I might be late with this thread but I can't find anyone else talking about this. Does anyone like the new announcer for when you select the characters? He isn't as trying hard to be epic like brawls announcer but not as Metal as the Melee announcer. I really like it but the way he says toon link makes me want to puke though.
(p.s first post don't be mean plz thx)

Not as metal? What's that supposed to mean haha. Do you mean...brütal???

I don't like him as much as the previous two announcers. Melee's announcer was my favorite one because that game oh so dear to my heart, and I think he did the best job in general. Brawl's was fine. This one is sounds kind of like a distilled Brawl announcer voice, or Brawl announcer-lite, however way I'm supposed to word it.

Melee was the second game I ever played so maybe I'm biased when I say that announcer is my favorite. I thought the brawl announcer was like some fat opera singer that walked into a cage fighting arena trying to pump everybody up. Also if this games title screen doesn't scream" SUPER SMAAAAAAAAASH BROOOOTHEEEEERRRRRSS" like in Brawl I will not buy

Yeah Melee was one of the first games I ever played so I feel that. I hope he yells that too. I feel like they didn't put that in Brawl because they made that game have a more serious tone, which is a bit silly. This game looks like it's taking a better, lighthearted approach like the first two games so hopefully that's there haha.

I like this new announcer a lot, personally. I feel like a lot of the sound effects in this game are similar to Smash 64, and it's really nostalgic and awesome. The announcer kinda reminds me of the 64 announcer, a little. Other effects that are similar are the sound of getting smashed, and some of the menu/waiting themes.

Also, welcome to the boards! hope you enjoy it here.

I really like this new announcer
And I don't know if you noticed that but he seems more expressive, I mean he is not on the same tune like the Brawl one did
Yeah of course Brawl announcer was epic and loud, but was always saying the characters' name in the same way
This new announcer is just more alive, when is says "MEGA MAAAAAAAAN" he looks hyped like a fan, when he says "Wii fiit trainer" he has a british sound accent, when he says "LLLLLLLLLLINK" he is so funny, the "Pikeuchuuuu" looks depressing as if he didn't like him, the "GRENIIIIINJA" looks like he is going to **** someone.
I may be the only one to spot thoses little touhces but I love it

Also "LIEUL MAC" makes me laugh

He defiantly has more personality than the brawl announcer. From the three second clip of master hand screaming in pain I can say he voices the Master Hand well but I can't stress enough how terribly he says Toon Link. The only way I can describe it is that he is saying it like hes impersonating someone he hates. Also The way he says Bowser combined with his new victory theme is so epic.

I'll probably need to play the actual game to make a decision, but from demos and videos, I like it so far.

I have way too many fond memories of growing up with Melee and 64 to make an unbiased judgement, but I thought Brawl's announcer was pretty good with only a few badly delivered names.

Really ? Master Hand seems to have the same voice from Brawl in the 3DS trailer :/

I haven't played classic mode in brawl since 2008 so maybe I didn't notice that the death screams were different. All I remember of Master hand in Brawl was his entrance laugh

Does anyone know who's doing the voice this time around? It sounds similar to the Brawl announcer, but better in my opinion.

I lived in a relatively lower-middle class family until the mid 2000's, so I only owned the N64 when I was young. So I guess we can relate to each other on that respect :). Also, I agree 100% that making SSB4 light-hearted is the best option.

I like the new announcer. Like SMH said he's much more expressive, not to mention the menu theme is pretty good too.
(Can't wait to hear how he announces snake :))
Can't wait to see how he announces Ridley. Gotta get some hype for that one.
RRRRRRIIIDDDLEEEEEEEEEEEY.

Maury: Sakurai said Snake will be returning for Smash 4....*opens envelope*.....the lie detector test determined. THAT WAS A LIE
Sakurai: [Laughs]

So, who IS the announcer this time? Is it still Pat Cashman or is it a new dude? And if it is a new dude, then who is the new dude (or is it impossible to tell until the credits for the game appears)?
