The Smash Bros Discussion Thread


Unused announcer clips found. Of note there's:
-Boss Battle
-Tourney
-Event Match
-Special Smash
-Grab the Coins
-8 player smash

Most of these seem like possible modes that will be returning to the Wii U version, but 8 player smash...that's very interesting.
 
Player icons up to 8p were also found in the game's code. Interesting.

Maybe they'll come to the 3DS version as DLC later? I can't imagine them really sharing code.
 
A match with all the Koopalings on the screen at once.
 
I like to pretend Mario Party 7 never happened.
Son, I am disappointed in you.
 
I guess that explains why every character went up to at least eight costumes this time
 
Grinding for customs is getting really really tiring and I'm the first character still.

I've got 25 Sonic customs... but only 5 unique, still need 3 more
 
so you can have 8 characters
on screen
all at once
which was the stated difficulty in implementing the Ice Climbers

sakurai at this point I don't know what you think
if there is any thought at all at this point

Yeah but then you'd have 32 Ice Climbers on screen at once, and that's just silly

can you goddamn imagine
 
Ruin, what are we going to do with this kid? I think I'm going to have a talk with his teacher tomorrow...
 
Adopt me. I am not a failure.

I, however, am not Canadian, so you're losing one thing.

Which is why it's not in the game. But whatever it is must have had a lot of work put into it to get far enough to have narrator lines recorded.

That's a plus.
Okay, Better Tanner, you're in.

And Ice Climbers got enough into development for them to get crowd cheers.
 
they got enough into development that they were completely working on one of the versions of the game

well you do like squids and ness and JSR so that's already like
9 things better than Tanner right there
 
I won't fail you Pap and Mum.

Also I'm 4 characters away from finishing Classic Mode with everyone, yerggggghhh.
 
tanner
8 times 2 is 16

I'm an English major

That's all I need to say

They were planning on adding a 3rd ice climber this time- Dark Popo.
As seen in the upcoming ice climbers reboot.

That is the real hard truth

8 Player Mario Party games were stupid fun

CASE IN POINT:
Wow, I totally forgot about those games. 8 Player mini-games made for the greatest salty addition to birthday parties and group hangouts.
 
8 player Captain Falcon matches though
on a stage with the Fire Emblem music from melee
oh the wonderful music that could be made
 
So here's something I just found out (forgive me if it's common knowledge, but I hadn't heard anyone say it):
Apparently Villager can pocket the power pellet at the end of Pac-Man's sideB
before he's finished laying it out.
Like it travels forward, Villager pockets it, and the move just ends leaving Pac-Man back in neutral.
 
FLYIN' TO YOUR SOOOUL!
Sorry, I thought of Bust-a-Groove... y'know... Robo-Z's song...
 
Is it bad I'm warming up to Dark Pit?
 
I have this strange, regretful urge to like him too. Maybe because I love Uprising so much.
 
For your viewing "pleasure"

How dare you have your own opinion that goes against the popular one

How dare you be a salmon swimming upstream
