It's much easier to have Hair as an Object attached to a point (back of head) and then just apply preset animations to it. The character model is just a bunch of hitboxes with aesthetically pleasing graphics over top. It would be very intensive to have hair actually interact with bodies.

Case in point, the new Tomb Raider has a special graphic setting on PC that goes above Ultra Quality and the only difference is a special hair renderer to make Lara's hair actually be affected by wind and collision. I have a pretty great computer capable of running highest settings on a lot of games but that setting just tanked my framerate when I tried turning it on. It's incredibly intensive to do hair collision, though I guess you could argue they really didn't need to animated every individual strand of hair in Tomb Raider's case.

I loved how the Camera was always available in Brawl and I hope that it returns in an even more robust way for Smash 4.

Why the heck hasn't there been an HD remake of Metroid Prime? I bet if Nintendo ported the Prime Trilogy to the Wii U they would make a killing.

I know I would definitely pay for an HD remake of Prime because it is my favorite game of all time but I think I'd rather see Retro do a new Metroid game entirely at this point instead of another, albeit very pretty, version of Prime (Trilogy).

I would not have predicted Ike come back. My reaction right now was just a quiet "whaaaat" out loud.

The outline is going over Marth's head, unless that's supposed to be the transparent "hovering over the character" image of him, in which case I ask where the pointer hand is on the P1 token.

Not to mention that if I'm counting right there are about 54 slots for characters there.

I remember buying the Brawl players guide when it came out not because I needed it, but because I just felt like I wanted it. I loved the NP players guides as a kid and used to read them a ton for games like DKC and Banjo-Kazooie.

Sometimes you just want a big book of video games.

What I noticed is that the blue color scheme is the same as the one from Fusion's endings:



So it's kind of like having two alt costumes.

I'll probably stop reading this thread and let my friends know I'm attempting to avoid spoilers and leave it at that. if I get spoiled oh well I tried.

Alternatively, I could use some time offline.

I really like how Sakurai doesn't ever stick with one composer for a game and always just gets, like, all of them.

Every Japanese video game composer GET IN HERE

I would imagine it must be a lot of fun for some composers to get a chance to make remixes of classic Nintendo songs they might have grown up with themselves or heard while doing music for other companies. I know I would feel that way were I a composer. Nintendo music is generally pretty iconic, so to get the chance at putting your own take on a song must feel great.

Probably why there are so many internet remixes of Nintendo songs out there.

Funny enough, Wario Land 4 and Metroid Fusion/Zero Mission all run on the same engine. The debug rooms for both have Wario Land 4 graphics in it:

Is the 3DS really that bad in terms of power? Everyone keeps saying Ice Climbers would make it crash with 8 AIs running around but I've always felt like the 3DS was about on par with a Gamecube and Melee handled the ICs just fine. Of course I have no technical specs to compare but visually they look similar.

And then there's the whole issue of Rosalina and Olimar being in the game with no apparent trouble.
