Are you kidding me with this? They're similar style can perfectly be explained by Ike being based off of Marth and they're differences can be perfectly explained by the fact that Ike isn't a Marth clone. So no, they're move set isn't totally different, they're different. Ike's Fair, Uair, Forward Smash, Charge B most closely resemble that of Marth. But at the same time he has moves that Marth doesn't have. Come on, not based on Marth? You have to be kidding me.

Yeah, I'm sick of seeing Norfair, every single SSB game has Norfair! (Come on, Brinstar depths is Norfair, you all know it!) I wanna see something from the Prime games!

Ike's charge B hits the opponent with fire created by the sword getting thrust into the ground rather than a direct hit with the sword itself. The animations are completely different, and I'd say it probably doesn't have the guard breaking proprieties of Marth's attack, as that hasn't been mentioned in the updates.
His forward Smash is a two handed vertical slash, basically identical to Link's Smash in the original SSB, and he has a similar attack in the air, which probably is his Foward Air - Marth had one handed attacks in both slots.
Ike also seems to have a small instant rushing slash which might be his Down Smash or forward B, either way, completely different from Marth's. His Down Air actually is almost identical to Link's (only reversed and faster). His Up Air is completely different too, I don't see how you could get any similarity comparing it to Marth's... His Neutral Air is kind of similar to Marth's Down Air.
Considering the Down Air attack and the 2 handed slashes, you might as well say that Ike is based on Link... It's about as true as saying that he's based on Marth.

Mmmm. I love the Super Metroid prologue theme.
Can't wait to hear the other Metroid songs.

I reaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllly hope that Sakurai still allows you to play stock based matches in this game. Time matches are awful, wastes of everyone's time.

Just a passing freak out session of mine, since we haven't seen it. Maybe in all the awesomeness that he decided to put in, he lost a few details?Jirotrom said:

Dude... that Melee video features two players using pro-level tactics five years after the release of the game.
That Brawl video, on the other hand, features some journalist who has never touched a Smash game dicking around in a demo... with a sideways wiimote.
If you think that Melee players started out playing that fast you're nuts.

I've watched so many of these videos by now that i really don't remember what was from where, but one of the interviews clearly stated that stock matches, and various other types of matches would be available come release. I wanna say it was the gamespot interview?

Someone described it in one of their impressions, and its in the second match in the gamepro footage. She puts everyone to sleep (a la jigglypuff's sing), and a bunch of peaches drop on the ground, which she appeared to be eating to regain health, though i wouldn't be surprised if some of them were throwable items.

Well, something that's been standard in the first two games is probably going to be assumed to be in the sequel.
As everybody else said, it's timed because of the fact that it's a demo. On a similar note, I'm guessing that the default spawn rate for smash balls is going to be much lower in the final game (but still adjustable). I get the feeling that they made them appear more often so that the press could get a feel for them.

I don't know how many thousands of points I would spend to download this demo. PLEASE NINTENDO, give us a demo, since you had to delay!

Peach's final smash should not be so underpowered. I guess 1 v 1 it works, but multiplayer it might suxxors. I haven't seen it though, just read about it.Des0lar said:

I agree. The transition looks extremely awkward and out of place. I hope it's not final, cause the rest of the stage is quite stunning visually.

SSBM is about as unbalanced as you can get in a game
