    How will Smash 5 top Smash 4?

    Smash 4 isn't even released yet. Talking about Smash 5 is beyond premature.

    Smash Bros for Wii U tournament popularity

    I don't know how many times this has to be repeated: Not even the most diehard Melee fans are asking for "Melee 2.0". What we want is a good competitive title with plenty of mechanical depth to explore and master. We don't care if the engine and system mechanics are completely different so long...

    Adding New Clones: Good or Bad?

    Until someone has actually sat down with Lucina and played her extensively, you have absolutely no basis for claiming that she is a "sweetspot-less Marth". Nobody here actually knows how similar she will be to Marth in terms of overall mechanics, combo-potential, movement options, etcetera. How...

    Adding New Clones: Good or Bad?

    I find the term "clone" to be a fairly stupid one, to be honest. Since when has anyone with even a fundamental grasp of Smash mechanics considered Luigi and Mario "too similar" when it comes to mechanics and abilities? How about Falcon and Ganon? Fox and Falco? Link and Toon/Young Link? Lucas...

    Who's Canonically the Strongest Character in Smash?

    I hate to get nerdy on you guys, but I'll elaborate since I'm bored. (Don't hate me for this!) A black hole is an object with such mass that even light cannot escape its gravitational pull. Nothing in the known universe travels faster than the speed of light. Even if Sonic travels faster than...

    Are the Renders well made?

    I think it's her eyes. They look pretty vacant and absent in the in-game screenshot. It gives her entire face a blank, thoughtless expression.

    Gameplay Feedback: Will the Smash Wii U/3DS mechanics receive changes?

    As much as I would like an extensive mechanics overhaul, I do not expect it to happen. As stated previously in this thread, the hyper-casual players care far more about the amount of content of the game than the technical aspects of the engine. Perhaps I'm cynical, but I think the best case...

    For anyone questioning why everyone flies so far after getting hit.

    I don't mean this as a personal insult, but I would really need a source in order to take your word on the Brawl demo. Sakurai's own statements express regret for making Melee too fast and too mechanically complex, and I would find it unlikely that Brawl approximated Melee at any point in its...

    Who's Canonically the Strongest Character in Smash?

    Rosalina's control over galaxies and space would make her the strongest. No amount of weapons or magic is going to help you resist or escape a supermassive black hole. Just sayin'.

    For anyone questioning why everyone flies so far after getting hit.

    If you wait until the final product to voice your concerns, it will be too late for them to mean anything. The entire point of criticizing the games many flaws is in the hopes that they can be changed before the game is finalized for release. A demo can tell you plenty about the trajectory of a...

    Are the Renders well made?

    The characters in Sm4sh look really, really good. It's one of the game's strongest points by far. All the characters pop out at you and have a really clean look.

    Poll - How Satisfied with the Roster are you? *Post-E3*

    I think Palutena looks pretty awesome. The very idea of custom movesets is just super-cool to me, and Palutena's all look really useful (except for that heavenly light thing - god knows the lag on it will be atrocious).

    Poll - How Satisfied with the Roster are you? *Post-E3*

    I'm disappointed with the complete lack of villains in the roster, as well as the omission of several characters that are perfect fits for a Smash game (Wonder-Red being a pretty obvious one).

    Gameplay Feedback: Will the Smash Wii U/3DS mechanics receive changes?

    I don't know the perspective of the media (I should say, the "old media"); I've only spoken to other gamers for the most part. I have, however, read two articles from prominent sources that I can remember which criticized the game-play for an apparent lack of depth. What I do know is that...

    Gameplay Feedback: Will the Smash Wii U/3DS mechanics receive changes?

    I suspect there will be a fairly significant difference in the build we played at E3/Best Buy and the final product released at the end of this year. I wish I could read Japanese to see how the Japanese fanbase is reacting to the game in its current state, as I imagine Sakurai is much more...
