Guys it's gotten to the point where new trophies are barely showing up in the shop.
I'm starting to get desperate.

I seriously have 600+ trophies and no Ghirahim.
Is he, like, the reward for getting all custom moves or something?

I guess I forgot to mention it: spam trophy rush because you will realise the shop will rarely help you considering that it takes so much for a reset.

I got him off the shop. Just hold out hope and you'll get him eventually.

Even Trophy Rush is only giving me 3 new ones per run.
Also the trophy shop re-stocks after every match/Smash Run game/Solo mode run IIRC.

It's great we have some developers with a sense of humour. xD

I said "spam".

Because getting 3 is VERY good if the shop is no longer useful.

I assume you didn't live customs moves unlocking yet?

Ok, so, you use a home buffer glitch to get the most of the red wrench in the reward roulette in classic. That implies highest comfortable intensity and you spam for every characters since the rng are screwed up so that you have almost next to no chance to get the move you want if you don't pick the character associated. Even if you do tough, equipment make this a pain as weknow how pokemon rng works, even if you have 1/8 chances to get the last move, you could spent 30 moves to get it. Btw, this is only IF you get a move because I'm sure equipement is more probable than moves. So, you spam like crazy and sometimes, you get gold from beating the classic (trust me, there's a point when you quit the classic because didn't got the move).

I ended up with 125 classic done and 50k gold and I spent like 30k to get the last 3 trophies I could get.

Also, if you think smash run is better for the moves, no because it's the most inconsistent thing I tried (never got after 25 attempts the move from little mac wasting 6 minutes each time...).

So, just be happy to get 3 trophies because you got them and it's done.

It's kinda suspicious how the biggest line has 12 slots.
However, 12x4 = 48. 2 slots may be missing for Miis and the Random choice...

...But I shouldn't remake anymore hypothesis or I'll regret it again.

Hello there, Pudding Pop. And Bowser Jr..
What are you guys doing on the Roster?
*pffft*
YOU TWO AREN'T ON THE WEBSITE YET!

Remember what happened the last time someone theorized something based on the roster layout?
Spoiler: It wasn't Mewtwo.

 

[Knight Dude]

Damn, Ganondorf is looking pretty clean for the most part. I was waiting to see him in HD. So that's cool.

I just finished few matches in Glory mode. I still have a long way to go. But I think I'm getting a bit better with Mega Man. Had like 5 matches with this Robin Player and won 3 of them.

 

[Vintage Creep]

We're getting a Direct soon. Jigglypuff and Mr. Game & Watch are the only remaining veterans to be revealed, and then it's Bowser Jr. and Duck Hunt Duo's time. They're going to be revealed in a video obviously, and it's going to be in a Direct.
Next Friday. Book it.

 

[Knight Dude]

Now if only my connection wasn't such butt, I could get some more matches in. Well, I'll try and see if I can beat Classic on 9.0.

What I think the roster could look like:

1st Row:
2nd Row:
3rd Row:
4th Row:

Substitute is Random
The top and bottom have 12. The middle rows have 13.
Notice that the order changed from the E3 order to one closely resembling the 3DS roster order.
​

Duck Hunt with Zelda/Metriod/KI/FE row does look strange though.

 

[Blargg888]

So I just got Ice climbers, Lucas, and Squirtle in the shop all at once. What are the chances?

Guys i think i'm made out of salt

Oh good. Now we can sacrifice you to the SmashBoards gods and replenish our stock of salt.

 

[Blargg888]

Double post
sorry.

That can't be the final layout.
It doesn't have Mewtwo and Wolf *cough*

 

[Knight Dude]

Some mid-animation stuff looks weird. Seriously, it looks like she broke her spine and her neck at the same time. I get that this stuff works better in motion. But I can't help but laugh a bit.

I got a few more pictures to post I guess.

Look at what I've read on TV Tropes about Metal Mario and Pink Gold Peach in Mario Kart.

Metal Mario. Americans think he's a worthless and unoriginal Mario clone, while Japanese players love giving him Alternative Character Interpretation, playing as him in Mario Kart 7, and treating him as The Rival to Mario. It's also the case in Mario Kart 8 with Rose Gold Peach (a completely new addition that left a lot of players dumbfounded).

From this page: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/AmericansHateTingle

The Japanese really like their alternate versions of characters, don't they? (Though Dark Pit is a different character, but you get the idea.)

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Well baby mario and regular mario COULD make sense canonically in the same game because they've done that with time travel before

But what the hell is metal mario suppose to be?

It's just a power up

Now Dry Bowser on the other hand is too awesome that he is an exception

 

[Knight Dude]

Apparently the next Transformers cartoon won't have Optimus Prime as a character. Well, that's disappointing. Because he's clearly the best one.

You'd think that they'd learn from what happened in the 80's. But no, we can't have Optimus Prime the ultra badass.

The funny thing is, I love Metal Mario. He was the best and most awesome power-up in Super Mario 64, and a cool boss in Sup[er Smash Bros, so having him in MK8 is a double hit of nostalgia.
Also, I like Pink Gold Peach because everyone hates her.

Would you say hating Pink Gold Peach and Metal Mario, from a development time standpoint is ridiculous?

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

The games out

why's it matter if they show hidden characters

[Frostwraith]

All you need to create Metal Mario or Pink Gold Peach is texture swapping an existing model, so they likely took less effort to make.

Then again, characters in Mario Kart aren't nearly as complex to make as the ones in Smash. All you need is to make models and some animations and you're done. Unlike Smash, you don't have to think of an entire moveset and playstyle for them.

It's hard to say, though. Smash and Mario Kart are completely different things when it comes to character selection. The former is a lot more complex than the latter.

Anyway, what can be said about actually applies much more to Metal Mario and Pink Gold Peach. In the latter cases, all that was necessary to change was the model's texture and the weight parameter. They are even more low effort than the clone trio in Smash 4.

I dunno, I know nothing about this new cartoon, but Im not opposed to trying out new things and new casts. Again, I dont know whats this new thing is about and why they decided to go this way, but whatevs.

That's so stupid! There is no transformers without Optimus Prime

I can understand that. It's not like we shouldn't at least give it a chance. But Optimus Prime is the mascot of the whole franchise, it'd be weird to exclude him. And the last time they did, the toy sales were worse off than before. On paper(or on screen in our case)it seems like history could repeat itself.

Guys.

We haven't been seeing Pics of the Day with much content in them lately. This has happened before, and always for one reason...

That's right. A Smash Wii U Direct is coming. Hold onto your butts!

For one month, you'll have a pink username. That's all there is to it.

Try to find out who pranked you, for a challenge.

Sakurai is seriously trolling hard with today's Pic, especially with the modes names being censored.

If anything, Transformers died soon as Michael Bay happened (and Transformers Animated to a lesser extent). Leaving out the poster boy of the Autobots would be a huge mistake on Hasbro's part since everyone loves him (Hell, even to the point where people hated his death in the first Transformers Movie and Hot Rod being his replacement).

 

[Kenith]

You found out the culprit?

Well, Transformers Prime was a really good series. So I wouldn't call the franchise dead or anything.

Hopefully we'll get some good surprises. Namely with the game modes this time around.
