Social NintenZone Social 6.0 - L'Arachel Edition, Apparently?

[Strider_Bond00J]

I've seen everything in the Direct at Uni today - When I finished my Spanish class, the first thing I saw was the Smash Bros announcement. The Inklings being the first announced characters was probably the best way to start up the crazy new era of speculation.

Now on to seeing what everyone's reactions were throughout the time I was gone, while I listen to the "Simple and Clean - Ray of Hope" Remix on endless loop. See you soon, then I'll share my thoughts on how I felt about the whole direct. Good Naga, sooner or later I'm gonna cave in and dive back to the Kingdom Hearts games with the 1.5 + 2.5 compilation on PS4...

So folks... how would you feel if Smash Bros turned into a game as service model?

I'd probably be a bit mixed on it, provided it's done tastefully in a more positive example like what Killer Instinct 2013 could do or Street Fighter V tried to do at launch. But if they did the BBTAG (Lock half the entire roster) or SWBFII(Lock everything behind inconsistent unlocks/microtransactions) paths, I'd be pretty mad.

Isn't Crash popular in Japan too though? Woudln't that count for something.

Where do you think the Crash Dance and Fake Crash came from?

Aren't those based off the sales of the PlayStation games anyway? I haven't looked at sales but it's possible it had a Metroid situation in that Japanese sales tanked after the first four installments. Even then, it also has to translate into fan demand for it to mean anything.

 

[Starlight_Lily]

Something I just thought of.

Link is clearly BotW Link.

Zelda will most likely get the make over too.

But what are they gonna do for Twilight Princess Ganondorf? Just...keep him rocking this old tired look?

But him rocking the old and tired look works for Ganondorf, he is an old man after all

So folks... how would you feel if Smash Bros turned into a game as service model?

Depends on what you mean0, if you mean something like a strong base game, then DLC later on, preferbly in packs, meaning something like paying 30 gets you a season pass that gives something like 10 playable characters, otherwise its best to just do a base game, then do something like X amount of DLC characters.

With that said, it would be neat for me if Smash for Switch, was just a constant stream of DLC of characters and stages, cause it would mean it would never be outdated. Thougj this does mean Nintendo would lose one of its studios, the obvious one for Smash being Hal Labs, which would mean a lack of new Kirby games.

 

[Deoxys911]

Did somebody say "Leaks Thread"? Yes, please, my body is ready to get back on the hype train and start dissecting leaks and rumors! (In before "Please enjoy my friend Pokémon from Switch games.")

 

[New_Dumal]

As someone who half of his Smashboard post/messages were in the previous Leak thread, I come here just to strongly ask for a new one,The time is here. The time is now.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

HOW ABOUT NO!

The place was made for you guys to socialize after the leaks group became mega doodoo on a stick that smells like rotting eggs and Waluigi's crotch.

You people have no idea how bad that place got. Especially as moderators.

I do not support a new one at all.

Yeah you might want to change that C-Word buddy, not really something you should be using like that.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

It got that bad...

But fine I'll change it I guess.

Sorry but thinking about the leaks group put in my a bad mode.

 

[Jojalole]

So, we got the teaser for the new Smash game (I'll call it teaser since we don't have any gameplay). When do you guys think we'll get gameplay trailer? The obvious answer is E3, and I'm guessing with that we might get a new character. But since Villager was revealed in the last Smash and already had gameplay, maybe we don't get any new character on this gameplay trailer and they just show up the Inklings.

Also, sorry to "not" talk about Smash Bros, but this is a social after all, so... I got the most luck ever in FEH

My god, I'm ready to get screwed the rest of my live. Wish the other Morgan was Chrom, but we take those ahahaha. Didn't expect to get anything from this banner and here I am. FMorgan has trash IVs, but both male one's are good.

It's alright, we all had bad times because of leaks and what not, just remember to have fun and just do you because at the end of the day, Nintendo taking all of money and getting rich so let's try to have fun with it K?

 

[N3ON]

I modded the original Smash 4 leak thread for a time, and it was pretty cancerous.

So I wouldn't really recommend a new one. The leaks that are notable for one reason or another will get enough discourse surrounding them with or without that thread.

But I leave it to the mods. Who can also reprimand me if I've used any untoward language here.

As a former mainstay of that place.

I am Roger Smith and I approve this message.

 

[Fenriraga]

I mean, like with Smash 4, I'm pretty sure leaks will make their way here regardless. We just don't need a "group" for it.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Waluigi's crotch

I don't even

I know he doesn't have much of one...

But what's there....

smells rancid.

So how do you know how it smells?

Is there something your not telling us?

 

[New_Dumal]

I can completely understand how hard and tragic was the Leak groups to the moderators.
But I also know that I'm not the only one who liked that space a lot.
The discussion and fake leaks all over the place were just so cool. At least at the start-middle.
Also, for Smashboards itself, seems like a nice move to restrict ""leaks"" discussion to a certain place, since it gives a vision that the site is not supporting leak of information to be spread.

 

[Deleted member]

In my own personal experience, I've grown to not like the Ice Climbers that much due to some vitriol others had towards the 3DS version. I'd always prefer to have a portable version over a character or two. But since Switch is just one platform that meets both gameplay styles, at home or on the go, adding them should not be a problem and please those who wanted them back in the last two games.

So folks... how would you feel if Smash Bros turned into a game as service model?

Haven't some people on past threads said they'd be fine with this model? I mean, everyone wants DLC to keep going and going. I personally would prefer the same path as 3DS/Wii U: release the base software, then add downloadable content until the developers feel like they are done and don't have to continuously work on it.

Bold lies to claim that trailer featured the face of either Mario or Link.

Yeah you might want to take any leak posted on 4chan with a grain of salt, lucky for you this site is gonna become pretty salty over the next few month so prepare yourself.

I don't see it.

However...

I did find that the Smash 4 website links to the Smash 2018 site.

I'm aware. I since edited the post to have a question mark at the end. Currently in a thread lurking. Let's see if OP is saying the truth and it's not some inspect element joke.

I don't see it.

The press site may be stylized in the same way as the normal NoA site. We'll have to see.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Well fellas I'm game now. I'll post my full direct thoughts later

 

[Z25]

This luck is insane. Congrats though. I put 40 orbs on with nothing so far but a five star eirika first batch.

this is a fair point but st the same time legit leaks usually come from them. It’s a 50/50 and all luck of the draw with that site. Side Note: I fully expect ice climbers to be back no doubt. They will be shown in the first official trailer with inklings another newcomer and will be on the base roster this time to please fans.

 

[Mythra]

HAL Laboratory didn't work on SSB4 right?

 

[Knight Dude]

****, I just realized.

If Mega Man does return... I wonder if his model will be based on MM11 instead of the 8 bit games.

I remember posting about something like that a while back. Though that might've been in the Mega Man threads.

Nope. They only worked on the original Nintendo 64 game and Melee. Game Arts (with help of other companies like Monolith Soft) developed Brawl, and Bandai Namco are behind 3DS/Wii U.

Well, from a pragmatic standpoint, it makes sense to market it as a new game even if it is a half-sequel like the rumors (and Emily) have suggested. While this doesn't confirm it's 100% brand new, it does tell us Nintendo is treating it as such. That bodes well for there being a significant amount of new stuff either way.

The copyright there is for the original concept behind Smash Bros. It doesn't actually tell us anything about who's behind this one.

Beware red herrings!

EDIT: Wait a minute, that original image is from 4chan? Are we sure that's legitimate?

 

[Kamikazek]

The wording is identical to the wording of the Smash Bros. entry in the Nintendo direct summary on Nintendo's site, but with the "with an all new game" part inserted in.

https://www.nintendo.com/whatsnew/d...-bros-series-heads-to-nintendo-switch-in-2018

Which makes it extra suspicious imo. Seems like someone took the official press release so it feels really official and added in a statement that answers a debated question, which is a really common faking tactic. But I could be wrong.

 

[Dan]

There was so much weird stuff in this Direct, like why wouldn't Captain Toad have been on the 3DS and Luigi's Mansion been on the Switch? Just seems more practical imo.

*Checks SSB4 Site*

Welp

Now I get the "Original Game" Tag

 

[N3ON]

It doesn't surprise me Nintendo would choose to brand the game that way, but again I'd caution waiting until we see actual gameplay before making truly definitive statements, even if that's what Nintendo is doing. We conclusively know so little.

But Captain Toad is on the 3DS

You call that luck? I got Saber as my Free Summon. Now that is luck, even if he does have a -SPD, +HP Nature.

 

[Staarih]

Waking up to 40+ notifications while I was used to max like 3 at a time tells me we're back at it again!
(or I simply watch too many support threads).

Anyway, I went through the Direct again and the 3DS support is surprising, 2019 titles, really? Though the new Dillon is something I'll definitely try out. I'm oddly excited for Undertale for Switch, I've lowkey waited for it to arrive on a Nintendo console (never thought it would actually happen), and here we are, cool.
...I don't want to douple dip in Captain Toad but I loved that game and new (New Donk City) levels please me way too much.

Waluigi's crotch.

Why do you know the smell of that place?

Interesting, the bottom of the website has link to the Smash WiiU/3DS webpage

Nintendo is really making me confused as to whether this is a port or not
