Well, as we all know, the Internet is chok full of entitled, inconsiderate jerkoffs. I'm always glad to come back to SWF for intelligent conversation and some frickin brain recharge, man! :shades:

Seriously though, when I watched Sakurai play three characters with two hands, I knew he was a man I could totally respect, even outside of his irresistible awesome levels and genius-level design tactics.

:love:

Edit: Hold the ****ing phone, he posted something fascinating!

Ugh! Stupid image hating phone!

Pilot wings?!

Totally didn't expect that. Now is it a stage or a background or...something.

Wow I honestly don't know what to make of this. Pilot Wings honestly rustled my jimmies because i was too young to figure out how to play it.

It's based on Pilotwings for SNES:




If this confirms a Pilotwings-character though, then I think thi is getting bit tiring... I have to yet see characters that truly excite me (preference or not).

I mean I guess Sakurai would go all the way and fill this game with characters none expected/wanted to see, but I think it leaves fans bit out on the cold (aside from MegaMan)

Trust me, Sakurai doesn't give the characters you want. Sakurai gives you the characters that you didn't know you wanted.

You're letting yourself break down, man. Just as Sakurai planned.
Remember, a confirmed stage doesn't mean a confirmed fighter.

I think this is going to be another "move around" stage, if it's actually a stage, which I'm pretty excited about I mean Delfino Plaza was a great stage and seeing how there might be more like that is pretty nice.

Is it just me or does this stage look like the communist flag with the hammer's head being on the top right. New hammer confirmed ? :troll:

I know, but I don't think it'd be wise to rule the possibility of that either after Miss Fit.

(Also can we stop treating him like a troll)

He's not a troll, he's a damn genius. I'll never say Sakurai is a troll. [mainly because I hate what that word has become, in the first place]
But WFT was a great curve ball to get everyone confused, and I salute him for that.

Well...this is interesting.

How on earth are we supposed to fight here, assuming it's a stage?

For all we know it could be like brawls Masterpieces. If you don't remember it allowed you to play classic games on brawl for a limited amount of time.

Look, he's definitely a genius. But he's also undeniably a troll. Not with as much negative connotation as I think you're giving the word, but a troll nonetheless.

COOL BUT HOW DO I FIGHT ON THAT
You don't, this is a character reveal, duh. PilotwingsSNES (the entire game) for SM4SH

This brings back a lot of memories. Me and my cousin used to play Pilotwings all the time at his house (largely because he only had 4 games) and we both sucked horrifically at it. For the skydiving part, we'd always deliberately miss the target and screamed like Peewee Herman all the way down. :laugh:

This is pretty cool. I never played Pilotwings (any of them), but the fact that he made a stage (assuming its a stage) out of the original version, rather than the contemporary one is something of a breath of fresh air, for a lack of a better term. Awesome to see something that doesn't have a secondary meaning of product placement, especially the day after I made a comment on how it seems like everything's based on modern and only modern.

Not that I had any reason to doubt. Every Smash game, in spite of their individual, yet minor downsides, I've always seen as flawless, more or less.

I always saw pilotwings 64 in the store but passed up on it. I gotta stop judging sh#@ by its cover/name.
From what I gather it combines free roaming and mini games like a retro version of Go Vacation.
Man, Sakurai you motherf#@$#@ how do you keep including the ips that we overlooked!?!
And how do you keep ignoring the ips that we want!?!
However even I recognized that island just from one look. I guess that he knows who people easily recognize but overlooked, like the wii fit trainer and villager. Unless he's trying to go for a super obscure title.
Or maybe he just includes every game Shigeru Miyamoto produced. High hopes for Chibi Robo then.

I'm interested to read what Sakurai wrote concerning this image on MiiVerse.

Nvm, it has what he wrote on the front page.

My theory: this is the background to a stage, which may either be a generic one with stage hazards, or a scrolling one like Delfino Plaza.

What this really confirms is, despite the whole emphasis on handheld games for 3ds and consoles for wii u, that it doesn't strictly mean in a modern contemporary sense. He's showing us he hasn't forgot the retro, and that he won't forget the past.

Yeah, he must recover!

Am I the only one who remembers that not all stages in Brawl correspond to a character? Take for example PictoChat, we didn't get an artist guy who draws attacks, that's Kirby territory anyhow. My guess is we just get a Pilot Wings stage, because that map isn't even an ATTEMPT at reimagining anything other than higher quality colors. I am certain we won't be getting a horizontally 2D character, and a vertically 2D one would just look like Mode 7, which probably isn't happening. His recovery would also break the game.

Huh. Well I wonder if he's gonna leave us hanging or show us what it's a part of tomorrow.
I wish we had a stage list. Even if it was just a zoomed out pic and what franchise it's from.

Also, to the people who are already rolling on the floor freaking out, just because there's a Pilotwings stage doesn't mean there will be a Pilotwings character (although Mii is still completely plausible). Keep in mind that Brawl had Pictochat, Hanebow, and Smashville without representative characters and the sake of this stage is probably to just add more variety to the types of stages overall.
