I really don't think those are trampolines. I think they're just metal grates. You can see what looks like fan machinery underneath them. I could be wrong though.

Opps, I meant neutral B. :p I'm apparently quite tired. Good night!

Well, I'll be very surprised now if Squirtle's side B isn't Water Gun or a similar projectile. Edit: Er, I mean neutral B!

Well, bear in mind that tossing an egg now adds to Yoshi's jump, even though you wouldn't necessarily expect such an action to do so.

Here's a question to ponder. Will Ivysaur's Up B provide any vertical lift without a nearby ledge to grab onto?

I agree, it seems like an interesting move. While Pikachu's and Pichu's Thunder moves could be seen as serving a somewhat similar purpose (well, affecting a similar area anyway), I doubt the lag time for Bullet Seed will be anywhere near as large. It could have interesting juggle applications.

There's also probably a section of gameplay between the first and second video clips because there's a screenshot in the Subspace Emissary update showing Mario fighting Primids in that arena. Perhaps you get a choice of character for that section or perhaps not, but obviously Mario is at least...

Giga Bowser is only playable as a final smash. That is, a character of that immense size only seems likely to exist in circumstances where they're supposed to have a distinct advantage (such as during a final smash).

By the shear size of him, as well as his apparent role in the plot, I'd say it's more likely that he's just an adventure mode boss than a fully playable character.

Ah, but the mind game in that scenario is all about the precise timing of it. Unless the opponent has been knocked to the absolute limit of what he can recover from, he'll have some small amount of leeway in choosing when to return to the ledge. He'll try to time it so that he arrives either...

Now that this thread seems to be slowing down slightly I'll again raise the question I was wondering about a few pages back. Does anyone suppose that the gale boomerang will be able to retrieve items at a distance?

You're jumping to conclusions. If only the fully charged up B is as powerful as the one from melee, then he'd be weaker, but if the completely uncharged up B is as powerful as the one from melee, then he'd be stronger. At some point in between these extremes, there is presumably a spot where...

*ignores the innuendo* It looks to me to be about the same length as before in that last picture.

I wonder if the gale boomerang will be effective at grabbing items...

Looks like that's more likely a taunt than part of a move to me (why would she let go of the parasol when she's using it?), but perhaps. Edit: Or perhaps part of her character intro! Here's hoping!
