[QUOTE=Outro-intro;47462511]I wonder how a redone pichu would work without the self-hurting gimmick. He'd probably be a faster version of pikachu, but pikachu is already super fast so I wonder how they'd make it work if they re-included pichu.[/QUOTE] To be honest some sort of Pichu bros dynamic would probably work best, with two Pichus working in tandem.

[QUOTE=Rufia;47463049]To be honest some sort of Pichu bros dynamic would probably work best, with two Pichus working in tandem.[/QUOTE] So, Ice Climbers?

Clearly, what we need is Ukelele Pichu. [T]http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/thumb/a/a9/PichuPR3art.png/185px-PichuPR3art.png[/T]

Since Pikachu is already a fast, light, nimble character I'll have to agree with IliekBoxes and say Raichu would be way more interesting. [editline]5th April 2015[/editline] plus he could do cool stuff with that whip tail.

I've honestly always wanted Jigglypuff to become Wigglytuff

that being said I'd rather just not have a clone of a pre-existing pokemon.

To be honest I never even heard of Shovel Knight until people started suggesting him for smash stuff

[QUOTE=unlimi_Ted;47463359]To be honest I never even heard of Shovel Knight until people started suggesting him for smash stuff[/QUOTE] Your loss. Go download the game, it's excellent

[QUOTE=ElderLolz;47463420]Shovel Knight is pretty much [B]THE best 2D retro indie platformer[/B] in my honest opinion. If we can get any indie reps, him please.[/QUOTE] Cave Story [editline]5th April 2015[/editline] Like, I love Shovel Knight, but Cave Story is still definitive, I feel. SK is the most polished without a doubt, but CS just feels deeper.

Now now, lets not get into arguments as to whats the best platformer. Shantae, Cave Story, and Shovel Knight are all very good 2D indie platformers in their own rights (even if I never played Shovel Knight)!

[QUOTE=Everything;47463563]Cave Story [editline]5th April 2015[/editline] Like, I love Shovel Knight, but Cave Story is still definitive, I feel. SK is the most polished without a doubt, but CS just feels deeper.[/QUOTE] As far as third-parties go, I'm skeptical on whether a one-off character would be able to hold as much impact. While Shovel Knight and Cave Story are both great games in their own right, neither have a real legacy outside of their own singular game. Cave Story's reach within the industry goes as far as a handful of remakes and cameos, and Shovel Knight is fairly recent. Don't get me wrong, both have made fantastic experiences and as a result there are a lot of people looking at indies instead of just AAA and AA games. If any third-party representatives are going to be selected, it's far more likely for it to be among those who have made a significant splash in the industry. This is a character that's expected to stack up with the likes of Sonic, Megaman, and Pac-Man for third-party representation. As much as I adore Cave Story and Shovel Knight, I don't feel too confident in them being [i]as[/i] impactful as Sakurai & co are looking for if they're considering third-parties for the poll.

Hopefully that'll happen soon enough so they'll get an experience of it and maybe vote for it in the coming months.

It's been a while since I've actually laughed at a Miiverse post. [img]http://i.imgur.com/G0n1kIp.png[/img]

With the talk of a European smash 4 wii u tourney earlier in this thread I remembered how much fun participating in my last few were. I've had some experience participating in online tournies before, and I'd be all for an fp one. I whipped up a quick poll to gauge interest and if it gets enough votes I'd love to host one!

-snip beaten-

I really want to enjoy this game, but I'm tired of gimping characters 4+ times while they're offstage only for them to just barely grab the ledge and make it back onstage because the recoveries (except for maybe like 3 characters) are the best they've ever been in the series for no other reason than to make it easier for new players to play the game. I'm really sick of seeing the air dodge animations, spot dodge animations, and hearing that fucking perfect shield sound effect right before I land an attack because of the blatantly input-reading AI, and how frustratingly difficult it is to actually KO someone even if their percentage is ridiculously high. I thought I could deal with it, thinking "this is a different game from Melee/Project M, so obviously the mechanics would be different." But these mechanics aren't just different, they're bad, too. I honestly can't get used to having 90% of my attacks whiff because the computer decided "I am an AI made by Namco, of course I'm gonna be an input-reading AI!" Whatever happened to the AI in Melee that wasn't TAS-level godlike, but wasn't helmet-on-head stupid? What about those blastzones, y'know, you get hit and fly into them, you get KO'd? What happened to it in Sm4sh? Where it seems like the blastzones are several miles past the edge of the screen? I just hate how much this game rewards a defensive play style to the point that playing offensively in an average game will most likely cost you the match, how dodge moves are like 70% faster than every other move in the game, and THAT PERFECT SHIELD SOUND EFFECT BECAUSE CPUs ARE SO GOOD THEY PERFECT SHIELD LEMON PELLETS EVERY TIME

This poll thing is bringing the hype back that was lost for me when the game came out (through no fault of its own, but still) Thanks, Sakurai!

Nintendo needed DLCs way before Wii U. It's a good idea for Nintendo and fans alike.

[QUOTE=Zender Troop;47464228]Nintendo needed DLCs way before Wii U. It's a good idea for Nintendo and fans alike.[/QUOTE] I just hope they don't let it get to their heads and overprice things.

Currently on 4chan, their poll has Wonder Red vs Banjo and K Rool vs Paper Mario. Winners of those will go to finals. Unite up!

[QUOTE=Mr. Zombie;47464277]Currently on 4chan, their poll has Wonder Red vs Banjo and K Rool vs Paper Mario. Winners of those will go to finals.

Paper Mario would be fucking cool, so would Banjo and Kazooie That's a hard choice right there.

[QUOTE=Zadrave;47464307]Paper Mario would be fucking cool, so would Banjo and Kazooie That's a hard choice right there.[/QUOTE] Paper Mario could be like a semi Duck Hunt Dog character, having some/most of his attacks use his partners. That'd be awesome as [i]fuck[/i], but I got a feeling that won't happen

I find 8 pretty okay and 7 is fun too. 9 is just mk3 input reading bullshit.

cmon K. Rool The most likely out of all 4 and the most deserving. What happens with the winner? It it just for bragging rights or is 4chan gonna raid the smash ballot with votes for the winner?

I'm also hoping for alt skin dlc. Imagine if a Splatoon amiibo gives you a Mario Sunshine outfit for Mario.
