Toys R Us and Target
Bowser is very solid and heavy.

Okay, I'll go looking around at my nearby Target tomorrow.

Probably won't buy anything, but it's worth checking it out myself.

 

[Ahnez]

don't you ever group those two together

Lightning is like Cloud, but at same time is another playable female character. Everybody wins

Spoiler

lol

 

[Jintor]

Sakurai has aged surprisingly well, but I think part of the reason he looks older in the 23 years old picture than he does now is probably just his expression. If he smiled that wide now, he'd probably look about the same, if not a little older.

He's got that wry smile thing going on now. Like he's discovered the secret to life, the universe, and smashing

 

[Ahnez]

So, Sakurai is like a jrpg final boss then

That explains a lot

 

[Jintor]

If the final boss this time around was just sakurai's disembodied floating head I don't think anyone would be too surprised

 

[MaverickHunterAsh]

Sorry to be a hype-killer, but I don't think we're getting a veteran tonight. But the only reason why is that I'm 99% sure we're getting Ganondorf for Hyrule Warriors' Japanese release next week, and I don't think Sakurai would give us two vets so close together. Hope I'm wrong, though!

I knew GameXplain was awesome.

Ha! I can't speak for Andre or Derrick, but yeah, I love Spear Pillar.

In addition, there were the 4 trophies in the Smash direct; Fi, Tiki, pseudo palutena and King Kihunter but I couldn't tell which version they belong to.

Oh yeah, I forgot about those!

You don't understand, bro. We are going to get a veteran every night.

You can't kill my Pichu hype.

Now every night I am starting to hope for a shulk deconfirmation.

Not because I hate shulk
Not because I hate people who like shulk
Not because I hate xenogears,

I do not hate or have beef with any of these things.


I wanna see the melt downs.

I wanna see 4chan go APE.

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

I haven't been keeping up with this game since Lucina was announced. Anything new interesting?

Honestly same. Nothing against Shulk, but I'd just rather have the meltdowns than Shulk lol.

Not if you're a fan of Takamaru.

We got a Paper Mario stage and N's Castle as a stage on the 3DS version, plus some other generally neat things.

Were there any rumor characters that people were DEAD SURE would be in brawl, but ended up NOT being in brawl? Was mega man one of those? I wonder if shulk could be a similar situation, where everyone is leaking him, but then he ends up not being in.

I guarantee Ridley will cause the biggest meltdowns either way.

 

[-Horizon-]

That Pichu hype will go nicely next to that Ridley hype.

Lucina was the high point. We're just waiting on deconfirmations now lol.

 

[PadWarrior]

I see what you did lol.

 

[MrSaturn99]

I guarantee Ridley will cause the biggest meltdowns either way.

Definitely. Besides, at the very least you can't turn down Xenoblade music!

 

[Hatchtag]

I guarantee Ridley will cause the biggest meltdowns either way.

If Sakurai announced Ridley was in and K. Rool was out, or vice versa, on the same day, I think the internet might actually break.

You should wait for Ridley disconfirmation because it's pretty bigger than Shulk.

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

Yep, Ridley has polarized people so much that we'll get a torrent epic meltdowns regardless of if he's playable or not.

Definitely. Besides, at the very least you can't turn down Xenoblade music!

They could add a Xenoblade track or two to the Zelda or Fire Emblem stages, just like how they had the Mach Rider theme on Big Blue in Melee.

Yeah well I have a beef with you.

 

[Not75Drops]

A bit off-topic but they actually added the whole Munchakoopas thing to Yoshi's wikipedia page. Never mind the fact that it has never been referenced since therefore doesn't even matter. Kind of like the Koopalings dropping the "Koopa" from their names

 

[afoni]

shulk would have been revealed as an assist trophy by now if he wasn't making it into the roster because we're already into the japanese niche shit

expect shulk

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

Does /v/ even like Shulk?

When Gematsu was "BTFO!" I recall a lot of people celebrating Shulk was de-confirmed and acting like he suddenly had no chance of getting in.

 

[Village]

Why not both man.

Watching the world burn, the oldest spectator sport.

I don't think they particularly care for Shulk, honestly. Ridley or K. Rool really would be the biggest meltdown there.

 

[Fireblend]

"Good news! Due to the community's response I have decided to turn Chrom into a playable character, similar to Marth like Lucina. However this means we had to scrap development on Shulk and Ridley. We salvaged their models as trophies though!"

 

[Benzychenz]

Pics up early!

Can't wait for the comment on this one.

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

That only dates back to Rome. The real oldest spectator sport is "Watch the dumbest member of your tribe antagonize that big, scary animal and get his ass killed," or, as it's know nowadays "Watching the junior pick a fight with a mod."

 

[MrSaturn99]

They could add a Xenoblade track or two to the Zelda or Fire Emblem stages

But having Shulk+a stage means we'd get more.

just like how they had the Mach Rider theme on Big Blue in Melee.

That arrangement always creeped me out for some reason.

 

[Geminosity]

Y'know... unlike the later gif for getting vibe back, which is rather specific to Kyzon and moi, I expected this to be generic enough to get some re-use at some point, but in the same thread only a few pages later? That surprised me

Forgive me if this has already been posted, but I can't stop laughing.

That genuinely got a giggle out of me XD

 

[nintendoman58]

Shulk has more chances of getting in as a playable newcomer than Ridley or King K. Rool ever does.

Sakurai apparently really likes Monolith Soft to my knowledge, we've gotten nothing Xenoblade related in Smash so far, and a sequel to the franchise is currently in development.

He's gonna be in, I can feel it.

 

[PadWarrior]

ROFL!!!!

"Good news! Due to the community's response I have decided to turn Chrom into a playable character, similar to Marth like Lucina. However this means we had to scrap development on Shulk and Ridley. We salvaged their models as trophies though!"

I support this.

(Sorry Shulk.)

So...true boss arena with sakurai's soul as the secret boss?

 

[ALM5252]

I really don't like this new Final Destination. I think it was to do with the crystals and stuff sticking out from the bottom. Looks weird and awkward imaging the characters sliding up the wall when recovering.

I also didn't like Brawls. They both are too thin for me personally. Melee and 64's are great because the octagonal design to them. Brawls and 4 have the better backgrounds though.

It's about the journey, not the destination. And every good journey needs a few...rough patches to help heighten the drama and suspense.

 

[nerdbot]

I'm feeling the announcement of another newcomer trailer tonight! It's been a good month since the last one.

Yeah, I'm feeling either this Monday or next we'll get a newcomer trailer again, and then a final one leading up to launch.

 

[IntelliHeath]

I wonder if we are going to get anything specie tomorrow or next week. Hopefully we would hear something interesting about CoroCoro.

 

[Hatchtag]

if the game got delayed so more drama could happen, I think I'd honestly prefer that.

 

[Nia]

I'd take the game getting cancelled outright rather than deal with more drama and children shouting blown the fuck out over and over.

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

Nope, like Andross, his brain is the secret boss.

Only I have the brains to makes Smash Bros.

 

[The Bankslammer]

all in on ice climbers again dammit

this is going to keep happening every damn thursday evening until i see their dumb faces on w w w dot smash bros dot com

 

[PadWarrior]

I'd probably leave the thread, the anger from a delay would be too great.

Gimme another veteran, Sakurai.

We'll get several in the upcoming Smash Direct.

[Sketch_Turntable]

If the whole roster is getting revealed next week via CC, i hope we get 1 more awesome reveal trailer.

Gannondorf, Ness, Meta Knight and Shulk (or some other newcomer) in one mega awesome video, please!

Nooooooooooooo I've had my fill of drama, egos, and childish jank, thank you, lol
