In terms of songs, trophies, or stickers, no. There was a scrapped song that was planned called MORINOKINOKO (Mushroom Forest), but it's unknown if it's referring to the song "Beware The Forest's Mushrooms" from Super Mario RPG or "In The Mushroom Forest" from Mario Party.
Totally not here*Sees Geno discussion*
I wouldn't be surprised if Psycho is watching this.
Eh nevermind actually. I was feeling antsy and ready to debate when I wrote that, but I'm pretty zen right now so I'll just let it go.
Ah ok, thanks. I couldn't quite remember. I've heard about that scrapped song before...It's sure interesting that it could be either song, though I would have loved some Super Mario RPG content. Even if it's just a song, or a sticker or two, Super Mario RPG is one of my fave Mario games..ah well, what can ya do...
I mean, Super Mario RPG is like the only game that I actually like Mario in. I can actually connect to him. I just loved his character and everything.
For me, that would be Super Smash Bros. Melee. I like the flow Mario in that game has.
That's mainly contributed to Mario being nerfed in Brawl.
Funny. Falcon have more energy in Brawl. (personality wise)
Brawl Mario had a poker face the entire game. >_>
That was a mistranslation. In reality it's more along the lines that he COULD add more characters and stages, but he wants to do more then that.
Many interpret this as Brawl being the limit, but I seriously doubt that we'll only be getting around forty characters (transformation included). More likely Sakurai is referring to SSB4's roster.Sakurai said:
If I remember correctly, he did come out and say that there will be new characters.
Yeah, my analysis is pretty much that they're going to try and make ~50 characters work as best as they possibly can, and call it there. They've got a pretty big team working on balancing, and Namco-Bandai in on it (which was not the case when that quote was originally made) so I think we'll still see a decent number of additions, but not any more than 10-11. My roster I recently posted came to exactly 49 characters, minus transformations, and that seems reasonable to me.
You have a total polish boner.
My philosophy is quality over quantity. Sugar coating all the flaws with rainbows is not the way to go.
Well, we're pretty much looking at the same thing at slightly different angles. I want the gameplay and mechanics to support a wide variety of playstyles - something that is a particular problem now.
Thanks alot. Very interesting.
This was said after Namco joined the team (The announcement was on June, 2012 and this came slightly later).
I remember him saying something similar after E2 2011.
I don't think he said anything in regards to the roster reaching the limit before July, 2012, although shortly after Smash 4's confirmation at June, 2011, Sakurai did mention that he wanted to do more than just increase the roster count to 50 and double the amount of stage.
What flaws in particular. Ignoring that Brawl wasn't designed the way you wanted it to, are there really that many glaring problems for you take a such a stance.
That's what I was thinking of.
Well for starters, a lot of the content felt half assed and the gameplay took a lot of unnecessary liberties that ether does nothing or created more problems.
Yet to most people, the jump from Melee to Brawl was this. Chances are that most people will be finding the transition from Brawl to Sm4sh to be the biggest jump since Melee.
Random tripping, shields being too powerful, chain grabs, stale moves, no knockback scaling, no damage scaling (though it's not really needed in Brawl), way too far blast zones, OP items, and too many stage gimmicks.
To be fair you must admit that the stages and the items are completely optional.
While you are right, I would like it if I wasn't limited to certain stages because all the other ones were too lazy for more diverse stage layouts and instead went for stupid gimmicks. Seriously, a number of them are really lazy stage designs. You had ones like Skyworld, New Pork City, and arguably Norfair were just generic stages painted with appropriately colors. The thing I liked about stages like Hyrule Castle, Isle Delfino, Castle Siege, and Onett are that you really feel like they were extracted from their respective games, like you're actually fighting in that location. A lot more stages need to be like that.
No, I think it's natural to want both, but sometimes you can't or that quantity can come in other forms. Take example with BlazBlue me and Manly always go on about. The cast is currently consisting of 23 characters, a little under half of the expected roster for Sm4sh. Despite having a much smaller roster, the playstyles of these characters along with the general mechanics make them very deep and provide both a tall skill ladder to climb, but much more replay value in general.
