K. Rool's Kremling Kutthroats: PM BKupa666 for an Invite to the New K. Rool Thread

[Yellowlord]

The Monday maintenance to Smash Bros. which many speculate will come with something new like characters or balance.

Eh, that's not until 6:00-7:00 PM Pacific Time tomorrow, actually. But yeah, based on the fact that it says only Online Play and Rankings (there is etc. next to them as well, so maybe it's something more then just those two, hmm? :3) may be unavailable on the Nintendo website, it may as well just be a fix for those only or likewise. It's just uncertain. With the timing of that boss mode leak (although I believe its fake), an update is possibly being foreshadowed.

We're all so desperate that we're clinging to anything that could potentially show a date.
"Sakurai created Kirby. Kirby eats a lot, so he must be full all the time, and he is round, like the moon. The next full moon is September 27. That's the day that the Smart 1 satellite was launched into space. September is also the month that the Soviet Union sent a dog called Liza into space. Dogs are the descendants of wolves. #WolfConfirmed"

Great Scott, Batman!

Yep, that settles it.

 

[Bedoop]

So I saw the Leak
I guess Nabbit doesn't exist
Because he's labeled as a Boss in every sense of the term
And is the only one able to actually move (Ridley just sorta claws and/or flies) and jump
Yet he is oddly missed out.
Ho-Hum.

 

[Yellowlord]

Hey guys: Did you notice the first image of that boss mode leak has a red light directly under the image of Master Hand? That comes from Laptops, if I'm not mistaken. Based on that detail, I believe it is fake (red light also appears in third image of the 6 images shown).


EDIT: I just noticed that if you look VERY CLOSELY in the image, there is a black wire behind the laptop/computer. Also, the entire screen is not covered, as the top left corner where the wire is appears to be in the shape of a Laptop. I can confirm its most likely fake now because of this evidence.

Repost this in the Wolf thread immediately.

I believe your finding of this being fake is correct, but it's worth pointing out that not all laptops have that sort of power LED (I must admit to never having seen such an oddly-shaped thing on one), but some brands of TVs and monitors commonly do. I don't think that changes anything, though.

this is funny

"When beating the mode, you'll get a trophy from a boss from that character's game. Samus gets another Ridley trophy, ZSS gets Meta Ridley, Luigi gets King Boo, you get the idea."

Someone ask him what trophy is obtained by beating the boss mode with Villager or Wii Fit Trainer, please.

Too bad Diddy couldn't have Wizpig.

 

[[Obnoxshush/Dasshizer]]

this is funny

Howtobasic's reaction to Wolf and Krool not being in the game at the initial release.

 

[Banjo-Kazooie]

For a moment I thought "Oh no video confirmation means the leak is real".
Got a sensible chuckle instead.

 

[gameonion]

This is a perfect video reaction for **** that Sakurai does.

take leaks with a grain of salt. but this actually sounds rather cool. and a good compromise for ridley fans. and we get master hand and co too!
i mean..... this is probably fake. but the entire roster was leaked months before the games release (pre-dlc, obviously) and this sounds so far out of left field it makes me curious....
but then again... tower of smash.

it's from /v/

dont bother with it

 

[Pakky]

this is funny

I hahah I figured as much,I mean everytime you beat the hands on harder difficulties it could be considered a boss rush because you fight seven (possibly 8 when you include the actual core)
entities, mind you they are the same being but still.

 

[DJ3DS]

What can I say, I'm kinky like that.

Anyway back to Croc King. Do you guys think he'll shoot out cannonballs and spikes from his blunderbuss if it's part of his movest, or maybe just barrels and poison gases since bowser jr. and dedede already do that?

I imagine shooting a spiked cannonball that remains on the stage as a hazard. This makes it unique in execution compared to Jr and Dedede. How to balance? Given its a powerful trap I'd say being slow and leaving K Rool without a special whilst the hazard is active is enough. It's obviously better than Jr and Dedede's moves but those two need fixing in my opinion anyway.

Looks like the Boss mode pictures were made by the same guy who did the Dr. Mario stage.
And despite what he says in the tweets, he's not sorry.

We can put it behind us.

*oooooooh how surprising.*



Yea it was clear as a bell he made far more mistakes than last time

I probably should have told you guys this, but i've actually seen the ridley model before.

So i apologize for not mentioning it earlier

 

[Yellowlord]

I saw Splatoon is getting maintenance a day before an update is getting released for it (Maintenance is on 9/1, Update is on 9/2). Perhaps this means we could have a similar situation for Smash Bros?

I doubt it. But hopefully I'm wrong

 

[BKupa666]

So, looks like we get nothing today, surprise, surprise.

I've been thinking about what kind of character they'd show first from the ballot...it made me think, even if the Shovel Knight leak is legit, which I doubt, would he really be the first character shown? Think about it from a Japanese perspective:

"You've been voting for six months, Japanese fans, and we thank you! Now, the moment you've all been waiting for...a character you don't effing know!"

K. Rool is the perfect newcomer to show off first if he's in, since he appeals a whole lot to both the West and Japan. He's also first party (and thus not an indictment on the strength of Nintendo's own characters) and not a veteran (won't annoy people who want new characters as DLC at long last). If he weren't shown first, I'd be worried, with all that in mind.

I think we wont get anything special, unless they announce something today or tomorrow. But I think an announcement will be on the horizon sooner or later

 

[Joeyd123]

So what was the update on the Smash Ballot page yesterday?

 

[NK1046]

I thought the patch was at 6PM pst. So if i'm not mistaken it should drop way later today

[InASnowBoundLand]

Look what Nintendo of America just tweeted out. If only we would have won 1st place! Still. Exposure is exposure. And people clicking the link will see the image of "the Big Kings".

There was a problem fetching the tweet

 

[Sirfishe]

guys if their was a new character announced, I'm pretty sure that Sakurai would say something first. Its getting a little annoying that people look into little details and then be hyped about nothing. If sakurai wanted us to give us a character, then he say something

Im so thirsty of Smash News.

September's going to be a very slow and boring month isn't it?

Nothing, it wasn't updated, the pages are dynamically generated and when the cache gets reset, the page is marked as "updated" even though nothing has changed. (At least, that's my analysis.)

As long as you vote K.Rool, you do right.

 

[Sir Gengar de Èctoplasma]

Here is a poll by @PushDustIn . You all know what to do

I chose two veterans and two newcomers:
King K. Rool (my most wanted character)
Bandana Dee (my second most wanted character)
Wolf (my third most wanted character, only veteran I actually care about)
Snake (don't really care about him, but he is the best choice after Wolf)

 

[Deleted member]

Simon Belmont

Am I doing it right?

DID SOMEONE SAID SIMON BELMONT?

Shameless Plug i know.

Despite owning the Simon thread, i wanted to limit myself to Nintendo characters that have some sort of chance. (i have my reasons)

I choose 4 newcomers (sorry Wolf):
-Paper Mario.
-Bandanna Dee.
-Isaac.
-YOU WILL NEVER GUESS MY 4TH OPTION.
