Browsing through the related videos... Holy shit Bulbamike is a god.

World Bowser (8-bit)
Double Cherry Pass (8-bit)

Also, Hisstocrat's Map theme is a good pick.

god damn I can't stop

so good

SO GOOD

Haha, same here man. Was Chao Gardens actually fun or is my childhood memory making it seem better than it is?

Are we expecting something big to finish off the week, or another picture like yesterday?

I'm expecting another picture like yesterday.

Wario tonight because rumors.

Actually, I hope we see Captain Falcon. It's be pretty sad for him to be revealed and then not even get a PotD.

My expectations are low. Please prove me wrong Sakurai.

Anything would be be better than that cat pic last night.

Assist trophy tonight

You need more cats to destress!

On one hand Friday is traditional for new things, but on the other hand we already had new things this week.

You are just challenging Sakurai now....FRIDAY PIC RUINED!!

There's a rumor that it'll be Wario, just like there's been every week since Mario Kart 8 came out.

 

[JStein0222]

Actually, I'm still waiting to hear more of that awesome gigamix version they played a short bit of during Little Mac's spotlight in the Smash Direct. That might be the best rendition of anything Punch Out I've heard in my lifetime.

I almost forgot how amazing that Direct was

 

[Xpike]

I'm expecting nothing, will still be disappointed when nothing happens.

Does this counts?

I enjoyed wasting hours just watching them do junk and getting unique colors. Even managed to make a translucent blue chaos zero chao after a while.

Been a lousy week for me so far so I wouldn't be surprised.

 

[Richie]

F-Zero Uprising, Sakurai. You know you're dying to do it.

 

[JStein0222]

Rewatching the smash direct I forgot about the "elements that will link 3DS and Wii U versions"

Any general consensus on what that may be? All I can really surmise would be unlocking characters on the Wii U version that you already unlocked in the 3DS version and Amiibo stuff

 

[Professor Beef]

It's pure nostalgia.

 

[Azure J]

so good

SO GOOD

I'm convinced that if the original composer of a song is from HAL labs (Hirokazu Ando in particular), the song doubles in amazing-ness when someone runs it through 8-bit samples.

Also HOLY FUCK.

I've heard moveset transferring, can't remember if it was from an official source or where I heard it though.

Personally hoping they do some cool stuff with it though. Not sure what, but Sakurai's creative enough to come up with something.

 

[The Great Gonzales]

Does this counts?

Wow, I totally missed that. I still think it would be cool to get an action shot of him, and maybe a few words about any changes that have been made to him this time around, but at least he hasn't been completely passed over.

That comment though

Probably Mii related.

It's quite enjoyable when abusing the infinite animal glitch. Also they were so darn adorable lol.

 

[Fandangox]

A little late, but if I had to put one song in smash... I was originally going to decide Either Tables Turn, or The Wonderful 101 theme, but ultimately I'd be fine with any version arena from Dynasty Warriors.

 

[Makai]

Way LTTP on this question, but what do you guys think of the main theme? Very bland compared to previous themes, especially the incredible Brawl theme.

I'm guessing if any of the newcomers, or any of the revamped veterans, have a Knee Smash-like aerial, there'll be a double pic of the day showing the knee and the new move.

Sort of what I guessed.

Platinum games to make fighting portion and Sora Ltd. to do racing portion.

The only good chao is a dead one. Or Omochao.

Speaking of Omochao, It never got old throwing him into enemies.

Man the Brawl theme was always weird for me, they overused it so much through the game, that it just became boring to me. I prefer Melee's and Smash 4's theme over that one.

At first I was neutral, but it's really grown on me. It feels like it's moved away from Brawl's pseudo-serious theme and back to a more fun vibe. I feel like it works really well with all the 64 themes they're bringing back.

 

[JStein0222]

Ooh another thing I was wondering about regarding the old smash direct. In reference to assist trophies, Sakurai makes the comment "these figure into all star mode, so I look to put in as many as possible"

Maybe I'm just not remembering what all star mode is and how assist trophies figure into it?

 

[Hatchtag]

I really hope SSB4 doesn't go the whole "include music just because it's good" route. There's a lot of great music in SSBB. But great music =/= good fighting game music. There's too many relaxing themes. I don't want to get relaxed playing a fighting game, I wanna get hyped up and ready to kick some ass.

Nope, it's new information. We have yet to see how Assist Trophies figure in to all star mode, and I'm excited to see how they do.

Overall, I think Melee has the best soundtrack because of its cohesiveness. Brawl has good tracks, but they're all over the place.

I like it. It'll be even better if a unique intro like melee is included too.

All Star Mode is the single player mode where you fight everybody in the game with only 3 health items to use the entire time. Maybe since you can damage assist trophies this time you'll be fighting them along side full characters.

 

[akidnamededdy]

I totally dig the PotD stuff but I'm kinda bummed we aren't getting music samples like we did on the dojo. The soundtrack is a huge deal to me, as well as everyone else obviously.

As for wishlists, I always likes this boss music from Superstar Saga. There are lots of Mario & Luigi songs that would be good though. Based Shimomura.

 

[SmithnCo]

Brawl theme was amazing at the time but it was so overused in the game that I don't really like it. Waiting room version is good though.

 

[Fandangox]

Overall, I think Melee has the best soundtrack because of its cohesiveness. Brawl has good tracks, but they're all over the place.

I agree mostly, but if the remixes we have heard so far (That sparkman remix, the punch-out one, and the music that plays during the items sections in the direct) is any indication seems like the music this time its going to be fantastic as well.

 

[The Great Gonzales]

Way LTTP on this question, but what do you guys think of the main theme? Very bland compared to previous themes, especially the incredible Brawl theme.

I wasn't a fan at first, but it's been steadily growing on me, and now I really like it. After seeing a lot of E3 demo videos, I think it works really well as a menu theme. The only part I'm not crazy about is the electric guitar.

Oh, excellent! Fighting against or alongside assist trophies is an interesting idea - looking forward to seeing what goes on

You get to choose one song to be in the game. Go.

I love how Sakurai isn't afraid to poke fun at Nintendo.
