This twitter user is posting about the demo.

Select screen:



Only highlighted characters are playable (Mario, Link, Pikachu, Villager, Mega Man).

Yeah, I'd be okay with this. Link has always been my main, and I'm curious how they've changed him, and of all the newcomers I'm most interested in Mega Man and to a lesser extent Villager.

I'm not really interested in any of those characters but I'd still play the poo poo out of a demo just to get a feel for the game itself.

It looks really clean, but it's hard to tell much of anything from the scattered screenshots. It's a good sign that people say it feels good, because this is, I think, the first time anyone's played the final build.

By which they mean "infinite plays as long as you leave your 3DS in sleep mode."

I dunno why they bother with the play limit thing and then put it at such a high number. In the activity log thing on 3DS it shows you how many times you've booted up each game and the only ones on mine with more than like 15-20 are stuff like Animal Crossing/Pokemon/Mario Kart. The idea that someone would play a demo 30 times is weird

Link looks really, really similar to how he played before to me, but it could be a combination of the fact that it's hard to tell from a video, the person playing him doesn't seem very good, and like I, a bad player, would really know anyway! I mean, his moves are obviously the same, I just don't know how that changes in terms of this game's physics.

Link just slashed a Bombchu making it explode but he wasn't close enough to the explosion to be hurt by it. I don't remember that being possible before. Looks like his sword isn't a hurt box.

On the one hand, the fact that it only has five characters and one stage is kinda sad.

On the other hand, it's still a loving demo with actual loving gameplay and I want it oh my god.

I can't believe Nintendo actually released a demo of a big game before release.

I can only imagine the rage if NOA doesn't announce a demo on the Treehouse steam.

It was never a hurt box. In Melee (and more rarely in Brawl) I abused the hell out of that paired with Link's bombs to gently caress with people.

Both Links' shields have always had a bit of projectile armor to them, you could stop some attacks with them if you were in neutral state.

Shows how my memory is then. I never played as Link much except those amazing "bombs only" matches with friends. Man, I miss those.

Villager literally buries people with his shovel. That is the best.

I used to play the poo poo out of Link in Melee. The slowed him down in Brawl, and I could never quite get the hang of him the way I used to. He looks so drat good in Smash 4, though.

I'm going to spend the next week refreshing the eShop and weeping, aren't I?

Do you think they'll patch in Circle Pad Pro support for pseudo C-sticks or will we simply have a stickless Smash this time? The C-stick is kind of weird in that smoe people swear by it but others rarely use it and you can do just fine without it but it makes some specific tricks like Thunderstorming easier. Just holding the 3DS it feels like the buttons will be responsive and easy to slip from a jump to an attack input for low-hop stuff and the lower-seated analog stick feels like it'll make tilts easier to pull off, since I'll often get excited and do a smash instead of a tilt on a Gamecube controller.

Sorry for the serious post, I'm thinking about controls right now.

Supposedly it will support the C-Stick on New Super 3DS Bros. XL while they outright said it wouldn't support the CPP, but I wonder if the reason it'll work on the New 3DS is because there's going to be a patch when it launches.

EDIT: I watched this guy play Hyrule Warriors when it launched in Japan, Derpanite's the English guy.
