New Smash Bros for WiiU

[ChronoBound]

The poor reviews for Mario Tennis Open makes me further suspect that Camelot lost a lot of its talent. Keep in mind that Camelot was basically absent from making games for much of this last generation due to them shedding a lot of their staff.

 

[Baskerville]

Seen the reviews, and yeah I'm really surprised. Still wanna try it out though.

Holder, IT'S TORNADO, NOT WHIRLWIND

C'moon.

 

[Holder of the Heel]

You have much to learn, grasshopper.

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

While Mario Tennis Open may not be too impressive with the roster inputs, at least it shows that Bowser Jr. and Waluigi are still very well recognized in the spin-off titles.

Not really, neither were present in Mario Kart 7. It's called Camelot making their own roster choices.

Wait, what?

Anyway, on Camelot, it sounds pretty dumb that they're now seemingly losing touch. I wonder if a new Golden Sun after Isaac's inclusion in Smash 4 would be any good, actually...

(-l^l-);

 

[Holder of the Heel]

Horsetail, your memory is awful. Even worse than my goldfish brain.

And someone here buy that Mario Tennis game and tell me that it is actually good... I really hope it isn't another "Mario Kart 7". Such crap.. Come on Nintendo. -_-

 

[Oasis_S]

Mario Kart 7 is great though?

 

[Diddy Kong]

Waluigi's first appearance ever was Mario Tennis. It's only logical he'd make it.

 

[Lukingordex]

Mario Kart 7 is great though?

No. This game do not have Waluigi.

Mind if you ring this memory here then before INSULTING, 'kay? (-=´=-); /And you are a goldfish brain, eh?/

I dunno if I want to buy MTO... I'd invest my money on Rhythm Thief instead wholeheartedly.

By the way, isn't Waluigi like Camelot-character? Even in Mario Tennis - Power Tour, he says the name of the company in the intro. XDD

 

[Holder of the Heel]

Oasis, MK7 is like MP9 with racing. It is fun but not at all addicting, and very random, so anyone with competitive intentions is turned off by it. Just doesn't get my blood racing man, not my kind of game.

I am totally chill, why do I have like a Falcon reputation 'round these parts nowadays? D< I AM ALWAYS CHILL WITH YOU GUYS, WHY DON'T YOU SEE THIS

Not sure about Rhythm Thief, hasn't caught my attention enough to look it up at all, but I shall now at your mention.

 

[~ Valkyrie ~]

Yo Holder, ya should really check out Rhythm Thief, there's a demo in EShop, (At least in Europe, dunno about USA)
I dunno if it catches you but if you like rhythm games and/or Professor Layton or Kaito Kid, this might interest you up. The music is damn awesome too.


I just want to say that Sega finally made an IP that really interested me up from the start, hum.

And about that chill-thing... maybe it's because ya throw insults around... makes you look like fiery-tempered... I don't wanna provoke those feelings usually, but seems like I trigger it too easily in your case. (-T_l-)

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

It does feel depressing when a Mario Kart title is turned down, even though it does implement some new game elements; no other Mario Kart gives you the power to customize your kart.

Still, a Mario Kart 7 reference for Smash 4 wouldn't hurt.

 

[Holder of the Heel]

I've never really tried rhythm games before, I'm not sure. Found it in the eShop but there is no demo for me to play so I'm guessing the US doesn't get to take part.

And when do I throw insults around idiot? I love you guys, don't be a moron.

I'm guessing that future MK titles will allow for Kart customization, even if it isn't as detailed as it is in MK7 (which wasn't super detailed in the first place).

And if MK7 does get implemented in SSB4, I hope that if we receive a stage, it's something interesting that would make a good stage like Shy Guy Bazaar, Neo Bowser City, or Wario Galleon. It'll probably be a simple MK7'd Mario Circuit though.

Although it might also be Rainbow Road, and if the MK7 version was used as the basis, the stage could potentially be very cool.

 

[Disfunkshunal]

Mk7 isn't Mp9 with racing, that's a bit of an insult. Mp9 was a shadow of mp's former self shedding much of what was familiar and appreciated and replaced it with wii party's gimmick. Another reason I miss Hudson T_T.

Mk7 just loss snaking, which was arguably OP, some characters which admittedly was a big loss and a single player vs mode which is tolerable since most people prefer to play online anyway.

 

[Elyssa Xey Hexen]

I have tried a version of Rhythm Heaven and its whacky, fun, and frustrating. Although, I think it was a fairly recent localization.

I'm thinking we will probably see a Rainbow Road track styled after Mario Kart 7.

Rhythm Heaven Fever?

Well there's your problem.


Also I never thought of you as another Falcon. Like. Not even. You're so harmless. Maybe I should call you Kitten Heels instead. I can call you that now, btw. Started working on icons last night.

 

[Arcadenik]

Big deal. Camelot is second party, not first party. Of course it is to be expected that they would put Waluigi in this game. At least Nintendo themselves made Mario Kart 7 so Toad is more likely than Bowser Jr. who is more likely than Paper Mario who is more likely than Waluigi who is more likely than Geno.

 

[Deleted member]

No one is more likely than the other. Everyone has an equal leg to stand on. Except Geno, since he's not even owned by Nintendo.

Though the chances of NOT getting a Mario Newcomer are stronger than getting one.

Unless your definition of a Mario character matches Sakurai's. In which case, you will get at least one. But it won't be one with a Mushroom icon. They'll have a DK icon or possibly a W icon.

 

[Holder of the Heel]

Well there's your problem.

Well hey, I remember Double Dash had a little more skill involved, I could win consistently in that, whereas I can get first and then last every other games in MK7.

Also I never thought of you as another Falcon. Like. Not even. You're so harmless.

I am dangerous Oasis. I could put Keyboard Warriors to shame with my might.

Maybe I should call you Kitten Heels instead. I can call you that now, btw.

No you can't.

FINALLY. I think I can faintly remember being born and requesting some icons and I am now finally getting them.

It is an insult, they are both ruled by the Gods of Random Bull****. They are fun, but not something I can see myself playing very much. Even if MK7 has my sweet Honey Queen.

 

[Metal Overlord]

"Falcon reputation"?

 

[Deleted member]

Of course he's not Kitten Heels. He's Bunneh Heels, as compared to me, he's just a sweet, cuddleh BUNNEH.

Bowser Jr. is a Mario character with big chances to get in.

 

[Deleted member]

He has equal footing to Toad, Paper Mario, Dr. Mario, and Waluigi. They all have "big chances" for one reason or another.

But the odds of not getting one are far greater, unless you count the subseries like Sakurai does.

 

[ChronoBound]

I am not sure if people realize that Mario Kart games sell better than Smash Bros. games. The only other Mario games that sell better than Smash Bros. games are Mario platformers (particularly 2-D platformers).

Nah.........

Nah.........

What a compelling argument. You've certainly made me reconsider my evaluations with such a well-crafted viewpoint. [/sarcasm]

Lol, now this made me think of Big Buck Bunny-videos. XDDD

I'm gonna change my signatures a bit, Demille, Meowth, Prince Sable and Mac's gotta go the new characters I've been supporting up.

[Metal Overlord]

Of course Mario Kart sells better

It's had way more games than Smash, including handheld games, something Smash has never had (yet)

 

[Deleted member]

@GoldenYuiitusin: I don't think it would be fair to say that Waluigi is as likely as Toad, Bowser Jr., and Paper Mario. There's nothing really going for him that the other three don't have.

@ChronoBound: I'm not sure why anyone would expect K. Rool or Dixie Kong to even show up anyway in those games, even with the choices they made for it (which shows that Mario spin-off games pick characters off a hat).

 

[Holder of the Heel]

I'm so badass I do this

to myself.

Assist Trophy status; Sakurai's liking of him, showing in both Melee and Brawl.
If anything, putting Paper Mario on that list is not fair. Why people think he's so damn likely is beyond me.

Kitten Heels.

 

[---]

Golden's argument just made me remember something from a while back:

 

[N3ON]

Even though MK sells better than Smash, it still doesn't sell better than the regular Super Mario series (for the most part), if only due to more games in the SM series than the MK series. That's where Sakurai looks for Mario inspiration first and foremost, and then focuses on the Mario series spin-offs, like the sport, racing, and rpg games.

It's also why I would personally expect Toad and Bowser Jr. above Paper Mario and Waluigi.
edit: Keeping in mind Toad and Bowser Jr also appear in most sport and racing games as well.
