It was obviously fake there was this odd ghosting effect that was left behind after the disappearance.

I am now going to incorporate Peppy Hare into my epic adventure novel fanfiction.

Any other characters besides the smash veterans you guys think would be good to put in? I know I'm putting in a scene where Yoshimitsu and Samurai Goroh are fighting for no reason besides their banners.

Throw in the Spice Girls.

To hopefully get back on topic...

Some cosmetics from Super Smash Bros. should return in my opinion. In particular, the return of the animations for the characters on the select screen and the illustrations found at the end of classic mode.

You can't have Posh Spice without David Beckham. Well you can but that power couple generates millions of (currency units) so it's best to pair them up as often as possible for that money.

EDIT for current topic:

I don't really care about the little animations.
Didn't Brawl also have a congratulations screen for all characters?

Is it me or does Sakurai have a thing for boring menus/PRESENTATION IN GENERAL nowadays.

He does. They're so generic.

And the congratulations things need to go to the next level - movies.

He just recycles what he thinks looks good and keeps things simple. I actually like the menus for Sakurai's recent games even though they're so similar.

Maybe he's trying to say "I DON'T NEED TO TRY AND BE FLASHY, JUST PLAY THE GAME IT SPEAKS FOR ITSELF."

When it comes to Sakurai's menus, I think Kid Icarus was a step in the right direction.

The same style for the menus have been used since Kirby Air Ride, which is starting to get a tad tedious. Personally the option to choose from a selection of different styles, logically based around the varies franchises and then some, for the next game wouldn't hurt.

Well, I've never heard of anyone playing a game for the menus so...

just bring this back up
so what if characters had a specific trait like in injustice: gau
Can you better explain what you mean by traits for those of us who aren't interested in playing Injustice?

Not much going on here.

My article is coming along well. I'm having to rewrite most of it so I hope it will come together well. Might be what's needed to spruce up discussion.

You could also try going to the SSB4 Roster Discussion thread by Scoliosis Jones since characters seems to be the main thing for you.

Yeah, but presentation can make or break a first impression. To see the same theme for different games, it just comes across as lazy. I'd understand if they were all in the same series, but they're not.

Maybe the menus will just be handled by a random namco guy this time. They could end up being completely different.

Traits in injustice are character specific powers. For, example, nightwing's allow to switch stances, green arrow allows him to shoot different types of arrows, superman powers him up.

Why did Lobo keep getting ignored??

Anyway, Traits sort of struck me as Blazblue's Drives. Anyone here who's played Injustice able to confirm this?

For this to work in Smash, a large portion of the mechanics and inputs would have to be completely redone. It's a great idea and it streamlines characters in a unique way making them easier to learn than say SF for example. I\m glad to see it venture outside of Blazblue.

I think maybe something SIMILAR could be done, but it would mean redoing inputs in Smash, however it could allow for more diversity in the fighters, especially clones. What you got in mind Lobo?

Guys I read here that Sakurai once said that Sm4sh's trailer will be the best one. I need a source, I think it was from his twitter. Any help?

Mega would top the trailer.

But I feel sorta doubtful about Brawl-trailer getting topped, unless we're given the characters we've awaited for so long. (Ridley, Toad, K.Rool and so on.)

I think Ridley would be enough to raise a lot of hype, but they shouldn't reveal all the biggest names in the first trailer.

Ridley, Megaman, and K.Rool would NEVER top Snake.
You have a point.

But I think most of Snake's hype was the fact that he was the first non-Nintendo character to appear in Smash and that would open the door to characters some never thought they would appear in Smash.
