Glad to see that they are embracing both kinds of players. Different Final Destination skins is the best thing ever for it. :)

Having a variety of FD is nice but i'm pretty disappointed Battlefield-type stages aren't included in Pro-mode.

Countblanc posted:

Evidently the japanese smash tournament scene pretty exclusively plays on FD, and Nintendo loves the poo poo out of Japan, so it isn't likely to happen.

Counterpicking isn't really a thing in random matchmaking typically, since you rarely know who someone is going to pick before the game starts and there almost certainly won't be a rematch function for random play.

I'm expecting a lot of people that use projectiles and not so many Bowser-esques

Why even put in the feature if they couldn't balance around it at all? It's just kind of ridiculous.

Because Sakurai's brain will explode and then we won't have any smash bros :(

So I know that your online rank is equivalent to how many people you've bested, but is that all there is to it? Just +1 per win? Or we we think it will also -1 for a loss? And someone was complaining that there seems to be no way to control how many people per match, are we just assuming that because all the matches showed 4 people in them? Or did I miss him saying that there is no way to choose these things?

I really hope you can choose your number of opponents, I think 1 V 1 is the most fun way to play.

E: I am speaking strictly about online matches. I know obviously its very simple to control the number of players offline.

IIRC the pro mode shows your win/loss record?

And yeah I don't think they mentioned any sort of filtering for public online play which is a shame. I really hope the standard play is a 3 stock match instead of a 2 minute timer....:negative:

Also cause it might be a fun as heck sandbox for casual players. It's more customization, which I love, but is being intentionally left out of competitive play, which I think is better.

Good point, dunno why it doesn't have its own matchmaking lobby. I'm sure we will have a pretty large group of goons just trying crazy stuff so i'm not too worried

Space T Rex posted:

Oh my god I didn't even think of this. If you can't even customize game format...I don't even know. Suicide? Probably suicide tbh.

You know, with all the effort Sakurai has put into allowing players to play anyway they want to this time, I can't imagine him stopping at just "for fun" and "for glory", surely he went all the way and let you choose number of players and game type. Right?! Please?

The game sounds pretty amazing so far but if they somehow gently caress up the pubby customization while getting a lot of things right..i just..:shepicide:

I was just rewatching some bits, and the Kirby Air Ride...power up...Battle Royale...thing is described specifically as a "4 Player Battle Game". If all game types online were always 4 player, that would be redundant right? Its making me more optimistic at least.

The Ridley tease is a pretty big troll, ZSS was stupid trolly, Waluigi was just Sakurai being an rear end in a top hat, but this poo poo right here.

I hope there's an rear end in a top hat Mastermind mode for the Wii U where someone with the pad gets to gently caress with the people playing. Drop items, drag people around, flip the stage, spawn enemies, change gravity, fire lasers, etc. That would be awesome.

Why would Nintendo utilize their tablet? I don't understand.

I can dream :saddowns:

They could make it really cool if it was like a Master Hand mode. You could still do all that stuff, but if you were enough of a fucker the fighters could stop what they were doing and gang up and kill you. Maybe give the hand secret alternate win conditions like make sure the winner has 2 stock left, or end the match in under 4 minutes, or get one of the fighters over 200% damage.

I'm actually optimistic we will have something of this nature since we got city trial of all things on the 3ds

Ganon and Falcon having different movesets would be awesome too but i'm gonna miss that gerudo kick

He could be like the Ike-est Ike. The strongest and slowest beast with a disjointed hitbox (sword).

Actually I don't know if I want them to switch up Ganondorf, hes a lot of fun to play in melee especially with his aerials. I guess if they keep the satisfaction of thunder-powered thighs and back-airs that smack you across the map i'll be content. I haven't tried him in P:M yet but I hope he got the buff he deserved

I'm very concerned that the Ice Climbers will be cut due to the 3DS's limitations. Handling as many as eight equally-complex 60fps fighters at once could not be possible.

So some people are really convinced that those roster shots are real. I'm 100% sure that they're fake, but may as well post about the latest one, which shows Ridley's model.

Now, to be fair, it's not an old render as far as I can tell, but... well, look for yourself.

So apparently we're getting gamecube controllers for the Wii U in time for Smash.

this is the best news


Kelp Plankton posted:

Yeah, they've shown what it looks like too. It's not a Gamecube controller, it's a "Wii U Wired Fight Pad".



No c-stick, no d-pad. It'd be okay for stuff like Street Fighter, but not really a replacement for the GC controller for Smash Bros.

A thread full of people who admit to being lardasses walking around in video game themed shirts is surprisingly bitchy about some other fat weirdo's fashion choice (which isn't even a fashion choice, he's wearing it for sentimental reasons).

Like, I have an old ratty t-shirt I still have that was made for me for participating in a high school drama festival. I wear it for pajamas and while I'm doing laundry but I understand that it probably shouldn't be worn to represent my high school or my state because it is ugly and old and frequently not appropriate for the weather.
