Super Smash Bros. for Wii U & 3DS Discussion

it's the bros together!

Luigi's jump animation has changed.

 

[Shoko]

Luigi's jump animation has changed.

Or maybe it's just the single frame which makes the apparent animation seem different.

 

[GalacticPetey]

Nope. Sakurai said his jump animation now has him paddling his legs.

 

[Shoko]

Nope. Sakurai said his jump animation now has him paddling his legs.

Oh, well that seems pretty cool then.

 

[Ray Trace]

Well Luigi does need more differentiation from his bro.

 

[Unknown Entity]

Throwback to Super Mario USA. Yay.

Waitin' for dat SSB4 Marth design.

My lovely Marth. Oh so lovely...

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

Throwback to Super Mario USA. Yay.

More of it, actually. Luigi had always ran slower than Mario in the Super Smash Bros. games.

Mario is still somehow unable to reach the top of his head.

Well, the ability to do that is more related to head diameter and arm length than hand volume.

His hands are still a factor as tiny hands take up less space for arm less, but will make him look stupid.

 

[GBA]

Toon Link is in!

Alright I'll admit I expected him to be cut because of that Spirit Tracks stage, but I'm glad he's back.

Edit: Link

 

[Mario4Ever]

Wind Waker HD is probably why.

 

[Shoko]

Artwork available.

 

[GBA]

Wind Waker HD is probably why.

My guess as well.

 

[Xluidi]

Is he still going to be a clone? Because I'm feeling conflicted about wasting a character spot on just another version of Link when Sakurai himself said characters spaces are going to be limited.

 

[Anser]

Well, this sucks. I wanted him to be cut. I hope he's no longer a clone, at least.

 

[Shoko]

[...]I'm feeling conflicted about wasting a character spot on just another version of Link when Sakurai himself said characters spaces are going to be limited.

Agreed.

Personally, I really want to see characters from Fire Emblem.

 

[Revin]

wow that's an interesting development, considering he was like the number one person everyone expected to be cut

Personally, I really want to see characters from Fire Emblem.

don't we all?

EDIT: also i never really paid much attention to this before, but wow those wii u graphics look amazing

 

[New Super Mario]

I'm rather upset he's back, actually, especially if Ghirahim doesn't get in and he turns out to be a clone.

 

[Crackin355]

Personally, all the up-close screenshots don't make me think the graphics are all that great. But that's because they're up close, from a distance it'll look nice and smooth.

Don't really care that Toon Link is in. I don't really get excited when a veteran is confirmed, I'm waiting for either new characters or stages. Stages are always my favourite part of the smash bros games.

 

[Smashley]

ok wow i did not see that one coming

He's the character I would have missed the second least (Wolf is the only one I'll miss less if he's cut) but I can live with him coming back. I want no cuts anyway.

I think this also means that we're not getting one of the other "child" Links like Classic Link or Masked Link, and probably no more Zelda characters at all since I doubt they'll go over four and it's unlikely that they won't bring back the others from Brawl. I personally have no problems either way. I'm not big on any of the Zelda reps and I would take Toon Link over "Classic" or "Masked" Link any day.

 

[GalacticPetey]

Wasn't expecting him to return.

^This, but I hope that this Toon Link has some Spirit Tracks moves. If it doesn't then I'll be upset.

 

[SonicMario]

I'm pretty surprised myself. But I suppose Wind Waker HD was one thing that went against the fact Toon Link was considered the most likely cut.

Anyway, Toon Link and Peach have been confirmed in the same month

You know what this means? Veteran reveals aren't restricted to once a month

Meaning it's quite possible for us to see a Pokemon Character, AND Sonic next month! (For Pokemon X&Y, and Sonic Lost World)

The best thing about TL's reveal, right there.
