What bothers me about all this is the lack of voice chat. No, handing it off to a cell phone app does not count. And here's why: It's a step backward for Nintendo. Not just the industry in general, but Nintendo in particular. The Wii U had video chat built in. I expect its successor to have at...

Hell, remind me how we got to 159 pages with only one real leak? (I'm counting Ken as a real leak, denying it at this point requires incredible amounts of skepticism in the face of overwhelming evidence)

Sorry, this has been bugging me for a while and while it doesn't hurt much of anything... I wanna talk about it anyway. People are using the word 'theory' incorrectly a lot in this thread. A theory is something that has been scientifically tested and proven to be accurate within our current...

Edit: Ninja'ed by MainJPW. To answer the "who leaves debug stuff in publicity materials" question: Sakurai. Sakurai has done it on at least one occasion. At one point, Falco's exhibition video on the Smash website had little bits of hitbox debug info dangling around on-screen. It was hard to...

As far as "Why only Ken" goes... there are an infinite number of scenarios that explain it. The most obvious one would be "only had a split-second to safely grab ONE piece of evidence, grabbed whatever was right in front of them and ran with it." Another could be "leaker wants to create a news...

Couldn't tell you, re: Banjo. As for believing the Ken leak? Yes, I do. COULD it be fake? Certainly. However, look at the sheer number of details the image got right. Feet clip through sloped floors. The shadows are very close to identical in the 're-creation from the demo' image versus what...

As much as I think this would be fun, I'm pretty sure the whole 'changing to 5v5 for finals' would be met with a LOT of resistance... and sometimes for good reason. 1: Time. This would cause those sets to take longer. Smash tournaments already tend to throw venue plans into disarray since they...

You joke, but I would legitimately cheer for Sailor Moon. The universe could use more heroes like her, guided by love and justice and sparkles and ribbons and etc. etc.

...Make them... switch characters... when they... lose a stock? What am I missing here that makes this an unusual response to the problem? The way I'm seeing it, we just run things King of Fighters style; lose a character, you must play as another character on your team. Seems easy enough.

I stand corrected. That is easily fixed by enforcing a "you must pick different characters in each slot and must use all your characters" rule, in any case.

...How? Doubles would still exist. This would just be a different format for 1 on 1 play. Your university club seems like they need to get Ds and Fs for critical reasoning. (I misunderstood. Post redacted.)

So, since first posting in this thread I've played and completed Order of Ecclesia. I have to join those who say Shanoa would be a really fun pick. There's no way she or Yoko are happening (too many "who the hell is Shanoa/Yoko" responses from the average gamer), but they would be nice...

Except Geno isn't available in a fighting game custom tailored for his mechanics. Octolings aren't (to our best current knowledge) available in a fighting game custom tailored for their mechanics. Sora isn't in a fighting game custom tailored for his mechanics. Goku, Goku, Goku, and Goku...

I think he meant 'painful.' In any case, I'd really like to see Squad Strike start off as a standard format for tournaments. It offers tons of advantages, and will help us make better use of this roughly 70 character (at current count) roster!
