huh? mm9 and 10 were pretty awesome.
So true. I think that's because Sakurai and Co. are fans of Mega Man just like us and once they got green light to have it on Smash they are treating him with the respect this franchise desserves. That Mega Man final Smash is just incredible and nostalgic :')
Considering the entire match making and ranking system is based on your performance in the single player modes, I really doubt they got removed.
He already said that it wont have a SSE style single player but there is no way he's going to axe the staples like Classic and the Target challenges.
And MM10 came out in 2010.
Therefore, years.

I dunno, some people actually move onto other games when they get bored. But yeah I guess for people who only owns a wii u only or prefers Nintendo games will continue playing it.

Or people that like topnotch infinitely replayable games such as racers.
Damn, that substitute doll looks really good. It almost looks real.
Nintendo's devs are wizards when it comes to their own hardware.

Just in case it slips to 2015 they can still say it came out in "The winter that started in 2014"
I'm curious if Smash 4 3DS is going to be rock-solid 60fps with 3d on. That seems hard to believe, but I'd love to see it happen!
"In Super Smash Brothers Brawl, when you played online anonymously, players could freely choose stages and we tried to make it so they could customize their matches however they wanted."
"For our upcoming game, we're giving the player even more choices"
*Shows two restricted game modes that you seemingly can't customize*

Well, he could have just said December instead of Winter. Again, not the biggest deal, just really strange.
Just like forcing Final destination as the ONLY option in that one new mode.

60fps with 3D off rock solid, they are aiming for 60fps with 3D on. Certain animations (those that come from pokemon and assist trophies) will "be 30fps"... but they weren't clear on what they meant by that. Not sure how you can display characters and other models on the same screen at the same time at different frame rates on a moving background, etc.
Thanks!

Definitely doesn't make things up as he goes along.
Talk about over-delivering. That was one hell of an info-packed stream.
I think they just raised the bar on how to do one of these for other pubs.
Poeople take note! (I have.)
Wii U was even trending worldwide briefly there...
I bet that's the first time that's happen. Go Nintendo haha.

He doesn't want to give them the same name because then people would think there's only one game.
Yes. They are now big enough to support me AND Loco4Coco.

I agree.
It was one of the best, if not THE BEST, Nintendo Direct ever.

Guess so. For me that's Dota 2.
But I'm just voicing how I feel as a launch wii u owner. I'm just pissed that I have to wait.

That was one of the most amazing things about video games ive ever seen
Sakurai actually knows how to hype his games. I suspect this is more his own initiative and not a breakthrough from Nintendo.
Sheik looks pissed after those Brawl nerfs.
I looked at her brawl dojo page and there doesn't seem to be that much of a difference.
The lines on the new ZSS's suit just makes them stand out more.
I think in the Direct they said that it would be "mostly" 60fps with 3D on. So maybe 4-player battles on boss stages in 3D will have a slightly lower framerate.
So taking into account the words of the Gematsu prophet, and what we learned in the Direct, the newcomers will include:
- Villager (Animal Crossing)
- Wii Fit Trainer (Wii Fit)
- Mega Man (Mega Man)
- Rosalina & Luma (Super Mario)
- Little Mac (Punch-Out!!)
- Greninja (Pokémon XY)
- Palutena (Kid Icarus)
- Chrom (Fire Emblem)
- Pac-Man (Pac-Man)
- Shulk (Xenoblade)
- Chorus Men (Rhythm Heaven)
- Mii (Wii)
Now let's say for a moment the above is true, and let's also say for a moment that the above is the full lineup of newcomers in SSB4. With the 3DS version out this summer, and the full roster known then, and with E3 right at the start of summer, maybe we'll see three newcomers announced at E3 (mirroring last E3), and then the last three will remain hidden until around launch.
So maybe:
- Palutena, Chrom and Pac-Man at E3 2014
- Shulk, Chorus Men and Mii at launch/post-launch
- Villager (Animal Crossing)
- Wii Fit Trainer (Wii Fit)
- Mega Man (Mega Man)
- Rosalina & Luma (Super Mario)
- Little Mac (Punch-Out!!)
- Greninja (Pokémon XY)
- Palutena (Kid Icarus)
- Chrom (Fire Emblem)
- Pac-Man (Pac-Man)
- Shulk (Xenoblade)
- Chorus Men (Rhythm Heaven)
- Mii (Wii)

I'm always cautiously optimistic on ANY Nintendo Direct. But this one...oh man...seriously...Damn...So much hype in my blood stream right now.
Game looks phenomenal, and there is still more content to be revealed before launch.
Cannot wait.
Nintendo Delivered this time!
Hope they announce Captain Falcon and Snake next. (Don't care, what you lot say, Snake was great in Brawl)

I love fast characters, but I don't know who to use: Zero Suit Samus, Fox, Greninja, Little Mac? There are too many to choose from!
He should have did that a long time ago. The game can be a good competitive AND casual game. I was 8 or 9 when I played melee and I wasn't complaining about it being "hard" when I played it with my cousin every weekend.
Also, I remember reading an article on SSB Brawl (which I can't find right now) and Sakurai said something similar to Brawl selling more because it was an easier game to play. Does he not realize the Gamecube sold 1/5 of what the Wii sold?....

Yoshi looks playable now
I'm happy for that, Yoshi was a beast but the past game he took a huge L
I want different colors this time though
black Yoshi with white shoes B^)
The 3DS version will be awesome (I'm getting it for sure), but let's not kid ourselves: The Wii U Version is gonna be where it's at. Wii U Pro Controller support + couple of friends in the living room in front of a huge HD screen = better experience than the 3DS version.
I'm with u on this, Nintendo is gonna force me to by a 2DS lol, at least I can get Zelda ABW and Kid Icurus since I will have one for Smash Bros

I'm going through the direct for the third time in a row and that little jingle before Villager's final smash house explodes is killing me.
THIS! Can't wait for both versions though.
If the netcode is playable on either, it will be the Wii U version. I expect exclusive features and maybe even a sneaky exclusive character or two with the release gap.
All in all, not a horrible move to stagger the two if you can find a way to prevent making the Wii U version feel like old news. Different stages and game modes might be enough.
On the Direct: I thought it was one of the best paced and most consistently interesting. Not sad they revealed a couple Pokemon character and a couple returners - lots of time between now and the release, including E3, so plenty of time for other characters.
The trailer was excellent and IDGAF what any of you say: Charizard is mah main.

Sakurai specifically said that both versions have the exact same roster.
