Morning, Smashboards, rewatched Up! recently and remembered why is best Pixar movie, so changed avatar to Mr. Fredericksen.

Also changed signature for Angel and Devil/Digital Waifus Angewomon and LadyDevimon slaping each other. Why? 'Cuz that was the first contact with a cat fight I had as a kid and still love it.
Where's



???

And obviously Zero Suit Mach Rider will be a separate character and all:




Tbh, I think I'd prefer if they keep Mach Rider's gender ambiguous, a la Pyro (TF2) if they ever want to revisit Mach Rider. Then again, "You are Mach Rider"...

If the female is indeed Mach Rider, you have to question why she still keeps the masculinity in the costume (we can see the abs, male chest, etc.). Is Mach Rider some sort of title/persona? Does she want to keep the legacy, thus she's disguised as a male? Or is there another reason? There's potential for an interesting story... if Nintendo ever wants to revisit the Mach Rider game. I just don't know if they will use the female version as she appears in the Arcade version. Then again...

"You are Mach Rider"...

Needs more Adeleine.
They're unlockable characters.

So, I defeated Alternis... And biggest ****ing plot twist ever. What the ****?!

Alternis and Ringabel look identical. The characters go back in time to the beginning of the story. Alternis had an identical diary to Ringabel's, which has the implications that Ringabel himself is actually Alternis from yet another timeline or something.

Mind completely blown.
I saw it a mile away. Can't remember what made me think of the possibility, it had something to do with the book. Also, the fact that Alternis had a crush on Edea, and those two not appearing in the same place until you battle him.

Now you are in the so called "dreaded second half." I personally am ok with this part of the game, it should be a little shorter yes, but the majority says this part sucks hard.

"Pop quiz! What do Misty, Brock, Cynthia, Iris, and Ash all have in common? That's right—they're all Pokémon Trainers! This Pokémon Master in the making is the same. Back in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, he fought to be the very best—like no one ever was. To smash them was his real test—to launch them was his cause!"

Hands down best trophie description in the game.
I love this! I really wish they would have talked about how Ivysaur, Squirtle, Pichu, and Mewtwo were in smash also.

Lucas trophy description:
"Before adventuring, Lucas was a timid, cautious boy. His journey has made him a stronger person. Maybe he met someone to spend his life with... Hang on—we're moving way too fast! For now, remember that Lucas and Ness are favorites in the hearts of EarthBound fans"

Isn't it lovable how they acknowledge it to troll us?

Two things :

Firstly,I wonder if the,er,smash coins received from the fights in the demo (Yes,you can collect them,I have around 7k maybe.) could be transferred to the actual game.
Second off,I found my Smash Badge from the Best Buy thing. I wonder what value it could have. :troll:

Also,does anyone else know Bravely Second has been announced already?

Yeah, I've been following it since I finished Bravely Default. There was even a trailer for it during the direct with with Shulk and the new 3ds.

Sakurai at his finest.
Actually, the trophy descriptions were written by the same script writer as the EarthBound series. I don't remember his name, though.

Of course, the translation team at Nintendo Treehouse is also very creative when translating humor. Their work with the Mario RPGs and Kid Icarus: Uprising really shows it.

You know, I've been thinking about this for a while and I'm.wondering if Ash is a translation mistake (as Red and Ash share the same name in Japan) or if they're really referencing the anime in this game.
Although it's probably the latter.
It's an anime reference.

English|Japanese|Romaji( and notes)
Ash|サトシ|Satoshi (Homage to the creator of Pokémon, Satoshi Tajiri)
Red|レッド|Reddo (Transliteration of Red)

The Japanese description specifically refers to Satoshi.

Let us know when your fingers stop moving from the cramps.
I didn't have much problems with that game, to be honest.

"Finally, Sakurai shared a tidbit about the trophies in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U 3DS. Akihiro Toda – known for the texts in the Mother series – wrote the descriptions"

http://nintendoeverything.com/sakur...bros-wii-u3ds-and-more-in-new-famitsu-column/

Now go buy EarthBound on your Wii U. Better yet, buy a Wii U JUST for EarthBound.
There you go.

I always though Itoi wrote the script... strange.

The trophy descriptions in this game are the best till date. No surprise coming from a writer of the Mother series. The localization team did an awesome job too.

Well, there's a difference between writing the story and writing the actual script. Likely, Toda had to consult with Itoi regarding what he could or could not write for the characters. After all, the story and characters need consistency.

Speaking of Bravely Second, here's some footage of gameplay, along with who the remaining party characters are:

This may sound wierd, but this new DBZ game, Xenoverse, doesnt look half bad. Its the first DBZ game IN A LOOOOONG TIME that I looked at and didnt immediately groan. I mean its still Tenkaichi style, but it doesnt look all that bad.


Some people who played the Beta also said the gameplay has been improved a lot from the previous game, Battle of Z (fixing the dependance on the team meter for more flashy moves, much better Ki management system and so on)

I've noticed the Trophy descriptions this time don't have much spoilers as before. But, of course, the Sheik and Lucina trophies have.

Looks interesting. I might get it if Hercule is a playable character. :awesome:

Find some of the mixed reviews kind of interesting because I guess most of the complaints were about things that I was already expected to be an issue with the game from the time it was originally announced for the 3DS, so I was kind of expecting this.

I was actually more surprised that there weren't more mixed reviews then there has been so far actually. It's still been fairly positive in general.

I wonder if people will give custom equipment a chance in tournaments.

I mean, I doubt it and I see why we wouldn't want them, but I'd like to be able make :4lucina: and :4darkpit: distinct from their sources without wasting practice.

Sheik is from a 1998 game, it's like if they made a Wart trophy and say it was all a dream, everybody already knows.

Doesn't sound interesting. Will wait for RB3 and/or BT4

What do you guys think about this tier list? Found it on SonyGAF:



Why is the majority of the Zelda cast bottom tier yet Sheik is at the top?

Custom moves, Im pretty sure there's talks to make them a part of tournaments. Custom equipment though, like speed buff shoes and stuff like that, I dunno. I think thats a bit TOO much variables to play around with.

Because shields are stupidly safe and shut down all slow attackers. Shiek is not a slow attacker.

Yeah, I know, I know... But being able to do what Sakurai forgot to do with those two, changing even one attribute, would help me accept them a bit better.

Why is duck hunt at the top? He's not that good. I think the only reason he's so high up there is because who he is. If it was any other character with the same exact moveset I think they would be lower.

I think an Itsy-Bitsy Spider bet you to post that a week ago.

That, and with the game only having 4 weeks, this isn't gonna last long.

Hmm, could have sworn I saw people say Dark Pit is slightly slower but stronger and that Lucina is mad-fast and lacks the tipper. But I agree. Honestly, these characters should have had some of theyr custom moves made into default moves to at least have them stick out more, but oh well.
