Support NeoGAF

[Gamer @ Heart]

Sounds like a good start for the WC24, finally. And a nice template for Spore Wii.

Good catch. The premise is all about visiting other players worlds. With the precedent set, hopefully Nintendo will share some resources and help EA do it.

 

[titiklabingapat]

365 stages per year out of millions of submissions per month?

the odds of your stage getting picked is damn pretty low huh

Like all user created stuff, most will suck and there will always be a small but dedicated group of people who will be the major producers. Odds are, if you're good, you're gonna get "published".

I don't really care for this feature but I like what I'm seeing with Nintendo's approach to online. It has it's glaring flaws but slowly but surely, they're adapting.

 

[DDayton]

First stage I'm making: Breakout Stage

As long as theres breakable bricks in assorted colors I'll be golden.

Visual Aid for the Nintendo dudes lurking this thread:

Ooh... it's Jobs's only real contribution to the gaming/computer industry... and even then he had to scam Wozniak to do most of the work for him!

Then just add them as friends and recieve their stages directly instead, I'm sure there is an option for recieving any stages from friends at any time.

 

[turk128]

Hey don't hate on forge, thread title! YOU CAN'T DROP TANKS ON MARIO, CAN YOU?

Thats what I thought.

One up.

 

[RagnarokX]

probably castle DDD

His boxing ring from KSS would be cool.

Wasn't that possible with the Dewy's adventure level editor? If so, there's a high chance that that will happen, especially with Nintendo's emphasis of online-friends-you-know.

 

[Tieno]

Really?

To my understanding (I don't yet own the game), Forge is a mode/level/something in Halo 3 where you can build upon this sandy area to plunk down objects and create your own levels.

"am ;_; (cry)" should be obvious.

Forge is a map and gametype editor. You create your own gametypes (like Rocket Race for example, or edit a map into a rudimentary platformer like someone has already done or adjust it for varios racing games) and custom edit the existing maps. You can alter them quite a bit from weapon spawns to populating the map with diffent objects.

Yeah, I was too scared to come in here and explain that. :lol So, I just posted it in the Halo thread.

 

[MCD]

So this is like Mega Man Powered Up level editor...cool.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Krystal will probably have her own personal stage already. Doesn't every playable character get one?

Not necessarily.

Characters in Melee that were stageless or did not have individual stages (at least in the retail version of the game):

- Marth
- Roy
- Dr. Mario
- Ganondorf
- Pichu
- Zelda (or Link)
- Mewtwo

There were four Mario stages for five characters, two Zelda stages for four characters, two Pokemon stages for three characters, and no Fire Emblem stages for two characters.

Some characters got more stages than characters. There were three Kirby stages for one character, two Metroid stages for one character, three Donkey Kong stages for one character, three Yoshi stages for one character, and two Earthbound stages for one character.

So, while it's impossible to say which characters get which stages (some might argue that Subcon is undeniably Peach's Stage, while others may say it's the Castle), there are sometimes more characters than stages for the franchise.

yeah so hopefully more than one stage per day would be better odds though. if its only one per day chosen, sheesh

I really doubt being good is going to matter much... I don't think this well be as deep as Little Big Planet... sooner or later all of these stages will start looking similar if I can't upload personalized art assets to be more creative.

 

[Dark Ninja]

His boxing ring from KSS would be cool.

that would be awesome that way u can use the stuff in the level editor and make a punch-out ring

 

[MrCheez]

I wonder if it will be possible to screw up the Pokemon Trainer's AI... make it hard for him to follow his pokemon along in the background :lol

 

[RagnarokX]

I just hope they put in the necessary safeguards. There needs to be something along the lines of "You must place at least 3 FLOOR units!" otherwise people will be making maps consisting of nothing but spiked floors with no place to stand.

And no one will play them...If you want someone to play your map, make a good one. This stuff gets sorted out through community interaction.

 

[HolyCheck]

One up.

WOW. lol you got him good.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

whats up with all this Krystal talk?

God, I hope shes not in... assist trophy get!

 

[Jiggy]

Let's not extrapolate that far just yet. >_> Sakurai's not exactly representative of Nintendo since he's not even with them anymore except for this project.
Of course, Advance Wars: Days of Ruin will also have online map sharing, but it's not like we're seeing other major contenders like Mario Kart with a track editor, or Mario Golf with a course creator, etc.



Anyway, I'm done for this excellent night. To think I was originally contemplating going to sleep just five minutes after the update. And I need it, too, but megatons come first.

 

[WildArms]

OMG SO MUCH FOR DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME I MISSED THE UPDATE BY A FUCKING HOUR!

Wow. Megaton x 1,000. This is an awesome feature.

Spoiler

But Sakurai, no matter what you do, do NOT let us use our own music.

 

[MrNibbles]

I hope Nintendo releases FULL (with scripted events, etc) stages at later dates, that can be loaded to/from SD cards / Wii's flash memory.

Then, I hope the internets compiles all of the full stages delivered this way, and hacks the crap out of them, so that we can hack together our own advanced stages (obviously the editor in the game is for basic stuff only).

 

[civilstrife]

I wonder if it will be possible to screw up the Pokemon Trainer's AI... make it hard for him to follow his pokemon along in the background :lol

Heh, good call. Seriously, how is it even going to work in some of the crazier official stages we've seen like Pictochat and that Donky Kong level?

Something tells me that the trainer only appears in certain stages under certain circumstances.

 

[Scum]

A level editor?!?! Game of the motherfucking Century!!

 

[sevenchaos]

Amazing.

 

[mugwhump]

I am now utterly convinced that everything that can be in this game, will be in it. I'm POSITIVE we can play as miis, and there will be at least a Custom Robo Assist. I'm quite sure Isaac from Golden Sun will be playable too, he's first party you know. And I'm confident that there will be a capcom (megaman or VJ) and Square (crono) character. Yupyupyup.

Seriously, who will still need the little blue light in the Wii? The Brawl disc will glow a magnificent blue with so much awesomeness crammed into one disc.

Game of the forever motherfucking confirmed!!!

Actually awesomeness is purple

 

[Smiles and Cries]

no I think he will just float on a ready-made hover platform in the background regardless of the stage designed without backgrounds. Those that do he will stand normally

I'm sure they had creative meetings about this problem before GAF thought about it

 

[Scum]

....Also stealth... music update..

..the Bramble song from DKC2.

Fuck YEAH!! :O

 

[Chumly]

This game is gonna destroy sales charts next year.

 

[Suburban Cowboy]

anyone else disappointed by lack of custom tracks for this mode? I guess it makes sense for sharing purposes, but would still be cool =(

 

[Comic]

guys, fox and captain falcon made less sense as playable characters in the first game than ridley does now. why is this so unacceptable?

I guess if you don't mind shrinking Ridley to 1/3 of his normal size to be playable...

Also, I wonder if the custom maps will be playable online.

 

[apotema]

OK this game only needs to make us earn money when we play, because we will be lost into oblivion playing the daily level

 

[Android18a]

Which Mother game is that Snowman music from? I doubt I've heard it.

 

[Kevtones]

Ideas = endless.


Holy fuck

 

[Dark Ninja]

Which Mother game is that Snowman music from? I doubt I've heard it.

Ice climbers?

I'm talking more about the online and user created aspect of it all. Mario Strikers had a pretty nifty online scheme, with leaderboards and rankings though it didn't have a level editor.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

Which Mother game is that Snowman music from? I doubt I've heard it.

Mother 3 would be my guess

 

[Lobster]

Wrong. Sakurai will only ever make 3 copies. 1 for every region.

Playing as your mii is a shoe in, imo.

 

[Tieno]

What special abilities would a Mii have? How would he fight? Like a Mii boxer?

 

[Lonewolf_92]

As awesome as this last update is, it's got me thinking. You know they're going to want to end the Dojo updates on a megaton high note. Looking at all the Megaton updates we've gotten so far makes me really wonder what we'll be seeing in that update, what could Sakurai be sitting on that could trump everything we already know the game to have? I mean, we've had several HUGE 1st, 2nd, and 3rd party character additions, a Stage Creator, Movie Recording, On-line functionality, Subspace, Co-Op, etc. what the Hell is it?!?

 

[Rentahamster]

This just keeps getting awesomer and awesomer.

 

[Slavik81]

I said wow.

 

[Costanza]

 

[Rotanibor]

What special abilities would a Mii have? How would he fight? Like a Mii boxer?

Using Wii-mote and Nunchuck as NUNCHUCKS!

 

[sevenchaos]

What special abilities would a Mii have? How would he fight? Like a Mii boxer?

Maybe if you chose to play as your Mii you would pick another character to mirror. And maybe your Mii would wear a cap of sorts like Kirby to let other players know what character you are mimicking.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

What special abilities would a Mii have? How would he fight? Like a Mii boxer?

Boxer, hit you with a golf club, splat you with a tennis racket, own you with a homerun bat.
Send tons of bowling balls raining down at you for a final smash. also can all on mini tanks and cows from Wii Play

 

[Slavik81]

Does this mean we can make our own Break the Targets?

(Oh, and hurrah for Mondaytons! )

 

[Capndrake]

Which Mother game is that Snowman music from? I doubt I've heard it.

Boarding school from Earthbound, also plays in Mother 3's snow area. Not sure if it's in the first.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

I hope not I hated those stages as it is.

 

[RagnarokX]

Ridley changes size all the time, just like Bowser.
