophy would be the equivalent of the Assault Trophy. Though the counter argument to this would be Melee's Ice Climber trophy
As this showed them in their original form. Of course Melee's first trophy was often a lower quality model, with their other two (Adventure and All-Star) being reflective of their Melee models. 3DS Smash doesn't continue this tradition and Classic gives a trophy reflective of their character selection screen render. So a 3D Chorus Kids render would give a 3D trophy.

It just seems really dull to me how it works, just soft-transitioning to different select parts of the original game. The Mute City and Balloon Fight retro stages in this game or the previous 'Mushroom Kingdoms' or 75m stages had a similar 'directly ripped from the game' aesthetic but felt way more reflective of their actual games via layouts and gimmicks.
For portable-only titles there's a ton of stuff from Amazing Mirror, Squeak Squad, Canvas Curse or if it wasn't released so recently Triple Deluxe that would stand out better. Even Dreamland 2 with the animal buddies sticks out a bit better to me, just since nearly everything in the original Dreamland wound up being recycled/remixed in every other Kirby game so it's not overly nostalgic to run through it in Smash.
Really hoping Return or Epic Yarn are the stage rep for the Wii U version and that Gameboy stage isn't meant to represent the new level Kirby's going to get for all of SSB4.
