super smash bros - LEAK TIME AGAIN (RECAP: Yes, they're really adding Krystal from Star Fox, videos

[Rockeiro]

samus needs some serious hitbox adjustments. Playing against shorter characters like nes, pikachu or olimar, you can pretty much throw side smash and upsmash out the window as kill moves.

[QUOTE=Sift;48563620]Yeah, Phil Spencers a cool guy and both companies aren't openly hostile to each other but to me it's comparable to going in a game store and asking for Mario on a xbox. The companies are nice to each other but they aren't going to really promote each other.[/QUOTE]
The only reason Snake got into Brawl was because Kojima asked, despite the fact the last MGS on a Nintendo system at the time was for the Gamecube. He just happened to have a good relationship with Sakurai and with Nintendo overall. Snake's inclusion was basically an endorsement for MGS4 (a PS3 exclusive), by the logic you're using.

You're saying virtually the same thing has no chance of happening a second time?

I agree it's unlikely, but your assertion of absolute zero probability (or even close to zero) is contradictory to things they've already done. If they cared about promoting the competition they'd have said no to Snake.

Snake isn't owned by Xbox or Sony. MGS3 3D came out and it's not impossible for snake to appear on a nintendo console again (though konami will never let it happen these days)

Banjo is owned by xbox. It's two seperate things entirely.

[QUOTE=Keychain;48563640]People wanted Shovel Knight in ever since the ballots opened. Latest rumors have nothing to do with it.

At no point was I saying "Shovel Knight will be in the game." I am merely defending the possibility of it happening.[/QUOTE]

Thing is, it's over for him. This was the megaton and I'm just saying the rumors themselves have been proven wrong. If you think it from a rational viewpoint it wouldn't make sense for Nintendo to release a Shovel Knight amiibo, only to have to remake the same thing for a insanely niche character a couple months later. They would of waited.

That with the rumors being wrong mean there's nothing left. That's honestly all I'm trying to say- and this is coming from someone who if I was forced to pick a indie I would of gone with Shovel Knight.

[Zadrave]

There's 5 things that are possibilities

Shovel Knight due to the recent rumors
Wolf because logical reasons, probably not, maybe at release of Star Fox 0

And if we are talking about the maintenance:
Snake due to the 1 day before MGS:TPP release
Rayman due to 1 day before Rayman's 20th anniversary

Or they surprise us

Any stated above will definitely be a surprise. Okay, maybe not Wolf but Snake coming back? Rayman?

I'll even be surprised if they announce anything!

What I mean by "surprise" is something that we can't speculate on due to no relevancy that we know of.

I wonder how high Shrek and Goku are on the ballot because of all the epic memers out there.

[QUOTE=MissingGlitch;48564394]I wonder how high Shrek and Goku are on the ballot because of all the epic memers out there.[/QUOTE]
This is why they will never show the actual results.

[Shadow Novus]

[QUOTE=MissingGlitch;48564394]I wonder how high Shrek and Goku are on the ballot because of all the epic memers out there.[/QUOTE]

Sometimes I have nightmares where Sakurai completely omits any ballot data outside Japan for that reason :why:

[Keychain]

Let's be honest. Everyone would buy Goku.

[MissingGlitch]

I'm sure everyone would buy Shrek as well just to see how they made him play.

[Keychain]

I rephrase my statement. Imagine how much money joke characters would make.

[spiritlol]

Shrek is a Wario clone.

He always has full strength waft.

[Sift]

Each time you KO shrek he returns smaller and smaller, faster but weaker.

Do not peel away the layers

[Laffle]

Mario in for glory is becoming as annoying as Sonic for me, because [B]they all do the same god damn thing.

Dthrow, utilt, utilt, utilt, bthrow offstage, fair.

It's so boring to see the same combos used over and over and over again. I know it's effective, but it's just not fun.

perfection

[PGunnii]

For glory is basically "use the same corny top tier tournament approved unescapable combo until the other person gets frustrated and loses don't use any other characters"

[Scruffel]

Speaking of For Glory, I've been noticing a pattern against my opponents.

If they lose first or second match, they switch to Link, or Samus, DHD, etc.

[sp]And most of the time, they lose.[/sp]

I haven't played in awhile, and I've forgotten about tourney mode until just now. Someone fill me in, what exactly were the issues with tourney mode again??

[Sift]

I hope you like four man free for all with a hard 3 minute time limit that arbitrarily decides the winner based on who took the least amount of damage instead of sudden death.

[Stormbuster]

[QUOTE=postal;48565084]I haven't played in awhile, and I've forgotten about tourney mode until just now. Someone fill me in, what exactly were the issues with tourney mode again??[/QUOTE]

Limitations are crap, time allotted is too short for even a two-stock match to finish (3 minutes) , ties are broken by damage dealt and not lowest percentage, disconnecting disqualifies both you and your opponent from the tournament. The "competitive" option switches FFAs with 1v1s but forces Final Destination/Omega stages to always play, and you as the player are not even allowed to create 1v1 tourneys, [i]they have to be official Nintendo tournaments for that to happen and users are not allowed to choose to not be FFA[/i], which just suggests that they think users can't make competitive tournaments.

It's either a result of blatant disregard for how competitive play works or the most fantastic ignorance possible, and it honestly feels like the former when one considers how the game disables bosses/hazards in 8-player Smash on Pyrosphere but prevents the player from doing so manually.

[QUOTE=postal;48565084]I haven't played in awhile, and I've forgotten about tourney mode until just now. Someone fill me in, what exactly were the issues with tourney mode again??[/QUOTE]

On the pro side it allows you to use customs against randoms.

The con side is that it doesn't follow the smash community's tournament rules. If the game ends up in a draw it gives the win to the most "active" player rather than the player with the most stocks and less damage.

[QUOTE=Rob3k;48565107]If the game ends up in a draw it gives the win to the most "active" player rather than the player with the most stocks and less damage.[/QUOTE]

I feel like this would completely screw over an early KO'ing damage sponge like ganondrof or bowser lol. What a stupid system. Nintendo will never stop being oblivious to the pre-existing smash competitive scene I guess.

thx 4 the info!
