Oh wow, sorry SSBF, I realized I uploaded the wrong roster.



I ultimately ditched Saki Amamiya for Takamaru in the belief that Sakurai would probably choose the latter.
Not bad. I'd axe Waddle Dee, Dixie, and Toad and throw Snake back in there to make it a round 50, though (and maybe throw in a little Layton :(). Regardless, you have K. Rool, Shulk, and most importantly, Starfy. I'd be happy with this.

Also, can I get a link to the updated roster maker?

You guys, I honestly don't even remember how to get to the backroom. It's been 2 years. XP

In regards to Sakurai changing his mind about things: Yeah. There is no canon of decisions by the developers. Iwata basically forced Sakurai into making Smash too, which amuses me. =P

I'm looking forward to what they do with the game. I'm sure I'll be pleased overall. I think Wii Fit Trainer is hilarious. I hope they include as many new franchises as possible, even though there are very few prominent franchises left to pull from.

EDIT: Oh! Thanks for the link. XP
Holy crap it's Hex. Nice to see ya back after two years. :laugh:

It has 2 of my wanted newcomers (Starfy and Bandana Dee). I LOVE THIS.

Because someone was going to bring it up to me eventually, so I wanted to get that detail out of the way.

Granted, I still want Takamaru and will still defend that choice, but desperation is stupid.
Not what I meant. I mean, why did Sakurai bring it up? Why make such a distinction when you could have used any random combination of those shown?

I remember always making a big deal about lighitng. XP

I'll be honest: I'm slightly underwhelmed by the visuals of SSBU after seeing 3D World and Mario Kart 8. The lighting in those game. Oh my the lighting.

The animations in the SSBU build they showed are also lacking a lot of finesse, but I hope they improve over time. Watching Link's knees burst out of the front of his tunic was cringeworthy.... Sakurai and his teams aren't exactly renowned for their visual polish....
Yeah, I agree. Oh well. Maybe it's too much for ask for in a fast paced game with so much going on at once. Too much processing power, who knows.

There's also screens where you can see the 3D models distorted in odd ways. There's one with Wii Fit Trainer with a crazy shoulder.

Yeah, they're not the best models I've ever seen. They're recycling a lot of Brawl stuff, it seems. Link's body distorts in the exact same ways it did in that game. I just really hope they put at least a LITTLE more effort into fixing some of those visual problems. The really silly looking distortions at least. Not like you see it when you play anyways, but it's the little details that impress.

And I most CERTAINLY hope they don't rush things after that really silly fiasco about Iwata announcing the game before development even started.

To be fair, they even stated the visuals are still in development. While I'm not saying there will be a dramatic amount of changes it still is farther out than the other two titles. Plus there is the whole stage factor. I do agree though on Mario Kart 8, those graphics are surprisingly good. I'm still amazed how they possibly managed to make Kirby look better.

Although the Wii Fit Trainer icon I made myself, so here:



Drop it in the icon folder, and under the "file" option on the menu bar of the program there should be an option for "add new character icons" at the bottom. Even the roster maker couldn't predict this one.

I suppose we gotta prove ourselves as productive members of the community again, eh bud :)
It would seem so, I have been working on doing just that. However, only being able to log on certain hours of the day and keeping my girl happy by not being on the computer so much seem to set me back a bit. Oh well no worries though, good things happen to those who wait. It is why I am not worried about waiting on this new smash bros game :)

You don't have to prove anything; just contribute to discussion. That's about it.

Well, I dunno about you guys, but one thing I'm hoping for is that they remove tripping.

Ah, well... sorry to inform you then, but tripping's back...
[collapse=See?]


:troll::troll::troll:[/collapse]
Then it better be optional because random tripping is the worst mechanic to ever hit Smash. If not...

By the way, aren't you guys having a bit too in-depth discussion on the gameplay for this point in time? It's fun and all, but that I would imagine that sort of stuff is very likely to change. How much, and in what ways, is anyone's guess though.

Though I seem to recall people complaining from the beginning, wasn't Brawl supposedly more like Melee in its first trailer?

I don't see what's so great about Metroid.

Donkey Kong Country is where it's at.

It's definitely the most nostalgic series for me
Nothing's wrong with DKC, it'll be a good game, but it wasn't what a lot of people wanted to see. Also with the recency of DKCR and DKCR3D, not the most compelling game for people considering picking up a Wii U or wanting something new.

Then it better be optional because random tripping is the worst mechanic to ever hit Smash. If not...
Was kidding, hence three trolls. It's just Villager's dash attack I think. No sight of tripping yet.

I dunno, you're the one going on about current graphics of an unfinished game. :smirk:

Well, Retro picked the only game that would make ME excited (The only think that would have made me more excited is if THEY were the ones developing a Yoshi's Island game) and that's what really counts

I'd have to agree with you there, I mean, Sm4sh is still just a child...We should probably wait until she's more "grown up" to rate her on her features ;)

Just how much she is grown up is cultural, or just personal preference

How much mature is JUST barely enough grown up

I've just realised that Sakurai is literally the biggest troll in the world.

- In the Melee trailer(/intro), while new characters are being shown he showed Ridley fighting Samus which everyone assumed meant he was a playable character.

- The Samurai Goroh assist trophy reveal on the Brawl DOJO.
It wasn't made clear unless you read all of the text that he was something called an "assist trophy" which we hadn't heard of yet. Everyone went crazy at first thinking Samurai Goroh was confirmed as a playable character.

- Kid Icarus uprising making you think the game is over and rolling the credits before suddenly being pulled back into the game.

- The SSB4 trailer Animal Crossing introduction.
If you watched it live you saw Miyamato introduce one final unnamed trailer. It then cuts to animal crossing making many people think that there was no SSB trailer at all.

- Making us think the SSB4 trailer was over before the Megaman reveal with the fade away and 2014 screen.

Have I missed any of his other greatest trolls?

I've always noticed why I love this redesign so much and honestly, this suits him perfectly. Surprising how much similarities are in here.
The Smash Development team have really done an amazing job, they really know how to capture the "essence" of characters they put into their game. I'm excited to see what else they have in store for us.

That was Iwata, not Miyamoto

From what we know of the game, it also shows that Sakurai is much more enthusiastic about this game than he was about Brawl. If he had upheld a similar attitude as he did in Brawl, I don't think we would have gotten Mega Man or have the game look as awesome as it does.
