Super Smash Bros 4 (Wii U/3DS) Topic

[Salty the SLUG]

I'd also really want Project M Ivysaur and Squirtle, as well as Meta Knight balanced like he is in Project M.

But still, Wario's changes in Project M are nothing short of awesome and awe-inspiring. It almost makes me wish those people were making Smash Bros.

What does he do that is particularly "skilled"=???

Idk about you guys but i go to Smash for the characters, but stay for the gameplay.

@Gamplay Discussion: I would really like it if grab breaking was implemented into SSB4's combat.

 

[Pyra]

Oh, and why the hell did you "necro" my post?

You joined on Tuesday... it's hardly a "necro".

Plus I wasn't even talking to you... and I wasn't talking to him when he revived my post, so I have no clue why this is even happening.

If it helps defeat the game breaking problem with chain grabs, then yes this would a very welcome addition.

I have been playing Super Smash Bros. since I was 8 years old. I'm 22 now and still playing. I play Smash Bros. because it's all I know how to do. I didn't choose the Smash life. The Smash life chose me.

...it's just a couple hours. A lot of people read from several pages back.

And... this guys is entirely too serious.

Yeah. I get a "school bully" vibe from him. Sorry I kinda yelled at you, I've been up an hour too long.

Back in the preBrawl days, I supported Tom Nook having a shop in game where he would sell alternative special moves for characters that would allow you to customize them. In a way, I think special moves play a big role in determining how good a character is overall. Honestly, look at all the high tier characters and you'll notice that the foundation for a lot of their gameplay starts at their special moves, especially if they have good projectiles and/or recoveries.

Well, that's a really gross simplification as their entire movesets will tell you about how good they are. It also depends on the character's playstyle and how important their specials are for them in comparison to their normals.

He's just adamant about his viewpoints. It's a good thing.

Okay... Lets leave it at that.

Who the heck is the "School bully"=???

Also, I put "skilled" in quotes because there are many forms, definitions, and ways to explain "skill," and I wanted to hear what yours is.

@Gamplay Discussion: I would really like it if grab breaking was implemented into SSB4's combat.

IMO it should only for chain grabs (which aside from early on in a life for a few select characters and for 3 or less chains should not exist) and for walk off stages.

Also, am I seriously the only person who wants land momentum to transfer over to aerial momentum=??? REALLY!?!?!?

So, my wife likes Melee over Brawl, she said Samus is just too hard for her to control in Brawl, but she LOVED ZSS!

A good time was had!

 

[FlareHabanero]

Samus was always one of those awkward characters to utilize in pretty much every game.

Samus was always one of those awkward characters to utilize in pretty much every game.

True, she was learning her pretty decent in Melee though. She picks her mains out of pure love, I'm sitting her down to play all the Metroid games I can soon since she fell in love with Samus. Makes me so happy

 

[Johnknight1]

So I just watched the Nintendo Direct for the Wonderful 101, and I gotta say...

...If you average Irish pub-goer had a shot every time the release date was said in that Nintendo Direct, they would have died from alcohol poisoning about 5 minutes in.

That's because Samus is stupidly underpowered in Brawl. She was decent in Melee, and very much playable in 64.

They'd be drinking until September 15th.

 

[Fastblade5035]

The Wonderful 101 Direct sucked.

They didn't even say the release date.

UNTIL?!

 

[Johnknight1]

My favorite part of the Wonderful 101 Nintendo Direct:


"Unite Morph is not just for killing enemies. THE WONDERFUL ONE-OH-ONE WILL BE RELEASE SEPTEMBER FIFTEENTH!!!"

 

[LiteralGrill]

You guys realize they probably did that so their release date would become a meme and gets tons of free advertising, right? Nowadays that kind of stuff is an advertising standard.

 

[Johnknight1]

If Platinum Games was that smart Capps, they would have done it a long time when they were Clover Studios and owned by Capcom.

Actually, I take that back. They were smart to get fired by Crapcom.

Still, they would have done it beforehand. Quite honestly, I don't understand why their games don't sell better, considering they've made nothing but great games dating back to the Clover Studios days.

 

[Fastblade5035]

What's even happening on September 15th?

Actually, that's the day after my grandpas birthday and 9 days after mine...

 

[KingofPhantoms]

Quiet thread is quiet.

Back in the Clover days, memes weren't as "memetic" as they are today. Not everybody was using some Internet meme or aware of one at least one at some point. I mean, my parents know about Grumpy Cat, we even got my dad a Grumpy Cat T-Shirt (which was very appropriate).

As for why their games don't sell better, well, when's the last time you've seen a commercial for a Platinum game?

 

[Johnknight1]

I've seen Bayonetta commercials before.

But yeah, they don't have the funds for proper commercialism I think. That or their commercial department or contractor(s) suck. They really were smart to get Nintendo's people to help them on that for Bayonetta 2 and The Wonderful 101.

BTW, if Nintendo ever buys out Platinum Games (if given they opportunity, they should; heck, any self-respecting company that would know how to market them should), Bayonetta would totally be a perfectly unfitting yet fitting character for Smash Bros.

 

[Big-Cat]

Really? I don't think I ever saw one. I also didn't see any commercials on Youtube for US Okami commercials.

I blame Platinum's lack of advertising on Sega since they don't advertise for much of anything beyond Sonic. I mean, where the heck are the Project Diva commercials?

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

I liked Samus in melee. I was almost as good at samus as I was sheik

Yeah, SEGA's advertising is pretty bad, and their Bayonetta advertising wasn't exactly anything memorable.

Meanwhile Nintendo has put out several memorable pitches, ads, and commercials, and they generally have a forward-thinking marketing department, although shutting down the advertising of the Wii U since like January had to be one of the dumbest decisions in video game marketing history. I mean really, what did Nintendo gain from doing that=???

Oh yeah, less than 50,000 people buying said console for 3 straight months!

Hopefully Nintendo markets their big games like Mario 3D World, DKC: Tropical Freeze, Bayonetta 2, Mario Kart 8, and especially Smash Wii U like they did with Mario Kart Wii and Mario Galaxy, because if one thing can make this console a huge hit, it is the games. After all, games sell consoles.

It wouldn't hurt them to update their console either. As I said before, I need WIRED controller support and cross-game voice chat at the very least.
