Just 105 days before this game launches! Well, in North America that is... Europe and Australia will probably have to wait a few months.

http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/

Todays update: Links special moves! His boomerang has changed a bit: when it comes back, it "lightly pulls the foe's body". His Spin Attack can now be charged.
His grab move is once again a life-saver, this time it automatically aims at the closest ledge when you fall down.

Which made me wonder: how to do a grab move with just the Wiimote? A-button? Shaking? And if the game still uses shields (which I mostly just used for dashes), how will you use that with the Wiimote? You can't hold the A-button and dash to a side at the same time, so it can't be that button.

Something else that's nice to speculate about, is the special moves of the Pokémon Trainer.

You don't use the Wii-troller. You use a Gamecube controller or the Classic controller.

Not enough buttons on the simple Wii-troller ;)

Dylflon

08-20-2007, 05:45 AM

You can actually use the wii mote.

There are four different play styles.

I've been checking the daily updates for months now. I need this game to come out so my life can have meaning.

Yeah, I don't know about the controls with the Wiimote. I think I'll be using my Wavebirds instead.

I agree with you.
May give the others a chance but reason keeping thise Cube controllers around.

As for the PokeMon Trainer,
I think special moves will be simple
One switches in the PokeMon,
then 3 basic attack for each, assuming of course each will have a projectile

Angrist

What about Pokémon Trainers final smash? A combination of the 3 Pokémon? A legendary?

I will probably play with the Wiimote+nunchuck. It should have enough buttons and I can't be bothered to plug in the Cube controller and sit closer to the TV.

Donkey Kong’s pal has finally joined the battle! Unfortunately, screenshots fail to truly capture the way he moves.

He scrambles around the battle, using whimsical fighting moves while wielding both his Rocketbarrel Boost and Peanut Pop Gun!

Yoshi's Final Smash: Super Dragon

It’s tough to know what to call Yoshi – some call him a dragon, others a dinosaur. Some people don’t know WHAT he is.But whatever you call him, Yoshi’s true power will be seen here!

http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/images/yoshi/yoshi_070823a-l.jpg
He’s gotten the oft-mentioned Smash Ball!
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/images/yoshi/yoshi_070823b-l.jpg
W-wings!
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/images/yoshi/yoshi_070823c-l.jpg
He starts spewing out a jet of fire...
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/images/yoshi/yoshi_070823d-l.jpg
But you can also press the button to spit out fireballs!

It feels like, um...beauty and elegance...mixed with clumsiness. Certainly, no one’s ever seen Yoshi like this!
Being able to fly around is nice, as is giving undivided attention to his attacks. Yoshi can live as he likes, for a brief period of time.

http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/images/yoshi/yoshi_070823e-l.jpg
Oh, to think it’s already over...

So... at first I was thinking :wtf: Yoshi with white wings and spewing fire? That doesn't make sense... but then I remembered Super Mario World and I was happy. :)

Gliding

Characters like Pit, Meta Knight and the Pokémon Trainer’s Charizard are envied at first glance for their wings.

Rumor has it they can use those wings to sail through sky like gliders. But that can’t be true, can it?

http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/howto/technique/images/technique05/technique05_070830a-l.jpg
They... They’re really flying!

Magnificent!

From the perspective of the rules of Smash, I sense that mastering this skill could be quite beneficial. That is, IF you can master it...

http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/howto/technique/images/technique05/technique05_070830b-l.jpg
First, do a midair jump!

http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/howto/technique/images/technique05/technique05_070830c-l.jpg
If you continue holding the jump button, you’ll start gliding.

You don’t have to hold down the jump button, though. At the peak of your midair jump, you can also rapidly tilt the Control Stick backward to forward to link the jump to a glide.

http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/howto/technique/images/technique05/technique05_070830d-l.jpg
Tilt the stick down (or forward) to angle down.

http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/howto/technique/images/technique05/technique05_070830e-l.jpg
Tilt the stick up (or back) to aim high.

Since it’s glider-style flight, you fly based on how you’re angled. You can control both your angle and your speed by pitching your "nose" up or down.

http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/howto/technique/images/technique05/technique05_070830f-l.jpg
You can’t change direction, though, so be careful!

If you stall out in midair or get attacked, your flight will get cancelled.

But because this form of communication is greatly affected by the distance between you and your opponent, your brawls may not run smoothly if you’re really far apart—like, for instance, if you’re connecting between Japan and America.

The more distant you are, the worse your connection becomes, and the slower it feels. I apologize, but I hope you understand.

Unacceptable.

I believe thats one of the main reasons so many games suck, because they are rushed to the market. I applaud a company that isnt afraid to delay their games when the need arises.

Although I will admit, its a little annoying that this game was originally suppoused to be a Wii launch title...

But you can't just look at the first delay. A delay is frequently a sign of more delays to come. Was Smash Bros really delayed because of content/bugs or was it delayed so it could cover part of another delay?

Lucardio (PKMN), Ness and Jigglypuff will probably be playable characters, accidentally (maybe) revealed by a Nintendo promotion video. Link. (http://www.cubed3.com/news/9395/1/Three_More_Smash_Bros._Characters_Revealed?)

How are we going to handle SSBB spoilers on this forum? I don't want anyone to tell me all the secret characters.

I'm considering really turning down my (Nintendo) surfing habits. It will be hard and so weird to see and hear about this game for months, while I can't play it. This is probably the kind of game I want to play a lot, preferably with my brother. But waiting so long for it...

I just want to forget about it, concentrate on other stuff (including SMG which I just bought) and be surprised to learn that Europe has a release date and it's closer than expected. :)

Alright, just finished a lot of multiplayer.

First impressions? it's definitely evolutionary, not revolutionary. But the game is a lot of fun, and the new characters/moves are very well put together. Each of the characters feel very different from each other, and it'll take you a few minutes to really get a good feel for each one; despite this it remains very easy to pick it up and play vs other fighter games. There are quite a few retro stages, and I'm sure there's more I can unlock. In contrast to SSBM, there are no language settings so it was a bit hard to get through menus.

I tried out WiFi, which was very straightforward. We did have to try a few times before we got a connection to the Japanese servers (I imagine they're getting pounded), but once we were connected we had no issues. There was no discernible lag even with two parties in the US and our servers overseas. There's a little white stage with a punching bag to screw around with while your opponent selects their character and votes for which stage they want. We played free for all matches for the most part, my brother played with me on my Wii, my friend played with his roommate on his Wii, and fun was had by all.

If you have a question, feel free to ask.

I'm going to get some sleep, I've got work tomorrow morning.

*Edit*
And the Gamecube controller is definitely the all around favorite way to play the game.

TML, so you can play online FFA with multiple players per Wii? Some were afraid that you could only do team battles.
Do you have different online profiles for players? What I mean is: can my friends tell whether it's me or my brother playing online?

Wow, some of those characters got really shitty 'Final Smash' moves.

Samus, Ice Climbers, and Mario are among the few that got the real kick-ass 'takes-up-the-whole-screen' moves while folks like Kirby and Robot are left behind with stupid-ass moves.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And I can't end this post without giving another shout-out to the developers for their creative efforts. NOT.

• Lucas and Ness have the same final smash with a slight variation.

• Fox, Falco, and Star Wolf have the exact same final smash

• Zelda and Shiek have the same final smash (sure, they're essentially the same character, but you thought they could have changed it up a little, no?)

• Ike and Marth. Yep, you guessed it. Unsurprisingly similar sword moves

• Exactly 0% effort was put into giving Toon Link a unique final smash. Its exactly the same as 'Real' Link's move

However, I will give a few props for some of the more cool Final Smashes of:

Solid Snake, Captain Falcon, Ganondorf, and Game-and-Watch

02-05-2008, 11:56 PM

It's a 'super, hyper, omega' move that you can perform by obtaining the 'Final Smash' item. And I'm not certain whether it just randomly drops like other weapons or it floats around the stage and everyone has to attempt to 'grab' it if they want it.

Yay. It's fun. It took a few minutes getting used to, because it's much more crowded and busy than Melee. But the awesome new levels, characters, items all make up for that.

I'm using the Wiimote+nunchuck. Took some matches to get used to as well. And some tuning. :)

Ok so we beat the SSE. It was fun, although some levels were annoying.

But the boss. :eek: Argh, he's so frustrating! We had no problem playing the game on normal (and sometimes hard), but we had to beat the boss on easy.

Maybe it's because we almost didn't use any stickers for our characters?
About stickering, I have a question: when it says [weapon] +attack, does that mean weapons you pick up, or weapons you always carry? Or to put it in a different way: if I want to upgrade Ike his power, do I need a [arm] +attack, or a [weapon] +attack sticker??

We only need to unlock the 3rd Star Fox character. We'll find him in the end, please don't spoil how to unlock him.

You should use the stickers. It makes an unbelievably big difference.

And Angrist, I have no idea what "weapon" means, so I only used the stickers which I had no doubts about - arm, leg, launch resistance, fire and stuff. :D

Finally unlocked Wolf. :) I decided to just go through the SSE until I found him. So now we have about 7 levels left with secrets.

Wolf is much cooler than I had expected. I was pretty pissed that the last character to unlock was a 2nd clone of a character I don't really like. But he's so badass.

But it did get me thinking. Some characters play really well, but are pretty unknown. Others are famous, but suck. Weird situation...
