Support NeoGAF

[Scooter155]

That word means the opposite of what you think it does.

Huh. I thought "dearth" meant "a lot" too. I guess we'll just have to use "plethora" instead.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Honestly, even if the last leak was the final characters roster I'd be happy with it.

And it even hurts Sakurai to cut a character.

Hurts him so much he keeps doing it.
He'll get no sympathy from me

Hey SmashGAF, new recruit here! I've been lurking NeoGAF for 3 or so years now, but after witnessing the insanity of the Smash faithful, I just had to join!

Also, Dark Pit is my new main, screw the haters!

Pokemon Red/Blue gambling already did it to me.

Also, a new BitF:

Alt:

"And me again, in ninja form!"

I always wondered where you see the alt text as it's not on the comic page.

I'm sure if he was allowed the time, Sakurai would never cut anyone-it's the nature of the industry that really forces his hand.

so this thread went by in a hurry
6-day comparison, since that was almost certainly the last full day:
+45% from thread 10, +134% from thread 12

Welcome aboard. You picked a hell of a time to join. It's gettin' all weird up ins.

Oops.

 

[BeatResetsTheWorld]

And literally 16 specials for every character. Don't forget the dearth of customization options.

I think this is the opposite of the word you meant to use

Just think-this is probably the peak.....the hype is all downhill from here!

 

[SuperSah]

Is anyone here actually going to use custom movesets or Mii?


I'm very partial on the idea.

 

[Jawmuncher]

I wish the idea that the 3DS version coming earlier is why characters got cut and when the WiiU version comes out they will be part of that and DLC for the 3DS version.

I'm very partial on the idea.

Considering they aren't usable online I doubt it.
Plus have Tournaments said what the standard will be on those?

Late.
(Or do I mean early?)

 

[Kouriozan]

Not if there is more leak

Highly unlikely, Nintendo's ninjas are everywhere now.

Now we wait for the next newcomer video/gameplay info/music updates.

 

[balladofwindfishes]

No other series lets us have christmas music, for this reason Ice Climbers are returning

One time when I was a teenager, my mom wanted me to make a Christmas mix CD for the car. I stuck that song on it, titled "Icicle Mountain" and she thought it sounded nice. I never mentioned where it came from.

 

[Red Arremer]

Keep your cursor hovering over the image, the little tooltip window has the alt text in it.

 

[Demon Lizardman]

When's the new thread up?

 

[johnbone]

Welcome aboard. You picked a hell of a time to join. It's gettin' all weird up ins.

Thanks!
Yeah, It's been hard watching these leaks happen and not being able to comment on them!

 

[Gilbals]

Honestly, even if the last leak was the final characters roster I'd be happy with it.

And it even hurts Sakurai to cut a character.

Our tears keep him youthful. Cutting characters is the only way to keep him from regressing to a fetus. It's all about balance.

 

[Kouriozan]

Oh, thank you!
I mostly read those on my iPad x)

 

[sfz]

Hold your mouse over the image and hold it still. The alt text will appear. (It's meant to describe the image for the vision-impaired, but webcomic artists use it to add an extra joke.)

 

[Red Arremer]

Most TOs/people who know TOs I talked to said that there's no way of deciding what's gonna happen with custom moves/Miis in competitive play yet until the game comes out.

 

[Poudini]

I'll be hyped when the trailers/PotD for the newcomers arrive

I wonder how often they'll update the music on the site? Every 3 days sounds good to me!

 

[Neiteio]

I wonder what music they'll play for Bowser Jr.'s reveal

Of course, custom characters are tons of fun when done right.

 

[Kouriozan]

I like them but I'd be okay if SmashGAF matches don't use customization.
Also still hoping for communities, I want to find a GAF Smash Run game easily.

 

[johnbone]

Hopefully...

[BGBW]

Well, the Sound Test screenshot had "Kongo Jungle" as a song on it, and Kongo Jungle was the name given to the DK Rap in Brawl (It played on the Kongo Jungle level in Melee), and I can't seem to think of anything else that'd mean. It's also weird because it was there next to Gear Getaway, which I still don't think fits Jungle Japes at all, and Jungle Japes doesn't have its own music, either.

Well in Brawl the stage had Jungle Japes and Kongo Jungle as its two tracks so they probably just stuck to that.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Most TOs/people who know TOs I talked to said that there's no way of deciding what's gonna happen with custom moves/Miis in competitive play yet until the game comes out.

Man was hoping someone would have had at least a faint idea on the matter.
Guess we'll have to wait and see.

I'll see you all in Gamblers Anonymous.

 

[Weiner Whistle]

Hopefully a remix of the Koopalings' theme song if their alternates are real.

Or this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zvXtZZfK_PM

 

[johnbone]

I sometimes worry that custom moves will cause yet another split in the community...as if it needs another!

 

[PadWarrior]

I don't plan on using miis customization or playing smash run. Just no interest in them.

 

[MNC]

Oh dear GOD I do not remember this at all

 

[Beelzebufo]

So guys have there been any updates on the leaks since the PotD came out last night? Went to bed and just woke up. Tried skimming through the pages but didn't see anything notable.

Looks like they leaked everything in the video, I wouldn't expect any more for a little while.

 

[Spinosaurus]

I wonder what music they'll play for Bowser Jr.'s reveal

I'll laugh so hard if it's this one

Please happen. I love it.

 

[Berordn]

I don't plan on using miis customization or playing smash run. Just no interest in them.

This is a bit silly to me. I'd never dismiss a feature before I even try it out in its final incarnation. I'm not super interested in Miis or Palutena but I'm still planning on trying them out just to see if they stack up to expectations.

 

[GiantBreadbug]

I don't know why I wouldn't use Miis. I'm actually quite fond of my own and my friends' Miis so I'll use them for sure.

I'm thinking:

My Mii = Gunner
Boyfriend's Mii = Brawler
Best Friend's Mii = Swordfighter

 

[Red Arremer]

Man was hoping someone would have had at least a faint idea on the matter.
Guess we'll have to wait and see.

There's no way of knowing before actually seeing it in action.
Again, there's 2 factors to consider before TOs can make a decision:
- How long does it take to customize?
- How good are the custom moves?

We have no way of knowing anything about the second aspect just yet, and the first one is only barely piecing itself together.

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

Bowser Jr.'s Sticker Star theme is pretty nice as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E_u-eh0iMQk

Wouldn't mind them using that either. Seems to have elements of the Jr. Galaxy theme as well.

 

[OricWindstar]

I don't know why I wouldn't use Miis. I'm actually quite fond of my own and my friends' Miis so I'll use them for sure.

I'm thinking:

My Mii = Gunner
Boyfriend's Mii = Brawler
Best Friend's Mii = Swordfighter

I'm most looking forward to making my best friend's dad a Mii and trolling him with it. Haha, so for me, Miis are great!

[georgetheplushie]

Late to the party on this:

As far as customization goes, I will be extremely sad if customized movesets don't end up being the tournament standard. Screw what anonymous online matches has to say about that, customized moves is the thing I'm most looking forward to in this game.

I'm very partial on the idea.

Custom move-sets seem like something I will not use, just personally not interested. Miis, I'm very interested in.
