Super Smash Bros. Wii U/3DS

[EGGXI]

Okay, so I searched the forums and couldn't find a thread for this game. I don't know how many have a Wii U or a 3DS or whatever but I've spoken to a fair few about Smash Bros. in general on these forums so. Here it is I guess.

Confirmed Characters:

Spoiler

Mario
Samus
Link
Fox
Kirby
Pit
Donkey Kong
Bowser
Wii Fit Trainer
Megaman
Pikachu
Villager

Semi-confirmed due to the concept art (tweeted by Sakurai I think)

Spoiler

Luigi
Zero Suit Samus
Meta Knight
Mr Game & Watch
Marth
Wario
Maybe Olimar as there is a Pikmin

So who else do you want in? How do you feel about the game? What stages/items do you want to see returned? Who or what don't you want to see return?

Also gameplay speed is said to be somewhere between Melee & Brawl. And that tripping has been removed!

They're gonna have smash bros for the 3DS?

Yeah, was announced alongside the Wii U version. No play between console and handheld. Too different.

3DS will have some different features, characters have been outlined in black so they are easier to see, different gameplay modes, stages from 3DS games etc. Wii U will have stages from Wii U games.

Personally I don't like Villager being in. I hope Sonic doesn't come back, or if he does that they at least improve on him.

Mega Man is so kawaii in this game! I love the way he runs.

Also, I totally approve of Zero Suit Samus. It would also be cool to see Bayonetta because Bayonetta 2 is a Wii U exclusive. She might not really fit in the game, though. And of course, I've always wanted to see a Final Fantasy character. Kingdom Hearts would be cool, too.

 

[PPJ]

anyways I'm hoping bomberman and mewtwo make it in.

expect anywhere from a 40-48 character roster... DLC is a maybe

i'm interested in any new gameplay mechanics

 

[EGGXI]

Eddyward so glad they used this awesome design for Megman, it looks so much better. I can see Bayonetta happening. Final Fantasy is a tricky one as they haven't been on Nintendo systems in a long time. KH's more spin-offy titles have but none of the main games so far, which is weird .

I wouldn't say no, but I don't think they will appear. I'd love a full fighting game though from Sqeenix and some other publisher. But not that Dissidia crap, that was the most boring fighter ever.

I think Sakurai said in an interview that he doesn't want to do DLC.. but I could be wrong. The roster is allegedly the same size as Brawl. Also I have a terrible feeling that new looking Mewtwo from Pokemon X/Y will make it is instead:

...dafuq is that...

 

[Eddyward]

Yeah, I really don't think Final Fantasy is going to happen, but playing as Noctis in a Super Smash Bros game would be a dream come true. I wonder if they're going to add Zelda and/or Peach again? It doesn't seem likely that they would remove them. Samus/Zero Suit Samus was my main in past installments, so I do hope they keep the option to transform into Zero Suit Samus. It'd be cool if we were more easily able to switch; I could never consistently get that taunt command to happen.

I don't mind the new design, I just want him back T_T
Take what Sakurai and others said in multiple interviews with a grain of salt, 3DS limitations shouldn't affect the Wii U version's roster size. Also keep in note there will be no massive story mode like SSE in Brawl, so I'm being hopeful and expecting a good 8-12 character roster increase from Brawl with minimal cuts.

CANT FUCKING WAIT!!!!!!!!!! must invent time machine..

 

[AZ MotherBrain]

I would love bomberman. Also, sense namco is aiding in development, I think nightmare maybe possible.

 

[AZ MotherBrain]

And Lyn from fire emblem Issac from golden sun and somebody, anybody from advance wars. And why not the infamous missing no. just for shenanigans.

 

[EGGXI]

I'm not sure if I want to see Namco putting in their characters or not. One would be alright I guess, but hopefully no more than that.
Would love to see Bomberman, I wonder if they'll take away Link's bomb though if he's in

I'd like to see Rayman as well...

I heard this was not actually happening at first, but I'm guessing it's real now? I'm not dissing the design at all - it's an interesting concept, but if it's an evolution of Mewtwo, it's kind of strange since he looks smaller or something. But my boyfriend would just be happy that he'd be back in the game.

I'm all excited about this game, but I don't even have a Wii U, and I want a PS4. Who's in the same boat?

 

[PPJ]

too many sword users and requests, need more weapon variety i.e axes, spear/lance, staff, daggers, etc

 

[EGGXI]

...I don't care if Microsoft own them, I want Banjo & Kazooie dammit! Either separately or together, preferably the latter.

Their movelists write themselves!

 

[Eddyward]

I heard that Ness had a low chance of being included again. I feel like Villager is going to replace him.

Really? I imagine they will still have Lucas in though.

I really hope for no clone characters in this time round. I don't need two Links, two Pikachu's etc.
I can see Falco making it in because of popularity, but I hope we don't get Wolf again.
I would like to see a different incarnation of Ganon make it instead of his Cap Falcon-style moves.

 

[afrozilla86]

I would expect roughly 50 characters if the trend of +12-13 characters continue. Hopefully they improve ness and make neutral b a boost to recovery. Upb has killed his viability in every smash, and I could only make him competitive in ssb and mid tier ssbb.

 

[Geoduck]

I would like to see Bomber Man as well, but seeing how hudson is dead and all, and how Konami hasn't done anything with him in recent years, his chances seem slim. That, and not to mention he would have to make it in after Snake, since you know, he's Snake and all.

Oh I forgot to mention, apparently on the current build they are working on there is no tripping, gameplay speed is faster than brawl but slower than melee and you can air dodge as much as you want in one jump.

I would expect roughly 50 characters if the trend of +12-13 characters continue.

I don't think it will be that size. They've said they want to keep it the same as brawl roughly and also 50+ is a nightmare to balance. Look at MK:A.

I've noticed they have upped the percentage of serial killers in this game... as much as I love megaman he is a vicious psychopath that enjoys hunting other robots down to eliminate them then steal their powers, and villager always carries around an axe and a shovel wherever he goes... I wonder why?

Pfft, robots aren't people!
Jus' kiddin' Megaman is sort of sociopath, but he's more like... a vigilante, like he just goes around killing bad guys.

Villager... that guy is pure serial killer, especially with catching people in a net (0_o)
