Super Smash Bros. General v16: Everyone is STICKERS! - Games

Something funny I noticed in the World of Light cutscene: Death laser bounces off of Link's shield Another death laser goes right fuckin' through Palutena's godly reflection shield

I'm definitely making a Mii of Jeff Gerstmann with the Toy-Con Set Mii costume when the game comes out https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/1867/153803a6-f667-4db1-8009-e29ec856fd1b/image.png

Incineroar Was Voiced By The Now Deceased Professor Oak Voice Ac..

As someone who skipped 4 and only played it a handful of times, the game's a guaranteed buy for me even without post-E3 characters. This direct wasn't too exciting but I was gonna get the game from the start anyway, and I believed Sakurai when he said they'd tone down the reveals so I wasn't too disappointed.

Might as well call the Hylian Shield "The Shield of Evil's Bane" because it reflect anything. Also at this point I'm convince Kirby is a fucking god that just wants to relax but shit keeps happening when he's around. Hylian Shield is the strongest shield, and Kirby the strongest being.

Well to end the "isn't spirits just custom smash?" debate once and for all: Partly. From what I have seen, Spirits is a move composed an Overworld, Bosses and special battles in which you can get "Spirits" aka stickers to slam on your character to beef up your dude. We don't know yet if itll take active grinding to get through it, but given its the smash AI I doubt it. So, what makes the battles different to the ones in custom smash? Well for all I know custom smash has a rather limited amount of options you can change - gravity, size, certain smaller gimmicks - yeah. However Spirits seems to tackle enemy behavior, assist trophy behavior and a variety of other factors to make it interesting. It seems to basically be custom gimmick matches on steroids. If that sounds like a fun time to you, you can decide, but it sounds neat to me. And I find the idea of the matches to be themed around certain characters cute. https://i.imgur.com/EGuG8Is.png Other examples include the Owain one where the foe likes to taunt and has specifically increased melee damage, the one where its just King K rool afk who is surrounded by powerful assist trophies, list goes on. As far as I know, custom smash does not allow you to make matches like this. Spirits mode sounds like a lot of fun if: you dont have to massively grind/progression is good battles continue to be relatively unique

So what you’re telling me is that we’re literally going to be able to play as Waluigi’s pet Piranha Plant. Fine by me.

I gotta pour one out for Inciniroar fans. I like him, he was my starter in sun/moon because I thought it was funny to have a heel wrestler pokemon that suplexes shit. His design was fun and goofy and I liked him more than the bird that felt like it was the generic "cool" pokemon or Primarina who uh... existed I guess. I even pulled for him in smash months before verge started pushing for him because if we got a pokemon in I thought he'd be fun due to the wrestler moveset. Then Verge posted him as well as literally every insider and people went ballistic and started hating him on that principle alone. Like it became this forbidden rule that you can't like him because of the fuck insiders mentality (which btw fuck """"insiders""""). Now if you say you like him "Ugh you only like him because you're a fucking furry/ you just want a shitty troll pick to make people upset" Like fuck off for real maybe I wanted a wrestling pokemon because I thought it would be cool

Online matchmaking still makes this an insta-buy for me.

Why did they reveal Piranha Plant as a DLC character? Because he's still in the pipeline.

Looks like they didn't plant ahead.

The latest kirby game hinted that he is basically an elder god. so, y'know.

At least we were right that we're getting 5 more stages for 108

On the brighter side of things https://twitter.com/MightyKeef/status/1058056497073152003 Why is Sakurai so much better at treating games with respect?

Did we? I might have missed that.

lmao i hate to admit this but incineroar looks really fun to play. sakurai also somewhat fixed his design, making him a little bit more muscular https://www.smashbros.com/assets_v2/img/fighter/incineroar/ss_6.jpg

Hopefully we get Mute City Melee.

surely that next 5 are for the dlc characters so not likely?

The one thing I'm not a fan of Incineroar's design is his hands being big and his arms skinny.

I don't understand people's complaints about Spirits mode. People say "it's just a grindy gacha game" but like... it's fucking Smash Bros. There's 76 fucking characters in this game at launch, shouldn't people have a chance to practice all of them even if they don't have friends to play with at the time? There seems like there's enough interesting scenarios to keep things from getting boring. Imagine if every trophy in Smash 4 had a unique event associated with it. That doesn't sound fun? The grinding isn't pointless, it will help you get better at and more familiar with the game's massive character pool.

People gave it way more credit than it ever deserved. It's just a tiny photoshopped banner that other people were able to replicate in a couple hours. People found the grinch render already existed but stuff like that just kind of... got ignored because of blind hype and desires. People were harassing a companies video because the place looked similar so they took it down. Instead of backing down and realizing it was removed in he hopes of "please stop" smash fans doubled down "THEY REMOVED IT TO STOP US THIS IS THE BEST RUSE EVER." General stuff like that. I'm not exactly saying this applies to anyone in the thread but a lot of folks across the net really should of just took the warning signs as that- warning signs.

Each DLC figther in the pass (aka, not including P. plant) has a stage coming along with it.

It looks like stupid, chaotic fun. The kind of thing that made me like Subspace Emissary and Smash Run all the more. It's going to let you do much more than just avoid flinching or spawn a weapon, and I'm excited to see what the more "rare" stickers do.

Thread is going kinda fast, so I don't know if this was previously discussed. Petey shows up in Nintendo VS's tweet of Piranha Plant, but I don't know if he's a boss or what. https://twitter.com/NintendoVS/status/1058005068966850560 He's got his two cages again, too.

Final Smash

Yoooooo, when can I pre-order the new young Link amiibo??

I really wanna see the renders in their full form

wait, i'm still confused. are world of light and spirits the same thing or not? like i get that they use the same mechanics but are they two different modes?

I fucking love Piranha Plant as a character tbh. I always wanted him as a fighter, but more so as Petey Piranha. Ken is great too. Incineroar is the only one that I groaned at.

The Spirits menu hides Spirits Mode (the bounty board thing) and World of Light (the adventure mode thing).
