Least favorite thing: The game engine is irrefutably inferior to melee when it comes to competitive play.

Favorite thing: The ability to patch in more competitive mechanics, but that won't happen...

Pros: 8-player Smash, Rosalina, reveal trailers, "I'm really feeling it", Takamaru's sexy new model.

Cons: Smash Tour, no Lucas, Classic "they changed it, so it sucks" Mode, and FYI Takamaru's is an Assist Trophy.

Pros: Shulk, WAY better balance, and 8-player Smash.

Cons: How the game supports camping (Rosalina, Olimar) just as much as offensive play.

Oh, add Mii Fighters to the pros. Freakin' Mii Fighters. I hated them when they were announced. Now I can't stop making they fight. I am guilty of making a ton of manga-related Mii Fighters. I need more outfits!

Add the lack of a Comet Observatory stage and Mona Pizza's Song being cut to the cons.

I'll take a shot at it.

YES!


- :4pit: :4palutena: :4lucina: :4robinf: :4rob: :4ludwig: :4duckhunt: :4drmario: :4shulk: :4miisword:
- Online mode is good for practice
- MASTEEEER COOOORE~! <3
- Much more balanced than previous games
- Faster and more exciting than Brawl
- Custom moves
- Smash Run
- Great stage selection, in particular Kalos Pokémon League, Town & City, Arena Ferox and Boxing Ring
- No character feels too good or too poor
- Music player is a godsend
- Can listen to music on the go
- Challenges are fun and diverse
- Plenty of game modes
- DLC
- Pretty graphics
- Plenty of replay value
- Keeps fresh with new fighters and series

NUH-UH!

- A lot of the game modes aren't actually all that fun
- Smash Tour is immensely sub-par
- Omega Mode limits For Glory
- Wolf and Lucas are missing
- No option to toggle on / off stage hazards
- No option to play with customs without equipment / vice-versa
- Some challenges are just obnoxiously hard
- Some characters feel imbalanced (Little Mac, Donkey Kong)
- Could use more content from Metroid, Donkey Kong, Wario Land, newer Kirby, etc.
- Bosses are intrusive
- Online is spotty at the best of times
- Why can't I send messages online?!
- Some items are just broken (Gust Bellows, Beetle)
- A lot of characters are poorly or unfairly depicted (Wario, Little Mac, Ridley, Chrom)

Otherwise I'm good. :3

Like: I really, really love how Bowser is viable in Smash 4.
Dislike: Samus still is in serious need of buffing, the new Classic Mode.

Like: Shulk and Mewtwo are in this game, Amazing soundtrack, Improved online.
Dislike: Classic Mode (Master Fortress barely makes up for it), Smash Tour, Nerfed Marth. Multiplayer settings always defaults to 2 minutes (seriously?)

Favorite:
  • :4myfriends::4robinm::4shulk::4tlink::4lucario:and :4zelda: in one game! :D
  • Online had a complete overhaul compared to Brawl (at least in the Wii U version)
  • 8 player Smash!
  • Custom moves!
  • Music selection is sublime
  • More Co-Op options!
  • Great balance between Melee and Brawl
What I dislike:
  • :snake:and :wolf: getting cut
  • this guy being top tier > :4diddy: hated him in Brawl, hate him even more now
  • Having the RNG rewards heavily skewered towards useless equipment; I'm still trying to collect all the hats :glare:
  • Implementing 8P in stages that are waaaaay too small (Onett, Kongo Jungle 64, etc)
  • Overhauls of certain modes were awful (Classic Mode, Breaking the Targets, Coin Blast)
  • Most of the events are all stupidly hard (not like the fun ones that were abundant in Melee/Brawl), and some being downright evil *glares at Aura Mastery event* :mad:
  • Omega Mode being the only option in For Glory
  • No option to turn off hazards/bosses
  • No deep or interesting SP mode a la Subspace Emissary/Adventure Mode
  • Smash Run not only stuck on the 3DS version but also not having online functionality
  • Smash Tour is plain boring and terrible
  • The hate for clone characters
  • This guy being the only fighter with 16 alts for some stupid reason >:4littlemac:

Favorites:
+The graphics. OMG, them graphics.
+The music, OMG, that music.
+How most of the vets got buffs.
+They nailed the physics this time round.
+These newcomers are...interesting to say the least.
+Bringing back Doc. I never knew how much I missed Doc Mario till I actually played as him. Black Market Dr. Mario Master Race.
+Rosalina. That's all.
+Jigglypuff. Never has she been more fun.
+This is the only game where I actually picked up a new character. Two, as a matter of fact. Rosalina and Mega Man.
Negatives
-The controls. Worst. C-Stick. Ever. The one reason why I prefer Brawl over this one.
-The roster is disgusting. 3 clones, and the cutting of Wolf, who was like, a quarter-clone? Maybe. And Duck Hunt Dog? Why?
-The complete disregard of Isaac. Two pieces of music. That's it. Wonder ****ing Red got a trophy but not Isaac? Or Felix? Or Matthew?
-No Story Mode.
-Weak Single Player
-Where is Wolf and why is Dark Pit here?
-No customs in FG.
-Shiek.

Favorites:
- shiny new graphics
- Master Core (watching that happen on stream was mind-blowing)
- the thought behind Omega mode (I can appreciate that)
- the thought behind the new ledge mechanics (something to cut down on planking? All of my yes)
- Bowser Jr
- no tripping
- better balance in general

Least favorites:
- no grab armor
- bad ledge mechanics (I don't mind going for the gimp, but I often can't even get it because of the launch angles
---- ledge trumping is good on paper, but it isn't necessary at all, or wouldn't be with a more strict ledge invincibility system

Made me post before I was finished:
- very little shield stun
- less characters able to play aggressively or space well with aerials due to increased endlag/startup
- simple issues like Dedede's gordos getting reflected by any 2% attack and DK going into freefall after Giant Punch
--- Nintendo passed out more nerfs than buffs; I was led to expect that everyone would feel like a solid character
- vast differences in general mobility making it very tough to catch people who just want to run the clock
- no ability to turn off stage hazards
- has potential to be the best Smash game with patches, but is incredibly unlikely that Nintendo will listen to much of anyone and will attempt to balance by statistics rather than actually identifying the problems/minor gripes

- Do I seriously need to unlock Smashville

And lastly and MOST IMPORTANTLY, Wario's new fsmash is dumb.
All the rest are forgiveable, but dang it, they didn't do Wario any justice; they even named Stonecarving City from Wario Land: Shake It! "Ruins".

Theres a lot of good things I can say about the game, it is easily my favorite game in the series since 64 to play, and the most overall fun single player. My favorite thing is the Music, it's ****ing amazing. The roster is ****ing incredible. 8 player is genius. Events are the best in the series. Crazy orders is a lot of fun. Game is ****ing amazing...aside from a few small decisions that bother me...

Smash Tour. Like actually the worst thing ever, holy **** **** that thing. Then you force yourself to play all 3 modes for Pac-Land only to get the WORST STAGE EVER. Everything to do with Smash Tour SUCKS! I also dislike the lack of new stages, especially since some series only have returning stages. I know Mother and F-zero have new stages in the 3ds version, but every series should have at LEAST one new stage in the WiiU version. Heck Game and Watch did not get a new stage in EITHER VERSION! Like wtf is that? Also still no Gyromite/Stackup stage for ROB. Overall the stage roster is good, but could of been better. Also Roster cuts hurt whether I use the character or not. Wolf was my least used character in Brawl/PM according to records page, but losing him still hurts, like a member of the family is missing. Only exception is Snake, I feel no connection ti Third Parties, sorry.

I like many others feel the 3ds version kinda damaged the WiiU version's potential a bit so I am begging for DLC to happen, Smash needs it to keep things fresh for years to come. Having new characters every year would benefit the community greatly.

If only Smash Tour had online. Then it wouldn't feel like such an unnecessary gimmick.

That and maybe it would've been cool to have an Adventure Mode but I'm not mad.

If I had to say what I like, basically everything else.
