Possible Oversights of 2nd Brawl Trailer!!!

[squaminator]

it actually loks like he moves as part of his rocket launch move, as it is being pulled out while he moves

thats because he was dashing forward just a bit to hurry to pits side as he fell, it only looks like hes moving with the rocket because hes still (most likely) sliding from the dash, which raises a very interesting point:

WILL SNAKE BE SLIPPERY? I BET HE WILL!
because in some of his games, stepping in water leaves behind foot prints, and possibly making a walkable surface more slippery! ill have to think about that!

EDIT: i thought that since he might be slippery, snake might be a good wave dasher, that is, unless they take WDing out of the game...

Nice find VA! I thought you were wrong at first, Pikachu does his upB right when he is hit, and I thought he was flashing from that, but I paused it at the right moment (totally by luck and chance) and he turns red, not a color he should flash. That's obviously a fire contact flash. I'll put it up on the mother post. Good on ya' VA. Nice find.

Why thank you

It's what you get from watching the smash videos in HD in 1/2 speed about a billion times

Don't even worry about it. Oh! I thought I did lol. My bad. Forget. I'll get right on that. No worries.

I decided to investigate tstsumos claim about Wario's fart move. It is EXTREMELY hard to see anything but as far as I can guess this is what he was talking about:

I found another balance tweak in the second movie aswell. At 0:16 - 0:17 Link is hit by Mario's cape. Instead of sort of hovering in the air OR being turned around he just sort of moves down. I am not sure whether both of these observations are true; its difficult to see as Kirby is Usmashing Link almost at the same time. But basically cape seems to have been hit big with the nerf stick. DIE cape.

How could you misspell my name?

Anyways, great observations. I'm gonna go watch the trailer again because you're so awesome at observations... you've inspired me to try to find my own!

EDIT: I found WAY more than I thought. What I did was d/l it from IGN, and then play it in slow-mo. Here's what I found:

0:52- Meta Knight's roll in slow-mo is at least as fast as the fastest normal roll in Brawl. His lag is incredibly small, too. I wonder if rolls are getting faster in general...

1:37- Pika's dsmash now sends out sparks a that go slightly farther than his old dsmash, it looks like an effect untill you play it in slow-mo. This with Dyce's observation on his extended fsmash might a (IMO needed) range increase for Pika!

1:49- Link's usmash is MUCH faster.

1:51- Meta Knight has an ingame glide attack, not a big deal, but one could speculate that this is part of the "improved air games"

2:21- Is that Marth doing a spin attack/dolphin slash combo on Mario? It can't be Pit, because he's falling to the stage. And I'm pretty sure this guy had a cape.

Overall/unsure observations:

I know people have noticed this, but that's actual gameplay, isn't it? Where's the %'s? Are they taking the displays out to try to make it more "newbie-friendly" as Sakurai stated they'd try to do?

Meta Knight has 2 dashes it looks like. I didn't record the times, but one time he does a run->kick, and earlier in the trailer he does a run->slash.

Also, I can't tell one way or the other, but on Pit's stage, about 1:52, is Snake just throwing a bomb, or is Pit hitting him with his spinning blades move and Snake counters it with a bomb? I hope it's a counter!

I think I had another one, but I'm not sure. Oh, and Dyce, I saw all your observations, good eye!

2:21 - It's Link, unless Marth has a shield in this game. You probably just saw his hat.

who would confuse that with marth? come one....

I think we cleared that up a LONG time ago, elegyempty. >_>

Sorry for abandoning the topic a while back, I got SPM.

Nice find, VA. They already got sleep, now they have burn. What's next? Poison, confuse, paralyze? Pwnage.

PS: It makes me happy to see my name in the first post... Thanks for the credit!
