    Ridley serves as another villain on the roster and another Metroid representative. Plus he is kind of a dragon and dragons are always cool.

    But now we have two Samus characters and Charizard covers the dragon angle so...

    There is even a purple Charizard I believe :P
    Charizard has other Dragon types as its color schemes iirc
    The purple is Garchomp

    Ridley's great as a boss in Brawl and as a boss/hazard in the Wii U version. As a Metroid fan I think that's awesome.

    I hope SSB4WiiU is getting a proper cinematic opening

    No grass type Pokemon? That seems odd given the others. Trying to see if I missed something but wow did this thread cover a lot of ground.

    My love for Ice Climbers lessened quite a bit when I had to actually play the game in NES Remix. Dear lord, who thought it was a great idea to have them control that shittily?

    When I was a kid, I don't think I ever reached the top, and I still had fun, lol.

    I bought the Famicom Mini version on GBA because I had a Famiclone at the time, Topis were seals instead of Yetis. I always wanted a real NES, though =(

    Greninja gets Grass Knot in the games, and it becomes a Grass type then. Does that count?

    Apparently you can't post screenshots to Miiverse. Miiverse won't open when the game is running. People think it's most likely a RAM usage issue.

    EDIT: And apparently the New 3DS will be able to get to Miiverse while playing. That sure does sound like RAM.

    The only correct way to play Greninja will be to use his shiny skin.

    Just saw someone play through Classic as Greninja. He looks like a lot of fun!

    There are honestly just too many characters I want to main :P

    So, predictions of who to main?

    I'm thinking Greninja is going to be a good one. He's probably my first pick.

    I have my doubts that Sonic will become suddenly viable with his changes, but I'm definitely willing to give him another try.

    I'm not sure Megaman is my playstyle but I definitely want to give him a shot too.

    And then maybe Marth/Lucina because I apparently play exclusively blue characters.

    So this is interesting

    http://nintendoeverything.com/super-smash-bros-for-3ds-final-block-size/
    Super Smash Bros. 3DS is out now in Japan, and we’re hearing that the download is quite a bit less than originally anticipated. You’ll only need 9,320 blocks of free space (will likely vary slightly depending on region) in order to successfully download the game. That’s significantly less than the 17,300 blocks of space originally listed on Japanese packaging last month.

    oh em gee dee el cee confirmed samurai pls

    I'm happy with the roster. My only real disappointment is no Mewtwo, since he was one of my favorite characters despite his weakness in Melee. And is my favorite in Project M.

    There are several other things I would have preferred, but never really dared to dream of. Like Ridley, Golden Sun rep, Wonder Red, etc.

    But I am super happy with this roster. Really hyped for Robin, Greninja, and Megaman. Plus I'm excited for Bowser Jr('s alts), Shulk, Villager, Asshole Dog, and even Pitoo (though I wish he had two or three different moves to differentiate him more).

    Assuming we have seen everyone in the game but ROB, our death toll stands:

    Snake

    May we honor and mourn our fallen fighters

    Snake? Snaaaaaaaaaaaaaaake!

    Yup. Gotta cut a popular, unique and third party character to make room for a pit clone, sorry.

    Couldn't possibly have been that the two companies couldn't come to agreeable likeness use terms. It's obviously because of spite/space issues.

    It could even have been due to PSAll stars honestly

    Now that would be interesting, given Kojima did more Metal Gear with anyone not named Nintendo already, even before Brawl.
    And Rob? Who the hell cares about Rob these days?!

    Right here.

    In fact, I want amiibo of R.O.B. and Duck Hunt so bad I can practically taste it.

    The thing I don't like about Dark Pit is he is literally a palette swap of Pit. At least Dr. Mario has a different costume... I just kind of feel like if they were going to make clones, they could have picked just about any other character and come up with a better clone :P

    But whatever, I'm not going to get mad over it or anything. I just think it's a weird choice.

    Edit: Also I saw in a video that Dr. Mario has the cape attack, which is dumb. They should have just given him whatever his Smash Bros 64 move for that button was (which I'm pretty sure wasn't the cape)

    He wasn't in SSB64. I don't even think that game had side specials, did it?

    And weird they'd give him the cape; I think he had like a giant prescription sheet in place of it in Melee.

    Also, Ness kinda stole Lucario's:

    Yee-ah! That's m'boy!

    So, question about Dark Pit: Theory was that he would play as Pit did in Brawl, while Pit now has the Uprising gear. Is this the case, or no? I saw mentions of him using a "staff," which sounds like his bow/blades from Brawl, but I just want to be sure.

    Also, sucks that of all the alternate costumes-as-characters that they would shaft Daisy like that. She was the original! =P

    If Nintendo wants to sell DLC characters I won't hesitate to buy them all. They could even release new editions every year and I would buy both versions of the game each time.

    Well, at least as long as the characters amount to more than Mario in different outfits. How about Luigi in different outfits? Dr. Luigi DLC is a cross-promotion waiting to happen.

    Mega Man is my favorite video game franchise ever, so I'm determined to master him (BTW, is Mega Man the only character whose Final Smash includes an extended cutscene?).

    I'm probably going to be using Greninja a lot, too.

  • PLAPLA The process.Registered User regular
    There have been a couple of cutscene-smashes.

    And also Duck Hunt. Those five should be all

    From what I've seen I think the Koopalings might end up getting a lot of playtime, which surprises me more than anyone. They seem to have really good aerials and projectiles, which fits my play style. (I mained Peach in Melee and Lucario in Brawl.) Robin's a contender for the same reasons.

    I want to main Rosalina or Shulk, but I suspect that their mechanics may be a touch too complicated for me to keep track of at the end of the day.

    If Dr. Mario got FLUDD and Mario got back the Mario Tornado and Spin Jump as they were in Melee (with an added Galaxy flourish to the Tornado, mind), I'd be perfectly happy with that.

    This is apparently the full track list of the 3DS version.

    There could be more since some are unlocked through challenges, but this should be the majority of them.

    113, compared to 258 in Brawl. (Just for sake of comparison, doesn't really bother me because there was a lot of superfluous BS in Brawl.)

    That was to be expected since there are only 2 tracks per stage in the 3DS version, plus some extra ones for Smash Run. We know that the Wii U version will have many more songs per stage.

    A lot of superfluous BS? Eh, other than a couple of Warioware tracks duplicated in English and Japan, Brawl's soundtrack was a treasure trove of awesome.
