Zero Suit Samus!

It seemed like an obvious follow-up to Samus' Final Smash, huh? Pretty cool stuff.

Cool whip, not a bad trade off for the loss in power (and weight, I guess)
I wonder if Sakurai will keep up the combo action and give us some of Zero Suit Samus' B moves?

 

[PukeTShirt]

Her whip looks really long, like longer than marth's sword long. I hope shes not broken!

 

[h2ownage]

No need to worry, just can't play as her without items, which ruins the game anyway.

 

[1337marth]

She was todays update.

Way to be on top of the ball dude, I bet you're still driving a Pinto and drinking Surge too, eh?

/sob

WHY? WHY MUST YOU BRING SHIEK BACK? AND WITH LONG RANGE TOO?

*drops to his knees sobbing.*

It's like they're flipping off the causal player by giving the true n00bs a weapon to use against the (good) causual players. (not an oxymoron)

Thats only assuming that you can turn off the smash item, Im kinda personally hoping you CANT turn it off, it would make tournaments MUCH more interesting!

As far as z-suit goes, have you guys thought about what might happen when you die? do you change back to regular samus or finish the game off as Z-suit? and if you have the smash ball but dont use it right away, or even die while you have it, what happens to it? Things you guys should think about

Don't jump the gun yet guys.Sakurai would bother making a new character for nothing.

Trust the team.If anything,I believe that uses the Zero Laser is a possible method of unlocking her.Even though it seems easy,there were alot of characters that were easy to unlock in melee.(Jiggs being the easiest)

 

[TheSavageBlueBoy]

they better power down Jiggs sleep

I agree. I think that the addition of super moves will make competitive smash a lot more interesting. It seems like fans of fighting games these days lose interest unless the game is really flashy like MvC.

I laugh at all the people who think Zamus will be like Sheik.


She looks like a combination of Sheik, Marth, and Falco.

Now THAT'S scary!

O_O Don't even joke about that.

In other news, yeah, I'm in love with her body.

In other other news, inb4lock. This belongs in character specific.

 

[Eaode]

No seriously, take a look.

She has Sheik tilts
She has Marth Range
And she has Falco Laser.


We. Are. Doomed

LOL, for a second i thought you said she had Sheiks's **** and I was about to vehemently disagree.

And yeah... We're boned. >_< Great. Samus herself was already close to broken, giving her a sheik/MArth/Falco mode? DX

 

[Sgt.Frog]

But that would totally go against rest's purpose, it's meant to be haxx and hard to pull off, Jiggs is weak anyway, atleast cut her some slack for that move.
It's pwn.

 

[falco_4_life]

lol never thought of it that way. zamus will bring cheap to a whole new level haha.

Lol me too

Yep, let's hope it's not too intense. She's looking pretty rough with that kind of combination

 

[alpha n00b]

Even with the suit off she still looks like a robot with her eyes >_>

 

[Eaode]

Yay I've been sigged!

 

[alpha n00b]

Congratz Eaode i just could'nt resist

 

[Speedsk8er]

Yeah, Eaode, I'm about to sig you too.

 

[Metroid_01]

You havent even seen how she plays yet. Just because she is depicted in a similar style, doesnt mean she will be the same. There are plenty of ways to have a Shiek type character without it being absolutely broken.

Guys - she is using a whip...not a sword. Its not gonna tipper for the kill at 50%. It is far more likely that it will zap zap zap for the annoy at 50%. No serious knockback, no serious kill potential. Wait until more is shown of her before you decide that smashageddon is upon us.

 

[Eaode]

Yeah, she'll be intended to "not be very powerful" and "to rack up damage"


That's exactly what sheik and all the other fast characters were supposed to be. But they will always end up having one or two moves that are powerful enough (or too powerful)

Examples: Fox's Upsmash, Fox's Shine, Sheik's Fair, Sheik's Dthrow, Marth's Fsmash, Marth's Dair, Falco's Dair.


Fast characters are almost always good, unless they're a blatant joke like Pichu.

 

[Fawriel]

One would think that the team learned from the past... I doubt Zamus will have a "why, nobody will ever manage to hit with this" tipper or "she should have ONE killer... well, two... actually..." fair, or a "it's totally fair?" instant spike or a "wait, this thing has a defensive function too?" down-b...

I'm pretty sure that, with THAT many options ( fast combo tilts, long-ranged whip, gun with several modes? ), Zamus will actually have to DO something for her kills.
