I allready asked and it's because of the different language of each video so it explains why there's 15 videos
Okay... so...

4 English.
4 Japan.
...

What other languages are the trailers in?

Guys...

I think I might have discovered a clue to how many newcomers we will have.

Check this out.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aX2KNyaoNV4&list=PLA1lIms2gwaDnOFGXUXtLj8KW5A4qNiKI

It's Megaman's trailer on youtube. This particular video is on the SmashBrosChannel.

Now we can only see four videos. Being the three character trailers and the Nintendo Direct.

It says that the channel has 15 videos though. Any attempt to investigate the channel further results in a link to Nintendo's main page.

What do you guys think?
If that means 11 new newcomer videos.... I'm all for it :D (but I dunno It might not be that.)

hmm, characters I'd least want to see?

I'm not adverse to any character getting in *cough* besides Daisy *cough*

but I'd prefer it if any character like Zoroark or Chrom didn't get in, just so the whole relevance BS can stop maybe

none of the Mario characters besides Toad and Doc really interest me either

I just checked quickly and I see that the 3 trailer are only in english and japanese but the direct have more language (I got french and german and I think there's other one) so there's more than 8 videos because the direct is on different nintendo channel so it's basicly the same video but in more language than the trailer

I always enjoyed Samus' characterization pre-Other M

left more to the imagination

a lot of people defend her Other M incarnation as giving depth to her character, but I feel like in the case of Samus, less is more
That's the danger of leaving a character to interpretation for so long.

I had no problems with her Other M incarnation and her actions didn't strike me as particularly odd. I don't know. I felt I was able to relate to her or at least understood her.
When you facepalm so much, you make new friends. And the recent discussion gave me two.
That's actually funny. Good job.

The Smash Bros. YouTube channel has the three trailers with 4 regional versions. The Developer Directs are not in this channel but on the official Nintendo channels.

3 English (North America)
3 Japanese
3 Europe (Videos in English with selectable subtitles in German, French, Italian, Spanish, Dutch, Portuguese and Russian)
3 English (Australia)

I checked the playlists via the official website: there are four playlists for each of the four regions.

The Developer Direct videos are not in the Smash Bros. channel but on the several Nintendo channels (Japanese, American, Australian and the European channels).

Actually, I checked the several languages, and observed this:

There's one extra play list for Russia that differs from the European one, which uses a different age rating system from the rest of Europe which uses PEGI. That's why there are different versions of the same videos.

This said, you have 5 regions and three trailers, meaning a total of 15 videos.

Oh yes, this an edit as I forgot add this, but being gay isn't weird. Fantasizing over a fictional character isn't made any more or less weird by what gender they are, unless it's Rule 63 Hulk Hogan.
What do YOU mean, "you people"!? D<

I'm not replying to the other stuff you said because I see nothing to argue against. You definitely have a good point...That and I just erased it to save room on the page. XD

But for that last part, I wasn't saying that it's weird because it's gay.

I'm saying it's weird because you have all of these goddesses of different "types" and yet all the supposedly "straight" guys are going for the androgynous male angel with no genitalia. Not the gay guys, the straight guys. XD

Then again, everyone is gay for Bridget and Hideyoshi is a Hideyoshi, so I guess that's where that mindset comes in. ¦D

less is more
I hate this phrase. I hate it with a passion. Not in relation to Samus, but in general.

I'm sorry, but I prefer actuality and solid facts and knowing things without a doubt than constant ambiguity and "imagining" things are a certain way with constant theories and ideas when in the end it amounts to absolutely nothing cause it's still not the actual truth.

That's probably why I hate a lot of endings to certain anime. I wanna know what happened, not make up my own fan fiction and head-canon about it. XD

Whether it's about story direction or characterization, that's how I feel it should be. Less is NOT more. Less is less. That's why it's called "less".

People die when they are killed, ya know. =D

...And why is my other post in purple? It matches and all, but I didn't do that. O_o

This is why most females play Pikachu or Kirby... can't give Pikachu a thong. If only... If only...

Close enough.

Truth be told I usually go for the most androgynous character, but my sister does exactly what you said.

That picture is more appropriate for Queen's Blade than anything else.
That's like saying R34 is more appropriate for hentai than anything else.

Not only did Other M strip Samus of her independent nature, it did so with a jumbled plot, horrible flashbacks, and a restrictive weapon system that did not make much sense.

If you completely ignore the story and weapon authorization nonsense (in other words, if you only focus on gameplay), you will see that the game isn't all that bad.

Other M's problem was the fact that it prioritized story over game, which usually doesn't work well. If it had a more traditional Metroid story and wasn't so linear, I totally assure you that it would have been much better received than how it was.

The game also isn't that great

That's like listening to a song and ignoring the lyrics because you dislike them. That doesn't work. Well, for me it doesn't, anyways.

Well when Shorts posted that blondie boy I was going to try and turn the topic over to cunnilingus but I thought better of it but then you had to come along.



I approve this topic. IF I HAD TO LEARN IT SO DO YOU.

I agree with Frostwraith, Other M placed a tad too much emphasis on the story instead of core components like exploration. Also it seems as though a lot of players saw Other M as a downgrade from the Prime series as opposed to a throwback to the two dimensional games such as Zero Mission, Super Metroid, etc., so I suppose one's perspective and expectations can also shape how the game is viewed.

I wouldn't think a bounty hunter would be so subservient to the military organization she left. She is a one (wo)man army in that suit, seems like she plays better by herself than with others.

Everytime a man entered a room with Samus in Other M she had to ask him if she could live.

"Why yes Samus, now that your skin is a dripping flesh broth you can activate your anti-heat function."

People say she relies too much on others in the game, like Adam.

----
You mean the authorization stuff? She was part of a military mission, or rather joined in on the mission. She had to follow protocol and orders whether she liked it or not.

And where was the whining when we had similar things in Corruption?

Like not turning on her heat shield because Adam forgot to tell her to do it while she was burning up

"Oh hey, Samus. I forgot about you.

Hmm...you seem to be in a hot area. you might want to turn your heat shielding on"

"Oh thank you Adam. I endure this pain for you!"

"Whatever. Back to looking at monitors"

Paper Mario, Toon Zelda, Bowser Jr. and Waluigi are all tied for Characters I don't want.

And I highly doubt we'll get anything smash related 2morrow. My money is on that "Summer" Update we were suppose to get.

Samus being revealed as a woman in the original is part of Nintendo history. It was a surprise because she displayed culturally-masculine traits (lone wolf behavior, adventurous, religious, brave). Well, and the fact her armor had wide shoulders.

Stripping her of that for bad story-telling is awful.

Yeah. Didn't Rundas save Samus more times than ANYONE in Other M?

Regardless, to me, Other M was a game of too much ambition and not enough focus.

There really are some good ideas in the plot. A deleter subplot could have been amazing. Same with Ridley causing Samus to choke up, Adam's sacrifice, etc. Where they really failed was the execution which ended up as sloppy and unorganized. I feel if they could "redo" Other M, it would be loved.
