Ridley just would not really work...wow I convinced that sakurai makes crappy decisions
1) lets make the most highly demanded character in the west a boss makes sense
2) 3ds first? the wii u sales will be screwed
3) starting to hate the 3ds it's no longer a disc if the 3ds held wii u back, hint it did
4) instead of highly demanded characters we get 2x zelda, 2x links, 2x samus
That's a LOT of reconfirmed items in there! I'm overwhelmed yet again!Anyone posted this yet?

It's got a whole bunch of item screenshots, including the Franklin Badge, much to my pleasure.
Looks like third party items are a thing now:
Are you really going to do this on two separate forums?
Is...is that a Rally-X item?Anyone posted this yet?

No kidding. Thank goodness for its FD version.Looks like Palutena's Temple is the new Hyrule Temple/New Pork City.

It's from Uprising.And is the Drill item from Super Mario galaxy? Or Drill Dozer?

The fact that both the Franklin Badge and Mr. Saturn are back makes me feel a little better about Lucas' chances.We finally have Mother content confirmed for Smash 4.
The one thing I hated about New Pork City is how abstract and disjointed the layout was. I'm getting the same vibe from this stage, which isn't a good thing. Might be the one stage I end up using the plain mode more than the regular one.

The more i think about it the more I think Ridley is gonna be playable and stage hazard will be Meta Ridley or something (or will switch to Alfonso when Ridley joins the battle).Such mixed feelings about this direct. It was a glorious waterfall of info, but somehow I felt unsatisfied after watching it. Can't lay a finger on why that is though, just a weird feeling, especially since it actually was great direct. Some things that stood out to me.
Releasedates. Well, it certainly wasn't what I was expecting. I always felt that it made so much more sense to release the WiiU version first, I never really considered getting the 3ds version first. Of course if they can finish the 3ds version way earlier and then pack the WiiU version to the brink I'm all for it. At least we can play Smash4 till Smash4 comes out, lol.
Ridley. I don't feel like the Ridley thing was a troll. He said that other stages will have stage bosses as well, then he showed Ridley's shadow on Pyrosphere. That ain't trolling imo, that's just a straight confirm that Ridley is the stage hazard. The only reason I think Ridley can still be playable is because there are multiple versions of Ridley, so that there is a version of Ridley as a stage hazard doesn't really de-confirm him. The fact they only showed a shadow only tells me that the specific version they used for the stage hazard Ridley is so specific that it might have been a too obvious tell to another Ridley being in. This Ridley is definitely a stage hazard though, no doubt about it.
No transformations. I'm very happy with this change. Of course this change was probably made to help the 3ds performance, but the transformation times always bothered me to no end. From a gameplay perspective I always hated the possibility to just swap characters mid-match and from a technical level I hated that the game had to load in a different character each time someone switched. Good riddance I say.
Pokemon. As a supporter of having Mewtwo back it's kinda hard to get excited over Greninja as it just slims Mewtwo's chances. That said, I always knew Gamefreak was gonna demand a last gens pkmn into this game so I can only be happy it's Greninja because it's definitely the coolest pkmn they could've chosen from this gen. I really dig the whole Strider thing he has going on in his moves. Plus he has a scarf, characters with scarf are cool by default. Also glad that Charizard goes solo this time around. The movesets of Squirtle and Ivysaur always struck me as uninspired so I don't mind their loss. Charizard also looks like he got some cooler stuff this time around so that's nice as well. I already explained what my thoughts are on transformations, so you might understand I'm very pleased the forced swapping gimmick is gone from Charizard. Kinda sad for the loss of Ivysaur since I do like the pkmn, but I feel like this smash is gonna be better thanks to that loss so I ain't complaining.
Items, AT's, Pokeball. They really have gone all out with this. So much stuff to play with, non competitive smash is gonna be more fun then ever. Great that they implemented the Masterball, let the legendary battles commence. Also thank god they didn't show Isaac or Shulk here as one of the AT's. They could've gone out of their way and destroys tons of dreams with those AT's so I'm happy they didn't (yet). Favourite AT for me is Dark Samus, I always thought she would make for an excellent non-clone character so seeing her being unique as an AT pleases me.
Zero Suit Samus. I gotta say, that redesign looks so effing cool. Brawl's ZZS always had a very-generic-blond-girl-in-spandex thing going on which just didn't seem to have any personality. This one however looks hella cool. The design on her suit looks great, her moves look really cool and her face seems to have a very nice anime look. A character I kinda ignored all this time is definitely on my to-play list. Props to the design team of her.
Smash run. I thought it looked very cool for a singleplayer mode, so I was kinda disappointed it was just gonna be another multiplayer mode. The idea seems fun though. I hope you can play that against AI as well cause I ain't planning on going to people to play and it doesn't seem you can play it online. Even sadder to look back on brawl now, this mode already looked way cooler than SSE just because most of the enemies weren't generic.
Online. Well, it looked like they separated the different playstyles well so that's good. Though I have to say it still seems awfully barebones for an online game. Oh well, as long as the netcode is gonna be good this time around, I won't be complaining. The all stages FD idea for the all glory mode is pretty cool, though I wish they made a Battlefield version of all stages as well for that mode, it just doesn't seem balanced enough to just have FD for you're competitive online mode. I'm hoping they might rethink that.
I can't think of anything else that stood out atm, but so far I'm liking what I'm seeing, even if I haven't seen anything yet I was hoping for.
it saying aust and new zeland get the wii u in summer and 3ds in winter what????Hey guys. Note the fine print from the description of this photo from the official Smash Facebook page.
That wasn't Ridley's wing. It was the end of his tail.The more i think about it the more I think Ridley is gonna be playable and stage hazard will be Meta Ridley or something (or will switch to Alfonso when Ridley joins the battle).

Look at that wing. It's grey, not purple like Ridley usually is.
Like, with Waluigi, Sheik, Zero Suit, etc. Sakurai is very clear that he knows people wants them and then comes right out and confirms or deconfirms.
With Ridley, he was like a certain character will be a boss and stage hazard, rather than saying i know you want him to be playable but hes a boss! Or whatever.
I think he's just going for the long con.
The Earth should be like burnt toast with the Sun that close.
FD is absolutely stunning this time around!
there, I did like, half of itFor the music-lovers out there, it would be great if we could begin to compile a list of all of the music tracks featured in the 04/08/2014 Nintendo Direct presentation.. I'm gonna try to possibly get started if I get a chance, but there were a lot of music tracks utilized (appropriately so)! All I know is that I heard something (whether the original track or a remix/arrangement) from every single Super Smash Bros. game as well as likely boatloads of other games (such as Pokemon X and Y music when Charizard showed up); thanks to the developers for giving the SSB64 music lots of love! <3 Much appreciated in advance!
And for the GIF makers out there, it would be great if we could get GIFs for...like everything XD. (primarily the Greninja segment, although I have a feeling that someone's doing that already...) XD
The animation looked rigid. Brawl's was absolutely beautiful, for both times you fight him.I don't know about you, but the Ridley shadow did not move like a stage hazard... Seriously, have you seen the boss and stage hazard animations in Brawl? They move so fluidly...
This one moved like it was being controlled by a player. And this is coming from someone who's neutral on Ridley's inclusion.
Super Smash Bros. for Wii U/Nintendo 3DS is the official title, but I'm just going to call it Smash 4.For online, all I want is leaderboards. Rankings would be cool. It gives the game more replay value. And for crying out loud, AMAZING NET CODE. Lag breaks any online game, especially fighters (injustice smh). So please make the online as fluid as possible.
The game looks more combo oriented than before. I like it, but I hate when combos are too long.
One thing I really want to know is what are we gonna call this game? Super Smash Bros Wii U? Think we need an official title
