Wavedashing in brawl: confirmed?

[Geoffrey Taucer]

Somebody posted this on the OCR boards, wasn't sure if it had been posted here yet:

From the nintendo world trailer. This looks suspiciously like a wavelanding, doesn't it?

 

[Plomid]

that does indeed look exactly like a waveland.

 

[CBNJ]

Yep. So that is good I guess, wavedashing will most likely be in it. Even if it wasn't in Brawl, I don't think I would be that affected.

 

[Lupo Aro]

I took a closer look on the clearer version trailer in Dojo. I REALLY think he's wavelanding right there.

 

[Eternal phoenix Fire]

Either that,or they fixed the engine in brawl in which if you jump forward and land with momentum you'll continue running with that same momentum.

This is just a theory mind you.

 

[chibifibi]

I watched the HD Trailer frame by frame. It does look like it, but it could very well not be.
Perhaps he just dashed as soon as it was possible, making it look like it.

 

[Master Peach]

that looks like a convincing Wavedash to me. but it seems like Wario slid when he land and dashed. Let's just hope it was a wavedash.

 

[Mr.GAW]

I think he stays stationary on the ground too long before moving.

And what are the odds that the one wavedash in all these trailers would be on a slanted down platform? We all know that's the hardest type of place to waveland on.

I dunno, I'm critical.

 

[Aryman]

Maybe he's like Luigi and he has very little traction, and what we see here is his momentum carrying him down the slope.

 

[TheBuzzSaw]

I was sorta thinkin' the same thing as Aryman. Wario does hit a slope upon landing. While it still could be a wave-landing, it could also just be sliding down a ramp.

 

[kin3tic-c4jun-3]

I think he just landed and moved forward. Wario's movement is spurrratic and it could just be Wario being the ****ed up madman he is.

?

 

[Adi]

Yeah, remember that one of the newest additions to the brawl physics engine is the sliding crates/barrels. They might have added this slope mechanic to other characters as well, combined with his initial momentum it resulted in him moving forward like that.

 

[WhiteZER0]

Yes. That would most likely be the most logical answer. Because of the new Physics engine that Sakurai spoke of, that slide is no doubt a result of that same engine. I'm sorry guys, but I don't think you are going to be able to try out WaveDashing until the game finally comes out =P

 

[WHO?AreYou]

Wow...

normally I try to stay out of the "I NEED WAVEDASH IN BRAWL, ZOMG THERE IT IS, PROOOOOF!!!!" threads, but that is actually really great evidence of a waveland right there. The only other thing that could possibly be causing that smoke would be that Wario is now more slidey than Luigi.
Now most people have surmised that based on the videos, Wario will be a pretty weird character, so it could be possible that he slides that far. But still, that's the probably the best evidence I've seen so far.

EDIT: well apparently everyone else thinks this is a slide as well. It probably makes sense though. Why would Sakurai include a hidden advanced technique in a video designed to show the basics of a new game.

My friend, I am glad you have logic for the subject XD But really, there's no use trying to find proof of your old 'Adv. Techniques' until we get a Demo/Trailer/The Actual Game XD

. . . That is a trailer. And I dunno, but to me it looks like wario's feet are moving, so he could still be dashing. Why there's still all that smoke? Not sure but remember that this is a different game.

 

[Mic_128]

Crates can slide down a ramp, why couldn't wario? Anyway post this in the wavedashing topic that arleady sexists.
