    I just watched the vid again.

    They skipped Fact 53.

    Does anyone recognize the track that plays during the CD part (20)?

    It seems familiar but I can't quite put my finger on it. Is it from Fire Emblem?

    The one played for the wii u disc is They Will Know Our Names, from Xenoblade.

    No, that's not it.

    Edit: It's the track that starts playing at 11:35 in the Youtube video.

    I didn't even have to look this up, I remembered which game and that victory was in the title, send help

    e: oh hey, beat Wyborn

    I'll be taking that trophy/shame hat for forums fire emblem expert now

    Yes, that's it, thanks! I knew it was either from Path of Radiance or Radiant Dawn.

    I was so disappointed by the limitations of the stage builder in Brawl. This new one looks fantastic.

    So now it's time for new disappointments, yay!
    I was hoping they'd replace Target Smash with Break the Targets. Target Smash is the worst, and no alterations can improve its terrible core.
    No word of a more flexible "With Anyone". I hate time smash so much
    No voice chat during battles. WHY WON'T YOU LET ONLINE PLAY BE FUN SAKURAI!?
    They used Ridley's humanoid steroid-abuse design.
    I am going to spend a tragic amount of money on amiibos.

    That's all I got, really.

    I'm really glad to have event matches back, as well as all of the other MIA features from Brawl. The Master/Crazy mode looks neat. Smash Tour looks more fun than Smash Run. The trophy presentation looks great. The new classic mode format looks to be both fun and a major change of pace. The new stages and overall stage selection look great, way better than the 3DS's. Danger Zones will mitigate the problem with playing on very large stages. More Reyn references. MEWTWO'S BACK! I HOPE HE DOESN'T SUCK!

    So I'm hyped.

    I wonder when Duck Hunt is going to get his movie.

    Did they mention the control requirements for 8-player Smash? I assume you'll need four 3DSes or a Gamecube Controller adapter to pull it off.

    I think the whole "We're not using voice chat during the match because netcode" is about as good an excuse as you're liable to get out of Nintendo

    Does the Wii U only accept 4 wireless connections?

    The WiiU uses bluetooth, IIRC, which allows up to 7 devices + the controller as the 8th. The gamepad itself uses some kind of dual-wireless feed that is its own beast. My guess is that the 3DS/WiiU probably rides the wireless as well as opposed to bluetooth, and the GC adapters take 2 USB ports.

    So all in all.. theoretically you could use more than 4 Wiimotes/Pro controllers, but the limitations of the lights on the controllers might kick in.

    A number of things could happen on that front. They could shrink the mugshots to make more fit, or have a second "page" or something.

    Just saw this under their online page:

    " When playing online, your nickname will appear. Players engaging in inappropriate behavior can be reported in the same way they can be reported in Miiverse.

    Additionally, any of the behavior listed below may result in a temporary ban in online play.

    - Not actively playing
    - Targeting a single player
    - Repeated self-destructs
    - Dropping matches
    - Modding or other cheating
    - Inappropriate messaging
    "

    seriously? how is that even remotely enforceable.

    If the Palutena Codec about Mewtwo doesn't involve a nudge to Palutena's similarly unimaginative nickname for Dark Pit, I will be extremely angry on the internet.

    So this game is 60 fps, 1080p, and 8 players simultaneously, all while looking amazing. Sakurai is a wizard, confirmed?

    Also, holy crap. I expected DLC eventually, but I did not expect to see a new character announced today.

    something that disappoints me.

    Why is every Metroid stage a variation on "cave full of lava"?

    There are other environments in Metroid. Derilect spacecraft, ghost-filled ruins, ice fields, techno-castles, acid rain tubeland...

    Sakurai said that the reason was that they'd be delayed to 2015 if they were released at the same time.

    Yeah, it was BS.

    Interesting - another thing I noticed was that Shulk had an indicator for his arts on his health bar, but that doesn't appear to be present on the 3DS. It does look like they are taking feedback from the 3DS version.

    Brawl had the Orpheon. But yeah, something besides acid/fire would be nice. Part of it is though that most areas Samus goes through are filled with hazardous shit. Like Phazon. Which wouldn't be much different!

    Phendrana Drifts would be neat, or Dark Aether somewhere.

    They get a replay of the match and review it. It's more to stop crap like taunt parties

    I'm hoping Mewtwo gets a big overhaul. Enough pokemon have fireball neutrals as is. Also Confusion and force palm are oddly similar. the fact that he's taking so long implies some drastic changes.
