Sakurai's stance on Smash is that it's a party game and that players don't need to know the minutiae. He's a stubborn fella.
We should have a thorough patch list coming from Smash Boards in the next few hours.

Oh I didn't know the Wind Waker Stage was Wii U only. That's too bad. I wanted some wind Waker music in the 3DS version.
This is the first console exclusive DLC isn't it?
I checked the 3DS shop and you can't buy it from there which I guess is nice of them, at least it won't taunt people

Pirate Ship is apparently named the same way cross-platform stages are in the files. Might've been intended for 3DS but unable to run on it.

I'm currently on Smash Boards reading about individual changes and I feel so sorry for these people they don't deserve to be treated like this.
Praying for Zelda buff
I think I see King K. RoolPosted this in the Ballot thread, but thought I'd share here. You guys know how when you use the Metal Box, the reflection shows the actual stage?
That ain't SMB3. An easter egg of some kind...?

Please don't start this shit, lol
Nice stage addition - I was hoping for a new character, but whatever.
It's pretty telling that among the new costumes are Falcon and Fox, two Characters already in the game. I'd figure that they'd add costumes for characters from the series that are not in the game
It's nice to get a new stage once in a while, but they have to add some missing Melee stages next. I figure we'll see something new (including a new fighter) around the time holiday sales usually take off.

not that I'd buy a costume anyway

Huh. I ever noticed that.
Is there some way to see other players pellets, 'cuz I feel like I've played "keep-away" trying to keep people from theirs on For Fun.

Whoa they added some new modes under regular tourney, including "1v1 for glory (Battlefield)". Shane no one is on regular tourney mode right now.

Oh yeah, I just read the whole weather effect issue
I suppose making it available to New 3DS owners, assuming that model can run it, would be out of the question too since there's no way to delineate the different platforms like that?
Can the eshop tell which 3DS you're on? I have no idea if you can see Xenoblade in the store if youre viewing it from a regular model.
Anyway, the Mario Maker stage is awesome.
I tried playing the tourney mode a couple of times, but it was weird, confusing and seemingly unpopulated.

I don't know what's with Nintendo's aversion to patch notes, but it's insane. Even when they do give patch notes for something, they are incredibly incomplete. It's ridiculous that fans constantly have to compile their own.

I think it's a conscious choice to have people simply "play" the game rather than obsess over the math and the meta.

Didn't Splatoon's 2.0 update come with a very long list of patch notes? I don't play the game so I don't know how it's handled by those developers.
Yeah, Splatoon 2.0 patch had a pretty extensive patch note.
At this point it's obvious that it is Sakurai's mandate that there shouldn't be any patch notes. Every other Nintendo game does have patch notes, but since Nintendo rarely adds things to it they normally amount to "Fixed some bugs and glitches". There were few games that had added controller support in a patch, and it was reflected in the patch notes.
The 3DS version of the Super Mario Maker stage doesn't update as frequently in some cases.
The only real differences I noticed with the Duck Hunt stage is that Duck Hunt HUD moves with the camera ... otherwise, you'd never see the whole thing. Camera doesn't tilt at all when the game's paused, so virtually no 3D-ish look from the stage.

I'd rather have Mute City, since it's the only 3DS stage that I feel is worth anything outside of Omega Mode, even Magicant (Fuck the Flying Man).

This is likely the case, but it's not a good one either. People who "obsess" about that information are going obsess regardless of whether or not Nintendo makes it easy for them. Being opaque for the sake of "making people play" is just nonsense. And the thing is, Nintendo has a long history of missing or incomplete patch notes that extends far beyond obscuring high-level meta-game changes. They just have a tendency not to tell people what they've changed about any of their products across any area, which is absolutely not a policy anyone should agree with.
This is actually true, but for the time being that seems to be an anomaly, just like many things pertaining to Splatoon.

there's literally nothing wrong with wanting to know frame data and recovery/speed changes etc.
like? obviously they play the game extensively? this is why they want to know this data right away in the first place? what the fuck
thats the phantom pain
It's hurts, I need this

I just played Mario Maker in Online "For Fun" about a half hour ago.
I wish they'd introduce some sort of stage voting online, though.
I don't like the feeling of paying for stages and then leaving it up to the RNG to see if I ever really get to use them.

Yeah, best part of the update to me. I looooooooooove the Duck Hunt stage.
So if the Wii U should get 3DS stages, what stages should be ported from the Wii U to the 3DS version along with Duck Hunt so not everything unique about that version is taken away from it?
Weird how everyone only considers the one way trip despite there being a sizeable 3DS only audience.

That's because some people still see the 3DS version as a "filler", even though the playerbase is bigger than the Wii U's. Go figure.
Anyways, stages I want on the 3DS from the Wii U are:
Gamer
Kalos Pokémon League
Windy Hill Zone
Smashville
Onett
Kongo Jungle 64
Skyworld
Delfino Plaza (pleaaaaaase?)
That is it.
For 3DS > Wii U, I only really want Magicant and maybe Paper Mario.

Hopefully.
I think we should just take the possibility of "THE BABY" away as soon as possible.
They already fixed her back in Brawl with the introduction of the Zero Suit.

I think I'm going to ask for Magicant and Yoshi Island (Brawl) for Wii U. Well, I would love to see Spirit Train stage and Pictochat 2.

Its not filler but its not the version people playing at tournys and stuff. Beside 3DS installl base is like 4-5Xs the Wii U what a silly comparison.
