He did. They could've been completely cut out since then.
Again, not looking very likely for what he said, but it doesn't outright disconfirm it.

Is this Spainkiller we're talking about? I thought all he said was his source saw those characters 'moving around' in the game (I don't even remember them saying which version or when) and they were pretty sure they were being held off for some connectivity thing. Where did they say they're still on the cartridge or anymore specifics?

lol

"Junior, what did I tell you about your bedtime? And no going out and joining fighting games? Look at you now!"

 

[gngf123]

If I'm understanding this right, surely the optimal survival strategy is to hold an angle 45 degrees from back, not entirely backwards like people have been saying.

If the game reads the inputs as a square and not a circle, pressing down right will give you the down vector and will also give you the movement to the side.

Similarly, if you get knocked off the side, holding up back surely would be best, no?

 

[ffdgh]

Not even any DLC related things? :/

Well....there's this.

Hey has this been pointed out? Potentially interesting, so heres texture rips. https://mega.co.nz/#!I8tAQTxA!nPwyw_7tWJi96dzzCeOlsK_fTYdTLgXzPLRe4tqWsf0

Extract and search for chr_10_page you'll find these.

Their file names are "chr_10_page_1.tex (AFE29875-55.bin)_0" and "chr_10_page_2.tex (AFE29875-56.bin)_0" They are grouped and the same size as character select icons.

Checked out stages and the same thing exists too.

stage_10_page_1.tex (0DFEFCCA-39.bin)_0 & stage_10_page_2.tex (0DFEFCCA-40.bin)_0


Looks like something that could be used for DLC, doesn't confirm anything for sure as they could be left overs from when the CSS or such was bigger but yeah think this would fit so well with that current gap in the stage select screen.

 

[Timeaisis]

For the record, I love you all. Sorry I may have come off as argumentative. Just trying to provide a foil to the the negative criticism. Not saying the game is perfect. I'm hopeful for the competitive prospects of Smash 4 as much as you guys. I'm just trying to withhold judgment until I get more time with the game, and I guess I lean more toward pro vector than anti.

We shall see. Until then, let's keep doing what we do, SmashGAF. I love our passion. Sometimes I get a little riled up.

if you get knocked straight up, it makes little difference whether you hold left or right actually (unless you're already near one side of the stage....but this should be obvious)

 

[Hatchtag]

Everything has been found lol. No secrets left in the game.

Got some cool renders and other pics from the zip file tho.

No it hasn't. These are just menu level art assets. There's a hell of a lot more to go through.

 

[IntelliHeath]

You're doing it again. SHUT UP!

[IntelliHeath]

Edited: Sorry about double post >.<

well..you didn't believe duck hunt was in the game the first few weeks of the leak.

It was me being in denial because it's too good to be true. I believe everyone got in but not duck hunt, I meant HOLY SMOKES SAKURAI ACTUALLY MAKE DUCK HUNT PLAYABLE CHARACTER! ITS LIKE DREAM IS COMING REALITY FOR ME!

 

[Kyzon]

Sassy as fuck!

 

[ffdgh]

Well in that case, a quick edit is needed. Apologies lol.

 

[-Horizon-]

I saw it as:

"Come on in you heroic motherfucker!"

Oh god I miss this show

 

[Benzychenz]

TP Ganon looks so ugly to me after seeing his hair in Hyrule Warriors.

 

[El Pescado]

while we're on the subject of amazing pics

This picture makes me feel insecure about all the pictures I've taken and not shared here yet. Ha ha ha.

 

[Neiteio]

Vaanrose posted his work on character.

I want to click that arrow tab and be taken to a page that says:

(Mind you, that's a rough visual made in Word, lol)

 

[ffdgh]

Sassy as fuck!

That chest wound is such an eyesore.

 

[BY2K]

Where is that arrow from?

 

[theprodigy]

16 days to the western release now!

 

[Kangi]

 

[random25]

lol

Bowser Jr is such a spoiled brat

 

[Kyzon]

That chest wound is such an eyesore.

As I say whenever someone mentions that thing.

"It explains his run"

 

[BY2K]

WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU ATE ALL THE CHEETOS?!?

 

[Neiteio]

Sassy as fuck!

"Mmm-hmm, y'all tell Shaniqua she don't need no other man, he can get himself a REAL job 'cuz she a REAL woman, y'all hear what I'm saying, lawd have mercy"

 

[The12thGripper]

Does anyone know if the crowd chants have been ripped? I wanna see if there actually is one for Ice Climbers in the game.

 

[Cody_D165]

Kyzon pls

Spoiler

*kills the vibe*

 

[IntelliHeath]

Where is that arrow from?

Apparently someone found it by data mining.

 

[Neiteio]

Where is that arrow from?

The arrow was data-mined. It's the same size as the stage and character icons, and there's one grouped with the character screen data and one grouped with the stage screen data.

Seems to be a tab you'd click to go to a separate page for DLC characters/stages. Which probably also explains why something like 900+ MB is reserved.

 

[Ryce]

Which probably also explains why something like 900+ MB is reserved.

Is that actually true?

 

[PreyingShark]

Why on Earth is Rosalina the fourth lightest character when she's so big and a heavyweight in Mario Kart? Makes no sense.

Because here she's doing mad anti-gravity shit when she disables that shit while kart racing.

 

[J-Tier]

Someone should check the Kirby transformation files. That could possibly yield some secrets too.

Or maybe not.

[astrogamer]

WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU ATE ALL THE CHOCOLATE BARS?!?

Fixed

 

[Neiteio]

Is that actually true?

I'm going off memory, but I remember people here talking about how the game is something like 2GB but the file size is only like 1.1 GB or something. There were even pie charts posted here, lol.

 

[IntelliHeath]

Is that actually true?

The Download Manual said 2.1GB, but the game itself only used 1.1GB. We don't know why but some people speculated that it might be for DLC.

 

[Kangi]

Time for spoilers. Part one of the custom moves images is up: http://imgur.com/a/52bcM

 

[Neoxon]

TP Ganon looks so ugly to me after seeing his hair in Hyrule Warriors.

I don't see anything wrong with TP Ganondorf. Honestly, it's my favorite design for him. Same for Link, Zelda, & what would have been Sheik.

 

[theprodigy]

Because here she's doing mad anti-gravity shit when she disables that shit while kart racing.

aka "yeah this is probably better for balance"

 

[Speedwagon]

I love Pac-Man's expressions in this game. Sakurai did him justice.

Reminds me of my niece's Corgi when he stares at me and it looks like he's smiling.

 

[ffdgh]

Why on Earth is Rosalina the fourth lightest character when she's so big and a heavyweight in Mario Kart? Makes no sense.

She's heavy because she's tall in mario kart plus her luma gimmick can be overpowered....wait the weights are known now? Link?

 

[Unicorn]

Have we cycled through every single Villager costume yet? I think they're all great!

But noone has shown off stripe girl yet or light green dead eyes. Anyone care to show those off as their favorites so we've got all 8 in one thread!? Lol

But seriously I like dead eye light green girl.

I JUST now realized Daisy shirt is the only one with colored hair. Dafuq? She has to win by default for diversity.

 

[gngf123]

if you get knocked straight up, it makes little difference whether you hold left or right actually (unless you're already near one side of the stage....but this should be obvious)

Thinking about it, yeah.

Not very often I find myself thinking about vectors at 4:45am without sleep.

 

[GustyGardens]

Eh. So, what's this vectoring that's got people so up in arms now? I saw a video of it, but I don't see how it's terrible. Isn't it the point of the other player to escape combos and not die? The games wouldn't be fun otherwise. Players are intuitive enough to adapt to these kinds of things. I kind of feel that people were becoming too happy with the game, that they just needed a reason to be upset.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Why is SB making a huge fuss about the new physics mechanic? Seems like people are just bitching that "it's not DI!!!!" when apparently you can actually try to get around/learn from "vectoring".

Nah, we're talking about how glad we are Wolf's gone now.

 

[Benzychenz]

Well, Link and Zelda aren't that great either imo

Hated that gritty art style.

 

[KLatin Scelus]

That's huge.

I know you don't believe in DLC right now, but what would you expect that space to be for?
That's like, double the characters and stages.

 

[Cody_D165]

That's huge.

FULL MELEE, BRAWL, AND 64 STAGE PACKS. BELIEVE.

 

[DICKS AHOY]

Is that from Mac's victory screen or is there actually a way to get Doc Louis to show up during a match?

 

[IntelliHeath]

That's huge.

I know you don't believe in DLC right now, but what would you expect that space to be for?

A really really huge Ridley Trophy where we have to scrolling up like 100 times to see Ridley's eye.

Spoiler

serious answer: it might be memories that are used for remembering your last colors (characters), 8 customization/setting per character, etc, etc.

 

[BY2K]

If they handle DLC for Smash the same way they did for Mario Kart 8, the first batch of DLC could be released 6 months after release.
