Reviewing it again, the last hit on his jab is different, and the speeds on some of his moves are different, though still the same move.
Point is, Jab combo, Fair, Dtilt, Utilt, Fsmash, Dair, Dash, Side special, down special, and his final smash are different. Thats 10 different moves. You also stated Falco had "entirely different" standard attacks, which is odd considering Falco only has 6 different moves in his entire moveset. (counting Down B)

So tell me, how is Luigi a clone yet Falco isn't?

Wooh! More arguing!

I love Weegee, but out of his entire moveset, his dash is different, his Fsmash is different and his specials are different. That leaves roughly 21 moves that are exactly the same as Mario's

Falco and wolf have specials that are similar to Fox (though Wolf's have very different properties), but their entire standard movesets are different.

Lucas is exactly like Wolf, in that regard.
Luigi's neutral air, forward air, downward air, dash attack, B, Side B, Up B, Down B, up tilt, forward smash, and down smash are all different moves or have considerably different properties from Mario's moves.

Yeah... I goofed on Falco. I'll say semi-clone for him.

The only character that I consider a complete clone is Toon Link, and even then his different size, speed, and properties make him different enough that it barely matters. Falco is a semi-clone for the most part, while Wolf, Lucas, and Luigi can barely even be called clones, but they still could have been better.

This is straying off topic though, so hopefully we'll get some veterans with more changes for the direct eh? *cough*Ganondorf*cough*

I've been reading a few peculiar comments and would like to take the time to say this:
DON'T SKIP SCHOOL SO YOU CAN WATCH THIS LIVE.
IT'S JUST ONE DAY, GET OFF MY BACK MOM.

Oh nice. Not sure if it's required or not, but accounting is always good to have especially if you want to own your own business.

I have a bachelors in accounting and I'm working on my CPA. Let me know if you ever need any help.

Just realized something...

Tuesday, when I'm in class rather than watching the Nintendo Direct (:urg:), I'm in front of a computer that has internet (but no sound) the whole time in class. During that time, I pretty much just surf the web pretty much the whole time looking up stuff like The Legend of Zelda, Pokémon, & Super Smash Bros. rather than following along with the teacher (this class is way too easy).

But since the Direct will be going on when I'm class, I'm in MAJOR danger of spoiling myself before I watch the Direct (I want to watch the Direct right when I get home spoiler-free).

Guess I'll just stay offline and actually listen to the teacher this time around...

DAMN YOU, SAKURAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIII!!!!

Oh and here's the old Developer direct so we can get an idea of what to see.


One minor thing I noticed, when Mario adjusts his hat as part of his idle pose it moves a lot more.

Thank the lord it's at 6 for me.

Honestly, there's only so much I can speculate now. I already have my guesses, I'm pretty much done until Tuesday.

The smash 2048 is super addicting, but I'm mostly playing to see which character boxes come next... is that bad?

What a wasted weekend this has been. Did I seriously just sit at home and eat/do chores so I can refresh this forum over and over again? I still have some Sunday left, maybe I'll go on a hike.

*looks outside to see it's raining*

Well I wonder what's going on in the rumors thread...


I expect one newcomer, and just an indepth breakdown via video. I don't really expect much else we haven't seen, but rather everything we've seen in our 200 pics of the day in gameplay video.
Now that I read this... this has literally been my weekend too. Holy ****....

I predict there will be rage, tears and dissapointment in this thread after the direct, due to everyone unrealistic expactations.
That's like saying "I predict the sun won't explode in the next 5 seconds". It's true but unimpressive.
