YES!!!Conker vs. Marcus in an epic chainsaw clash!
DOUBLE YES!!!
Oh... I already knew that for awhile, now. God damn name is too long...
It's true that I was thinking that third-party characters fit mostly into the 3rd party category than any other one (though 3rd parties bring in massive hype anyway), but I think some characters could fit into more than one category. Such as Little Mac, who could fit into the revival character spot and the popular character spot. Some of the characters above though I truly feel are more likely as unlockables (especially Mewtwo and Roy) and thus will probably not be used as hype, although I agree most of those would generate massive amounts.
And technically Toon Link, although I don't know why I'm helping your argument.
I meant newer than Pikmin, which all but S&P is (and I guess Golden Sun by two months
), but I never really made that clear, and I do agree with characters less than a decade old are sparse, but we still have Mii, Shulk, Zoroark, Krom, Palutena (who I'm counting for some reason), Dillon (who at this point is unlikely, but could get likelier with more games) and Miyamoto's new IP as characters made in the decade before Smash's release. And I still think that picking just one of those for a trailer would work fine. (if someone like Isaac, Starfy, or Saki weren't picked, who I guess aren't "new" characters, but newer than a great portion of the roster).
I'm sure he does, but either way, I am just saying there is an impact.
Not entirely the same thing. XD But mmkay.
Assumption, some of these people have said that on this very site. From other sites it is hard to confirm.
I'm not saying Sony's game has those advantages. I do think that is obvious that Nintendo is more suited for the "All-Star" like fighting games. Even though I don't recognize the faces too much, they don't seem very interesting for me to know.
Well, some really experienced developers have gotten together and made this game that have knowledge of competitive games prior to this one, so I find it hard to dismiss so easily.
Wavedashing was accidental, they simply just left it in the game. But more to the point, it can't really be denied that Brawl is more casual. ^^; Not sure what you're trying to get across here.
I'm not saying it is more original. I still think SSB > Sony's game, I'm just making observations and hoping/speculating that this may have an effect. I'll drop the subject here though.
Yeah definitely, which is why I think we'll get a new third party character revealed with the first trailer, I just meant comparing Nintendo character popularity to other Nintendo characters. I realize that someone like Megaman would bring more hype than any Nintendo character would.@ ChaosKid
Very few characters create the hype of 3rd party characters in Smash.
Still, most of the "newer" franchises that could get character will be having a 15th Anniversary about the time these 2 Smash games come out. I still have my Mega Man 15th Anniversary Collection game! WOAW! These series are that old, and Mega Man is 25 years old!

There really isn't any competition.
Me too (but that doesn't mean I didn't like LM1 and I effin' love that game.) The fact that Luigi will be traveling to more than one mansion this time give me hope that it'll be longer.
This begs the question as to why she has a horrible design.
Sheikah are implied to have longer lifespan than normal Hylians so it's not so much Impa being blessed by Hylia, but something distinct to her race.Impa was more or less blessed by the Goddess Hylia. Not the fact she can literally live for thousands of years. She was sent into the future by Hylia, then when Zelda is Sealed she is made a Guardian.. more or less she was more than likely blessed by Zelda/Hylia. Since Zelda even admits to speaking to Hylia to learn who she is. I doubt the Goddess would leave Zelda unprotected.
Even when she dies, she dissapears into a magic like dust.
1. I'd still say separate them.
You don't necessarily need coding for an outside studio to have material to work with. That's why I think, despite of a lack of in game coding, that a CG trailer could be done.
Combo chains, various cancelings, and no tripping for me. The planking issue can easily be resolved where the game has a built-in limit like the tether grabs have now. How this one went past the developers is beyond me.
But your stance is that Zelda requires Sheik's absence to fit your idea of what's good, so if separating them wouldn't necessarily lead to that, and you would suggest Zelda herself being the one to be revamped to fix that problem, then why are you suggesting the separation in the first place when you could just DIRECTLY SOLVE THE PROBLEM YOU PERCEIVE EXISTS by making Zelda better.
I noticed there are alot of extra doohickies on the Wii U controller than was previously shown. I wonder what they all will do.. (and yes, doohickies is the technical term)
The Sonic Dimensions game? I think that was confirmed by SEGA as a hoax. Although Sonic hitting the Wii U is inevitable.
NO, not Sonic Dimensions.The Sonic Dimensions game? I think that was confirmed by SEGA as a hoax. Although Sonic hitting the Wii U is inevitable.
...Plus I don't want figures of all of Sonic's ******* supporting characters to play the game.
The only game I would go out of my way to try and get all the figures would be for Smash. Even if they didn't do anything other than give you a trophy or something in game.
You bring up a good point. i think it's either
So "relevance," doesn't matter when "retro," comes in. That's moving the goal post if I ever saw it. What constitutes Retro. Ocarina of Time came out more than 10 years ago. Can it be retro?
Smash didn't get to where it was by being competitive. In fact, Sakurai was always trying to get away from the "scene" that fighting games had. Being more competitive wont help smash.Hey John your fanboyism is showing
But seriously, I see no facts, and it would be silly to think that this won't have some sort of impact on how people view SSB4. People are already even thinking this game will be better than SSB4. I'm not saying I agree with that statement, but it is being said.
Also, I wouldn't be so quick to say SSB4 is going to be more competitive, it is more likely that this game won't be, and that it'll be more casual, for that is the direction I think Sakurai is wanting to take it now. Not that I am saying this is going to happen, but it very well might happen, and a lot of people think that. This kind of game out there might change Sakurai's perspective of how to do it, considering he is just now starting develop it.
Sega tossed the idea around that maybe they can use figures to unlock new playable characters for a future Sonic installment. It would be pretty safe to assume the game would appear on a Nintendo console though.
IIRC, Sakurai balanced Sheik and Zelda to where they were used in tandem, except this hasn't work out in the slightest. If it wasn't Zelda that sucked, but Sheik, we'd still have the issue. I just don't like how Shelda has turned out for them. At least by breaking them up, neither one is subject to being a heavily polarized design. As John mentioned, Zelda's defence is good, but everything else sucks about her. To me, the 2-in-1 design is the reason behind this.
I think it's too early to assume that it won't give any competition, and if it doesn't it's prolly not gonna be because of the reasons you mentioned necessarily
I've got a broken keyboard. It must have held down the shift key
The game having fewer characters isn't a problem. It's a new game. It should have many.
How would "casuals," not care. Being able to see what is attacking you is important. The models here are just too small. It wont be fun if I can't see the guys attacking each other.
See it for yourself.
Ok, I'm listening now. I still don't like how the KO system is so specific. That being said, I still don't think a LMH system, while not completely needed, wouldn't change things drastically.
No, he doesn't. This Sony All-Star fighting game is a B or C-tier game. Smash is a AAA-tier game.
People have also said Obama would be the best President. (lol Washington says no to your handshake)
Honestly, most of Sony's 1st and 2nd party developing companies have gotten worse, minus Naughty Dogs (with Uncharted). So quite frankly, even though they say that, they are lacking in quality.
Sakurai invented L-cancelling on purpose, which was amazing, as well as jump cancelling, and a plethora of other techniques.
The problem is you are hoping that this will make Sakurai step up his game because of this. Your desires are blocking your ability to reason. Besides that, Sakurai doesn't need to step up his game, because he's proven in the past that nobody can outwork him. Instead, Game Arts, and the other developers need to step up their game. Oh, and HAL Laboratories needs to help make this game. Smash is simply a better series with HAL Laboratories doing most of the work than without them.I'm not saying it is more original. I still think SSB > Sony's game, I'm just making observations and hoping/speculating that this may have an effect. I'll drop the subject here though.
