FUCK. Is...is my Fountain of Dreams, uh, dream dead? That was the one stage I wanted to come back ;_;

i fucking hope not. That's the stage I wanted the most back.

 

[balladofwindfishes]

So wait, Wii-U version is getting Miiverse, Dreamland 64, and Ryu's stage in the update right?

Is the 3DS version only receiving Dreamland? That'd be very disappointing, hopefully there's a SF2 stage coming there too.

3DS is also getting the Street Fighter stage. That leaked a few months ago.

 

[ffdgh]

Did a lot of people just sign up for GAF solely to complain about Ryu being in Smash? On the same day Roy was revealed for Smash?

Something something he took our slots.

Miiverse is Wii U-exclusive, but Dream Land 64 and Ryu's stage are coming to both versions of Smash.

EDIT: Hadouken'd.

 

[Jachaos]

Too bad this leaked but still, awesome news that these have been added!

I guess so, I feel you

If we're getting Ryu's stage, I'd imagine we're getting Ryu and Roy as well. We don't really know what's coming outside of Lucas and Miiverse I believe.

I'd imagine the SF2 stage will be on both platforms.

It's Junior city lately. Lots of whiners, too. I have a friend who is waiting patiently for approval while other new Juniors come in and make fools of themselves.

I'm guessing it has to do with the other big gaming event happening this week.

 

[egruntz]

No idea why people get so butthurt about characters.

 

[Dimmle]

Wait, is Ryu Sunday?

Is Ryu soon time?!

When Ryu?!

brain shutting down

 

[D-Man]

I just woke up and this was the first thing I see on the front page.

Very excited for Ryu!

All I know is that the saltiness is at an all time high, and I love it.

At this point I wish someone more ridiculous from SF got in just for the shitstorm. Let's have some Deejay!

No idea why people get so butthurt about characters.

Because it's not niche character #173738

 

[renegade_dewitt]

GOAT Roy is finally back! Unnecessarily removed from Brawl, but back in action in Smash for Wii U and 3DS! Yeah!

 

[Boss Doggie]

I mean in Smash 4. Your comment made it sound like he doesn't have any dialog. That's what I was asking. For clarification.

No he talks in Smash 4, but the only records people have are English VA, no Japanese VA.

 

[L95]

I'm kinda baffled. I don't love Roy as a FE character, he's a pretty boring lord, but I am happy to see him in smash. I was expecting way more salt over Roy than Ryu...

 

[Kriken]

Something something he took our slots.

THEY TOOK ER SLERTS!

We'll find out soon! Try to contain your hype!

lol Hakan? Rufus? A SFV newcomer?

The new character reveals for SFV?

 

[direct_quote]

Kind of was hoping for Ken or Akuma alts, but that would take a lot of work for a DLC character. Can't wait for the direct for more gameplay, and more possible tournament legal stages too is a great thing!

 

[Kyzer]

Ugh. Ryu? Why? Nobody gives a shit about fighting games and his moves aren't realistic. I just don't understand why Nintendo doesn't spend their time working on real characters, fan favorites, like that one guy from paper mario, or Geno from Mario rpg

 

[Game Guru]

This part especially, it's a game where Mario punches Link while Samus shoot Pikachu, there should not be a "Well character X doesn't fit"

I don't see how anyone can say Ryu doesn't fit in Smash when he's fought against guys like Phoenix Wright, Viewtiful Joe, and Arthur from Ghosts 'N Goblins. And that was the most recent Marvel Vs. Capcom game!

 

[Enter the Dragon Punch]

lol Hakan? Rufus? A SFV newcomer?



The new character reveals for SFV?

Sean and Dan!

 

[Starphoenix]

Thanks for this list - I didn't know there were this many unused songs! I'm definitely getting more hopeful that the Rhythm Heaven songs aren't for Miiverse and may very well be pointing toward upcoming RH content.

Spoiler

Please please please let that be the case.

Part of me still thinks the missing Brawl songs from Pictochat could make a home on Miiverse, but since they're not in the game code I don't see that as likely.

 

[Beelzebufo]

The thing they haven't told us about the SF2 stage is that it automatically changes the game to Stamina mode, and every once in a while exploding cars and barrels rain down from the sky. At least there's Omega mode!

 

[Junahu]

If Roy's Neutral B is just a fiery version of Marth's shield breaker, I'm going to flip a table. That crazy, explosive, overhead slash was just the best.


5 Fire Emblem sword fighters (one having magic specials) feels excessive though. Do they just not know how to implement Axes or Lances on a mechanical level, or do they not think the visual language of these weapons belong with heroic characters?

But it doesn't seem likely, as it's not in the files at all.

Overhead slash is as it was in Melee.

Who wants Ryu? This isn't Klonoa, Goku, Kamina, Luffy, Naruto or Chris Pratt

They just always make the main characters swordies

 

[smurfx]

i want ryu's final smash to be similar to that.

 

[Sillution]

Hoping for a ryu Amiibo!

 

[Team Alucard]

How can anyone hate Ryu? He belongs on the Mt Rushmore of gaming.

 

[Starphoenix]

COW RACES

Still, 8 tracks for the Miiverse stage is pretty good. More than some stages have.

 

[Enter the Dragon Punch]

It was confirmed when Mewtwo was revealed that all DLC characters will get Amiibos

 

[NeonZ]

He has his B attack from Melee, it's in the video.

They use swords on the boxart, plus two of them are quickly made clones, so swapping them to using lances/axes would take significantly more effort than they intend to use on them.

 

[balladofwindfishes]

I like how the tradition of three characters, one of which is third party, at E3 lives on.

 

[illadelph]

I can't wait to not get a Roy amiibo

 

[Revven]

The video shows his neutral B, it's the overhead one from Melee.

I was expecting way more salt over Roy than Ryu...

Probably not as much salt because Roy is a veteran from Melee.

 

[Kevinroc]

Ryu's final smash is the Shin Shoryuken.

 

[Beelzebufo]

How can anyone hate Ryu? He belongs on the Mt Rushmore of gaming.

But SFV is PS4 exclusive! lol

 

[Crayolan]

How can anyone hate Ryu? He belongs on the Mt Rushmore of gaming.

Mt. Rushmore is only 4 heads. And Smash already has them all.

I just believe no none-swordsman fire emblem character is popular enough to be put in.

Also Roy is a veteran from melee so his inclusion makes alot of sense and apart from gaf it seems he is a pretty loved character.

 

[ChrisD]

Or TRUE fan favorite, Mallow. Nintendo doesn't understand their fan base at all. :/

Spoiler

Roy! Yes! Roy amiibo! No!

 

[Beelzebufo]

Mt. Rushmore is only 4 heads. And Smash already has them all.

Man, get Sonic off of there. He can be the incomplete Sitting Bull statue mountain of gaming.

Anyone else think Sonic doesn't look like the rest of those characters? His legs are too long!

 

[Vampirolol]

I thought it was impossible to hate Ryu. Smash fanbase is awlays surprising.

 

[Seik]

Mt. Rushmore is only 4 heads. And Smash already has them all.

True that.

I remember when seeing that pic:

I knew it was going to be the ultimate crossover game from that very point.

I really don't understand this post..........you do realize that you are talking about Smash Bros where realism is moot.

 

[PadWarrior]

Is Ryu coming tomorrow?

 

[spindashing]

I really don't understand this post..........you do realize that you are talking about Smash Bros right where realism is moot.

he is being facetious breh

but we need more real dudes like uncle jesse

 

[Japanmanx3]

Ryu amiibo should be really interesting.

 

[Aaronrules380]

Pretty sure that post was sarcastic
