Why does everyone think I'm going to get in trouble?

Just noticed this in the Greninja trailer:


Anyone have an idea at what stage this is supposed to be?

Looks like a Kalos-region Elite 4 arena.

One thing I forgot to note is that Mega Man Volnutt being in the final smash for Mega Man has reminded me that Servbots should be in most games but are in very few.

Game looks super sweet, can't hardly wait.
Nintendo releasing the 3DS version months before the Wii U version does kinda confirm that they're just playing to their strengths and wanting to make the 3DS version the best-selled one.

Is Sakurai going through some Benjamin Button-esque poo poo? He looks younger every year, I swear.

They should put in Eddie as an Assist Trophy. 90% of the time he just throws out a piece of food, but every now and then he gives you a smash ball or a maxim tomato.

Hopefully it plays more like Hyrule Temple and less like New Pork City.

I just noticed, Greninja's final smash is exactly the same as Chipp Zanuff's overdrive attack in guilty gear.

By far the highlight of that whole show was the return of Kremlings.


King K. Rool may not be such a long shot.

Considering a majority of the stage is actually platforms and not just a big rear end background with a medium sized platform, I'm leaing towards the former.

This seems like it would have been a better fit on the 3DS, no? I like the concept of huge stages but if they zoom out too far it's just awful.

No tripping. Sakurai claims that the game will be "somewhere between melee and brawl in gameplay". That's all we know for sure.

No tripping. Combat looks faster than Brawl, but I noticed nobody really fell as fast as Melee, but at least faster than Brawl.

I think it's banking on the fact that you can get away with smaller onscreen elements in HD, as well as the fact that most fights won't naturally involve everyone spreading so far apart.

This would be great if you split it down the middle into two separate stages.

Have they said that they're removing all tether recoveries before? They changed all of them for characters that are in the direct which is probably for the best.

Game is gonna be fun, can't wait. I don't even know which new character I'll use first!

It basically plays slightly slower than Melee sans wavedashing/etc (who knows what hidden mechanics this one will have though), and attacks are doing closer to Melee levels of hitstun so combos are a thing again. I haven't seen anyone airdash at all in any video so who knows if it's using Melee or Brawl style stuff.

Basically it looks like a more newbie friendly melee, and I'm completely ok with that (as long as there's at least one good heavyweight character)

I'm surprised they didn't do a section on controls, being that Brawl was really good about customizing controls I don't see it being an issue but it'd be nice to know that I'll be able to switch the buttons to whatever the hell on the 3DS.

Kirby Air Ride is the only racing game I have ever felt any lasting fondness for and City Trial is about 99% of the reason why. That mode was a masterstroke.

The other 1% was farting around in Top Ride.

Yeah, I still pull Air Ride out from time to time to play City Mode with some friends, and putting something like that into a far better, more robust game like Smash Bros is going to be amazing.

The WiiU version can't do the mode properly (everyone needs their own screen) but I hope it has something that's just as fun to fill that gap. Otherwise the 3DS version is going to be the only one people play.

Kid Icarus Uprising let you customize the controls a ton, so it's a safe bet that control customization is now standard Sakurai practice.

I really can't believe the 3DS version is releasing several loving months before the WiiU version. I guess they're REALLY in a hurry to see the WiiU fail and die. Thanks Nintendo.

Half the reason I changed my controls is because I think it's really funny when we have to rotate players and the first person who's using my name has this moment of complete bafflement when they try to jump and taunt instead, grab when they're trying to shield or jump when they want to grab. Then they tell me my controller's broken.
