I'm not arguing, just showing you where I got my love for Jumpman from.
I see where you're coming from, but Jumpman is still Mario. Period.


Now can we talk about something fresh and new? Inklings would make a great character with their paintball guns. I can definitely see some kind of trap/stage control character from it and it does have potential to make a great character. Question is...what would their final smash be from what we know of so far?

It would be nice if the actual Inkling conversation is longer than 5 posts. Most topics I see last very short unless it's an argument.
I encourage deep discussion and actual listening to one's posts.

All we need is simply someone who hates the Inklings to cause an argument. That should spice it up :troll:

I honestly am not sure exactly if they should do the paint the floor/wall and do their Blooper mode thing to crawl/walk faster. It could be too much complications if not done correctly. I can't imagine 8 Inklings doing this on the same screen

*shrugs*

The Ink-Nuke seen in the first trailer would be cool. It could work like an Uber-SmartBomb.

If it's a discussion you're looking for...


I still think he's a very strong candidate for DLC. Not only has the fake leak given him publicity in regards to Smash (he's ranking in the top ten-five on various polls) but just his appearance as a trophy already means he has his foot in the door.

He already has the full potential to be one of the most unique additions to Smash, even among the Smash 4 newcomers. Most arguments I see against him are just people being biased against Ubisoft itself rather than Rayman. There's never really been that many real discussions about him aside from when people thought he was actually going to be in the game.

I think the reason is because lots of people say Ubisoft is neglecting Nintendo:ohwell: I like rayman though

I still want one of Rayman's victory animations to involve kicking a Rabbid in his fluffy soft booty as a sort of "Take that!" to the Raving Rabbids games (and the terrible Nick show). I think that alone would be a good reason why anyone would want to play as Rayman.

Rayman is still possible...

But what about characters that were cut in development?

Bowser Joonya himself almost got cut near the end, as we all know. Who's to say there isn't more like him in some SORA computer?

Mewtwo, Wolf, Lucas, DK rep Dixie Kong, K. Rool and Isaac, maybe? I've always figured that if we got more DLC characters it would be of characters who were planned, but didn't make the cut due to time.

How do we know he was almost cut? Did I miss something?

Inkling should pummel by constricting the opponent with its tentacle hair.

And also it should flash dem teeth in its victory pose because holy **** they're adorable. And terrifying. In equal measure. And that bandit / raccoon mask thing which is pretty nifty.

No comments on my Inklings moveset ideas eh? Apparently people like the ideas, but nothing to add.

That's too bad.

Honestly, while I love them in concept, I'm gonna have to wait 'til I play the game before I can offer feedback on movesets and stuff.

There's still a lot about this game we don't know, so it's all up in the air right now.

Well, it's hard for a moveset to elicit more than a "Cool, I guess" response, and Likes serve that purpose well. *shrug*

I find it amusing that people wrote off a goop-based moveset as "not needed" or "way less interesting" when Bowser Jr. didn't use it, but are now cycling around back to it when the Splatoon Squid shows the potential to use it.

Still want to actually wait for the game to be released and evaluated before determining "it needs a rep because it's new." Maybe it'll be the new Pikmin, maybe most people won't even remember it in a few years. Time will tell.

Octolings > Inklings

Discuss.
The Thing cannot be described - there is no language for such abysms of shrieking and immemorial lunacy, such eldritch contradictions of all matter, force, and cosmic order. A mountain walked or stumbled ... the pursuing jelly which rose above the unclean froth like the stern of a daemon galleon. The awful squid-head with writhing feelers ... a bursting as of an exploding bladder, a slushy nastiness as of a cloven sunfish, a stench as of a thousand opened graves ... I have looked upon all that the universe has to hold of horror, and even the skies of spring and the flowers of summer must ever afterward be poison to me. But I do not think my life will be long. As my uncle went, as poor Johansen went, so I shall go.

Sure, they're neat too~

Q4 2016? That is a long long wait.

But I like the rumour already, true or not.

Considering the game isn't out yet, we can't completely decide yet can we?

While I prefer Henry Fleming as a "new upcoming ip" character but I can see the inklings growing on me once I actually play the game.

something something repping.

Single-handedly slapping down Sakurai's "no guns" policy~ :3

I only support the Inklings only because they are very unique and because I'm pretty hyped for Splatoon.
I'll really support them 100% if I manage to grab and try the game for myself.

No guns?
:snake:,:wolf:,:4falcon:,:4falco:,:4fox:,:4duckhunt:,:4miigun:,:4samus:, and:4zss:

I could do this all day. :4wario2:
Dang it. >w<;;

You are correct. I believe the actual caveat was no realistic guns.

There is quite a difference.

And Inkling / Fleming still wouldn't fit that criteria, as their guns are silly and playful.

But I do appreciate you correcting my wee oversight.

Thanks~ :3

The moment of truth is tomorrow nintendo has a tendency of announcing directs 1 day before it happens

The only con with the rumor is its from 4chan

The ESRB one was the leak that showed up on 4chan.
The Ninka leak originated on Smashboards in my Smash 4 Leaks group.
Both leaks aren't the same, but they are connected to each other.

I should know, it's what got me to join this site in the first place.
Ok then.

Esrb from 4chan but ninka is connected too it which started here


Ok the. Nintendo announces directs 1 day before so we will see if real or not.
