I'll comment on all of these myself once someone else has so i wont be double posting

These leaks tho.

CO on a freaking roll tho

 

[Champ Gold]

I found myself (foolishly) hoping that Nintendo would do something for F-Zero's 25th Anniversary this year. Then I also remembered it's Super Mario Bros' 30th.

>F-Zero is 25 years old

GOOD GOD, THEY BETTER ANNOUNCE SOMETHING ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING EVEN SAKURAI IS ASKING WHY HE HASNT GOTTEN NEW GAME YET?

Spoiler

They will I think they'll just released GX and X on Wii U to download and a new game for 3DS. Then just restock the amiibos

 

[Khoru]

i don't remember the bit with pianta as a mario kart racer
i'm laughing

 

[Xzsmmc]

You're awfully optimistic. I expect nothing at all.

Being an F-Zero fan is a lot like repeatedly hitting your head against a stone wall.

 

[joetherocker]

That Animal Crossing explorer game in the super detailed "leak" sounds so horrible, lol.

Also, people really need to stop putting Lucas into these leaks and instantly debunking themselves.

Exactly. We already know he's coming out before E3, so these leaks talking about Lucas during the actual Nintendo Direct are such auto-BS.

Leak 1: Biggest thing against this one is that the 'retro studios' seems to have some white left from when they got rid of the background

leak 2: its maybe a little soon, but i wouldn't put it past namco. I would love to have Deku in the game, but I mean, we arent even 50 chapters in yet... actually, the bigger problem is probably, especially sinse we'll have about 100 when the game comes out

Spoiler

that his main mechanic (hurting himself) has a good chance to change in the next couple arcs... and what do they do then?

new playables are good. I want to see how ashirogi muto would act. wait, the leak says Light is from Death Parade (I'm guessing it was a mistale though, but still)

leak 3: i like the idea of the non-choice diolouge

leak 4: guy making this leak honestly seems like an anime-game fan whos annoyed at the lack of anime games in base leak

leak 5: announces a main mario game despite them saying no, and has lots of smash info despite smash direct. not neccisarily impossible, but unlikely considering

leak 6: Legit!

leak 7: legit, you can tell because nintendo is 3rd party now, so it makes sense that the new game they are making for the PS4 is HL3

These leaks tho.

CO on a freaking roll tho

thanks

 

[MasterofMonster]

@ continuityOfficer

Hey, you should check your pants. You are leaking an aweful lot.

 

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

To note, the Smash Direct is officially considered part of e3. It wouldn't much affect any leak, but it should be taken into account when debunking them.

 

[Starlight_Lily]

Was it stated in the DK manual that Jumpman was at least a carpenter, that's all I need to know.

You know that both plumbers and Carpenters work on construction sites right? So Mario going from Carpenter to plumber isn't all that weird.

I found myself (foolishly) hoping that Nintendo would do something for F-Zero's 25th Anniversary this year. Then I also remembered it's Super Mario Bros' 30th.

Don't expect anything exciting for the 25th anniversary of any Nintendo series. Even Mario's 25th all we got was a re-release of Mario All Stars. Zelda was lucky to get a symphony.

That leak with the gamepad+ killed itself when it said it would be able to play DS/3DS games, by having a DS/3DS cartridge slot

 

[Naoshi]

It would be three stages each game, at least.

Not gonna lie, I would love having Magicant be legal.

My issue is more or less a game/UI design kind of thing. It just would make far more sense having a "Boss Toggle" (or possibly a "Hazard Toggle") instead of another button for the Stage Select for something that's only 3 stages within a roster. The idea of playing stages without the bosses is great, I want that too, but the leaker gave it an unrealistic way of doing it.

It just doesn't make any sense from a game designer's point of view.

EDIT: Another good alternative is just to have Alpha stages just being "no hazards" rather than "no bosses" since this can apply to the majority of the levels, instead of the 3 with boss fights.

Also I totally agree about Magicant. I love that stage, but it'd make my day if it manages to be a legal stage with an option to disable Flying Men.

Sakurai on the level of customization in the game…

You can still manage the appearance of items, but you cannot disable the damage caused by the stages. If we propose such an option, it might as well be PlayStation all-stars!

Granted, this is from a guy who constantly changes his opinion, but in essence it would still be copying a mechanic from a competing system's fighting game; albeit one that copied his.

 

[TheAnvil]

I managed to snag Robin and Lucina on the UK Nintendo Store. Hopefully they go through with the order!!

 

[Nekoo]

Is your body ready for CrashBoard ?

Can we have the link for the chatroom ?

Yeah, I recall this. To be honest I think his reasoning is completely silly as I think a stage hazard toggle would honestly be great, no matter which game did it first. (It isn't that unique or innovative of an idea, since many people have asked for this in Smash Bros for the longest time)

I don't really see this option being a thing for this game sadly, he might change his mind next time.

 

[Spazzy_D]

Game Theory is absolutely clickbait trash and being funny isnt an excuse because it isn't. (Plus MattPat isn't funny at all)


That Wii U/Virtual Boy and the whole Pew Die Pie videos made me realize they guy isnt someone to take seriously

Literally every video on YouTube is click bait. That's the entire YouTube business model.

Game Theory actually provides what it promises, though, which are fun and slightly absurd videos that fabricate outlandish theories about popular video games. Most are at least mildly entertaining, and some are even slightly educational.

I'm personally not a big GT fan, but some of the episodes are fun to watch on occasion. Any hate (hate, not dislike) I see for the series, especially as a result of fans that take the show too seriously (something that Matt Patt and crew have no control over) comes off as a bit silly.

If you guys want, can you go bug Kevin Cassidy from Go Nintendo?
He reposted the full translation that I worked on with three other people, 20 minutes after it was posted.

In the introduction that he wrote for Source Gaming's translation, it seems that he did all the work.
Here's the current introduction, and the first paragraph of the translation:

Following up from the feature we shared earlier today, here's a look at the full feature from Famitsu.

When it comes to Smash, every once in a while people will wrongly direct their anger towards me. They accuse me of things such as giving preference or strength to the characters that I’ve worked on in the past—in other words, the Kirby and Kid Icarus series characters. Oh my.

Link to Go Nintendo's page.

I don't mind that he stole used the entire translation, I'm upset that he doesn't properly attribute us, as it makes it harder for people to find our site.

Anyway, here's a link to the translation. It's about Sakurai's approach to balancing the game, and his view on the competitive scene. I posted it earlier but I didn't get to explain it. If you guys have any questions, I'd be happy to answer them.

"If you want to enjoy thrilling tactical gameplay, you might be better suited for other 2D fighting games." Sakurai pls. Smash 4 is really balanced and still contains everything I loved in previous games, which is all I asked for really.

[SkywardStriker16]

Link's Awakening. Majora's Mask. Link's Crossbow Training(justified, at least, since it has no usable swords), Phantom Hourglass. Spirit Tracks. All Four Swords games as is(including Minish Cap). Wasn't in the first two Zelda games either. Just saying.

Completely forgot about those, and I'm a hardcore Zelda fan myself.
I think I just needed an excuse to use the squid pun.
Twilight Squidess
Inkarina of Time
Ink's Splattershot Training
Zelda II: The Adventure of Ink
what if you could #InkAGame

Nintendo is pretty arbitrary on what anniversaries they elect to celebrate. Metroid got the cold shoulder on it's 25th in favor of Zelda.

I tweeted at him on Twitter. That's pretty crappy. Yes it's linked at the bottom, but he didn't even try to make it obvious he took it from somewhere. Last I checked, that was still plagiarism.

Link:

If you copy language word for word from another source and use that language in your paper, you are plagiarizingverbatim. Even if you write down your own ideas in your own words and place them around text that you've drawn directly from a source, you must give credit to the author of the source material, either by placing the source material in quotation marks and providing a clear citation, or by paraphrasing the source material and providing a clear citation.

I'm not sure where we stand in terms of copyright. It's pretty murky as SG provided an unauthorized translation of Famitsu's published work...so I'm not sure if Source Gaming could claim 'copyright' over it. Like I said, I don't really mind he just copied and pasted our full translation (Other sites like Nintendo Everything did the same thing). Go Nintendo is just unique as far as they didn't even attempt to source, Source Gaming (no pun intended).

 

[MasterofMonster]

GoNintendo is awesome. First site I was a member on. Remember RMC (Kevin) is a extremely busy person. I am sure he will properly mention this place when told. He has mentioned Smashboards a lot before.

Both games have highly intrusive hazards in casual play...though I'm willing to argue that things such as GOW Hades/Patapons or Metal Gear RAY are more intrusive(and game-changing) than some of Smash's non-boss hazards, since Ridley/Yellow Devil/Metal Face can end up deciding games.

Then again, some of the PSASBR hazards are intrusive enough to allow others to kill you while suffering their effects(Hades again).
