Smash Wii U & 3DS director Masahiro Sakurai says "Pic of the day. Rosalina's down special move, tentatively called the Gravitational Pull, sucks up items and weapons. Weapons will be disabled when using this move, of course. You have to shake the Wii Remote to perform this move in Super Mario Galaxy, but you won't need to do that in this game."

Nothing new in today's pic... we had seen that move before... the only thing we got was the confirmation that it is her down special.

It'll be interesting to see what kind of projectiles this move can stop. If it can stop solid objects, I wonder if it'll redirect energy-based projectiles, such as Samus's Charge Shot.

I was a little terrified when I saw " You have to shake the Wii Remote" and the rest was cut off.

Such relief.

Almost had a heart attack when the preview stopped at "You have to shake the Wii remote..."

I could just see them making motion controls mandatory.

Remember that "shake smash" thing for Brawl when you were using a Wiimote+Nunchuk?

Blegh.

In my short romp with the 'chuck, it seemed to be more of a flick smash. If it was more accurate to the intention of the user (I got it to work well a few times), it would have been a nice alternative to the C-stick for aerial moves. It was, the few times it worked. I was able to retreat Fair with Marth, too bad it's not consistent, otherwise 'chuck might've been semi-viable. Nothing will replace the GC or classic controller in my heart, though.

This could potentially make the MU for characters, like Link, Toon Link and (maybe) Peach a pain, as it pretty much cripples most of their projectile options.

Mega Man could probably punish Rosalina's Gravitational Pull, seeing as his standard attack has projectile properties; he can move and attack at the same time. But all the other projectile users probably won't be so fortunate.

Best ignore the guy. He's either trolling, or being overzealous in expressing his opinions.

not really. It was. Melee was so good and brawl was so slow and they took all ovf the skill out of the game. People that like brawl are not good at smash.
Keep in mind that you are talking to a mod, so continuing to do what you just did can get you banned.
And I like 64, Melee, AND Brawl.
True Smash fans don't nitpick one game, they appreciate them all.

project m stinks. Not as fast as melee.
Last time I checked, Nintendo characters don't belong to the Sonic franchise. Speed =/= Competitive Balance and Ideal Mechanics

Project M worse than Melee? If you prefer unbalanced, jittery characters over refined gameplay, then be my guest. I think both games are fantastic, and I'm not saying you can't have an opinion, but you are mistaken if you think speed equals competitiveness. Project M isn't perfect either, but it's much more fair than Melee when it comes to competitive play. I also think Smash 4 will be even more balanced than P:M, and the new ledge controls update only further reinforces my point. Perhaps tier lists will be done away with for good.

I didn't mind your comments but i'm gonna say this. If you don't know how to play Brawl then keep your comments to yourself. Melee fans think its just fair to just trash Brawl and for what? Melee fans have no reason or right to do so and neither do brawl fans.

Play your damn game and if you want to be a fan-boy who most likely can't play at a good enough level to beat even the newest of Melee players then shut it man.

Brawlers are smashers too and should be treated as such
