Haha. Oh Ridley, you will never be in Smash like you want to.
Playing as Rosalina in Mario Kart 8 has me so excited to do well with her in Smash 4. You guys might find some amusement in some of the replays I have. I know prodigy will.
Oh wow, spot on with that Sandopolis opening. :lol :lol :lol

I was thinking Marble Garden because last one had him launched into the air like the end of Hydrocity, but he does get buried in Sandopolis'. It's like a combo.

Not only on that day do we get to watch the tournament, digital event & roundtable. The next day some of us get to PLAY the wiiU game half a year before it comes out.
All of us will get to analyze and glean juicy details from the tourney & those who do make it to SmashFest.
Too fucking hype for words.

No people's challenger yet, huh? That sucks because they are 2 days late with that shit.

Agreed. I'm lucky enough to have a close Best Buy that has it. In walking distance. Might have to go both days. I really can't wait. It's literally keeping me up at night.
I don't mean the invitational but rather tournaments that will happen when the game comes out

Hi SmashGaf, another newcomer here 
I've been lurking this thread for months, can't wait for E3.

I doubt it's MK8 related, they usually post in-game screenshots for that. It's probably random anyway.

Wow, GAF bringing in all the new comers for the inevitable GAF Crash on E3.
WELCOME!

They're been posting character shots for MK8 for months.
Just take a look at my avatar. Or this.

Weekend SmashGAF the day after the MK8 launch can't be the most exciting time to join :/ Nevertheless, welcome!
It depends on who's unlocked from the get-go. If Villager's unlocked, I'll use him; if not Villager, then Peach; if not Peach, the Mario. I'll do my standard 5-minute match on Battlefield against either Captain Falcon or Link. I probably won't do any solo modes until I've gotten a feel for the game.

Nintendo can be quite terrible with contests... They never revealed the winner of the I Love My Wii U contest that I entered, for example.

Mmh, you're right. But they tweeted about Wario in MK8 before, and the artwork isn't from MK8.

Well I was trying to think of what I traditionally did with the games and that'd be pick my favorite character (thematically) & beat classic mode with them then work my way through with every character in order of who I like the most till all characters are unlocked that can be through that method, then look up how to unlock the rest because I am WEAK
I am super duper curious about the connectivity between the two versions

Not that I don't think Wario will be in the game, but I don't think that tweet means a whole lot.
Just NoA's tweeter people spouting off random Nintendo stuff.

I think and hope that custom movesets will have something to do with it but who knows? I could definitely see an option to unlock all the features and characters you've accessed through the 3ds ver. on the wiiU though.

When the game comes out me and a friend keep to our smash tradition of just spending an ungodly amount of hours in vs mode until we are familiar with all the new content

Anyone think Nintendo will do some kind of crazy offer with smash like they did with mk8 and the free game? It would be rad to get another free game but I doubt they would be that generous
Buy Smash and get half off of Ridley DLC (Ridley not included.)
It's the main reason why I'm not that hyped for the 3DS game. That circle pad is ass.
Sonic
Some of this was mentioned by other people.
Homing Attack
Has been given a buff by increasing the range. I compared it with Brawl's and it just came short of Smash 4's. It seems the initial charge up goes higher as well, but it is hard to compare due to the angle differences.
Lost World Bumper
The charge up animation now has a yellow flash to indicate it is charging. Mindblowing, I know.
That really isn't the focus here. You should look at the part where Sonic touches the bumper.
When Sonic touches the bumper, it sent Sonic upwards which is expected. What's weird is that the damage indicator occurs and smoke trails appear. Seems like the bumper isn't going to act like the springs within the game.
Spike
With a nice little combo, Sonic ends it off with his down air which now has a meteor smash property meaning you can spike opponents with it. This move isn't really meant to be used very far or too low from the stage, otherwise it would be certain doom for Sonic.
It has some nice speed and length compared to other spike moves, but being accurate with it may seem difficult if you use it from a far distance, so it would probably be best used within a close distance like he does here.
This is a change that was implemented after his reveal.
I find it interesting that Sonic has been shown off in Smash 4 as a "combo" (quotation marks because these are set up, so it may not match any real battle scenarios) character. They've shown him to use one move right into another many times since his reveal trailer. The only other character they've done this with is Wii Fit Trainer.
I hope that he becomes a better character.

I seriously hop Sonic gets some decent buffs. I loved playing as him, but he couldn't kill for shit. If we do get real combos in Smash 4, it would be a really good help for him overall.

Part of me feels that it's really appropriate to his legacy that Sonic is terrible
He should dominate in every match at the start, and then slowly get worse until you can't even control him by the end. Make a sonic cycle moveset.

Poor Sonic. Believe it or not I'm a fairly successful Sonic main in Brawl - love the blue blur.
I would main him just to laugh at this mechanic and I hate the everlasting loving shit out of modern Sonic. It seems like his shit priority hasn't changed either. Little Mac punches him out of his homing move like he's batting away a nat.

Man... I really hope Sonic is a lot better in this one. He's a great character. Really hoping someone is nice enough to choose him in the invitationals, somehow.
PS... those GIF's. Damn... looking amazing.

Are there any current Smash Bros tournaments going on or streaming right now? If not were there any recently that I could watch? I'm taking a break from MK8 and have about an hour before I go to the movies with my wife and I am itching to watch some smash!
Money match between two of the best Snakes in project M. Almost over, unfortunately
