Event - E3 Invitational 2014 E3 2014 speculation: Any more to come?

[ActionHankBeard]

Wish these guys would ask about the veterans. Could care less about the menu style.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

my gosh will someone in the press just ask about snakes fate? Questions about menu designs just aint cutting it

I very much doubt if someone asked ''Is Snake back?"

Sakurai would even answer unless he had a trailer prepared for him to be revealed that day.

 

[Xpinkbean]

A competitive Smash player is trying to challenge Sakurai to see if he can win and help balance the game. Sakurai asked "have you ever made a game? LOL

 

[kylexv]

Well... yeah. That's not unreasonab-- oh, I forgot I'm on smashboards...

Anyway, what the hell are you guys going on about Dark Pit?

People are saying that Dark Pit is confirmed, but he isn't.

And this is my 300th post.

Lmao

 

[Aogami]

Gamexplain is live blogging and they've said nothing about Dark Pit so it is BS.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

Sakurai ignored a comment about the Ice Climbers. He's not just going to go ''YES, SURE HE'S BACK, SHE'S BACK, THEY'RE ALL BACK."

This isn't Oprah designing the game guys.

I actually do care about menus. I found surprising how those menus are so simple (the melee one got into my head pretty quickly).

 

[Reila]

But it really is. >_<

Yes, but some people get really defensive when you mention this.

 

[EmceeEspio]

Actually Dark Pit was just confirmed and im not talking about the Palutena reveal trailer. He was confirmed by ****ing Sakurai. I'm not mad he's in but the fact Sakurai just confirmed that he wants to keep the roster small and balanced with a total of 10 newcomers is complete bull****! Idc about this game anymore, despite the fact I loved it last year at E3. Check out this link to see for yourself

Don't see a link. Source please, waiter.

it would at least put him on the spot to say no if he is indeed gone

 

[mygamecube]

Apparently G&W is only semi-confirmed, much like C. Falcon. He was only a demonstration to point out that he existed before Pacman.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

He wouldn't answer that either most likely. I really doubt being put on the spot would be thing he'd respect. It'd probably anger him.

 

[DraginHikari]

Here's the thing about the questions these are members of the press asking questions not direct fans, the thing is often times the press uses these type of questions because they know they're going to at least get an answer out of him. They aren't going to ask about unannounced characters are they are unlikely to get an answer.

I felt the burn from that one all the way over here.

 

[tmrd]

not even against pac-man haha but I laughed at the relevence of this picture right now

A: All of the characters to consider were on our internal roster from the beginning of development. We had a slot for a new Pokemon reserved, but did not way for X and Y. We decided to use Greninja well before X/Y came out, based on early reference drawings.

This is interesting.

 

[Neo Zero]

So Greninja was picked because he was new and he looked cool? So much for market research lol.

Wonder what it means for Gematsu

LOL where is that guy who insisted Greninja was chosen because it was popular (it wasn't, not before the announcement for Smash)?

 

[Snagrio]

Greninja was chosen purely from early reference drawings and way before X/Y came out.

Weird...

 

[tmrd]

"Most characters decided at start of development including pacman and Greninja, predating X and Y's release"

Well THAT knocks down Sal's leak a peg or two tbh, since loads of people thought that "Pokemon from X/Y" was so unspecific due to not being decided yet..

 

[Deleted member]

So the most popular gen VI starter was picked by sheer chance and off of his reference art? What are the odds?

Yeah, i was wondering about that. I remember him saying that all the characters were already chosen a LOOOOOONG time ago, before a lot of other things were decided, and when Greninja was released, I wondered how early X and Y were being worked on.

 

[aldelaro5]

WAIT LAST QUESTION?

you're hiding something don't you?

 

[Sonsa]

OH MY GOSH I JUST...I just imagined Kirby after eating Pac-Man... scary stuff...

 

[Wander]

Interesting that they plan the roster that far out in advance.

But sure, let's get on Miiverse and beg him to add Shadow and Goku at the last minute.

You don't have to be a genius to know Greninja would be the most popular judging by its, Delphox and Chesnaught's designs.

I mean, I love Delphox, it is my favorite Pokémon, but its design screams "divisive".

Chesnaught... no comments.

 

[domokl]

Isn't this 90 minutes. How is this the las question? Weird………

well who knows. he may have just had old information from before Greninja was a big name, or when Greninja was purely concept

 

[SomewhatMystia]

I'd imagine more demonstration.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

Suppose to last till 8:30PT.

So there's gotta be something at the end there.

 

[Snagrio]

I thought this session was 90 minutes long. Maybe there's more announcements during the last 15 minutes?

IT'S A CONSPIRACY!!!
