"Plus devs are way behind on fixing bugs, don't be surprised if the release build has bugs."

Honestly I wouldn't be too surprised, Smash 4 was kind of a mess at launch as well.

I'm probably omega late to this, but happy 20th anniversary to Young Link's game, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time!
here's my art for it:

Spoiler: Any Young Link mains?

 

[monadoboy]

All leaks are fake because we all know DIO is gonna be a DLC for Smash Brawl.

I wish lol

I hope the leakers are wrong about DLC tbh, I want real surprises at least for DLC. I'm glad no one took the leaks seriously.

Taunts don't count, since Daisy got her own, Dark Pit as well. Aerials are the same, The Marios has differs in downs airs, Chrom's data looks mostly like Roy.

Out of the all the Echoes, he's the one that has the biggest gameplay differences to his original imo. No sourspot means certain set-ups that work for Roy may not work for him, and it also means he has an easier time killing and is better at keeping the opponent away. Most importantly, his recovery prevents Chrom from edgeguarding and recovering the same way as Roy, or even close.

Not exactly

Vergeben is now not completely trusting Hitagi anymore

Wait Verg actually said something?

Yeah, I'm not riding on Steve being anything anymore.

Usually the most vocal leakers tend to be the fakes. Vergeben only speaks when he wants to. Hitagi constantly makes new threads on r/kappa to spice up conversation. I honestly have never seen someone flipflop more

Really? Did he post this somewhere?

 

[Smashoperatingbuddy123]

I don’t remember where but I know he’s now 50/50 on Hitagi but he might go 90/10 after that 5 dlc characters was fake thing

 

[TheCJBrine]

Wait, I can't find the source for Vergeben not trusting Hitagi...

Uh, he'll be one of my "tier 2" mains, so yeah.

But since you also reminded me, happy 28th anniversary to Yoshi, because there's been so many anniversaries today.

Because there isn't one. He trusts Hitagi.

I know; but I'm talking about other moves! I am an huge fan of Chrom so thanks?

I'd like to learn more about this for ideas of possible stages that I could make. Would you like to describe it?

I can only faintly remember it. It had the chamber background, there were a couple platforms (some of them moving), and it also had the glass tunnels from Norfair. The namesake of the stage was "The Pit", which was a narrow pit made up of blocks on the right side of the stage that was almost impossible to escape. You would either need to be playing a character with multiple jumps, or get launched out. In hindsight, we probably could've walljumped out of it, but we were filthy casuals who never used shield, thought Kirby was OP, and didn't know that wall-jumping or teching were things. I tried to recreate it in Wii U, but the stage builder in Wii U is just so bad.

That's cool! I'm pretty excited to use him seeing as how he's got flaming arrows with like no lag which is lit!

And it's Yoshi's anniversary!? I didn't know that lol! XD Maybe I should've made him something too. Oh well.

 

[TheCJBrine]

Because there isn't one. He trusts Hitagi.

Oh okay.

Back to Steve and possible B-K hype.

 

[TyrantLizardKing]

Because there isn't one. He trusts Hitagi.

But didn't Verge also say that he didn't specifically believe what Hitagi was saying was true, just that they have credibility?

 

[Icedragonadam]

I'm really glad Nintendo remembers Castlevania 64.

I don't care what anyone says, I loved the two 64 Castlevania games. I hope to see Spirits of Carrie, Cornell, Henry, Vincent, and Renon.

 

[KarneraMythos]

Because there isn't one. He trusts Hitagi.

I hate it when people spread misinformation. The moment you refuse to cite a source, you just proved you're bull****ting. It's really annoying.

EDIT: I like to see both sides of an argument, but until I see proof, I'm going to assume that Vergeben is siding with Hitagi to some degree.

True, although I do want to see what usefulness double arrows with Link could have in the long run. I'm just gonna use all three, because why not (I stuck with both Link/TL as SSB4 mains), but I'll primarily go Link.

I've made large box stages that sound similar to what you're describing

Ok guys what about another sonic rep like maybe Amy or something I feel like she would be a heavy character with most of her smash attacks being her hammer and such tell me if there could have been a better sonic rep (other than shadow) I want to hear some speculation

 

[Zinith]

Ah yes, it's my boi's 28th birthday today

 

[Smashoperatingbuddy123]

I should absolutely point this out even though it has nothing to do with smash

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Remember how king K. Rool got saved this might be another one of those scenarios if banjo wins

 

[Kuon]

Oh okay.

Back to Steve and possible B-K hype.

Pikachu looks so sad. It makes me want to give him hugs

 

[SuperSceptile15]

Ah yes, it's my boi's 28th birthday today

Happy 28th Birthday! I hope Yoshi's Crafted World is a success. Maybe we could get another Yoshi character for DLC to promote that game? I would be down for that.

I'm gonna make a bold claim and say that earthbound is gonna trample Banjo. An even bigger claim that this means nothing.

If any other character deserves to be the second Sonic representative at this point, it's Tails. He's been Sonic's sidekick since almost the beginning, has plenty to draw from thanks to his own sidegames and Battle, and is very much considered an icon alongside him.

A great scenario would be Tails with a bonus Shadow Echo to fully satisfy demand.

As a huge Earthbound fan, the series should stay dead. It's fine as is.

I will gladly accept a Mother 3 port though, hopefully before I'm 85.

Amy would be a dream come true for me. I can't say much for her chances, but I'd give her about a 1% chance of getting in. Amy or Cream are probably my most wanted at this point, but Tails seems more likely to be the next Sonic rep (if we ever get a second one)

that's a tough poll to vote on. I don't think I'd even be able to choose between f-zero and earthbound.

This is the least okay thing to ever not be okay.

It won't matter reguardless. Even if that bear wins, Microsoft doesn't care.

Which would be a shame because Earthbound isn't "dead", it's concluded.

Yeah, the double arrow system on (standard) Link looks pretty neat. I really wanna see how it could be utilized with competitive play seeing how those players always figure out cool ways to use it to their advantage.
I've actually always been a Toon Link person because he's like small and fast Link, but since Young Link is here and seems similar to that, I'd love to try him out as he looks like a nice inbetween type Link.

The Mother series concluded beautifully. Don't resurrect it only to screw it all up, please.

WHAT?! An award show where nothing happens to the winner and the whole thing is ultimately pointless? Balderdash, I tell you.

Huh, that's a tricky one. It's hard for me to decide between Chrono and Earthbound...

They probably won't be too hot.

They require you to fire an arrow on a piece of land that's at least a 1/4 of fd away, for you to run up, pick it up, and then fire an arrow while still holding the arrow.

Seems like way too many steps for not enough reward.

Did you guys forget about Mother 4? It came out a few years ago, and the creator of that is currently working on Mother 5.

Really, Mother/EarthBound shouldn't be on this list at all.
