Another early update. Not as early as before though. I think it just has to do with timing on Sakurai's schedule, or he just felt like getting it up earlier.

Either way, it probably doesn't mean anything.

Finally some Pit and Samus, as well as it being a 3ds pic, and we get to cut missiles up? Back then, doing that just blows the missile up, but this is a nice new feature.

It's neat that you can cut the missiles now, instead of just hitting it and making it blow up in your face.


Now if only we could do that to Snake's grenades...

It would be cool if the missile pieces sizzle for a second and then blow up still and do a little damage and stun (Think Falco's lasers). It would give Samus a unique and solid projectile that could set up for frame traps and force the opponent to block missiles if Samus approaches with them.

Edit: Snake's a boss, AP **** you for liking that post

So this will be a game that will change Pikachu. Many think that it will be the reveal of Mega Pikachu.

The following info comes from a feature focusing on Tsunekazu Ishihara, the president of the Pokemon Company.
- he will appear on Japanese TV on October 28th
- mentions an unprecedented game whose development started this Summer
- the game is said to change Pikachu
- Ishihara is worried about how the change will affect Pikachu's popularity

Thoughts?
This, "new game" may be the Pokken Tournament title leaked to be copyrighted by Pokemon- a possible fighting game (the one shown in the special video showing all of the Pokemon games. If it is, Pikachu might be a Playable character that has some sort of difference from the regular games, like speech, mega evolution, or in my opinion, a new design. Whatever occurs, I'm sure it has to do with that fighting title.

So now you can break missiles with a sword or one's bare hands before it comes in contact with you... Not sure how to feel about that yet. Hope maybe what Eternal said above ends up being the case.

These early updates are slightly convenient I guess. With how marginal it is though I don't think it means anything either. Suppose even Sakurai can't always be that consistent with his timing.

... And if you could do the same against Snake's grenades they would be kinda useless considering the time it sorta takes for them to detonate in the first place.

Sorry, but Pit's more of a boss. You get to fight his body as a "boss" at one point somewhere. :troll:

EDIT: And I feel your pain bout basic brawl Snakes, KoP. It's bad enough that he's a high/top tier with broken OP'd hitboxes (Need I remind them of F-tilt and U-tilt?).

How Snake was in Brawl is hardly an excuse to take low blows against him when talking about updates like these though.

Well I ain't letting that down unless either Snake is not in this Smash, or if I see some true balancing for him if he makes it in, and my mind for that shall not change. And I didn't even bring him up first.
And before this topic gets outta hand, going back to cutting missiles in half, good replacement for stress balls.

I wish big/heavy characters got something more going for them aside from their weight.
Some kind of attribute, maybe.

One of Snakes clones is named Big Boss, so he is the bossiest of the bosses, bro. Pit is an anime character with no facial hair with which you vehemently defend your fixation with.

Snake is an amazing unique character and is one of the hardest characters to use in Brawl strong tilts or not. And like Ridley said it is a low blow; Snake's disjointed hitboxes were a mistake, it happens in smash all the time and it's not like Brawl was the first to see them. Correct if i'm wrong, isn't Pit a character who primarily uses disjointed hitboxes? Yeah...

For some reason, the site hasn't been updated yet... Does anyone still see yesterday's picture? I have refreshed the site several times and it still keeps showing yesterday's picture.

Same issue for me. I like seeing a boot to the head as much as the next guy, but...

"If it's just a missile, a sword can slice it right up. Of course, you could just use your bare hands."
Am I the only one that noticed that Samus' usual green lights on her armor are BLUE? Has she gained the ability to change beams?

The "Challenger Approaching" banner is now gone. You guys think we'll get something tomorrow or Friday?

I dont follow Metal Gear stuff, so I have no interest in that. "Manly" attributes are overrated anyways, belittling the young-looking cool characters.

You take Pit for granted too. I could say he's unique too, and difficult to use as well beyond the generic elitist's or average player's wording of "Just spam arrows, camp, and smashes", but do they really know how to get Pit going and truly get him to his potential, knowing he has many disadvantages? At least Snake has few difficult matchups compared to Pit (I'm certain he has Olimar, D3, Wario, and questionably Marth and Pika problems along with the typical MK), and I really have to remind you the fact that at least Pit's disjointed hitboxes are not OP'd compared to Snake's, which are highly spammable with great damage and killing power anyways. Why is this argument existing again?

Speaking of Pokemon, notice that many Pokemon are either Ghost or Dragon types, with the exception of the new Fairy type up and about?

I aim to please. :awesome:



Fairy tale-style settings. It makes sense.

Oh, you silly! D:
I wanna see some cool bugs though. There's always at least 1 bug that I like from each Gen, from Scyther to Yanma to Dustox to Yanmega to Volcarona. What's next?

Well, Vivillon is apparently number 666. Which makes sense, since Beelzebub is yet another name sometimes associated with the devil. There's a lot of related names. Satan, Belial, Mammon, Lilith, Devil(obviously), Lucifer, Leviathan. I think that there might've been one more? I possibly missed some. Notably, Digimon runs with them all, having the Seven Great Lords. I think I missed Belphemon, but I can't remember his actual regular name. That's be there instead of Devil. Possibly more.
