I just read that Hyrule Warriors is not selling very well in Japan, that sucks because I thought the whole Ghirahim fan base would rush for it.

I hope Beedrill is in pokken.

You just had to say that, didn't you?

I just read that Hyrule Warriors is not selling very well in Japan, that sucks because I thought the whole Ghirahim fan base you'll rush for it.

Really? Because everywhere I read says its increased Wii U sales.

We will get more smash run

Did you know, Smash Run is a mode that you can play.

I hope Beedrill is in pokken.

But will he be low tier? That is the question.

Zelda has been doing better in the west for some time now. So that might have to do with it. Aside from the Wii-U being the Number 2 console there, and handhelds doing better altogether.

I'm not sure Hyrule Warriors will do all that well over here though. Not just because of the Wii-U either. I want to say that it has to do with Dynasty Warriors games not having a big draw here.

Hey, RPGs and fighting games are entirely different

 

[FlareHabanero]

Here's to seeing Golurk.

Because you gotta give grapplers some loving.

 

[Mypantisgone]

Does anyone have a link to a place where I can find ALL the picture from the leaker?

Also there was someone saying the leaker would post pictures of Zamus, Dark Pit and stuff, did that happen?

 

[Knight Dude]

But of course. Look at Mewtwo in Melee.

Here's to seeing Golurk.

Golurk would be cool. Though he might be more like the Jack robots in Tekken. I'm thinking Hawlucha and Machamp could act more as the traditional grapplers.

Now that I think of it, Chesnaught would work really well as a Counter-centric fighter.

 

[Starcutter]

According to Bulbapedia, Bandai Namco is taking fighter suggestions so it seems that any Pokemon can get in. I hope enough people ask for Wailord Snorlax!

Where can I suggest a fighter?

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Where can I suggest a fighter?

Yes, this

 

[Knight Dude]

Where can I suggest a fighter?

I think you might be able to suggest stuff to Harada on Twitter or Facebook or something like that. I don't know for sure.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Everyone tweet them this: カメックス

 

[Starcutter]

I'm almost certain that there will be more than 300 different suggestions.

If the roster is about 20, narrowing it down might be kinda hard.

 

[Radical Bones]

Yes! A Direct has been announced for 3DS in Japan! Not NintendoAmericO, Nintendo Official. No word on a Western Direct as yet, but I'm sure it'll happen!

 

[TJ-Works]

For anyone who's into ORAS, have a look at this.

Speaking of ORAS, they've announced some pre-order gifts for European customers. Including a figure depending on which version you pre-order. But...

Is it me or do these figures look like aaaasss? Groudon looks like he's standing on a crumplred Jaffa cake, and Kyogre's trying to avoid touching the gooey water.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Why is it called ORAS

Shouldn't Alpha be first?

ASOR

#TeamASOR

 

[Sapphire Dragon]

Where can I suggest a fighter?

Yes, this

Tweet #ポッ拳 and then name your desired character(s).

For anyone who's into ORAS, have a look at this.

Those look amaaazing, I don't care what the other guy says. XD Love that Kyogre. I preordered with Best Buy a long time ago so I hope we can get something.

 

[Knight Dude]

For anyone who's into ORAS, have a look at this.

Yeah. They don't look as good as the Soul Silver, Heart Gold, and Platinum ones. Groudon itself isn't terrible though. Just it's stand.

Why is it called ORAS

ASOR

#TeamASOR

Because ASOR sounds like the name for a Barbarian. "Behold, the mighty ASOR!!

I am that other guy. I just posted this on another thread, so I reposted here in quote to save rewriting it all.

Unless they show a better screenshot somewhere, I'm not impressed by them.

ORAS makes me think your just typoing Orcas

A pic of Kyogre doesn't help that

Yes! A Direct has been announced for 3DS in Japan! Not NintendoAmericO, Nintendo Official. No word on a Western Direct as yet, but I'm sure it'll happen!

I remember a month ago there was that third party direct that I watched just to find out what they were covering, so I might be able to watch a rerun of this one to see what's coming up.

 

[FlappyFalco]

Welp, Direct incoming. But unless it's announced to be international, I don't expect much.

 

[ahannoush4]

I don't see why they wouldn't announce anything Smash related ... the game comes out in JAPAN in 2 weeks ... JAPANESE direct.

Any Smash news Sakurai will just update the site and Miiverse himself after, just like the Pacman announcement which was US only.

 

[Lozjam]

Welp, Direct incoming. But unless it's announced to be international, I don't expect much.

If it isn't international I expect this. "Hello, and welcome to the direct. You are going to be able to play smash brothers before all those other losers in other countries. Here is the full roster and here is a ton of cool reveal trailers! The other countries can **** off!"

 

[aldelaro5]

So, I made a straw yesterday that for some completely weird reasons, I may have got it right!

I was saying that this Firday would have been exactly a month after Paper Mario stage reveal. There was also a tease behind it.

Thursday: 3ds Japan direct announcement for Friday.

Did I seriously got this right all along?

Get hyped anyway!

 

[Oniric Spriter]

Very likely they'll show something Smash related. In the other hand we could have something new for 3DS so that isn't that bad.

 

[Lozjam]

This seems appropriate

 

[aldelaro5]

What is more unbelievable is that my school starts at 8:15 AM EST tomorrow and I wake up at 6:30 AM EST usually. I leave to go to school at 7:50 AM EST.

I can't believe I can watch this direct with that time.

 

[TewnLeenk]

6 am Direct? That means I get to wake up to the news of a glorious character reveal I hope

 

[aldelaro5]

Well, Paper Mario is glorious

But anything can happen...

If Sakurai tweets today, it;s real hype.

 

[Sil]

I'm not really expecting much, especially not anything big, (inb4 Ridley) but hopefully I'll be wrong.


And 200 posts. Woo.

 

[TewnLeenk]

Well, Paper Mario is glorious

But anything can happen...

If Sakurai tweets today, it;s real hype.

Which reminds me, I started replaying Paper Mario 64 a couple days ago.

 

[aldelaro5]

Which reminds me, I started replaying Paper Mario 64 a couple days ago.

And I could beat TTYD today actually.

But I need to replay PM64 at one point because I forgot so much good stuff from this game (thanks Wii VC).

 

[Jason the Yoshi]

6 am Direct? That means I get to wake up to the news of a glorious character reveal I hope

6 AM at what time zone?

 

[TewnLeenk]

6 AM at what time zone?

Central.

 

[Jason the Yoshi]

Central.

That makes it easy, I live in Minnesota.

(Insert gif from Swift Fox's sig here)

 

[TitanTeaTime]

Oh goodee, a Direct I can watch because it's not at midnight over here this time!
It's just that it'll mostly be in a language I don't understand.
Anyway, I fully expect a character reveal then. Just not anyone us in the west care about. It won't be Ridley and it won't be that damn dog. Pretty sure Japan cares about neither of them. As for Bowser jr however...

 

[Logsmash]

6 AM? I'm thinking I might stay up for it, assuming I can keep the hype going until then.

 

[DraginHikari]

There hasn't really been smash news in non-international directs before, so unless we get an announcement later for it internationally I'm not expecting much

 

[Lozjam]

6 AM? I'm thinking I might stay up for it, assuming I can keep the hype going until then.

Why don't you just go to sleep and wake up early?
