It's called the Rainbow Road! It's a road that you go!

yup
I must have missed something -- was it announced that both versions wouldn't have the same Mario Kart stages?
Can you think of a good bait title?
And you will know, when you get there~

The 3DS game and Wii U game have had completely different stages so far outside of Battlefield.
The Moon revealed for Super Smash Bros. for 3DS

The stages are different between versions, the 3DS version has stages from portable games. They could just use rainbow road for WiiU too, or some MK8 track.

That looks really pretty! I knew I should've made a bet for tonight...
Good one.
Aside from Battlefield there hasn't been a stage so far that is in both versions. Sakurai said the 3DS version would focus on stages from handheld games, while the Wii U version would focus on ones from console games.
I assume some like Battlefield and Final Destination will be in both.
Thanks, apparently I was just totally not paying attention to this. Makes sense with the handheld versus console games I guess!

oh shitHere is the 3DS pic:
Looks like from Mario Kart 7.
Which means as a holiday...it isn't that big of a deal. I'm an expert you know.

That stage looks awesome. I keep getting thrown off with Sakurai updating the smash bros site first.

What the fuck is going on with my computer, I'm just seeing the Rosalina Wii U image from yesterday.
I want to see Rainbow Road so bad.
My favorite Ridley look is Metroid Prime. The head is the perfect shape, the tail is extra-long, and it isn't too muscled.

Ooh, nice. Didn't know there was already a similar concept in the games (I've never played Pokemon Ranger). The only issue I see with Pichu, Plusle, and Minun is that they're all small electric rodents, and I think the point of Pokemon trainers should be having a variety of aesthetics to go along with the variety of Pokemon.
How does he look like a rooster? If anything, Prime 3 Meta Ridley is a toucan. Other M Ridley is a duck.

You should probably expect the MK7 music.
I think wavebird was a bit before bluetooth. Pretty sure it just used standard radio frequency, as you had to set channels to connect them. I think the wiimote and parts of gamepad are bluetooth though.
I don't actually know much about the Pokemon Ranger games, so I'm not sure whether it would be accurate for them to use various tools and the like, but it seems to me it would fit. Also, I was thinking the electric rodent would appear with them constantly, and be used for a couple of attacks, but the specials / etc could still use a variety of different Pokemon, like you've suggested. As you've said, I think using a variety of Pokemon is key for a character like this.
Wow, new stage looks great - not that that's a surprise. I'm still curious about the last two 3DS stages teased, though...!
As for Pokemon - I have a weird gut feeling that if another "trainer" were to get in, it'd be N. I really don't like him much as a character, but he seems like he'd fit in pretty well, is a clear villain rep, and his "use whatever Pokemon are nearby" would lend itself to an interesting moveset along the lines of the Rocket Grunt. Not to mention an obvious Zekrom/Reshiram final smash.
Might be a bit too outdated/irrelevant at this point though.

Given the amount of music Brawl had, I'm sure we can expect more than one Rainbow Road theme.

Are you looking at Miiverse or the Smash Bros site? The Pic is on the smash Bros site.
