I likes it. Better than Friday's update.

What?

 

[Zeed]

On a different note, it's now been 18 updates since we've had a stage. This saddens me, since stages are only behind music, new characters, and random story mode megatons in terms of my most-loved kinds of updates.

Maybe he's running out of default stages and the unlocked crap comes after release?

Anyway I'm hitting the sack.

I likes it. Better than Friday's update.

 

[Firestorm]

As the whitest white guy you'll ever know, I take offense to that.:lol

And I'm sorry Zeed.

I love it when my friends' faces turn red after they eat something I tell them isn't spicy =D

Wusses.

 

[BorkBork]

Reminds me of the DQ spicy burger commericial:

Haha!

I'm pretty sure I can handle it, and know for certain my white yet indian looking bro could. That freaks got an iron stomach.:lol

Of course not, you're Charmander.

And I'm a genetically altered golden lion tamarin monkey that fires lightning out of his backside.

Gaf brings together all kinds.

You must be...

 

[dfyb]

cool item

 

[AMUSIX]

Hmmm, wonder what awesome stuff you can do when Charizard eats this....also, does the effect transfer between all of the Trainer's pokemon?

 

[superbank]

Pretty cool I guess. So you acquire physical fire attacks as well?

 

[Slavik81]

You people just can't handle the spice!

I can.

 

[Jiggy]

Because it's late and I can't sleep and feel like collecting statistics instead... Here are some stats on Dojo updates.



Mario: 7 updates, most recent 8-24 (boss: Petey Piranha)
Legend of Zelda: 6 updates, most recent 8-20 (moves: Link)
Kid Icarus: 5 updates, most recent 8-9 (final smash: Pit)
Yoshi series: 4 updates, most recent 8-23 (final smash: Yoshi)
Pokemon: 7 updates if counting Pokemon Change, most recent 8-13 (Pokemon Trainer profile and Pokemon Change)
Kirby: 3 updates, most recent 8-27 (item: Superspicy Curry)
Star Fox: 4 updates, most recent 7-16 (music: Space Armada)
Metroid: 4 updates, most recent 7-19 (profile: Zero Suit Samus)
Wario: 2 updates, most recent 6-29 (moves: Wario)
F-Zero: 1 update, most recent 7-2 (assist trophy: Samurai Goroh)
Donkey Kong: 4 updates, most recent 8-22 (profile: Diddy Kong)
Animal Crossing: 3 updates, most recent 8-23 (music: Go K.K. Rider!)
Fire Emblem: 3 updates, most recent 8-7 (moves: Ike)
Mother: 1 update, most recent 8-10 (item: Franklin Badge)


This is why I'll tend to assume Star Fox, Wario, F-Zero, or Mother updates in the future.
Other stats:


Items - 9 updates, most recent 8-27 (Superspicy Curry)
Bosses - 1 update, most recent 8-24 (Petey Piranha)
Final smashes - 7 updates, most recent 8-23 (Yoshi's)
Music - 7 updates, most recent 8-23 (Animal Crossing: Go K.K. Rider!)
Character profiles - 16 updates, most recent 8-22 (Diddy Kong)
Story mode updates (non-bosses) - 3 updates, most recent 8-21 (Subspace Army)
Moves - 4 updates, most recent 8-20 (Link's)
Techniques - 6 updates, most recent 8-16 (Tether Recovery)
Game mode updates (non-story mode) - 3 updates, most recent 8-15 (Stickers)
Assist trophies - 5 updates, most recent 8-14 (Devil)
Stages - 9 updates, most recent 8-2 (Castle Siege)


This is a more interesting blend, and I'm not sure I should predict anything from it other than a stage, because it's been a really stupidly long time. If anything, it might be that the types of updates Sakurai's put up most often should be expected most... More items, final smashes, music, character profiles, and stages in the future seem like safer bets to me than the other types.
Also, out of the four series I listed above that I think are most likely, Star Fox already has music, a character profile, and a stage. So I'll be sticking with predictions of Wario, F-Zero, and Mother stuff for now. >_>

 

[Teasel]

curry was a power-up from the original kirby dreamland
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dvP5AcuyvI4
you can see it in action on 03:32

 

[Ashodin]

Anyone else think the curry looks like a photoshopped item? :lol

Almost looks like an update from Smash Bros Mojo :lol

 

[USD]

I can't figure out why this item has the Kirby logo. I've owned Super Star, Dreamland 2, Dreamland 3, and Kirby 64 and there's no curry.

It was in the first Dreamland, according to Google =X

lol, so that's what that powerup was.

 

[NeonZ]

Not only does Ike represent that arc, but Micaiah is NOT a Lord.

This again?

Spoiler

Micaiah is the only character in FE10 who has an entire section of the game focused on her as a leader, and still comes back as leading character again in stages of other sections.

Ike doesn't even get an entire section for himself and his class is NOT Lord either in FE10. There's no character with a class called 'lord' in that game.

Mario: 7 updates, most recent 8-24 (boss: Petey Piranha)

For some unknown reason, the boss battle update was not a Mario update. Look at the symbol... It's a Smash one, not a Mushroom.

 

[BGBW]

Well I love curry, so I love this update!

 

[WildArms]

Wow, it looks like this was the least discussed update on GAF. Which is surprising, as the pulling off combos thing sounds a little interesting.

 

[flipping_heck]

Well.. at least Fire Flower is confirmed.. yeah... not much to say this update

 

[Ashodin]

People were just looking for something megatonnish to start the week. Megatons usually just happen in the middle of the week.

 

[flipping_heck]

At the very least, im expecting a Metroid stage this week or something.

 

[psycho_snake]

You must be...

:lol nicely done

I think that when they do itenm updates, they should show it with another update like a stage, music or a character. Having an item update on its own is pretty boring.

 

[Haunted]

meh. I hope we don't get an update for every food item in the game.

Well I love curry, so I love this update!

:lol

The fire/particle effects in the screens (especially the third one) are really nice, though.

...

You know it's a bad update when I have nothing else to say and just wait for tomorrow's predictions.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

wait did they really update with a freaken plate of curry?!

:/

goes to check the first page

 

[SuperAngelo64]

The fire/particle effects in the screens (especially the third one) are really nice, though.

You know know I really like the ethereal look of the fire in this game, I first noticed it with the Bowser update. It actually looks cooler than real fire :lol

Also, the reason most of us don't recognize Spicy Curry as a Kirby item is because in almost ALL Kirby games the food is replaced with more 'Americanized' food when released in the west. (Save for important items like Maxim Tomatoes and Super Lollipops).

 

[Filter]

tough crowd

 

[Scribble]

We probably won't get an update for every food item. The Spicy Curry is completely separate from the generic healing "Food" item from previous games, so it's all good =X

I have to say, even though the items aren't as "megaton" as character updates, it looks like they're being MORE creative with items this time round. The Gooey Bomb, Pitfall, Smoke Ball, Curry are unique and will be very fun to use.

I wonder if they will only be showing the *new* items.

 

[TheKingsCrown]

What does he mean by being able to do combos that one would never think of? Is Diddy Kong excreting fire on Yoshi?

 

[Grecco]

Spicy Curry is awesome...

though the "you can even do this pic" looks like Diddy flinging fiery poo..

 

[psycho_snake]

:lol It looks like diddy's farting out fire.

 

[Zerodoppler]

Mmmm, delicious curry in the morning.

 

[psycho_snake]

I wonder if they will only be showing the *new* items.

So far thats been the case, with the exception of crates and barrels.

 

[SuperAngelo64]

I wonder if they will only be showing the *new* items.

Let's hope so, any old item updates wouldn't be all that exciting. Though I'm crossing my fingers that this time they'll use the Mario World "Tulip" Fire Flower design.

The Melee Fire Flower wasn't even in any previous Mario games.

 

[Haunted]

Diddy is obviously doing a somersault kick in that screen, you dolts. :lol

Well, either he spit fire on Yoshi shortly before connecting the kick, or Sakurai is saying that all attacks from a character are fire-imbued when you pick up the curry.

 

[Shig]

I like this update, and I'll tell ya why: Diddy's reaction shot. The mere fact that he has a specialized animation after this item means that other characters will have the same.

Cartoony characters like Diddy will react pretty predictably (albeit hilariously), but it'll be very interesting to see the more stoic, serious ones' reactions. Like when, say, ZS Samus or Ike get it.

Yeah, when I saw Diddy I immediately began imagining what Zelda's would look like... :lol

 

[SuperAngelo64]

The funniest part for me isn't Diddy's facial expression, it's his hands in the "OH GOD IT BURNS" strained-pose.

 

[Koomaster]

Hmm, wonder if the character takes fire damage from that as well. You appear to be engulfed in flames. It'd be a trade off of not having to activate the flames yourself.

 

[NotWii]

Whoa, this item sucks.

 

[CreatureX3]

Food items giving power ups now? I love it! I hope this whole week we get one new food item each update just to piss off all the whiners! :lol

 

[A Link to the Past]

I think funnier than Zelda would be Zero Suit Samus, Pikachu, Solid Snake, and Meta Knight.

 

[Linkhero1]

Not a bad update. I expect something huge this week though.

 

[Zeed]

Ike doesn't even get an entire section for himself and his class is NOT Lord either in FE10. There's no character with a class called 'lord' in that game.

I am aware of this - you might have noticed that they're using FE9 Ike. FE10 has no Lords.

 

[Haunted]

Not a bad update. I expect something huge this week though.

why? Just a hunch?

 

[Linkhero1]

why? Just a hunch?

Because Metroid Prime 3 is releasing this week. Isn't Mother2/Earthbound's "Birthday" this week? Well those are two reasons I think they're will be one huge update.

 

[Haunted]

hm... possible. I don't think they'll do a cross-promotion or something with Metroid Prime, but I can certainly see something from the Mother/Earthbound side, yes. Maybe Ami can finally stop checking this thread when Ness is revealed this week.

 

[Insaniac]

flaming monkeys!

 

[worldrunover]

Not a bad update. I think this could be an especially effective item to pull off cool combos.

 

[jamesinclair]

Almost looks like an update from Smash Bros Mojo :lol

After laughing, my next reaction was to check the URL

 

[NeonZ]

I am aware of this - you might have noticed that they're using FE9 Ike. FE10 has no Lords.

Huh... If you want to be so technical... the Ike in Smash bros isn't a Lord either, he's based on Ike's 'Ranger' design, not his 'Lord' design.

It doesn't matter what the character's class is called, what matters is how important the character is to the original game.
