Houston Smash Ultimate Thread

[UltimateRazer]

So where is the rest of Houston? We have no more players or what?

 

[RT]

Probably not until Smash 4 comes out.

 

[Xyro77]

Nintendo Direct incoming at 4pm today. New smash character and wiiu games coming out between feb-may 2014.

Eh, I predict Diddy...or maybe a playable demo? That would be nice...

Or maybe Ice Climbers. Because **** logic.

 

[Xyro77]

i hope its not diddy. this new DK game is offering 2 new characters so i hope 1 of the 2 make it in. i HATE diddy and his anti competitive smash bananas.

 

[RT]

Diddy will be in Smash 4 regardless if he confirmed today or not. It would be like removing Luigi or Falco, it won't happen.

 

[KRDsonic]

What's wrong with removing Falco?

 

[Xyro77]

luigi has been in 3 games....now 4. he is ancient gen.
falco has been in 2 game.....prob will be 3. he is old gen.
diddy has been in ONE game. we simply dont know if he will return. he is a new gen.

Smash is really about advertising relevant/upcoming franchises, similar to what Marvel vs Capcom does, minus the oddball/retro characters.

Diddy has been in Donkey Kong Country (both old and new), in a few Mario Karts, is a pretty popular character, and a new game that is coming out soon...and you think he won't return?

Riiiiiiiiiiiiight...

Sakurai said "not all characters will return"

we already know ALL of the original 12 ssb64 characters will based off of the previous 3 games. Diddy is FAR more likely to not return than someone like luigi or link or pika....ect. diddy has simply not been in enough smash games to be "locked in" and you know this.

 

[Xyro77]

I hope this is in smash 4

 

[RT]

Good lord, I should learn Diddy in Smash 4 and use only him against you just so you can be mad 24/7.

Also, Olimar and Lucario weren't going to return...right guys? Despite them having games released that guaranteed their relevance, right guys...?

 

[IsmaR]

I love Diddy as a character but was pretty disappointed with his execution in Smash. I'd also think it's boring if he's all we get today.

 

[RT]

To be fair, there weren't a lot of moves to incorporate from the Country games.

They had his idle animation, his cartwheel attack, his falling animation during those wind levels...Sakurai just borrowed a few references from other DK games and made up the rest.

 

[IsmaR]

I liked the DKC and 64 fanservice, just not how they wound up working.

The Peanut Popgun looked awesome in the SSE/his Final Smash but was meh otherwise.

And I woulda preferred if his cartwheel attack didn't have so much ending lag.

My complaints about diddy have never changed. from day 1 to now its been the same.

No one said olimar/lucario were not going to return. we just though lucario would be replaced with another mewtwo-ish version. olimar we kinda already knew would return.

 

[RT]

But they weren't "locked in" as you put it.

And now you insist there is a chance Diddy won't return?

Just...no

 

[Xyro77]

Just...no

there is ALWAYS a chance for any character to not return (besides locked in characters like mario). Lucario/olimar/diddy.....ect all have a chance. this is not hard to understand

 

[UltimateRazer]

Diddy might be announced WITH Dixie as a tag team character. This would eliminate bananas if you press down B to tag out like they did in DKC.

i would like this idea

 

[Xyro77]

is it possible to watch the ND on my wiiU? my stupid laptop is slow as F

my wiiu is 89x faster in everyway

 

[RT]

Given your terrible computer history, I'm surprised you have't uninstalled Windows entirely.

I did that on my old laptop i used for TOing long ago. When i tried to reinstal it the computer said it didnt have enough memory.

now answer my question PLEASE

 

[RT]

Why do I have the feeling your next computer will just burst into flames?

 

[Xyro77]

Because i am magical.

 

[RT]

You're a walking computer virus.

 

[Fliphopper]

Was there anything on Smash? I didn't see anything.

Just saw Little Mac's video. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

 

[RT]

Something about some NES boxer, not sure...

 

[Xyro77]

Already knew this was coming. Looks like each one of his Moves counter or have super armor.

He also has some sort of ability kinda like lucario. The more damage he takes the easier it is to KO.


Stupid.

 

[RT]

It's probably the more you dodge or the more damage you deal, the more the meter builds up.

You have to think in terms of the Punch Out games.

 

[Xyro77]

If it's true that you can KO at 26%, I'm done.

 

[Pikabunz]

Ban Ganondorf.

 

[RT]

Ban Ike and Roy.

 

[IsmaR]

Ban the ledge.

 

[RT]

I don't have the screencap, but if you watch the trailer, Bowser is at 231% when the screen zooms back out. This implies that he has to do damage in order to charge the meter. In other words, you are getting rewarded for doing a lot of damage. It isn't even known if the meter naturally goes back down on its own.

This could mean Little Mac rewards aggressive players.

Or I could be totally wrong. No one knows for sure yet except for the Smash team.

You're whining and panicking over a lack of details.

 

[Xyro77]

I'm not saying anything is confirmed.

Noticed how I said "if" in my initial statement? Do you know what "if" means?

Seems like YOU are rushing to judge.

 

[RT]

Nope, I find it to be an interesting ability.

 

[UltimateRazer]

I'm pretty sure that it's like a super charged fsmash and does a lot more knock back. But like RT said, Bowser was at 231% when hit. It'll probably be able to kill light weights by the edge at like 50 or 60 if he even gets the hit.

Anyways, as a Snake player (strong ground game), Little Mac looks amazing and fun to play. But his air game worries me greatly lol. He looks like a double edged sword.

 

[Xyro77]

Of course you would. You liked aura.

It's fun when you trap yourself.
