The thing scan-able trophies... holly shit smash bros will be brutal on your wallet. Collecting every trophy in real life and not in game.

And in Animal Crossing for Wii, they could come out with a whole set of FURNITURE you could buy and set on top of the controller (very, very carefully). Team up with Ikea or something.

It's more like: "man, you Nintendo guys with your fourth speculation thread, you crazy!"

We're all crazy on this board. To some degree.

Seeing Sony All Stars and playing Xenoblade again gives me an urge to want Shulk in the next Smash Bros. Well, at least a Xenoblade stage and a Reyn assist trophy

My source is my ass!
Leaked through survey; pics on kotaku with all the environments he named.

Same day he made that post.

Well, it's not a secret, i clearly talked on the relevant message about the kotaku leaked images. The announcement that the game is developed by Ubi Montpellier for the Wii U wasn't heard before though, it was a confirmation. That + the weeks old hints about this project, before the kotaku leaks.

Phew, it's getting old actually.

I have other infos that should be proven right at E3, then you'll owe me something for your consistency to doubt me, as i'm a giant farce making up all his posts since 2 months for whatever obscure reasons.

Well the new Rayman Legends trailer leak pretty much confirms wireless USB abilities on the Wii-Pad being used to add cast to a game now. If Ubisoft is already planning figurines of Rabbids, Hearts, and Ezio to make that sweet sweet Skylanders merch cash you had better believe Nintendo is settling in for Smash.

Congrats GAF. You were right.

I didn't even know this was a theory here till a moment ago in the Rayman trailer thread. I'd been thinking this for months and here it turns out I'm not alone! Go us.

We've known that companies would do this since Nintendo revealed the NFC capabilities of the controller.
It's just too good to pass up.
 
If I don't get some nice long wires for my pad let I'm going to be so mad at you guys

I've said this before in this thread Nintendo does not spend Apple money on batteries so I need some wires they can be detachable

Haha oh wow. Your backpedaling is even saltier than the original post.

This is what I don't understand about that thread.

Where did you see salt? I'm buying that game day one. It looks cool from the vids I saw. I'm a huge Smash Bros fan, and I'm sure the gameplay will transition over well with the Sony characters.

But the game is a fucking Smash Bros rip off. This is a fact. It's apparent seconds after watching a gameplay video.

For whatever reason, calling it a ripoff seems to come off as "FUCK SONY THOSE SLIMY FUCKS STEAL ALL OF NINTENDO'S IDEAS!" in that thread. In reality, I couldn't give two fucks about Nintendo's ideas and who rips them off. If Sony can take the Smash Bros formula and improve on it, that would be awesome.

The battery should be fine, regardless.
But I'm betting it'll use some sort of standard USB cable to charge.

I could swear Ubisoft planned this I mean come on ideaman knew about the whole thing before the leak

I bet if someone tracked it back to a source they would find it was a leak...
also kinda fishy that it came out the day Sony Smash came out :|

why would Nintendo care about this nothing big was shown and the game is not exclusive to WiiU

Funny part is that a not-supposed-to-be-seen trailer is being highly praised while
the PSASBR official announcement was literally destroyed

I like you a lot as a poster and don't want to see you go. Maybe you should just stop now because I don't want you to disappear :(

I agree with most of your points btw.

Hey man, it's a copy of SSB, I see that, everyone sees that.
It takes the SSB formula and tries to put it's own spin on things, with a completely different roster that appeals to a different group of people. We'll see in the end how it works out.
Even the devs talk enthusiastically about the inspiration they got from SSB, they don't shy away from that comparison at all.

But you called it a ripoff because it uses the same 4 primary colors for the 4 players.
Come on man, that's just hilarious, and not in a joke way.
 
Again, guys. Please. The Sony game discussion does not belong here. We have more than enough stuff to discuss without bordering on banable posts.

Dude, you're trying to take credit for something that anybody on this board could of foretold/predicted, and saying it validates you as having inside information. Your previous posts about the subject prove nothing. Ubisoft has an unannounced title in development for Wii-U? Seriously, that's insane! How did you come up with that? And you're so indepth too!

Other then this and your countless teases and announcements of coming "news", I have no other problems with you.

Sorry, i've not reach yet a first/second-party level of leakage :p

Still, can you talk with EL about some freedom for me to pimp the board with pink headers, french pastries .jpg, annoying lyrical midi played on background, etc ?
 
Um, I understand fully. I'm not blaming the mods for the part that you bolded; rather, I'm saying like it seems like those guys wait until they don't think there's anyone there to make them stop.

Oh I see; apologies BurntPork.

However, if they wish to risk their GAF account by posting something that may lead them to be banned at a later time, that is their choice.

My post was more intended to be a reminder of what the FAQ says, using your post as a launching point, than a direct reply to you only, anyway.

I would much rather GAFers PM'd a Mod than bear a grievance over what they consider an unpunished injustice.

I don't like to see people bearing a grudge as that is not good for anyone, especially the psychological health of the individual concerned.

Speaking of which...

Yeah, I think it's safer if we all stay away from the Sony All-Stars thread.
Not worth getting banned over.

I steer well clear of all threads that I can tell from the thread titles are going to be, how shall I say.....lively.

I have learnt to do that for my own psychological well being.
 
I had heard there was going to be a 2D Rayman for Wii U, but I assumed it was going to be Origins.

Because, well, Ubisoft.

I think I posted "I hope you guys like Rayman Origins" a few threads back.

I think I remember that.
I'm also surprised that it's not Origins.
Though, I'm surprised it's getting a sequel at all, and that there will be Wii U exclusive content...

Well Ubisoft are trying to be (and are) Nintendo's biggest 3rd party publisher so...yeah.

I approve of all these things, make it so!

No. Leak Retro's game first!

This too would be sufficient.

Okay you're next. Leak Eternal Darkness 2.

I know it is early and all, but it sure seems like Ubisoft's Wii U launch lineup is going to be significantly better than what they had out for the Wii. So that is a good first step.

Of course, the real test is in a year or two.

Unless they add it for other versions in some way

It could be the equivalent of Kinect voice commands. They might just have a button or menu option for something similar

Anything's better than Monster Trucks 4x4....

Well, according to the trailer, some of the platforming elements are exclusive. If not the NFC stuff.

I'm not taking credit from anything, it's just another point, after others (like the lherre message here), that tends to prove that i have really insider infos. Go back to thread 3 or 2, maybe on GRO thread or another one, i specifically stated and hinted heavily that some people should expect another project that those announced/found that is not a fps, a bta, a dance game, etc. + the yesterday confirmation of the Wii U version, more than ten hours before, not by pure chance, the video leak. Now, if you think that i came to the board yesterday, and said "hey, let's make them believe i have insider info and create a fake news about a Wii U version", it's your choice. I won't elaborate further on the topic to not pollute it, sorry for the others :)

Seriously...
I loved the first one to dead but I thought it flopped so hard they wouldn't even botter with a sequel

Games like these totally deserve better sales.

No idea!

I do know that laid off employees from SK were asked to sign NDAs about the project they were working on prior to termination.

It does not seem like SK's usual partners would be that paranoid.

More evidence on the pile.

Sounds like...Wii Music 2!

There's an explanation for that here

Sorry for the late reply, got caught up in Kid Icarus. Thank you though <3

Have you seen any leaks from The Ritualist (Sega/THQ) or other SK prototypes? SK seems to take a pretty tight approach when it comes to their NDAs. SK even made big trouble after 3 in-game objects of The Ritualist leaked, which did not reveal anything. Their publishing contract had long been terminated.
