I didn't watch the stream but this sounds like a really good way to keep things chill and a good compromise between E-SPORTS and the rest of us. Of course I'm getting the 3ds version only since I don't have a Wii U, so, really, who's really going to care there.

Only thing Chesnaught is good at is getting killed :smug:


At first I was disappointed about transformations being gone since I like to play Zelda/Shiek but this means I can finally play Samus again.

I really liked playing as both Samus and ZSS, though they really needed a way besides breaking your thumb taunting to switch from armored to unarmored, and back again. Especially since the zero laser is suicide to use because of the delay between when you can fight back.

Also wow they keep making the zero suit design worse and worse.

So with the 3ds version, what button's going to relate to the z-button on the gamecube version? Just have the right trigger be for blocking and dodging and the left trigger for grabbing/grappling?

Let's take a moment to acknowledge how effin' pretty the new Final Destination is.


It's a better looking Metroid stage than the actual Metroid stage.

When they showed off the 'Alternate Destinations' I noticed some of them had slanted edges, and some of them had walls. How exactly does that work?

This looks like it fell out of Soul Calibur.

I wonder if they're going to do anything more with Samus/ZSS's final smashes then having the giant laser just not make the armor fall off and just buff the crystal flash to do more damage.

And where the hell is ROB.

I'd love Simon Belmont, but he's pretty unlikely since it seems like they've gone out of their way to get rid of up+B's that involve chains like Olimar's Pikmin chain and I can't think of any other way that they'd do his up+B.

So what's ZSS going to do then? Her Up+B and her grab is a chain, along with Samus's grapple beam. Are they taking out the Links' hookshots too?

Come on, give it up already. Ridley won't be playable.

I've been reading some reactions on ZSS and they're really annoying. A lot of people complain that Samus wouldn't wear a skin-tight bodysuit to fight. No loving poo poo, that's why she wears the Varia Suit.

The best thing Metroid Prime 3 did was to have it so everyone wore a zero suit underneath the armor. Early in the game you walked past a lot of people in different colored form fitting zero suits and they looked just as stupid as Samus did. This doesn't make the design not awful or anything but I thought Retro's way of dealing with it was funny.

I hope I can still toss armor pieces at other people at the start of the game as ZSS at least. That's always good for a free kill!

You can take your characters back and forth between the 3ds and Wii U right? Does the amiibo statues things play into that?

I really wish Smash and that squid game weren't the only interesting games on Wii U right now, I can't justify buying a console for just two things.

Ok I forgot about W101 and Pikmin. I didn't like Wind Waker (I'm the mutant who thinks Twilight Princess is a better game), not a huge fan of Mario Karts after Double Dash, and thought Mario 3d Land on the 3ds wasn't that great. Maybe I'll take a look at the Wii U again later this year.

Who caressssssssss. For all we know he can end up being broken because his moves are really powerful. It's not like they're going to give him am 'ammo count' without making it stronger in compensation.

edit: Nosferatu has got a lot of potential, I wasn't expecting it to heal a percentage of all damage done while the effect is active. I wonder if that applies to damage dealt with items too.

I'm just curious if there's a way to recover charges or if you get some back over time or something or if you have to die to regain the Levin Sword/Elwind.

It goes on far too long. Even fakes the boss being dead then it gets up and you do the exact same thing you've done 3 or 4 times already about 5 more times with absolutely no changes.

I would have found the repeated and unfun the first time boss, the three levels you keep returning to, the shields with HP (which pairs poorly with getting stunlocked by the beamos, having your thousand rupee investment wasted) and being told what everything is repeatedly significantly more tolerable if the controls worked right. I got really good at using every other item but the sword for combat. The bow was a godsend by the end and the one part of the controls that actually consistently worked. Motion controls are poo poo.

Due to hitbox stuff they're probably not going to introduce any of the size changes (smaller or larger) that were options. But don't be surprised if, among this particular medium-size bodytype, they have most of the hairstyle/haircolor combos available as costumes.

I wish there was this way that people could find any information they were searching for without taking the time to ask a question. and then wait for the same group of people to answer it for the ninth or tenth time. It'd be great, you could type something in like "Smash Bros news" and see what kind of results you could get.

Gee, that's actually a really good idea. I'd probably call it a search engine.
