Super Smash Bros. for Wii U & 3DS Discussion

[Smashgoom202]

I was talking to someone on Facebook how Sakurai didn't specifically say it was "N's Castle", but rather "someone's castle". This guy is a big-time supporter of Ridley, and he uses the fact that Ridley was never explicitly mentioned by Sakurai as a means to justify that he might be playable. In comparison, he says that many other characters, including Takamaru this past Monday, were revealed right off the bat and didn't dance around the issue at all. He thinks that this might mean N could potentially have a bigger role in the upcoming Super Smash Bros., and wants to wait for a more dramatic reveal. Someone even suggested that N might be playable, but I highly doubt that.

Speaking of theories, I read somewhere that Milotic might actually be a form taken by Zoroark. It would make sense since Zoroark is associated with N.

Er, that's one heck of a "theory"....N's probably going to be a background character if anything. No way in hell he'll be playable because he can't use Pokemon because of transformations being gone and what would his moveset even be? Generic punching and fighting?

Also, Sakurai probably didn't mention it because A) it's pretty obvious who's castle it is, considering Reshiram is there and B) even though this sounds dumb and the game is three years old, it might because it's still kind if a big spoiler. I mean, it'll be spoiled when the games out anyways.

Edit: Also, Zoroark was confirmed to be a Pokeball Pokemon, so that wouldn't work.

That would be brilliant if that turned out to be the case!

[FAKE CAPTION:] Pic of the day. A BOMB! This is one of the new modes of the 3DS version. You'll be attacking this bomb and aiming it at a target. But what IS the target?

The targets. Did you expect anything else out of Smash Brothers?

EDIT : le real caption:

Pic of the day. What's up with this bomb? This looks like the stadium for the Home-Run Contest, but there's no bat. Once you touch the bomb, it begins to count down. Give it enough damage and launch it at the right time, then once the bomb's countdown hits zero...

...It goes BOOOOOM! Not only will the blast destroy targets, but it'll also cause a chain reaction by using shattered walls and bomb blocks--all of which contributes to you getting a high score! This is a new activity that combines the concepts of Target Smash and the Home-Run Contest--it's called Target Blast! Your final score is the total you rack up over two rounds. Of course, your Target Blast scores contribute to your Global Smash Power, too.

So it is Target Smash, Home-Run Contest, and Angry Birds in one. Neat.

Tortteror (spell check ) wouldn't make sense though. Sceptile would make more sense(except he was the worst Gen 3 Stater, for me anyway). Fee alligator is my fav, but it ain't happen in'. Blaziken would make sense too (And who doesn't like him besides everyone? Me)

Awesome! I wanted a character reveal, but this mode looks to be very fun!

You misspelled Torterra and Feraligatr.

but it's not more of the PM stage

Cool regardless though. I'll probably never touch it like I barely touched Home Run Contest.

tbh, I don't know why people were getting hyped over a character reveal.

 

[Tyrell Badd]

I knew they would fuck it up somehow. What a boring and anti-climatic way to end an otherwise great week.

I guess Sakurai dropped-

an F-bomb. *drumroll*

 

[GBA]

pft I wouldn't expect a veteran/newcomer until the Nintendo Direct this month anyway. This angry birds a la sakurai mode looks fun.

 

[Toa 95]

The Nintendo Direct that's about Hyrule Warriors?

No, silly! The other Nintendo Direct.

Spoiler

Agitha confirmed.

wait it's been announced?

shit

e:well we still might get a general direct anyway (or a whole lotta specialised ones), it's been two months

 

[Tyrell Badd]

It's probably going to be like April with a lot of specialized Directs for specific games. I'll be flabbergasted and utterly disappointed if there is no Smash Direct this month. Sakurai's hiding too much information and the game is nearing release for Japan so he might as well just drop one final load of info that will keep people busy for the last two months (month in Japan's) case. Besides, it's a good excuse to just drop the last two newcomer videos during then, one in the beginning, one at the end.

And yes, I believe there is at least two newcomer videos. I feel that if there was one more, Sakurai would have mentioned the next one being the last one during the Lucina/Robin one. He said "nearing the bottom of the barrel" which I feel 3 fits perfectly. It's a small enough number, yet isn't "near the bottom". I'd be happy if there's more, but I'm staying hopeful for at leas two.

5th August. Maybe we will get another Zelda rep (CD-I Link :P)

Rayman? Skip to 2:05

 

[3D Player 2004]

Please tell me this merging is only in the 3DS version. I do not want to have one of the most stressful modes of the game forced down one of the funnest in the Wii U version.

 

[New Super Mario]

Rayman? Skip to 2:05

I doubt it. I'm guessing he just meant to say Mega Man but said Rayman instead.

I like Break the Targets. I hope it doesn't get merged.
