Nothing yet that I've seen. I don't think we'll see anything too big until the US release is out there and probably not until a week or two after that.

In other news, The Big House 4 is looking like it'll have over 400 entrants for Melee. Jesus Christ, Melee.

DAMN

anyway I asked because Clashtournament's Twitch stream says KTAR X and The Fall Classic will both have the 3DS version, dunno if that's old info though

I'm sure you've answered this at some point, but what are your feelings on Link now that you've had some more hands-on time?
He's still great, still my main. Villager messes me up, though, constantly stealing my projectiles. I like him better than toon link, now that toon link is seemingly nerfed.

Definitely the strongest/best link has ever been in any smash, I think. Even if he ends up lower tier, he's still much better than ever before.

Are the colours one chooses in their own copy really that dangerous to the image of companies?

Ubisoft didn't allow Namco to let players use Ezio's fighting style for character creation in Soul Calibur 5 since they didn't want people making silly characters use Ezio's moveset. Also in Mortal Kombat 9, Kratos wasn't allowed to look scared or worried for his life in the fatalities so he instead just has odd animations where he roars and shouts battle cries before being killed. When it comes to cameo appearances the owner can be real picky.

Uh oh. How has Toon Link been nerfed?

His air game got a bit worse, can't do back air multiple times in air anymore, no longer has the pogo bounce (which is ok, i guess). Just feels like a few of his strengths are no longer there. He's not bad, just not as good as he was in brawl, i don't think? Need to mess around with him more.

Zelda is hype

Yeah, she seems to be all about teleporting. Does decent damage and knockback, so it's just playing teleporting mindgames with your opponent.

Does Toon Link have fire arrows as customs?

I got one, it's weird, it's a fire arrow that basically drops to the ground 10 feet in front of link, and creates a fire trap. If it hits the enemy, it does basically no damage.

That was my impression from the demo, but glad to hear it carries over to the main game. And glad your main is stronger than ever before! Honestly, his dash attack alone makes him way more exciting for me.
 
Yeah, confirmed you can save replays after for glory matches.



Did it myself.

Once again, still no way to export these videos :/

Really hoping youtube support will be added into wii u version, or at least miiverse posting of them.
Thanks for checking it out! :)

Really awesome feature. Atleast we can record replays on a camera then upload them to youtube. Would be great to do that for the GAF Tourneys.
 
Bowser Jr. + all seven Koopalings + the Clown Car are seriously like a dream-come-true newcomer for me. The fan service, the iconic imagery, the creativity... A character compelling to watch and play.

Super-pumped about their inclusion. :)

My only criticism is that they look rather lifeless in their idle position, even as Bowser Jr. Don't know why they couldn't animate them slightly better in that regard.

I simply cannot find an answer:

For Team Battle, can I somehow select my friend and can we go into matchmaking together?

Or is it simply just matching against 3 other people and random teams?
 
Anybody with the game have Little Mac impressions? He's my prospective main and I was hoping to see something a bit more in depth about him rather than "good on the ground, not in the air"

Sounds like I might switch from Toon Link to Link. His air game seems better, dash attack is great, and ftilt seems really powerful.
 
It seems all too disappointing that Ms. Pac-Man and Metal Sonic weren't made alts. We should have had more different-character alts than Alph and the Koopalings. How about:

Mr. L
Daisy
Boshi
Funky Kong
Fierce Deity (proper alt)
Masked Dedede
Galacta Knight
Dragon King
Paula
Blood Falcon
Ms. Pac-Man
Metal Sonic

Oh boy :( That's sad to hear. I hope he doesn't have Young Link levels of damage or I really won't be able to use him anymore...

Ugh, why are they doing 3 stocks? I hope that doesn't become the normal thing.

It's going to vary among TOs, I'm thinking. It's a good idea to experiment with multiple kinds of rule sets early on. If 3 stocks doesn't work out, then it doesn't work out. (I'm favoring 2 stocks fwiw, though).

Yeah, I guess there's no harm in experimenting since the game's still young. I just want to see as many different characters as possible on this stream right now haha
