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

[Smooth Criminal]

No, but you're trying to stop a supposedly "pointless loop," and that nugget of lofty wisdom is wasted by virtue of this medium. That is the angle I'm addressing. It's the same crap Admiral Pit pulled when Ridley discussion emerged. UGH THIS TOPIC HAS BEEN BEATEN TO DEATH I HATE IT LET'S TALK ABOUT SOMETHING ELSE LIKE MAH WAIFU PALUTENA OR MAH BOI PIT KID ICARUS YEY.

That, and the fact that you assumed that I didn't want him to say anything at all, which is complete and utter bull****.

P.S. Even with your not-so innocuous edit of your quoting me, I'm not going back and inserting your proper username into my post, Sausage-kun. You're never going to live it down. So long as people click the wee little arrow that hyperlinks them to my original post, it'll be there. Forever. And ever. And ever.

Are you implying that you want to rub him the right way? O_o'

Yes. I'm totally hitting on Smooth.

Time to make him smoother.

 

[Kaye Cruiser]

Sounds more like you wanna make him a Hardened Criminal instead. ¦D;

At first, but in the end, it'll always be smooth.

Okay, enough. I'm being a jackass. I'm sorry, Smooth, I'm just trolling.

 

[Smooth Criminal]

You're not a prick, AuraSage.

You're a dumb-dumb. Now go back to roleplaying your Aura-wielding Gary Stu.

And it's fine.

Yeah, huh. Sure you were.

 

[Starphoenix]

So, 21st falls on a Thursday, the day before ALBW in the US.

Food for thought.

If Sakurai's going to show off Zelda it won't be then, it will be closer to the Japanese release date which is in December. We'll probably have a month span like past character reveals before we see the next veteran.

 

[Croph]

OMFG

HE'S BEAUTIFUL!! like always

I... I... ****... I wanna hug him.

Anyway, I like how Marth's English page advertises FE Awakening yet his JP page links to the FE12 site. Guess the Japanese doesn't want to advertise Awakening?

Ain't nothing like a good old D joke to quell a forum fight. Yay~ =D

On another random note...I really wish Smashboards acted like a normal forum in the sense that you could change your username anytime via nickname. Why the hell should I have o pay money just to be able to ask to have my name changed? That's so stupid! XD;

http://www.gonintendo.com/?mode=viewstory&id=216488 Good ol' Sakurai!

"My office hours are up to me. So long as I complete the new Smash Bros., I could show up only once a week, or only at night, or even telecommute if I wanted to."

- Sakurai still shows up for work at 10AM every day
- nothing goes into Smash Bros. without his approval

"It's just as important to check the specifications behind the development of things like graphics, sound, motions, characters, stages, game modes, and UI, not just the products themselves."

Sakurai's business schedule not worth talking aboot?

 

[TheWhiteBowser]

But can you say booPTFFF

Can you say boogSNRK

CAN YOU SAY BOOGHAHAGER WITHOUT LAUGHING.

Try looking at this without laughing...

Might have to rate her with this.

[collapse="Funny story."]While getting that pic, I googled "so lewd," expecting a funny anime caption.

I got porn...

I'm sorry.

If that's a problem then I'll quietly take my leave... and I'll go in this corner over here... and like sob for a bit...

Nope. **** Sakurai and his schedule. ¦D

 

[Starphoenix]

Sakurai's business schedule not worth talking aboot?

Surrounds himself with competent developers to take the pressure off of making not one, but two Super Smash Bros titles; yet he continues to micromanage these games to an unhealthy degree. This man's going to wind up having an emotional breakdown and snorting leftover crack from the Yakuza on the streets of Tokyo.

 

[FlareHabanero]

I'm sorry.

Never intended for any tears to happen, it's just that you have to be careful about NSFW material. Hugging is really nasty, you know?

Is that why you hug me every night, Xenoblaze-sensei? ¦D

 

[Jaedrik]

Explain to me the dynamic of the relationship between Marth and Zelda and what each of them gets from it.

After thinking for a while~
You define a relationship by what a person gets from it? If I understand you correctly. . . I find that disturbing.

I'm sorry.

Croph, I can no longer keep silent of my disapproval of your homosexual shipping. Just wanna put that out there. Please don't hate me, everyone, for being "intolerant" . Regardless, I still <3 you, and hugs are great.

It is vitally important, I agree, but a man so grounded in virtue, demonstrated through this article, is not so weak, I doubt he will break down. Yet there is something to be said about micromanagement. Managerial positions in general are not efficient if there is a large amount of micromanagement. Healthy management is first founded in healthy leadership, about setting for clear guidelines, clear goals developed by the entire team, and creating a relationship between the leader and the employees, without that there is no synergy, without that the game would break down and be of a far lesser quality. If such were the case, I'd say Sakurai would break down, but it's obvious that him and his team collaborate more than they do have conflicts of interest or drama. The man is beloved, I have great hope for the next game.

 

[Kaye Cruiser]

Jumping into Pokemon for a moment, does anyone happen to have a Mewtwonite Y they aren't using? The Mewtwo I've got in X is better for Special Attack than otherwise. D:

It's disturbing how probable this could be.

Didn't he reveal Luigi shortly before NA's release of Dream Team? Yes, it was during a direct, but he still used the page to promote MaL:DT regardless.

Speaking of which, does anyone know if a direct is coming at all this month? I've heard nothing concrete, just rumors.

 

[Croph]

Okay, okay. I understand. But, maybe a virtual hug emoticon won't be so bad? Sending something kinda like this ＼(^o^)／ or this (>^_^)><(^o^<) or... well you get what I'm saying.

Is that why you hug me every night, Xenoblaze-sensei? ¦D

No fair! I wanna hug from Xenoblaze-sensei too! >:[

Anyway, Marth's my secondary, however, I hope to still play him no matter what. I just hope there isn't a drastic change to how he feels and plays (but I kinda doubt it). For me, Bowser would be really interesting to try out, considering the changes to him. Well, I guess I'm kinda eager to try out Bowser -- I play him a lot in Melee, however, I rarely play him in Brawl.

 

[Shroob]

Question.

Who would oppose to Barbara Bat being playable? Nintendo seems to still support the franchise, and it even appears as cameos in other games(New Leaf for example). That, and she was an Assist Trophy in Brawl, much like Little Mac was.

Who needs one this month when one on December would be more amazing? We might be able to get more news on the new Donkey Kong (despite the game being delayed), Kirby, more Smash info and speaking of which... KI anniversary month! You know where I'm going with that one...

Yep, playable Lady Paluetna, please!

I'm just curious where you got "homosexual shipping" in my previous post(s)? Unless if you're talking about something I said far back.

Then yeah, I don't mind if you disapprove -- it's not like I'm asking people for approval or anything. Although, I try to not go overboard and keep things to myself but sometimes I do go overboard. And my gosh, if that happens, slap me with a fish across my face or something. Anything to knock some sense into me! Embarrass

I'd like to know this too. But yeah, I'm hoping we at least get one in December, especially to cover next year's releases!

btw, I love your avatar, Chris. Makes me kinda tempted to change mine to Ez. <-- fave champ. <3

Well, Nintendo has done directs every month this year according to Wikipedia, though not all are general directs, some like, a Pokemon Direct.

You should've been around to protest the day we got shipped together. Your loss. ¦3

To note, every character after the original e3 (save Marth) were all revealed on a Direct or on the release date of a game they happen to be in. Luigi applies for both. He was revealed on the data of a VC Mario game release and during a Direct as well. Marth is the first one to not be revealed in either case.

So what you said is correct, but that's not the only timing on which he was revealed. Which makes him an interesting case, since everybody else was during one of the others(till Marth, that is). What we can tell now is that each character is promoting one specific game, regardless of their release date(sometimes the Direct told us what was being promoted first) so far. The notable thing here is there's no telling who really will get in due to this. Chrom is no longer expected since he might not be the choice to promote Awakening, but it doesn't mean he can't get in either.

Sakurai just showed how ridiculously unpredictable he is now.

Keep in mind Marth is only promoting Awakening in NA and EU. He's promoting Mystery of the Emblem in Japan, a game we never got several years back.

I'm expecting December's to be the big one. While November is starting strong with its interesting Smash pics, I just got larger hopes for the last month of the year. Idk what else to say atm.

I know this may sound absurd, but do you think Dark Pit would be possible. Yes, I am sure he would just be a clone with red eyes, but perhaps he could stand out more as an alt. like Male WFT. Rather than just part of Pit's color palette swap. Just a thought.

 

[Rebellious Treecko]

Doesn't he usually do that?

December? I honestly expect Pokemon. Why? It's the biggest shopping month of the year, and all those kids who don't have it now are going to want it for Christmas. What's the best way to sell your biggest franchise, financially speaking? Christmas.

 

[TheFirstPoppyBro]

I honestly like that Sakurai isn't "bleeding his hand", so to speak. We have no idea what he's gonna do next, and the guy has one hell of a poker face.

Why am I using poker terminology? No clue.

Considering it's the same voice actor, it wouldn't be unheard of. Animations wise, they'd probably just change the taunts and victory poses.

That reminds me. I hope Namco's influence will rub off where we get special team win poses.

 

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

Keep in mind Marth is only promoting Awakening in NA and EU. He's promoting Mystery of the Emblem in Japan, a game we never got several years back.

This is exactly why I think what he's promoting has zero bearing on Chrom's chances. Not that I want him in, but still, people are jumping the Gun.

Doesn't he usually do that?

-----

No. Marth coming back was bloody obvious. Of course the original character was coming back. Not to mention if it weren't for the clones in Melee, he'd be the ONLY FE rep.

The most unpredictable thing he did was show off Male Wii Fit Trainer in some fashion that we don't know "what" it is.(costume, assist trophy?) And if it is a costume, him showing a gender change costume is the first unexpected one overall. The rest are really easy to see if you put some thought into it or read some interviews. Villager was planned for Brawl, but he didn't find him usable as a fighter at that time. That's why we got that stage.
