Anyone else think that setting the release date a week before Smash Wii U hits is destructive to the scene as a whole?

The argument for PM this entire time has been (at least in part) keeping Smash relevant, so it HELPS Nintendo, right?
But now, that has switched to releasing what is in reality a COMPETING (and free for any Brawl players) product that confuses the competitive Smash scene even more.... a week before a new game comes out.

I'm sorry to be a downer here... and I like PM so I'm happy about a new release, but this feels like a really, really bad/destructive move, and I seriously question whoever came up with the release date.

(unless of course this is being rushed to avoid a cease/desist situation)
It makes more sense to be safe, just in case it DID happen.

It seems to me like it's being pushed out in an effort to keep PM relevant. After Smash 4 is released, many people who visit Smashboards while they wait for the Wii U game to be released will stop visiting. /completelyspeculating

I agree that releasing it now is a questionable decision, but they didn't have many options. If they don't release it they week before, odds are they won't release it the week after either, so they would have to wait around an extra month to release it, and even then, it could still conceivably interfere with Smash 4's sales to a large degree. Any later and it would affect the Christmas sales as well. They probably reasoned that now is as good of a time as any since there isn't an ideal release date until around January, and they don't want to make people wait 2 months for something they're ready to distribute now.

Regardless of whether it was a good idea or not, I'm glad the game is being released as soon as possible and I agree with their decision.

The change to Zelda's din's fire is...Interesting tbh. I wanna see where it goes. I might actually look into it and download this myself even though I haven't wanted to play for months.

Ironically, the design looks EVEN MORE unique, unusual, and foreign to the apparently desired "Normalizing" or "Meleefying to plainness" that many people wanted for P:M... LOL

Also, blatant Melee kicks return scene @vs Ivy. *sigh*

My reactions in order:
  • Meh.
  • ****, Metal Cavern is UGLY now. Damn it, that was my favorite stage.
  • Why the **** can Ganondorf fly?!
Yep, moving on to SSBU for sure.

HOLY ****! GOTTA DOWNLOAD THIS AS SOON AS IT RELEASES BEFORE SMASH 4 WII U, because I don't think I'll be looking back after that arrives, but good god PMBR, I gotta give credit where credit's due, you made Samus play like Samus, you gave alternate costumes to almost all characters, like any developer should, really, you balanced some great stages, and the game's making more and more of an identity. Also...

SUBSPACE EMMISSARY WITH PROJECT M MECHANICS AND CHARACTERS! YESSSSSZSZSZSZS!

Today is the day! The official Project M 3.5 trailer is here, with a ton of new info. Character costumes, skins, stages and some huge character changes are revealed, along with the most important part: the release date. Which, by the way, is closer than you think. A lot closer. Watch the trailer below for all the juicy details, and then hopelessly attempt to contain your hype. You're going to need more than one wrist strap.

Please note: The PAL release date is different than the NTSC version, but will be coming in the future! Stay tuned.

Are you excited? Check that - how excited are you? Make your voice heard in the comments below!

THE DERRIT ISN'T OUT OF CAPS LOCK MODE YET. HYPE HAS NOT BEEN CONTAINED. GO CRAZY WITH HIM ON TWITTER AT @THEDERRIT.
Wow! That is really stinking close!!!

Dammit I'll have to reset all my mods to put this up. Should I even bother? Smash Wii U comes out in a week. I dunno...
