"People in the games industry are heading off one by one to E3. I depart today, too. I am waiting for the Narita Express (train) now."

Correct translation from StreetsAhead.

How disappointing.

Yeah, for those that don't know Narita International Airport is the biggest (?) airport in Japan, just outside of Tokyo. He's waiting for his train to go there, so most likely departing 7-8pm is tonight JST.

There has to be something better than Pac-Man from Bamco's stable. Uuuuuuhgh

Dig Dug!

Here's to hoping, anyway.

It seems like if a thread about a Nintendo game (or Sonic) is more than 20 pages, invariably it's the "discussion" has turned to creepy fan art. Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with some of you?

The internets lol.

[Great Puma]

I'll cast a vote for Pac-Man. He doesn't come with a ready-made move set, but neither did several other characters in Smash. And when it comes to third-party characters, I think Sakurai should only consider icons with a deep history. Nothing against any of Namco's other games, but I'll be really disappointed if Tekken or Soul Calibur characters make it in. Ryu and Ken I could see, simply from a historical standpoint. But to each his own.

 

[qq more]

My third party choices:

Konami: Snake (followed by Django... followed by Dracula)
Ubisoft: Rayman
Square: Crono (followed by Lightning > )
Capcom: MegaMan (followed by Viewtiful Joe and Ameratsu)
Sega: Sonic
Namco: Pacman is obligatory, but I'd prefer Lloyd

I bet Sonic is the only one of those that gets in.

I'll flip thousands of tables if that ever to happen

meanwhile over at gamefaqs:

How can they make the game more Attractive? lol, I'm dying from all that

 

[Bill Rizer]

Would you like better a CG intro movie or a realtime presentation? The former can be more spectacular and over the top, the latter would have a more arcade feel to me. I'm fine with either, until it's not again the cheap mix of the two we got with Melee and Brawl. It's the one thing in my opinion that degrades a bit the perfectly sleek presentation of the game.
Also, title screen was a bit underwhelming in Brawl, needs definitely more vibrancy and epic music (I'm strictly speaking of title, not menus, btw Brawl's theme that plays there is godly).

 

[SuperAngelo64]

Is the hoping for Chrono thing like just fun wishful thinking or do petiole think its realistic?

I hate being a bummer but that character isn't just irrelevant to nintendo, its irrelevant to this decade and square.

Well they're normally a mix of both. The only thing I don't want is when Brawl just reused CGI from SSE and didn't have anything original to the intro like Melee's did.

Anything that is specifically made, not just slapping a bunch of cutscenes in a goddamn Windows Movie Maker.

 

[Jintor]

Man, this is probably selfish because I only just played 3 metal gear games more or less in a row, but I really hope Snake returns.

 

[Hours Left]

Having zero guest characters would make me extremely happy.

Let's repost Melee's opening so that people remember how good it is and how Smash 4's needs to be on the same wavelength.

(And in the form of the reveal, no less!)

Unless Smash is somehow coming out this year there's no way in hell the announcement trailer is going to be the final game's intro with the entire starting roster.

Slowly milking the anticipation behind each newcomer and veteran over two years for Brawl worked great for that games marketing; why would Nintendo reveal so much so quickly so soon?

Nintendo Power comics are the best fanfics

BanchoLeomon's head should never be a hand.

Or anything else, for that matter.

Spoiler

Darkdramon pulls off the look pretty well though

Yeah, flesh characters don't make good "hands". Even WarGreymon is iffy.

But wasn't that the first trailer of Melee?

I've watched this three times over the last two days... four sounds good too.

I can't believe their stage looked so crap back in the day though, haha.

 

[Hours Left]

We're an elite group.

 

[Evilisk]

Melee had a very very short development time especially compared to Brawl.

 

[Jintor]

I feel it! HYPE! Coursing... through my VEINS!

 

[ArchedThunder]

What if the Smash 4 trailer reveals Mike Tyson as a playable character?

 

[Box of Bunnies]

What if the Smash 4 trailer reveals Mike Tyson as a playable character?

As long as we get the Fresh Prince as a rival for him.

 

[Hot Coldman]

Gets it.

 

[Why would you do that?]

Do you guys think it will have a full single player campaign like Brawl did? I really enjoyed Subspace Emissary I like how it was like a platforming game by itself.

I enjoyed it in theory... It felt like a dull, brown, bad Kirby game for some reason, without the variety and bright, happy colors of the Melee adventure mode.

The bosses were really awesome, though. I would love to see another Emissary just for the bosses and the inevitable boss rush.

god melee gameplay is so much better than brawl. just watching this you can see how tight the speed and control is.

 

[ArchedThunder]

Nah, I'm serious brah. Tons of people want Little Mac, what if they went crazy and put in Mike Tyson instead?

It won't happen, but imagine if it did.

 

[Hot Coldman]

yes, let's put a lunatic with a rape conviction in Smash Bros.

 

[sorijealut]

Proceed to feast on ear of Luigi.

 

[ArchedThunder]

yes, let's put a lunatic with a rape conviction in Smash Bros.

Hey, I said it would be crazy and that it won't happen.

 

[fuzzy.dunlop]

If he is going to E3, that means Smash will be playable for E3 attendees, right?

[Hot Coldman]

Hey, I said it would be crazy and that it won't happen.

I thought it was more of a "this would be nuts!" crazy than the "this is an objectively terrible decision" crazy it would actually be.

 

[?oe?oe]

Mario won't appear in the trailer.

#YearofLuigi

 

[ArchedThunder]

I thought it was more of a "this would be nuts!" crazy than the "this is an objectively terrible decision" crazy it would actually be.

You're right, he'd be better as a boss for story mode.
lol.

 

[fuzzy.dunlop]

Will Smash be playable at E3 for attendees? Why else would he be flying there?

 

[NeonZ]

Let's repost Melee's opening so that people remember how good it is and how Smash 4's needs to be on the same wavelength.

(And in the form of the reveal, no less!)

They'd need to reveal almost the entire starting line up at once to reveal the game's opening alongside the initial trailer again. I don't think they'll do that.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Will Smash be playable at E3 for attendees? Why else would he be flying there?

To talk about the progress of the game???

 

[IntelliHeath]

To talk about the progress of the game???

He's right.

 

[fuzzy.dunlop]

To talk about the progress of the game???

With who? The media? They will show the trailer at the ND. Why does he have to fly to LA to talk to the media about smash when all they have to show is a trailer?

 

[one_kill]

Because he wants to attend E3?

 

[BGBW]

Well Brawl's attract mode was pretty crap.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

With demonstration???

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Sakurai: ~laughs~

 

[fuzzy.dunlop]

Because he wants to attend E3?

Then why is he tweeting so often about it? "Hey, I'll be at E3..." "I'm at the train waiting to go to the airport" "Here is a pic of the airport"

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

His game will be shown for the first time.

He's there to represent it.

It'd be more peculiar if he wasn't.

Hope he doesn't sign too many autographs...

Because that's what people on Twitter do?
