That's actually a pretty good set of characters. Sakurai has good taste.

Still waiting for that Konami vs Capcom game that I made up a roster for... I blame Konami for it not being a reality. :drsad:

So, in case we actually only get the Mario Maker stage, how braced is everyone?
Well considering the release of just 1 stage would give the impression that all Sakurai and his team did was just make Mario Maker, I'd be very ****** off. Honestly I consider it an automatic failure if there's no DLC characters released, because that's the DLC everybody wants. If a DLC character is released, hopefully there's at least a first party character.

I feel like the angularness of old school Lara made her look more British.

The new Lara kind of looks more American with her fuller cheeks, etc.

I was playing through the first few Tomb Raider games not long ago. Minus the somewhat dated controls, they are pretty fantastic. I just hope Rise of the Tomb Raider can capture more of the magic of than originals than the reboot.

Sorry Opo, the marsupial demographic doesn't sell enough. Something about them not owning video games or something silly like that.

The latter's smile looks weird af to me XD :p
Really? I'm hung up on her gross hand myself, lol.

Hm...either way I prefer the new version.
I do like that they're gradually mutating the reboot Lara Croft to have the old one's facial characteristics as she become more badass.
Although I kinda just wish she'd stay cute like in the first game D:

Well, to be fair, atm, we have no real reason to believe we're getting a character.

To be honest, I am not sure what to expect. That's why I am more on the "wait and see" side of things. Still, I am pretty excited.

And thus, suddenly, Jibanya was revealed as a character.

I've been playing as her a bit lately and have grown to really like her phantom slash. Which is weird because I remember not liking it much in the 3ds version.

Don't worry guys, I'm going to play the "Oath to Hype" to summon the Four Data Miners, who will stop the Sakurai moon from crashing and find evidence of Wolf, Inkling, King K Rool, Isaac, and Shovel Knight in Smash 4's files.

I use to not like it too, but it has situational use and also tends to catch people off guard when you use it sparingly so I'm starting to like it.

It's been months since we got a character, why waste time on just Mii costumes and stages from June till the ballot when you could do characters, Mii costumes, and stages all at once. I mean why announce the Mario Maker stage weeks in advance if its the only thing? It would've been better to just release it on the 30th as a surprise. Why spend months working on 1 stage? We already know Nintendo finishes things long before their intended release.

To be fair, the only point in which I mentioned something in relation to breasts is cracking a joke about Ryuga being flat in response to someone thinking she was a boy. (i.e. "She may be flat, but she isn't a boy.")

.....and yet I still get called out for lewdness.....the first name being called, even......

Now that I think of it, I'm legitimately offended.
Sorry if I called you out and you weren't that active in that discussion. I went through all the pages I missed this morning, so I was bound to mess something up (there were a lot of posts). I just remember you posting something in relation to that discussion (probably that post you mentioned). So again, my apologies for directly naming you.

Anyway, I still think we are getting more than the Mario Stage. The maintenence is going to last quite a bit of time, and the stage is number 5 on the website. At the very least another stage and a Mii Costume. The lack of an announcement for a trailer hurts the characters chances, but it's still slightly possible IMO.

I'd be more inclined to believe the maintenance mattered if we didn't get an hour maintenance recently that had nothing.

Maybe Sakurai feels he's added all of the characters he feels should be in, and now he is waiting for the end of the ballot to finish the roster with what the fans want. We got three characters last time, it's not like there has to be one after a certain amount of time either.

Guys, I can't find the tab to strike through text.
Was it moved somewhere in the Smashboards update or is my text editor bugged?
It's the little box with a plus in it.

Edit: sorry double

He was added into Brawl because of fan demand, the only reason Sakurai would not feel he should be in would be because of bias. Wolf is a veteran who has tons of support, if Sakurai knew of Lucas' support, he knew of Wolf's.

As much as I want to agree with you, unless there's a post or something about the update tomorrow, the only facts we have for certainty is that there is a single stage coming.

Don't get me wrong, it's weird as ****. Why is it taking an hour and a half for maintenance for one stage? Where are the Mii Outfits, but, ya know, Sakurai is Sakurai.

Please correct me if I'm wrong (I probably am), but weren't people surprised by Wolf's inclusion and were expecting Krystal? Not that this disproves your claim at all, I just feel like I read that somewhere.

The beauty of going in with only the stage as an expectation, am I right? :p

Anything beyond the stage will just be a nice surprise for me.

According to a certain source of the gaming variety, Wolf was only included over Krystal in Brawl because he could be easier based on Fox and Falco conceptually.
Now...this is DLC, he has plenty of time to make her unique, and she's still demanded a lot...
I fear the worst.

I thought it was something like that. But anyway, I have very little faith in getting a character this time. It just doesn't feel right. Now of course I would be ecstatic if it actually happened, but I don't expect it.

its not the maintenance, but the idea that all Sakurai and his team did was solely work on Mario Maker, which would be a huge waste of resources. They've shown in the past that they can work on characters and stages simultaneously. I'll give it an automatic fail, if its just 1 stage just because they could have done lots more. The ballot is almost over, and we still don't know how many characters they'll do from that, releasing some characters would make some fans happy (depending on which characters they are). Spending months on 1 stage when they could've done more is a giant fail. To be honest I'm not really hyped up for the Mario Maker stage that much, since I usually just play for glory, and I'm not to excited about more Mario stuff (unless its Waluigi).

How do you know the team didn't take a break or something since the last update. Give them a chance. Also, this stage has a lot more going on than any of the other dlc stages. Most of them were just ported from another game. You could also argue the Miiverse stage is complex, but they advertised that much longer before its release than this stage so they obviously took time to make it.

So when did Sakurai say the Mario Maker stage is the only thing being worked? What if the Mario Maker stage was the only thing ready for release but other stuff was still being made? At least we'd be getting something other than an even longer wait for more content.
