That's an exception
I would consider it a delay. They did say it would be release in Summer, not just Japan.
Not necessarily disagreeing with you here, but I find funny how the version which will obviously sell a lot more is automatically labeled as the one which "won't see as much competitive play", just because it is the handheld version.
It's because more people (and casuals) have a 3DS, so it should sell more, but that won't make it competitively viable. It might see some side play, but I don't see it developing a big scene on its own because of the WiiU version. The spacing of the buttons and "stick" on the 3DS make it seem a little bit too hard to precisely control to that degree, anyway.
Never had a hard time using the controls on the 3ds... Of course this is just my opinion and I know many people are used to the GameCube controller and it would be cool to use it but personally if they have customizable controls, which I'm guessing it does, then I'm mapping the x button to a grab and changing it so both shoulders buttons use the shield.
yeah and Brawl was great.
One of my favorite games, yes.
Pretty sure they're not gonna add another character in that time.
Brawl was released with data of scrapped or unfinished playable characters. SSB4 is going to have about 50 characters put in within a few years. It's definitely possibly pushing it back a month or two could mean they could finish a character or two, polish them, and include them.
Yeah but I doubt it.
Not just that, it gives them more time to fine tune every character.
Well it's why Jigglypuff and Wolf were added, they had extra time so they put the work in. All of the extra clones in Melee were actually in for similar reasons as well, as the clones didn't need so much for bug testing, they were easy inclusions while they had extra time. So we might get clones, but any expansion to the roster isn't bad really.
Falco will probably get a couple new moves to differentiate him from Fox even more anyways.
If I'm honest, in Melee, I loved both the clones and the original character the clones were based off of. I love Pikachu because he's an adorable freaking mouse, I loved Pichu because he's an even more adorable little mouse and according to my experiances more of a glass cannon than most give him credit for. I loved Marth because he's cool, and blue, and a swordsman, and I loved Roy because he's cool, red, and a swordsman. I loved the Star Fox characters because Falco's a bird (I love birds) and Fox was just cool, and I loved both Mario and his medical counterpart because Mario had fire and Doc M. had electricity and Death Pills. Honestly, I don't care if they're mostly the same, I love the characters for who they are and what they are.
I agree. Falco was kinda Luigified in Brawl and I consider Wolf similar but different enough to say that he's not a clone but he is rather close. Sure, the basic attacks themselves between Fox and Wolf were essentially the same, but Wolf used them differently. His Side-Special always moved him at an angle upwards and to the side, his Reflecter was the same for the most part but it also seemed better for offense in my opinion, and did anyone else know that Wolf's blaster could actually do melee damage if you were close enough to someone? Wolf straight up tries to bash your skull before shoots you!
You mean like Miyamoto..?
>implying Sonic '06 was bad BECAUSE of rushing or anythingYou mean like Miyamoto..?
Nothing is absolute, but this quote is great truth. Being a Sonic Fan, I'd figure you know why delays (or their lack,) can make or break a game.
