[Regulus Tera]

They're not going to take back their word on both versions sharing rosters. No way that's happening.

I doubt it.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Huh, so I have the codes after all, they're in the Promotions tab in Google email.

Gave them to my friends.

 

[Karsticles]

Trophies for playable characters are earned through Classic Mode - if you just earn a trophy naturally, then it implies that these characters aren't playable.

Sure, but there are no precedents for how DLC is handled.

Sakurai said they weren't going to consider DLC until post-release.

Every developer says this. It is never true.

 

[Regulus Tera]

Did anybody ever find a trophy for Lucas?

 

[TheSlySoul]

We are a smaller family now then... I still love you all guys #teamwiiu

Did I miss anything in the last 24 hours?

I think my team of #TeamBothVersions is the smallest one. Although my hype for the 3DS version fell a bit since only Smash mode is online. Hope the mini-games on Wii U are online.

 

[Snkfanatic]

Demo is great. Loving MegaMan so far.

 

[Gartooth]

I don't think it is a stretch to believe him.

From what we know he has an incredible work ethic and tries to fit as much as he can into the games before their release. Not to mention Mario Kart 8 where DLC pack 1 is 6 months after release and DLC pack 2 is a year after release.

 

[Alszem]

Hate the controls in the demo... Giving us the option the change them would've been great. The Circle Pad is awful.

Although i question how much I'll play the 3ds version once the WiiU one is out I've alway been on #teambothversions as well. My love for smash is just too strong

 

[Not75Drops]

They will probably just make new trophy models for any character that comes in as DLC.

Yet, still no Lucas trophy. > ... :crying

Well Ness has PK Freeze as a custom move so take that as you will.

 

[The Captain]

Some characters in Brawl had separate random trophies, like Fox and Falco. If they were to include any of these characters in DLC, it would be a simple matter of renaming the trophies "Wolf (Assault)" or to that effect. It's not a big deal.

Wait, seriosuly?

 

[uncleniccius]

Yay, a thread that seems like it's for me - the lack of 3DS stuff in here cheers me up.



The DLC dream still isn't dead for me - and it won't be until my Ice Climbers make their triumphant return!

 

[Gartooth]

Well Ness has PK Freeze as a custom move so take that as you will.

Yeah I'm not too confident about his DLC chances. Still he would be a unique fighter from Ness even without PK Freeze thanks to his normals.

 

[The Captain]

Hey, is swimming still in the game?

 

[Beelzebufo]

Well Ness has PK Freeze as a custom move so take that as you will.

He also has Lucas's up B and down B as special moves.

Hey, is swimming still in the game?

Don't think so.

 

[The_Intruder]

Guys what do you think about this?

 

[The Captain]

How exactly did Assist Trophies factor into All-Star mode?

 

[balladofwindfishes]

How exactly did Assist Trophies factor into All-Star mode?

I think it was a mistranslation of "all star cast"

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

Ridley trophy? Where!?


Wait, still no Ridley trophy?
isn't that really odd?

 

[Beelzebufo]

Ridley trophy? Where!?


Wait, still no Ridley trophy?

Not too weird. The two games have different trophy sets, the 3DS version doesn't have to include every Metroid enemy.

Like I'd guess WiiU might not have a Dark emperor trophy.

 

[Mine01]

Is there a list or video about the custom moves?

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

Not too weird. The two games have different trophy sets, the 3DS version doesn't have to include every Metroid enemy.

Fair enough, i forgot about that. Guess Ridley's not important enough to be in the 3DS ver ):

 

[Dr. Buni]

Which i find annoying, why should WiiU users potentially lose a character because of the 3DS.

The 3DS version is the main version of the game, why should it have less characters than the Wii U version?

 

[TheChits]

Hopefully we can hear about some of the wii u exclusive modes/features soon. I'm quite curious

 

[ugoo18]

The 3DS version is the main version of the game, why should it have less characters than the Wii U version?

Because SSB is a home console series. As such the home console version shouldn't have to suffer because of a handheld that lacks the grunt to do what Nintendo's home console 2 gens back could do just because of Sakurai loving handhelds so much.

Main version.....

A main version that requires jumping through hoops to do what the series has been known for since the beginning. Hardly the sign of a main version regardless of Sakurai and his idea of what will evolve the series. The home console version of SSB will always be the main version.

 

[Mysterious]

Looking at the CSS, Mario Kart 8 AOC and the upcoming Wii U version release, DLC is definitely coming.

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

The 3DS version is the main version of the game, why should it have less characters than the Wii U version?

Why did the 3DS ver have to be the main ver ):

 

[Gonzo The Great]

The 3DS version is the main version of the game, why should it have less characters than the Wii U version?

Because the 3DS is a weak piece of shit, and the Wii U version shouldn't be held back by it? RIP Ice Climbers.

.
What I've always thought, and its the main reason why I hate that the 3DS ver exists.

 

[Berordn]

The 3DS version is the main version of the game, why should it have less characters than the Wii U version?

So the main version of the game gets fewer brand new stages too?

 

[IntelliHeath]

Ridley trophy? Where!?

Maybe it's locked as one of those hard challenge's reward.

 

[RiggyRob]

After playing the demo, it seems like they fixed Link's face, or is that just the 3DS version making it look better?

 

[IntelliHeath]

Link always look better in 3DS version.

 

[Ryce]

We don't know how many brand new stages the Wii U version has.

 

[RiggyRob]

Link always look better in 3DS version.

I wonder why the Wii U version of Link's face is so bad then...

 

[Finale Fireworker]

Yeah, the differences between Link's face in each version is incredibly weird. His face on the Wii U is really wide and all his features are spaced apart. He looks so much better - and actually like Link - on the 3DS.

They pulled a Fallout 3 face on Link in the Wii U ver.

 

[Not75Drops]

I hardly ever registered games on Club Nintendo so now I'm going through most of my DS, Wii. 3DS and Wii U games in case something like this comes up again seeing as Europe Star Catalogue is pretty bad as well. There's only one thing I like there.

 

[munchie64]

Cross posting from the other thread as it seems to be relevant to both:

I know Sakurai holds a lot of sway in the series, but I really think Nintendo will push for DLC, whether he likes it or not. At least he likes patches!

 

[Anbec7]

Well Hello!
Has no one yet data mined the game? find something secret?
Any good streams SmashGAF?

 

[Golnei]

It requires current firmware, so it's more difficult to work with compared to older games.

 

[BGBW]

Maybe the DLC characters a WiiU only, and the WiiU version just doesn't have these deconfirming trophies in the first place.

Or like, Smash 6 or whatever.

The Wii U in unlikely to have these trophies because each version has its own set of trophies.

 

[Rrongfield]

When a character has a customized neutral B, Kirby copies the regular version of the attack, right?

 

[Beelzebufo]

The Wii U in unlikely to have these trophies because each version has its own set of trophies.

Yeah! So maybe it won't be a problem if DLC is like WiiU focused some how? I dunno.

 

[Berordn]

We don't know how many brand new stages the Wii U version has.

Wii U's already sitting pretty with 17 revealed new stages to 3DS's 23 final tally (15 to 21 if you don't feel like counting the new shared stages) They've still got a chance to cheap out, but if the final total of Wii U stages is also less than Brawl's total then they have seriously mishandled content, split versions or not.

 

[BGBW]

One character maybe of maybe not being cut because of the 3DS version is hardly holding the Wii U version back. Stages can be as crazy as they want, more items can probably be on the screen if they choose to, assists will be 60FPS. The Wii U version is its own beast. Also seeing as the new characters are some of the most ambitious additions to the roster yet, I'd hardly say the development team were held back.

I, for one, welcome Smash on the bus.

Spoiler

Which incidentally should have been the SSE storyline…

 

[Boss Doggie]

Man, 30fps nintendog is really bad

 

[BGBW]

Nintendog is general is bad.

 

[Peltz]

I have to say, I'm relieved the demo plays as well as it does. I wasn't a big fan of Brawl, and Melee is my personal favorite game ever.

This seems to be a decent blend of ideas advanced in Brawl, but without the tedium, and with a nice edge-guarding game.

 

[drotahorror]

Are there any easter eggs, secrets, hidden characters etc in the demo?

anyone?
