The Toad trophy reads "Why are they called Toads? Some are green, but they're not frog-like or anything. Captain Toad can't even jump! oh, wait... ohhhhhh, now it makes sense".

The "Pipes" trophy ends by going "Down the pipe! You sleep in pipes, dream of pipes. Pipes pipes pipes pipes pipes pipes!"

"Thwomp" is "Have you wondered what it would be like to have your own thwomp? If someone tried to break into your house, it would just go "THWOMP" on their head! Yep, a thwomp would make a great home-security system. Nowhere sells them though. Sad times"

Seriously read some of them, it really made me consider what the job must have been like.

Writer: Alright, so I just need to write descriptions for these trophies, right?

Nintendo: Right.

Writer: Sooooo... You have any particular preference for how these descriptions should be like?

Nintendo: Apeshit crazy!

Are the trophy descriptions the same in the Japanese and English versions? Surely they cant all be exactly the same... right :stare:

Well, I mean, they're translations. You can't make something in English *exactly the same* as it was in Japanese. Especially when it comes to something that's making jokes and stuff. If there are as many puns in the JP version as there are in the US version, then those would be literally impossible to translate directly.

That said, the general jokey, kind of wacky tone seems to be the same in both languages, yeah.

I seriously can't wait for this, it's going to be great.

Wish I could take the day off, but I have an exam. Oh well, I should be home early enough to Smash nearly all day and definitely all night. And Pokemon too. Basically lots of good things tomorrow, can't wait.

I'm so glad events and lots of music are back, and items on low, good things!

Don't forget the Pokemon Trainer trophy where half of the description was the Pokemon theme song lyrics repurposed with Smash terms.

Pop quiz! What do Misty, Brock, Cynthia, Iris, and Ash all have in common? That's right—they're all Pokémon Trainers! This Pokémon Master in the making is the same. Back in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, he fought to be the very best—like no one ever was. To smash them was his real test—to launch them was his cause!

There is a regular battlefield and a "big battlefield" with like 6 platforms for 8 player matches

what is confusing is that you can still use regular battlefield for 8 player matches anyway

You can play with another person (only one more person, so two players) on your console online, if that's what you're asking.

Also since everyone else is doing it, NNID BlazeDragonEt. Should have the game by tomorrow early enough.
