If Smash Bros. for Wii U comes out in 2014 as said in the announcement trailer, do you guys think it will be closer to fall/summer 2014 or Winter?

Winter. Christmas sales and all.

September 23rd.

September 23rd.

Nah, that's when the actually new 3D Mario platformer will come out (unless of course I got it all wrong with Super Mario 3D World).

 

[Ridley_Prime]

I'm not sure, but I hope so.

At this point I'm pretty much convinced it's a Super Mario Galaxy stage, and I want to see a SMG stage so badly...

Yeah, any "galaxy" as a stage from SMG/2 will do.

My hope is that we'll be able to see numerous galaxies in a SMG stage. Good Egg Galaxy needs to be there for one.

Something like the Galaxy Tours in SSF2 is what I'd like, but with more galaxies and a good variety.

Hey, if it was like the Mushroomy Kingdom stage in that, it can change depending on the music, I wouldn't mind that either.

Oh yeah, they could have some few different galaxies in a single stage and rotate between them some. I'm not too good at remembering the galaxies by name off the top of my head, but I'd want one of the ice environment ones of course, the one with the bees and the queen, and the Good Egg galaxy that you mentioned, from what I recall of it.

The ice and fire stage is Freezeflame Galaxy and I think the one with the bees and the queen is Honey Hive Galaxy (probably wrong, but whatever). One idea I had for a stage included Freezeflame Galaxy, though I don't care about Honey Hive Galaxy all that much.

Speaking of SMG stage, I think the stage, should it get multiple galaxies, will start on Rosalina's Comet Observatory.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

Beach Bowl Galaxy would be nice as well.

And for once I'd like a desert themed stage (other than the remake of SMB 1-1 in the Mushroomy Kingdom stage) so Dusty Dune is on my list too.

 

[Oasis_S]

In my head I'm arguing with a Straw(ng?) man competitive player for how great a gravity gimmick would be for a Galaxy stage and I just said good golly gee and I'm winning.

 

[Berserker.]

I would be very sad to see her go.

If Jigglypuff goes, I'm gonna skin Sakurai's cats and blow up Nintendo HQ for being ********.

Yep. Rage.

Gusty Gardens Galaxy/Battlerock Galaxy, Rosalina's ship, or a star tours of Super Mario Galaxy 2 would do.

Made me think of that ride.

 

[IsmaR]

Truth be told I thought either Rosalina's Observatory or Mario's Ship were the only obvious choices.

Then again, I'd rather a space-themed Mario stage be saved for Mario Kart. Rainbow Road up in this ****.

Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 had too many good areas dang it.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 had too many good areas dang it.

Not to mention the soundtrack. Too many good songs...

As long as we get a good amount of SMG/SMG2 content in a stage or two I'll be fine. The game was a huge success, as was it's sequal, it would be a great shame to not include anything from the two games.

 

[N3ON]

I imagine just due to scope of the whole Mario series and the amount of diverse content it has to draw from, we'll only get one Galaxy-related stage, but getting that stage is pretty much inevitable I'd say, as well as a handful of music and other content from the two Galaxy games. And sure, the Galaxy stage could be one that changes locations between galaxies or hub worlds from those games, so the possibility of multiple locales from the Galaxy games is a definitely there.

 

[Oasis_S]

Gateway Galaxy, imo.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

Gateway Galaxy is fine, but I personally wouldn't want the song to be present. It's a great theme, the one that plays when you first arrive there, but just too calm and quiet to me, not fit for this.

Maybe if the Galaxies would go through transitions, and the song play during the Gateway Galaxy part, but I wouldn't want it to play during the entire fight.

 

[Johnknight1]

@ KOP
Yep, I was referring to Star Tours.

What other worth mentioning Mario game on a home console has come out but Galaxy 1/2 and MK Wii=???

New Super Mario Bros Wii was good and before they started to cash in on him too much.

That and Super Paper Mario

 

[KingofPhantoms]

I'd expect a playable Paper Mario and any stages from his franchise to be counted as a separate from the Mario Universe in Smash.

That way maybe we could get a SPM and a SMG stage.

Regardless, I'd still personally prefer Bowser Jr. over Paper Mario. The lack of a playable Paper Mario doesn't necessarily mean there can't be any stages from the Paper Mario franchise though.

Super Paper Mario's boat has sailed IMO. If anything we will sadly get a Sticker Star stage or a stage from the original.

As for New SMB Wii, eh, it was pretty much the same game as the first New SMB game, which is not a great thing.

 

[N3ON]

Considering Sakurai doesn't just draw from the "main" Mario games, anything from Galaxy to NSMB to MK to Mario Party to Paper Mario to even Mario & Sonic stages could be fair game. And those are just Mario games that have been on a home console this last generation, Sakurai could draw from portable games as well (Pilotwings Resort is getting Wii U content) and old Mario games, as he has previously.

 

[bobadz]

So the ability to jump on people is back.

 

[IsmaR]

The first two New Super Mario Bros. were amazing. Haven't played the latest two, but heard fairly good things.

Moving on:

Samus confirmed for bigger than Bowser.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Is the pic really footstool jumping? Lame...

 

[Smashiny]

Pic of the day. Pardon us for a sec! Hop!

 

[Berserker.]

You gotta love Gamespot. They're out of place again with their rating

 

[Johnknight1]

I thought footstool hopping was confirmed already.

Ah well.

Hopefully it actual spikes/meteor spike now, instead of just being another stupid and worthless technique.

Their rating for GTA V was only a 9, lol. I've seen them give a lot worse games way higher than that, lol.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

If we were to get a Paper Mario stage on the Wii U, it would probably be a Super Paper Mario stage, but something from the past PM games isn't unreaonable.

A Sticker Star stage wouldn't surprise me on the 3DS version.

I like that little star effect. Similar to Yoshi Bomb and Super Dedede Jump's effects. (except these PROBABLY won't hurt players)


Now to wait for someone to come up with some good captions for this pic.

There was a petition to get the reviewer fired for that.

Shut your mouth.

That would be awesome, though footstools having spikes/meteor spikes may also make certain characters well.. easy targets. In addition to spikes that can already be done normally with certain moves.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

It's past midnight where I am, but since I already got the points for it, I might as well mention that today is my birthday.

 

[Ridley_Prime]

Nice, happy birthday. Go out there and have a great one!

In b4 someone maybe says something about drinking.

 

[CatRaccoonBL]

Don't care for footstool jumping, but nice pic anyway.

Well happy birthday dude. :D

 

[Banjodorf]

Huh. I expected Zelda or something today, but I guess it is sort of silly to expect two character updates in one month. Seems like a bit of a missed opportunity, but hey, whatever.

And happy birthday!

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Happy b-day!

How old are ya this year?

 

[Johnknight1]

Happy b-day KoP!!!

Well, it could do more knockback and a stronger spike at higher damages.
