5 more hours anyway (other than stores breaking street-date and review copies).

 

[jnWake]

Man the OT really highlights how much content this game has.

So hyped! I added myself to the NNID spreadsheet!

 

[roknin]

Simply beautiful OT.

WHY IS IT STILL THURSDAY DAMMIT T^T

 

[chaosblade]

Waaaait, vectoring was patched out of the 3DS game? And presumably won't be in the Wii U game?

Awesome!

 

[Orbis Tabula]

I don't know how I'm gonna make it through class holding in all this HYPE! Fuck Stochastic Modeling! Fuck Queueing Theory! Gimme Smash!

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

I wonder what the E.T.A. for the extra features are going to be like Sharing (really want that!) and Tourney.

Hope it's not, like, a month off. Maybe up by the JP release? It'd be amazing though if they release a patch at midnight that adds all that.

 

[Dead Prince]

game. looks. gorgeous. and plays so well <3

UI is so basic i don't care.

 

[Chaotic-Strike]

I will be picking this up with my Gamecube adapter tomorrow.

I can't wait to say goodbye to my Up-B being changed into my Side-B.

 

[OricWindstar]

Waaaait, vectoring was patched out of the 3DS game? And presumably won't be in the Wii U game?

Awesome!

I know, right! Super great news.

 

[JC Lately]

Subbed so hard. JC Lately Arrives On Time!

The Smash is almost upon us. Looking forward to GAF kicking my ass this weekend when I foolishly hop online.

Speaking of online, any word on if there will be a room/tournament feature that can be designated for GAF, like was done for Mario Kart 8?

 

[Neiteio]

First thing I'm gonna do is play an eight-player match with Bowser Jr. and rub Koopalings all over my body

 

[DeadlyBunny]

HYESS the time has finally arrived. Bundle shipped out and on its way straight to my veins.

 

[Jobbs]

A few days ago Best Buy showed the SSB+gamecube bundle as in stock, and I pounced.

just shipped. XD


I'm gonna kill all of you this weekend!

(in smash)

 

[Schadenfreude]

Well, allow me to answer these questions for ya ...

Q. 1 - Is the game awesome ?

A - YES !!!

Q. 2 - Seriously ?

A - Heck YES !!!

Spoiler

sorry, wish I had an early copy

But not super awesome? Preorder cancelled.

Spoiler

Heheh, that's okay.

 

[Corgi]

wait, linking 3ds version to wii u won't unlock the characters you already unlocked?


why.

 

[Mauricio_Magus]

It's finally here, I can't wait!

 

[DodgeDusk]

Waaaait, vectoring was patched out of the 3DS game? And presumably won't be in the Wii U game?

Awesome!

From what I was told, you can't vector vertically anymore. Vectoring horizontally is still in the game, however

 

[Keyouta]

The game is very good, I'm liking it a lot.

 

[Nintendoga]

It's finally here. I can't believe it

5 more hours, there's no getting off this train baby.

 

[Berordn]

wait, linking 3ds version to wii u won't unlock the characters you already unlocked?


why.

Because they're separate games or something. They kinda dropped the ball with the two versions thing.

 

[-tetsuo-]

ohgodohgodohgodohgodohgodohgodohgodohgodohgodohgodohgodohgodohgodohgodohgod

 

[Timeaisis]

I know, right! Super great news.

Wait wait wait. What? Is this official? Is there a link for this? What is replacing it?

So many questions.

 

[FleetingFlowAir]

Midnight, please come quick. I need this game in my veins.

 

[Flowmoney]

I'm going to gamestop at midnight to cancel my preorder while my preload is going.

Spoiler

Jk.Though there is no point in going really with no GameCube adapter available.

 

[StriKeVillain]

Holy shit, just read about the Saltybet spectator mode in the OT.

Oooooh myyyyyy goooodddd

 

[Blues1990]

(in smash)

SETTLE IT, IN SMASH!

 

[chaosblade]

I know, right! Super great news.

Hopefully this means we might also see some other improvements in balance patches. Increase the hitstun and shield stun and we might be going places.

Spoiler

They should also give us l canceling back but that's never happening.

From what I was told, you can't vector vertically anymore. Vectoring horizontally is still in the game, however

It sounds like there is just DI now, like in previous games.

 

[Ricky 7]

One more full week left. T_T

 

[Tesseract]

jesus the doc is overflowing with ids, i think i added everyone.

tldr

 

[JC Lately]

Feel the rainbow. Taste the rainbow.

 

[roknin]

Waaaait, vectoring was patched out of the 3DS game? And presumably won't be in the Wii U game?

Awesome!

Last I checked, yes... kinda'

There was still research going on as there's some other knockback oddities but by and large it sounds like its gone.

 

[EloquentM]

Holy shit, just read about the Saltybet spectator mode in the OT.

Oooooh myyyyyy goooodddd

Didn't play the 3ds version?

 

[Hupsel]

Anyone know how much time left till the game is avaiable on the US E-Shop? thanksss

 

[ActStriker]

hype

 

[OricWindstar]

Wait wait wait. What? Is this official? Is there a link for this? What is replacing it?

So many questions.

I don't have the link, but there's a huge Smashboards thread about it. Seems pretty conclusive, though what's replaced it is not 100% yet.

 

[Timeaisis]

It sounds like there is just DI now, like in previous games.

Great now I'm going to have to re-learn DI. Haha.

 

[TWILT]

Very nice OT! So hyped for tomorrow!

It's gonna be Shulk time!

 

[friskykillface]

dat title, the superior king is here B^)

waiting til tomorrow morning though, no digital for me this time


its been a long time coming

 

[StriKeVillain]

Didn't play the 3ds version?

Nope. Don't game on handhelds.

 

[BY2K]

Wait, vectoring is gone!?

That thing where you can influenced in which direction you're knocked back!?

 

[cacildo]

Anyone know how much time left till the game is avaiable on the US E-Shop? thanksss

Less than 5 hours

 

[Toad.T]

Still don't really know what Flat Zone X is. A combination of the two flat zones? Why not make a new one then?

 

[Beats]

I'm excited, but I'm still salty that you can't transfer custom moves from the 3DS. : \

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

People with the game, how deep is the Photo Editor?

I.E., the mode where you can pause the game, and draw on the screenshot. That looks like a blast!

Holy shit, just read about the Saltybet spectator mode in the OT.

Oooooh myyyyyy goooodddd

It was discovered the 3DS Version atleast basically just re-used matches, instead of it being live.

 

[-Deimos]

Perfect OT. Getting the game a week late but still hyped.

 

[EloquentM]

Anyone know how much time left till the game is avaiable on the US E-Shop? thanksss

4.75 hours

Nope. Don't game on handhelds.

It is pretty addicting. Good background noise.
