New Smash Bros for WiiU

[Shorts]

- There's a lot of implied differences between the 3DS and WiiU versions. The issue of limitations (or lack thereof) come up ("I could make 50 characters, or double the stages, or make everything prettier (graphically), but with the WiiU I don't have to choose just one of those options"), while he runs into that problem with the 3DS, "maybe something fun like the original smash bros." adding something about a handicap.

With this here it shows that the 3DS version will be stripped down compared to the Wii U version. If Sakurai decides for characters to be one of the few things not to be compromised, we could end up having a roster That only goes to 40-44 for both versions.

I can only imagine how much more vicious the character speculation will get when there are only eight slots for newcomers to get in....

What are you getting at chrono?

As far as I can tell this quote just proves that SSbWiiU will very different from SSB3DS.

Ok here's the Mewtwo answer it's vague but basically says there were some Mewtwo files. Dummies though.

Exactly what I'm saying here. Thank you.

There is your citation.

Both of you shut up about Mewtwo now.

Totally this. I (Limelight788 on that site) was influenced enough to where I plan on doing the exactly same thing for revising my roster. I want to see at least 44 characters in, I would love a 50+ character roster, and I certainly DO NOT want only 40 characters for the next Smash.

I totally agree with the 50+ character thing being awesome, but you have to ask yourself, will the game be balanced enough with a character roster over 50 characters?

The idea sounds good, but I honestly have doubts whether Sora will be able to pull this properly enough, if you ask me Id rather have 43,44 at most including transformations, if would definetly ease the chances ofhaving
clone/luigified/broken characters.

I think there just might be less multi-player modes on the 3DS such as CO-op All Start/Multi-man/etc. Stadium modes.

Who think's Luigi’s Mansion level will be in ssmb4?

I'd like to see it come back my self!

I was all so looking at the dojo page and i was looking at all the new comer's, and there's 11 new comer's for brawl,13 vet's,and 12 secret player's you had to unlock.

Know i was thinking this just hit me lol..how many vets do you all think will make a come back in ssmb4?

How many new comer's could there be?

How many secret unlockable character's could there be?

I honestly hope it will be. Two very different experiences would be cool.

I'm actually somewhat excited for a portable Smash just because of the uniqueness of finally have Smash available to me on the go.

But then that means I'm really hoping for a full-on explosion of awesomeness from SSBU. And after playing Melee again for a bit, MEWTWO MUST RETURN!

Beginning 12 is basically set in stone, even though some people want Jigglypuff gone. Even if Jigglypuff did leave I wouldn't lose any sleep over it.

hmm I've never actually though of a roster myself but I'm thinking about 15 newcomers.

Luigi's Mansion is in Brawl so I believe an updated version will come.

I agree about Jigglypuff, but I don't feel she should leave, and I don't think she will. I'm feeling 10-15 newcomers myself, totaling to a 40-45 character roster.

Those are SINGLE-player modes. Not multiplayer. Sakurai said that the 3DS version would be more individual orientated.

 

[Starphoenix]

Basically don't expect some comprehensive online system with the 3DS installment, expect more of a Subspace Emissary type experience.

Yeah I know that LOL. In Brawl they have Co-op ability though. So thanks for agreeing with me. I said basically the co-op part will be cut in SSB3DS

I can't see them not including ANY multiplayer at all. They would be crazy not to have SOME kind of 4v4 wireless gameplay...

I'm not so much worried about the modes with this 3DS Smash. I'm more interested in how the character line-up is going to go. Is there any info about whether or not we will see roster size differences? If WiiUSmash is aimed towards balancing the roster, then I could see reason for a Small line-up. But if it can somehow play more competitive, with a larger line-up then I see no reason to keep the Rosters the same size.

unless nintendo decides to do DLCs and online patches to balance the game. it may take a while, but it should work out in the long run.

The 3DS could totally do DLC, too.

 

[Conviction]

Yeah Nintendo would work wonders and win others over with DLC

MAYBE the DLC could be something you get for the 3DS version, and possibly DLC stuff that you can send to the Wii U version? Unless, you know, the Wii U can do DLC.

 

[Conviction]

Good point. Hopefully Wii U is compatible with DLC. It's supposed to be next gen right?

IF NOT, I can see Nintendo with faces on, basically making people buy 3DSs and SBB3DS just to use DLC.

 

[majora_787]

Yeah. I don't see why not. It'd probably need an SD card like the 3DS, but that's okay...

ACTUALLY. I just thought of this, a little off topic-- Is it possible to copy DLC from SD card to SD card via a computer? I'm curious.

 

[Conviction]

Idk that's something I'd have to look into.

Since I keep hearing about more than 4 player matches from different post on here, what does everyone think about how many players can play at once?

 

[OmegaXXII]

Thanks guys, I am glad you guys liked the idea of a Sky Skipper stage with the biplanes... that would be a good WTF stage... kinda like how Hanenbow (the Electroplankton stage) was in Brawl.

It would definetly play like PokeFloats in a way, jumping back and forth, all while avoiding falling of screen.

Four is certain, but I'm really hoping that it's five this time and that we can do more when connecting it to the 3DS.

Melee was supposed to have 6 players but the Gamecube ended up having only 4 controller slots, and then they stuck with that trend in Brawl and the wii.

 

[Arcadenik]

Have you guys thought that maybe there won't be DLC... at least not the way you think?

Maybe the 3DS exclusive characters are the DLC for the Wii U version... and the Wii U exclusive characters are the DLC for the 3DS version?

Thats what I expect, either that or simple alternate costumes downloadable. Definitely balance patches though.

 

[Rosalina suporter]

Omg have you guys seen ign,they are saying that the Wii U will most likely be hiting the first half of next year that mean's smash bros won't be comeing out the same time the wii u duess!

Are you all going to get your Wii U when it first comes out or are you going to waight till smash 4 come's out?

Video of Six-player gameplay. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aH42H-rdiCI&feature=related

Yeah I thought of that, but have you thought it would probably be in Nintendo's best interest to do so. Other fighting games have had success with it.

Well, I figured there'd be DLC for the 3DS, and that content being on the 3DS would act as DLC for your WIIU version. Either or.

But I do believe having both versions will let you download version exclusives from the other version. SORT OF like Pokemon; if I have Black version AND White version, I can have version exclusives on either game if I feel like it, simply because I connected the two together.

EDIT: Maybe 3DS will have 6 players? :3 That'd be interesting.

 

[Conviction]

Rosalina. Even at E3 they said expect the Wii U by march of next year, why are you so surprised by that article?

Also I will be buying it when it comes out, I already have the money for it saved.

Majora: I think the Wii U would have more players before the 3DS basing off of what Sakurai intentions, also they already have a 5 player Wii U game, Chase Mii, so I think the Wii U is more likely.

if they dont then they already messed up with this new system. the current concoles of sony and microsoft can do DLCs and looks wheres its gotten. if nintendo wants to step up to the plate, they need to work on their online and allow voice chat. its the norm of video games nowadays.

This is soo true.

You can't be next gen if you fail where the last gen excelled or at least keep up with them.

6 players? lol, i would so want to see that. just like pokemon have triple battles now, it would be very amusing to see 3 on 3 battles in this smash.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sU-5tufx5L8&feature=related there is another 6 player match if you'd like to see.

 

[majora_787]

Well, of course we aren't getting SSB4 as a launch title. They're not entering development until October or so. They'd have worked on the game for five months, TOPS.

rofl, thats entertaining. would be interesting to see smash have 6 players now. lol.

 

[Conviction]

I'll be the first to advocate 3v3s in tournies, or if we get the 8 player thing I see some people speculate about, I'll also advocate 4v4s.

Definetly a great concept, awesome possibilities, and overallove fun at tourneys and friends.

 

[freeman123]

I was just thinking, there will probably be characters exclusive to the 3DS version who are mostly known for appearing in DS/3DS games, and characters exclusive to the Wii U version who are mostly known for appearing in Wii/Wii U games. For example, the 3DS version could have characters like Starfy, while the Wii U version would have characters like Travis Touchdown.
