Character Discussion Thread

[ChunkyBeef]

Hold on a moment, I just realized. I thought for a bit that the most recent PotD was going to be unrelated to the direct, but there's golden characters in the new stage shown off, which could hint at Isaac's possible appearance.
though this could have been mentioned earlier, i have a feeling that my spirit animal is a snail or something.

I think you might be looking into that a bit too deeply, unfortunately. It's an altered state exclusive to that particular level.

Though, hey, who knows? We'll know within the next hour or six.

 

[Cobalsh]

One hour 'til Smash. Get hyped.

 

[TitanTeaTime]

Nah, not really. If Isaac is playable, expect him to be an unlockable character.

yeah, it's a bit of a stretch I'll admit. But it's all the relevance I could get aside from being from a mario game.
i just realized, wario is a much more obvious link derp

 

[Cobalsh]

Half an hour until news. Keeping the countdown is my unofficial job now.

Let me join you in these job, mate!, 22 mins left

 

[TitanTeaTime]

inb4 Nintendo announces a new IP and one of the characters announced is from that.

 

[Cobalsh]

So, with time to kill, here's an idea: Make a redesigned Takamaru with a combination of classic Takkie and Mitsurugi from Soul Calibur.

 

[Maxilian]

5 mins til we get more info!

 

[AncientTobacco]

Alright, I've got my popcorn and beer; I'm ready.

 

[Cobalsh]

AND E3 IS A GO!

 

[Weeman]

Robot chicken?

 

[TitanTeaTime]

Mii already confirmed.
And strangely I don't hate it

 

[Sausage Zeldas]

Welp. Miis confirmed.

Wait, I spoke too soon.

Or did I?

 

[FalKoopa]

Miis confirmed, I guess.

 

[Weeman]

Well there goes the online.

 

[Sausage Zeldas]

LINCOLN GETS SWORN IN.
SSB4 BEST GAME.

 

[Weeman]

October is not summer as far as i'm aware

 

[Godzillathewonderdog]

Alright, I ****ing love what they're doing with Mii's. Never doubt Sakurai's moveset making skills. I really hope Mii's aren't the only character reveals though...

 

[Sausage Zeldas]

Wait, so is Amiibo basically DLC? Or are there no CPU fighters normally? My video is skipping around.


Smash Bros. returns at 4:00 PST, yes?



OH HEY THERE PALUTENA. WHAT'S UP, HOW YOU DOIN'?

 

[Maxilian]

Palutena confirmed!

 

[BKupa666]

Well, the Mii looks as awful as everyone predicted...generic punches and kicks, generic sword-fighting, and generic projectile usage, all wrapped up in a horrid package of wasted development time.

Palutena, however, looks fantastic, as well as quite similar to the leaked pictures of her. Major congratulations to all her fans.

 

[Autumn ♫]

LADY PALUTENA!! *Those are tears of joy.

 

[Maxilian]

I'm ok with the Miis, and Palutena... well... I'm really happy

 

[Starcutter]

What was that dark pit tease?

And fills up three spots

Fingers crossed for just a costume change

 

[Sausage Zeldas]

Some of the stuff doesn't look so generic. Especially the bit of Gunner battling they just showed in the Amiibo thing going on right now.

 

[UltimateWario]

Mii looks infinitely more interesting than Palutena.

They both look pretty boring, though.

 

[BKupa666]

And fills up three spots

Hence it being a waste of development time...it's essentially Pokemon Trainer if Pokemon Trainer were lifeless and generic.

 

[Maxilian]

What was that dark pit tease?

Don't think so, most likely reference to Pit skin but nothing more

Hence it being a waste of development time...it's essentially Pokemon Trainer if Pokemon Trainer were lifeless and generic.

Well i'm pretty sure a lot of people will enjoy using the Miis

 

[Rockaphin]

Kind of hoping to see some other characters as neither really hyped me.
Honestly, the best part was Reggie vs Iwata.
Anyway, congrats to all those who really supported Mii's and Palutena.

Hopefully we'll see something after the tournament.
I want to know Ridley's true fate and King K. Rool's.

 

[zauberdragon]

So we've got 2 characters today (4 if you want to include all the mii versions but bare with me) as we did last E3. Surely the tournament tonight will announce another character? They announced Wii Fit Trainer at a much smaller event last E3.

 

[Starbound]

Reminder that we may see more later today so watch the Smash Bros dojo.

 

[Niala]

What was that dark pit tease?

I really think it was.

 

[queenrosetta]

I was excited for the miis until they said three spots. That rubbed me the wrong way. But I'm sure they'll be somewhat enjoyable. I think palutena a looked great! But seemed a bit like Zelda. We will see how she turns out

Edit: oh autocorrect lol

So, major congratulations to Palutena fans, but not Mii fans? Well, aren't you a pompous ****. The Mii's look great, better than most of the series' clones. So I think it's time for you to get off your pedestal and deal with it.




Damn, that felt good.

 

[Substitution]

So, I guess I was wrong about Miis.
Guess I have to eat my hat now...

 

[FinalStarmen]

I send my condolences to the guy who bet on his account there was only one newcomer left to show off (Chrom, I believe).

 

[GunGunW]

Initially, I thought I read they were going to have another live stream dedicated to only Smash Bros, then I learned that this was the only one, and it made me feel much more depressed.

 

[Autumn ♫]

Honestly, the Mii's look alot better than I thought they would, and I love how Sakurai approached them.

Miiverse: We want Abraham Lincoln and Reggie playable!

Sakurai: Okay, here's the Mii! Now everyone's in Smash!

 

[Substitution]

Though admittedly, I'm not too angry over the customization.
It simply means I can do stupid things with Miis. And that's always a good thing.
