I was going to mention this image. Why does everything look so out of place?
 
I don't like how they use Shy Guys instead of actual racers
 
Just as I thought they couldn't make it any worse...
 
I disagree.

Save the Mii racers or whatever the hell for something Wii-related. Keep the --- out of the fricking MARIO stages that are supposed to represent MARIO.

But then we'd have people complain they just deconfirmed all those characters at once (Daisy, Waluigi, the Generic enemies that have been playable, etc.). Other then the racers in the games that we know already are Smash Bros. characters. There are some people who just would not like mass deconfirmations xP (Even if one way or another there will be mass deconfirmations eventually, the biggest one being when the full roster is revealed) Even if it's rather obvious that say most of the MK Wii roster for example won't make it for the of course the exception of those who have already been in Smash.
 
I don't see how the racers can be a deconfirmation

Wasn't the Blue Falcon, the Blood Falcon, and that pink car still racing around in the F-Zero stages?
 
That's true I suppose. But the difference is that Captain Falcon has been in Smash Bros. from the beginning where there wasn't even an F-Zero track in the original SSB, it's pretty much safer to expect Captain Falcon to be in the game even when of course his Blue Falcon is racing. It'd purely deconfirm the pool of Potential Mario Newcomers some kids think there is (When even before Rosalina was revealed, was not much of a pool but a few droplets)
 
Still, paradoxes can still occur. Remember Toon Link in that stage? Nintendo could make that happen if they wanted to. They don't really have to make sense. They favor gameplay over sense, sometimes.
 
The Link commandeering the Train is actually a totally different Link (In short Spirit Tracks Link =/= Wind Waker Link (AKA the playable Cel-Shaded Link)) I believe according to the official timeline (Though I'm sure it's only a minor point since those who don't follow or are informed of the different timelines thing in the Zelda series don't really know)

But yeah I do get that Nintendo does occasionally goof up something in a particular series in SSB. I'm not denying that it's happened before :P
 
@BLOF, just think...

With the Galaxy stage, they showed Lubba but no Rosalina. Later, they announced Rosalina as a playable character.

They show the Mario Kart stage, and show Shy Guys instead of Miis. What do you think that's saying?

>:D
 
I think they are saying they want to reuse the Shy Guys from the old Mario Circuit stage

I don't know man....they're just lazy and want to reuse Shy Guys as that Yoshi with a random string of numbers in his name said?
 
Three is still a string of numbers
 
Not a long one :P And anyway people may know me only for my current display name of 1 number

I like the fact the Shy Guys are back because at least it's an obstacle to keep an eye on. Delfino Plaza, whilst good, bored me sometimes in the fact there were no obstacles

Really? I love the fact that there were no stage hazards. It lets you focus and not get killed in a cheap and unfair way. I think matches should be determined by skills, not unpredictable items and stage hazards.
 
Dodging stage hazards IS part of a skill, though. Knowing when they come and don't should be factored into winning the match. For example, I know the patterns of the rising lava from Brinstar/Planet Zebes and I use them to my advantage.

Some stage hazards can just kiss my bass though. Mario Bros., Spear Pillar, YES I AM LOOKING AT YOU.
 
I hated, I think it was Palkia, when the move was used and your controls were reversed
 
Yes it was Palkia.

My god did I hate Palkia in Spear Pillar

Bottom line: some stage hazards are cool to live with, others can just burn in Norfair
 
i don't mind some stage hazards. i also don't care much about stages such as final destination and battlefield
