Super Smash Bros. for Wii U & 3DS Discussion

Calling it right now. Wolf gets shown at E3 along with the new Star Fox game.

i hope so

also banjo <3

shantae would be cool too

 

[Tyrell Badd]

I'd be fine with Banjo-Kazooie and Shantae. I mean, both are highly unlikely, but I would be fine with them. I'm a little more hesitant on Shovel Knight, mostly because he's only had one game and people are basing it off of NES era-esque nostalgia as far as I can tell. I apologize if it sounds condescending, but I couldn't really find a better way to word it. I'm sure it's a fantastic game, as I have yet to pick it up, but it seems odd that there's so many votes for him. If Shovel Knight does happen, then it's no skin off my back since I'm sure he'll be a fun character to play as, I just think there's better third-party options.

Shantae has 3 (soon to be 4 games), all that released on Nintendo consoles in some form or another, with the series even originating on Nintendo consoles whereas Shovel Knight only has one game (does the Plague Knight dlc count as a separate game?) that was just released last year.

As for Snake, iirc, the reason he got into Brawl was because Kojima (or maybe Kojima's son god knows what the real story is) requested his inclusion and Sakurai is buddy-buddy with Kojima. However, considering the recent fallout of Kojima and Konami, I'd say Snake's chances of returning aren't looking good.

i guess banjo-kazooie and shantae would be ok, but honestly i want to see actual first/second party characters before any more third-parties, especially since there are still a few nintendo franchises which have no reps

Mother of God

wha

 

[Lumastar]

If they're being legit with this, then this is great news!

 

[freakworld]

microsoft being okay with this does not necessarily mean that nintendo, or for that matter, sakurai, is okay with this

but still

 

[supermariofan]

What if someone at Microsoft voted for Master Chief?

I don't think they'd add Master Chief in Smash 4, but I feel that he would be top consideration for Smash 5.

 

[supermariofan]

If Banjo-Kazooie is added they better add these two songs.

BTW I heard he's in third place in the ballot...better keep spamming that ballot if I want him in.

Yacht Club Games is in support of Shovel Knight being in the game. It might happen!

Personally, I would love to have an indie franchise represented in Smash.

Can I have a link to a place where I can see which character is getting the most votes? I know it or something like it exists.

Who wouldn't love a good indie franchise being represented? Besides, it would be a godsend for the developers too. Just imagine...

 

[Lumastar]

For shovelry!

 

[Weasel]

oh god think of the awesome music that would come with him

 

[Lumastar]

Hopefully he gets a stage and at least one remix.

 

[Revin]

i like shovel knight and all but if theres gonna be an indie rep i'd prefer shantae tbh

 

[Lumastar]

I'd be happy with either one, to be honest. Both are in a similar boat: they would rep indies, they're on good ties with Nintendo, their developers support their inclusion, and both would be awesome to have in Smash.

Of course, I'm not sure if they're that popular in Japan. That could potentially be a problem.

 

[GalacticPetey]

Shovel Knight isn't even out in Japan yet.

 

[GBA]

oh god think of the awesome music that would come with him

explodatorium, spectre knight battle, yes please

but sadly while his support may be high i really doubt nintendo will partner with ycg to put shovel knight in smash, i'd love to be proven wrong though

i reckon k rool has the highest chance of becoming a newcomer atm

 

[Smashley]

shovel knight and shantae aren't that bad of choices but i'm not that interested in the possibility of any indie characters getting in tbh

 

[Lumastar]

Well that might have an effect on this!

Or Isaac.

Two days til' Mewtwo (For those who have both versions registered anyway)

How many people here will be getting Mewtwo on Wednesday/Thursday or so anyway? I will of course. Once I get him I'll run though Classic and All-Star on both versions with him as well as play as him in Training Mode and/or a few Vs. Matches.

I doubt I'll really main him. But still, the first ever DLC Smash Bros. character is exciting.

And for those who can't get Mewtwo until the 28th you can ask several people on their impressions with Mewtwo. So you know what you're in for if you're buying him.

 

[Red Barchetta]

I'm going to get him as soon as I can on Wednesday. I can't waaaiiiittttt <3

 

[Weasel]

Gonna have to wait 'til the 28th. Still getting him regardless, though.

 

[Mario4Ever]

I'll be getting him on Wednesday.
