Luigi can't handle yoga. His body is not ready.

 

[fisheyes]

These are different pictures. Has that happened before? Its strange.

Weird...and the wft is glowing...blooming in the first pic.

 

[SuperSah]

And the conspiracy theories begin once again!

Odd as hell though. Especialy the bloom.

<@IntelliHeath> I bet luigi picture tonight/morning
<@IntelliHeath> or wii fit trainer

IntelliHeath, are you from the future or somethin'? lol

 

[Sponge]

Oh god Luigi's face is horrifying.

 

[Azure Dream]

The pictures are different.

Edit: Too slow.

 

[Kjellson]

I dreamed Sakurai revealed Shulk last night.

 

[I'M FINISHED!]

I dreamed Sakurai revealed Shulk last night.

She-Hulk from the Liberators Chronicles?

She is too big.

Sorry, I misspelled. I actually meant Zhulk Stark, the daughter of Eddard Stark.

Post-sex picture.

Wii Fit Trainer destroyed Luigi in bed.

No surprises here.

 

[Boss Doggie]

So I take it Wii Fit watched its master and that strange green man have body exercises.

 

[Entryhazard]

A feather item would be swell. Like, you know, Super Mario World?

Gliding around with Bowser and Samus would be too cool for Sunday school.

Lately I feel they're trying to sweep Super Mario World under the rug most of the times, so I think we won't see my beloved cape in this smash

But I think the introducion of the Super Leaf giving raccoon tails to all the characters is almost guaranteed

Yes, I'm. After old me was so disappointed in SSB4 Wii U and 3DS and I decided to travel back in the time to warn everyone that everyone would be severely disappointed with SSB4 roster.

For everyone's sake, Ridley wouldn't be in the game because Sakurai finally admitted that he's too big for Super Smash Bros 4.

Spoiler

Don't ban me. I was joking. I'm pretty sure that one of two would happens depend on Sakurai.

I hope your Ridley prophecy comes true. I want to see the amount of people who starts tearing up over it.

Sweeping it under the rug by making Super Mario 3D World?

 

[Kjellson]

The Wonderful 101 comes out next Friday. Can we still hope?

 

[spyroflame0487]

So..what exactly is the Wii fit board though? Assist Trophy? An item that Wii fit trainer can spawn, like Sonic's spring?

 

[Shadow Hog]

Something that only appears in that stage, going by what we've seen so far.

 

[RagnarokX]

I'm pretty sure it's a level background piece. Maybe it's like the Wario Ware stage in Brawl, but it makes you have to do exercises instead.

 

[Akey]

In the first pic it shows the reflection of two half circles on the back of the fit board. In the second it show 3 full circles.
1/2 + 1/2 = 1
3
clearly coming out in 2013....i wish

No, no, it's more devious than that.

Clearly, this means Sakurai is in on the development of Half-Life 3. BELIEVE

 

[SenorArdilla]

Is anyone else getting these vibes?

 

[C.Olimar788]

Not only is the screenshot slightly different on the Dojo and on Miiverse, but neither shot has Luigi's reflection in it. How bizarre.

Well, there are two explanations.

1. The Wii Balance Board is obscuring Luigi's reflection, so you simply can't see it from this angle.
2. Due to all his vacuum-related dealings with the occult, Luigi is now a vampire.

Take your pick.

 

[BGBW]

LUIGI IS A VAMPIRE AAAAAARGH!

 

[FleenerW]

Hey GAF, first-time poster but longtime lurker here. I recognize a couple of you -- especially IntelliHeath from early MVC3 threads. Has anyone claimed the White Pikmin sprite as an avatar yet?

Ask your mom.

Spoiler

No but seriously, ask Neorice. He's the guy doing these amazing avatars

 

[BGBW]

I don't think he keeps track of who uses what sprite as an avatar.

 

[Qurupeke]

One of the weirder and creepier screenshots ever.

 

[Roo]

I don't think he keeps track of who uses what sprite as an avatar.

Well, in that case he can ask IntelliHeath since he did that long avatar list.

 

[Berordn]

The white Pikmin wasn't claimed specifically, based on the old list.

Vampire Luigi is just what SSB4 needs!

Haha yeah, I recognize Neorice from dA and I love Frogatto. He really is a pixel deity.

Ah, thanks! I guess it won't hurt to use it unless someone says otherwise.

pretty good interview. It covers a lot of what we have heard.

I think I'm attracted to WFT. She's so... Mysterious.

 

[Green Mamba]

Hm...

The 3DS stages are versions of stages you&#8217;ve seen on handheld devices, and the Wii U stages that appear are going to be based [on those seen on] home consoles.

That reads pretty cut and dry if you ask me.

Not a fan of it.

No Uprising based stage in the Wii U version? Looks pretty certain at this point. Fuck.
More generic Pokemon stages in the Wii U version instead of specific areas? Fuck.
No Pikmin stage in the 3DS version? Fuck.

 

[SuperSah]

Now of course, I want to point out that everything on 3DS is designed for that screen, and that’s where they look the best. It’s unfortunate we can’t show everyone what it looks like on 3DS, rather than screenshots, while they look fine, do not do that justice once you see it on the system. Too bad we can’t show everybody what it looks like on the system."

Makes a good point here. Screenshots for 3DS games never good up-to-par with the on-screen gameplay. I can only imagine how nice it'll look on it.

It's very good article. I will link it in my OP when I get home.

Actually we could get a stage from Kid Icarus with Uprising overhauled graphic. No big deal.

For Pokemon and Pikmin stage, I'm concerned about it. Also I would love to see Gen 5 stage in gorgeous graphic.

 

[IntelliHeath]

sorry, double post.

Pokemon stage would probably be on both consoles.

i can see neit liking this picture more than others

 

[Brainiac 8]

I'm sure we'll get at least one Pokémon Stadium type level again, as Pokémon has been on both handheld and consoles with the Pokémon Coliseum series and Stadium series.

Kid Icarus will probably (I would think) get a stage based off the original game.

 

[RomanceDawn]

Thanks for that interview.

When I read his criteria for new characters it gives me hope for characters like Ridley over things like Dark Samus. His body type, his behavior and attacks in the Metroid series lend themselves to something fairly unique to Smash. I guess his closest comparisons are Bowser and Charizard and more guys like that or a cross between the two would be a welcome and unique addition I think.

Even when it comes to DK characters, I love K Rool but I think Dixie Kong has so much more going for her as far uniqueness goes. She'd probably run around just like Diddy Kong(something Sakurai seemed to be pretty proud of) but the helicopter spin, using her hair like a whip or 5th limb is pretty unique in and of its self. Yes Diddy uses his tail in Smash but no way Dixie's hair would be relegated to the equivalent of Diddy's cartwheel and repeated tail attack. Dixie is all about the hair.

Despite all that I look forward to at least 3 semi clones.

 

[georly]

These are different pictures. Has that happened before? Its strange.

Weird. they are different on miiverse and smash page.


AHA i figured it out, her feet are clipping in the one, but not the other. Wonder if they caught the mistake before posting to miiverse and recreated the photo.
