Project M April Fools

[Silic0n]

I just saw a video from Project M's youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tCXABhlj3nI. It has some pretty interesting stuff in it. Thoughts?

 

[HRR2b23]

I'm pretty sure that the Ike Climbers are the greatest things to happen to the internet XD

 

[arcticfox8]

I'm pretty sure I'm maining Slippy

 

[AlgonquinArto]

Another space animal I'm hyped for this. I think slippy is real he had his own standing and running animation. If he is then bring back falco's brawl shine to see what that would be like in a melee atmosphere. Other than that a great video didn't know what to say when it was over.

 

[NWRL]

Lmaooooooo

 

[Guilu]

I would definitely take Ike Climbers as another secret silly character like Giga Bowser and SoPo.

Also Ridley would be cool, why you gotta anounce him on an April Fool's video PMBR ? :'(

 

[Deleted member]

you guys forgot to give fox a sword

 

[HRR2b23]

Stop saying Slippy will be a character...that won't happen ever XD The only things in that video that may be legit are the front of the screen KOs and Ridley.....but I hope Ike Climbers are legit too

 

[downbfordays]

Right before the ridley part "#47" flashes briefly in the bottom right of the screen, what do you guys think it means?

 

[MLGF]

They have made another clone slot?
No wait, Slippy is the 47th slot.
As in he's not in.

Ah screw it, I dunno.

 

[HRR2b23]

I saw that, I don't really think it means anything, could just be a leftover marker that wasn't cut from the video.

 

[PMS | LEVEL 100 MAGIKARP]

No it definitely means something. 47 is obviously referencing the fact that there are 41 slots plus 5 clone spots, in order to trick us into believing that ridley will actually be the 47th and final character, even though there are only 46 slots

slippy, though, he has a chance. same thing with pichu

 

[GeZ]

Ike Climbers seems like giga bowser/ sopo joke character material. Slippy had his own standing and running animation but everything else was just fox's stuff, so we can rule that out as a character, though you could've done that before if you had a brain and knew the PMBR isn't ********.

 

[downbfordays]

Also it looks like Slippy was using fox's move set, see 3:17 - 3:20 , 3:30 - 3:32 , i recommend using .25 speed to look it goes fast

 

[Xinc]

Not sure what to say. Probably Ridley is an april fool's joke, but Ike Climbers will probably be something like HOLD R in the start like Giga Bowser. Probably Slippy will be a vertex hack.

 

[downbfordays]

Someone on the PM subreddit just noticed that event 47 in melee is the even where you fight on Majora's mask, so possible skull kid, or the three mask young link everyone has been asking for? Just a theory, seems plausible to me though...

 

[Jadeyes]

Nintendo Power #47 featured Star Fox on it's cover. Including Slippy.

Gosh. This is worse than Half-Life 3 paranoia.

I BEAT YOU TO IT

also it's pretty noticeable at regular speed.

Also also character slot #47 confirmed. We half life baybee

Oh hey, that was me, unless somebody else also posted it. Neat.

Even if it is my "theory", not sure whether to believe it or not. It's just a number, could mean anything.

 

[downbfordays]

but i provided time stamps

 

[Guilu]

There's also a specific jump animation on Slippy as well, when he gets gimped off Fountain of Dreams by Metaknight.

It's the one that makes the most sense to me so far, and personally i'm hoping for the new young link

 

[Guilu]

They could also just be trolling us, and by the looks of it they are doing a fine job.

 

[hotdogturtle]

Gosh. This is worse than Half-Life 3 paranoia.

Spoiler

See what else is displayed prominently? Fox's metal legs, something which is implied but not as visually noticeable in Melee.

Fox leg buffs confirmed. Finally we'll be able to kill with upsmash without having to wait for triple digit damage on heavy characters. Bair will probably become a horizontal uair.

 

[BronzeGreekGod]

I def feel like at least something in this video was a legit reveal.. Like slippy is possible, maybe (esp since shes a clone and thats what they said theyre gona be gravitating towards). But Riddly has a chance. They trolled us with the pichu challenger approaching last year, so they may think we're gona assume riddly is a troll too, thus throwing us off with trickery!

 

[downbfordays]

I don't think Ridley is real, for the simple fact that he has not been confirmed or denied of Smash 4 yet, and the PMBR has said they wont use any SSB4 newcomers

 

[MonkUnit]

Like slippy is possible, maybe (esp since shes a clone

Slippy isn't a girl

 

[Mac360]

When it said "Coming in 20XX" at the end, are they just referencing or subliminally hinting at Megaman X joining the roster?

 

[MonkUnit]

No, 20XX is a Melee joke about how in 20XX everyone will be using Fox and be frame perfect and stuff.

 

[GeZ]

Slippy isn't a girl

Yeah, that's @ Yung Mei

 

[BronzeGreekGod]

Slippy isn't a girl

who cares lol

 

[Giygacoal]

Slippy should have a green laser.

That would make him uncreative though.

 

[Yung Mei]

what the hell does that have to do with me, im confused

 

[GeZ]

Slippy is no grill. Meling is sovereign grill.

 

[Banjodorf]

Technically the exact wording is that they won't use a character confirmed for Smash 4, as in no backporting. If someone happens to be confirmed and they were already working on them, or already released them, they aren't just going to remove them.

So I wouldn't count that out quite yet.

Why do I also want Slippy all of the sudden? God damn it!

 

[Yung Mei]

what the hell

im totally a grill dude

 

[mini_moose]

Maybe the ike climbers mean that they found a way to make climber characters with non ice climber moveset.......pichu climbers(pulse n minum) confirmed

I can agree with that but what backfires the theory is that I could be doing ridley just in case he's not playable again
