I do feel like there should be lobbies rather than the strict delineation. I mean, a game like Call of Duty has 10 game modes or something like that.

So if they want to do pre-made lobbies, why not this:

1v1 all items, all stages
1v1 pre-selected "balanced" items, stages with no random or damaging elements
1v1 no items, FD and Battlefield only

2v2 items, all stages
2v2 pre-selected "balanced" items, stages with no random or damaging elements
2v2 no items, FD and Battlefield only

FFA items, all stages
FFA pre-selected "balanced" items, stages with no random or damaging elements
FFA no items, FD and Battlefield only

Friend Battle - Full Customization decided by lobby host

10 choices. Easily divided into four main menu types.

I've been moaning about the same thing. I agree with you guys.

You're rulesets sound like fine additions, though you could probably push for more stages in the last two categories.

Honestly, as a tangent, I was hoping this would be the Smash where you could go into options for each stage and set a bunch of things for them (e.g., hazard control, moving stage controls and stops). I also thought having a player control the stage, including boss-like enemies, with a gamepad was going to be the gimmick there, but I guess not. Another thing they could do is add alternative ways to obtain items, perhaps in less random ways. Maybe in 5-10 years.

Did you just tell people to compare a Nintendo character to a porn star to make an assessment on breast size?

WTF is this topic?

People are already comparing her to porn stars, though.

Meh, the size of the breasts do not annoy me, it's more the fact that they still appear so big even in a suit that is made to be ultra tight. I mean look at Jenna Marbles Sport bra vs Bikini

That's a great point. This means Samus' boobs are even bigger! :O

 

[Femmeworth]

 

[icy_eagle]

Gatdam Sakurai is a handsome fella

Palutena's temple is huge

I know what stage I'm not playing


Oh and what's with the Samus revisionist history? She's always been sexy under the suit from the very first game, heck she used to wear nothing but bikini / underwear beneath.

 

[NTom64]

I wanted Shulk, but instead I got a well paced, exciting Direct with plenty of new info and a pretty hype finish.

I'm honestly satisfied.

Spoiler

Ha ha but no seriously where is Shulk

 

[zhorkat]

Zero Suit Samus's feet look to me like they're just stumps wrapped in a blue material that Sakurai strapped some fancy high heels on.

 

[Hero]

Samus' boobs are fine.

 

[Jezan]

I'm watching the direct now ( FB spoiled me , I know about Greninja , but I've managed to stay in the dark about eveyrthing else.

Way to tease Ridley, Sakurai!!!
I will play For Fun most of the time, but it was pretty genius to add Final Destination mode to all stages!
DAMN IT, Lyn as AT! :'(
FUUUUUUUU, Dark Samus too!

SAKURAI! For a moment I thought ZSS was out!!! Mega troll!

OMG! HYPE x1000000000000000000000

Nintendo's love for charizard continues. I always thought he was the least used/liked aspect of pokemon trainer.

Greninja is ahsum.

My hopes for Mewtwo/Ivysaur returning are dwindling.

Next Pokemon game

Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire: Charizard Returns

 

[Mariolee]

Has this been spotted already? I assume so

Fuck.

 

[IchigoSharingan]

For the love of shit tell me I'm not in a discussion among MEN about women's bewbs being too BIG.

 

[PhilipDoesMatter]

Fuck.

Blue Shell? Rush for the first!?

 

[foxuzamaki]

There's zero reason why I shouldn't be able to add time or stocks to games while not playing with friends. So fucking stupid.

I'm pretty sure you will

 

[MagiusNecros]

Has this been spotted already? I assume so

For Glory mode it is.

 

[Mariolee]

Blue Shell? Rush for the first!?

If it does I'm turning it off the second I boot up the game. The millisecond. The MICROsecond.

Screw Blue Shells.

 

[mantidor]

With those heels, I wouldn't be surprised if Bayonetta was just a heavier variant on Zero Suit.

The funniest part is that Bayonetta's breasts are smaller, that's how ridiculous modern Samus is, not that I expect anything different after Other M to be honest.

 

[Tathanen]

Those things are fucking ridiculous, she looks like some anime skank. C'mon Nintendo, Samus deserves better than this

This just in: women with large breasts are skanks.

Large breasted women of the world, get your act together. You are shaming your sex.

 

[playingwithfire]

Dat HD upgrade!

Spoiler

They literally just made him greener

 

[Rubius]

Blue Shell? Rush for the first!?

It's probably like a Homing Koopa shell that goes for the a player that has the lowest % and explode. Might be cool.

 

[TrueBlue]

I didn't even notice until I came into this thread.

That's quite the charge you're leveling. Do you have confirmation via comparison pics? We don't like unsubstantiated comments around these parts.

Yeah, see people like playingwithfire just don't seem to understand that he's attacking a whole subset of women for no reason other than their unfortunate genetics.

GAF is better than that, people.

 

[Neko Godot]

Greninja... hmm I didn't even recognize that Pokemon. I got Chespin and my rival got the fire one so I guess I missed the water evolutions. Neat that they're adding more playable Pokemon.

Uh, Shauna should have had the Greninja line. Hell, she'll even trade you a Froakie after you beat the Champion!

 

[Boss Doggie]

By the way, they added new screenies for Pokeball and Items.

 

[Professor Lich]

By the way, they added new screenies for Pokeball and Items.

Hey now! Can't you see people are busy arguing about breasts?!

 

[MagiusNecros]

In the clip looks like Blue shells can be easily dodged via air dodge.

 

[Solid Samus]

I am really not feeling the ZSS redesign. As if she weren't already sexxed up enough already, god damn. Fusion Suit Samus would have been nice but whatever. I am happy about the power boots and how they could mix up her gameplay but yeah that redesign? nah

 

[Orbis Tabula]

Oops, I forgot about this. Anyone know where I can find a good summary of everything?

 

[PAULINK]

Those things are fucking ridiculous, she looks like some anime skank. C'mon Nintendo, Samus deserves better than this

This is right up my alley though, thanks obama.

 

[Nvzman]

So wait, 3DS isn't going to have online multiplayer?
People are talking about local only matches.

 

[Rubius]

I didn't even notice until I came into this thread.

As a person who is friend with some girls who have really big boobs, larger than samus, I have really no problem with them. Sure for an athletic women who is supposed to be ultra muscular, having big breasts is far than logical but hey vidya games. So I do not really understand all the complaints about it outside of "objectification" claims. Some women have big breasts, this is a fact. And that was always the Samus point. She's a sexy girl who kick ass. Her having a D cup or a A cup do not change the fact that she's a cool chick who kick asses.

 

[playingwithfire]

Yes, that's exactly what I meant. Thank you for clarifying it for me.

 

[injurai]

mmhmm

We judgin' woman by breast sizes now? I for one welcome all shapes and sizes.

 

[KarmaCow]

It's more that she looks like those shitty fanservice anime characters. Skin tight suit except for the boob holders.

At least she isn't doing the ass and tits back breaker turn in the promo art like in Brawl.

 

[Tathanen]

Yes, that's exactly what I meant. Thank you for clarifying it for me.

Glad I could help, sometimes it's difficult to express one's self.

 

[blankempathy]

Yea it will.

 

[Rubius]

You should watch the Direct. Nintendo stream on Youtube, so you have the full thing already uploaded. Sakurai is pretty cool in it.

 

[PhilipDoesMatter]

Imagine a battle with the least personality ever:

Greninja, Sheik, King DeDeDe and Lucario.

Jesus!

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

Leave it to neoGAF to turn a hype topic into complaints about portrayals of women.

 

[PadWarrior]

3DS has online.

 

[Thorakai]

I can't get over how much of a troll Sakurai is, so many times was I faked out in the Direct. At various points I feared online was Wii U only, Zero Suit Samus was being axed, For Glory mode would only feature one stage (though he should get on adding stages with platforms as well), the Palutena tease, and the Mewtwo fakeout. Then there is the Ridley thing that just broke my heart. Teasing his shadow just to keep the most die-hard fans with a glimmer of hope only to dash them mercilessly at a later date. What a cruel man, he should be the newest final boss in this iteration of Smash.

 

[Walter Matthau]

Kremlings

 

[thefro]

Zero Suit Samus is definitely a Bayonetta pallette swap character.

Basically all you have to do is change the outfit/hair and you'd end up with Bayonetta with how she's proportioned now.

Maybe it was HIS hand we were fighting the whole time.

 

[Amazeballs]

Samus is more than her breasts, people.

The funniest part is that Bayonetta's breasts are smaller, that's how ridiculous modern Samus is, not that I expect anything different after Other M to be honest.

Bayonetta's look small because the rest of her body is huge. Dem hips, bro.

 

[MagiusNecros]

Maybe it was HIS hand we were fighting the whole time.

Well at least we know Crazy Hand is the one with Carpal Tunnel.

 

[Javier]

Direct over. Great stuff.

Now comes the best part: Reaction videos on Youtube.

 

[Vermillion]

Those things are fucking ridiculous, she looks like some anime skank. C'mon Nintendo, Samus deserves better than this

Better than Brawl's; don't care.

 

[Pociask]

Samus is more than her breasts, people.
.

Tell that to based Sakurai. It appears in order to boost her breasts, she lost some of her ribs, and most of her internal organs. And geez, the point isn't that Samus has big boobs, it is that she has been reduced to a pair of big boobs (that magically always stay perked out) on heels. The reverse white knighting by coming to the defense of real life large breasted women is ridiculous. Real life large breasted women do not have two perfect half globes glued into their chest that stay at a 90 degree angle all the time (and no, jiggle physics are not the realism you are looking for either). This depiction of Samus is just turning her into a complete sexual fantasy figure, a pin up doll. I would expect better from Nintendo's lead female action hero.

 

[Majestad]

Alternate costumes where basically confirmed in this direct, right?
