Smash WiiU & 3DS Miiverse Daily Pic - September 30th

[Smashboards]

Super Smash Bros. for WiiU & 3DS director Masahiro Sakurai said: "Pic of the day. In the 3DS version, your fighter gets outlined by your team color. So, how does this work in the Wii U version? Check out this screenshot. In this picture, the outlines may seem faint, but the color intensity is consistent. This means that the farther away and smaller your fighter appears on the screen, the clearer the colors will look."

 

[Sonovin]

Ohhh when I first saw this, I didn't see the outline. NOW I see it.

 

[BobEugCox]

I was really hoping this feature would be on the Wii U as well. My best friend and I only play team battles together and she only allows us to play as the Green Team... I am SO sick of every characters GREEN costume!

 

[JabbatheHutt]

It is far easier to tell your team member s apart by forcing them to be a color. This doesnt translate well at all on the Wii U version.

 

[Cancel]

It will work the same way =D

 

[Fluggerson]

Link is a Pokemon trainer now!

 

[Toon612Link]

Only 5 hours late, not bad!

 

[SmashingObjection]

Man, after watching so much of the 3DS version it's easy to forget how beautiful the WiiU looks.

 

[KrymsonSkyz]

Hey at least it's Wii U ****...Interesting.

 

[Malion]

I hope this doesn't limit costume opportunities because of characters needing to fit a certain outline.

Though I do like what this means for team battles.

 

[Captain Zack]

Guys please.

It's not like that option doesn't exist though, team players can just organise to use the same colours among themselves if they have difficulty.

Also the lines apparently become thicker as you zoom out, they are only thin here because the camera is so close.

 

[Kaiju]

That ****'s so hard to see, though. Finding that outline was like playing I Spy.

Old news smashboards come on get with the times

 

[Duskinja]

For those who don't know: the pic has been out for hours now. Rumor has it that the translation just wasn't ready up until this point.

 

[DrizzyDrew]

Dam this game looks gorgeous

 

[Pazzo.]

One of these things is not like the other...

Spoiler

Link has no fire powers. :3

How is this old news? The pic hasn't been on the official site for even half a day.

It's more of a cosmetic change than killing your eyes. Not everyone is into Red, Blue and Green only teammates.

 

[Fire Tactician]

But Charizard should be on the Red Team...

 

[Brango]

Sweet nice. I wanna be Red Falco in the Blue Team

 

[Indigo Jeans]

It's ancient news kid

You're right. I think he oughta throw on that handy dandy fire tunic.

 

[EmblemCrossing]

I don't really understand the complaints. Typically if you're on a team with someone, you know which character/palette you are, and all that leaves is to remember your partner's choice.

With only four characters on the screen, it shouldn't be that much of an issue.

 

[WinterShorts]

At least it's not menus..............................three..........
.......more.................days....................

 

[Shog]

Wow, this is awesome, what is up with you folks? We can finally have a purple, white etc. team! With glorious outlines to boot: For example, my sister always liked Yellow Kirby, and now with this, she can use Yellow Kirby and I can use Yellow Link/Pikachu/etc. so she can have fun with her favourite color. And the outline is like an aura, that's awesome.

Am I the only one here liking this :<

 

[RPGatWill]

There are too many Wii U Updates. We need more 3DS pics.

^
The above is a joke. Do not take it seriously I beg you. Also that pic is pretty cool as it explains a thing for teams which I really like so yeah.

 

[Aguki90]

So like the 3DS version. YES, no more use this color only team!!!

Now everyone is freely can make dark vs. Light or hero vs. Villian.

P.S. Red team and blue team still exist anyway.

 

[Demie Duken]

Frankly I like this option of distinguishing teams better than assigning colors, it looks clean. I feel team battles could've always been done like this, but the outline makes it a bit more evident of who's where.

Just the same, I wonder if being able to restore the assigning of teams by color is present as an option.

 

[Vashimus]

I was really hoping this feature would be on the Wii U as well. My best friend and I only play team battles together and she only allows us to play as the Green Team... I am SO sick of every characters GREEN costume!

Or you could man up and say no, I want to be blue / red.

 

[TaichiYaegashi]

These complaints...

 

[HellTyrant]

Looks nice, so forced palette switches to match team color are no longer part of the game?

 

[Amiibo Doctor]

It should be an option, not the only choice.

 

[MegaMango]

It is far easier to tell your team member s apart by forcing them to be a color. This doesnt translate well at all on the Wii U version.

As others have said already, you can just organize yourselves to share certain colors per team.

This can create interesting "color teams" like, instead of just red, green and blue, some character pairings might be able to do yellow, orange, black, white, purple, pink teams etc.

 

[AIM0001]

I like his idea! No more forcing us to be one color! To the people who say they will have a hard time knowing who your teammate is...really? Cuz all you have to do is remember your own character and who your partner picked...it's not like this is a 4v4 all out battle....it's just 2v2!

 

[The Original Robot boy]

*Squints Eyes* hmmm?

oh there it is!

 

[JJpalmer]

whoo so i can wear black/chrom ike pallete and travel with a shirtless shulk i like this

Yeah, but if you have an enemy picking the same character as your teammate, it can get a little challenging distinguishing between the two... or if... you have an all Fox fight *shudder*

Aaaanyways, that's not much of a problem at all. You can still have both characters on each team pick the same color as their teammate be it red, green, blue, black, white, purple, etc.

 

[Wasp]

i don't understand why they've chosen this outline option in the first place. Just place the red/blue/yellow/green icon above the characters.

Kind of off topic, but when does the Project M Art Tuesday thing happen?
