Super Smash Bros. 4 for the Wii U/3DS Announced!

I'll be getting the 3DS version.

I always main Samus, but I may also main Meta Knight this game. Side characters new and old will include Link, Lucina, Fox, and Kirby. Pit, Palutena, and Shulk may end up as mains or side characters depending if I do well with them or not.

I'm debating whether I should get the 3DS or Wii U version.

I don't have a Wii U yet, but I'm planning to get one anyways for Bayonetta 2 and Mario Kart 8, as well as Splatoon. The only thing is I'm not sure when I should get a Wii U, and if they're going to have any Smash Bros bundle for it I'll probably just get that.

That or I'll just get it on Black Friday

I'm going to main Lucina now just because of her alternate colors. Those Cordelia and Tiki colors are sexy. No Olivia color makes me sad thought. My poor waifu :(

Rest of the characters here:

Shulk also has some cools one that reference all of the Xenoblade party members. I know I'm using the Sharla one.

So did anyone here get codes from Club Nintendo?

If you did...please consider sharing with me. ;~; Despite getting Plat this year, I haven't gotten an email.

Just played the demo and hoo boy... (paragraph incoming geiz)


On the casual side, the game looks and runs pretty great. No complaints here about the character models or everything.

Soundtrack is pretty good too. While it was nice to hear the Melee version of Battlefield I kinda wanted a newer version of it too.

However, the biggest issue I have with this game is the controls. While they do take some getting used to, it also feels awkward as hell. I never had a problem with using the analog stick in previous games but I definitely don't like it here. Having the A button be normal attack and Y being jump also annoys me, I'm really hoping you can change movement and button options in the final version.

I can't really comment on characters because none of my mains are playable(Lucario/Sonic/Marth/Luigi) but I feel like Megaman's a bit of a gimmick/novelty character like he was in the first two Marvel vs Capcom games. That's not to say he's bad or anything but it'll definitely take some work to win with him,


Boss Galaga is easily my favorite item, I lost it when it grabbed Megaman and dragged him to the top of the screen.

Now for the competitive side of things:

There's no dash dancing, where you flick the stick back and forth, which sucks. Characters have multiple airdodges like in Brawl, the characters don't feel that floaty to me. Game speed definitely isn't like Melee, it's a bit faster than Brawl but not by much. Two characters can't be on the same ledge, the other one does get knocked off and they do have a chance to recover. And yes, tripping is gone.

The second biggest nitpick I have is..why the hell is there a Final Destination version of Battlefield? That stage doesn't have anything gimmicky about it like Corneria and Jungle Japes did and that annoys me too. There was no need for that to happen to the stage, it was perfectly fine the way it's always been. I know you don't have to pick it, but it just seems like Sakurai just made FD versions of stages just so tourneyfags would shut the hell up instead of, you know, asking more competitive players how that works.

I got an extra code if you still need it.

That would be awesome.

I got the demo and I'm surprised how awesome the Villager actually is to play as. I mean I've heard people say Villager is good but man they weren't kidding. I very much see myself using them a lot. Along with my usual main, Peach. But I want to start using Pit more. Also Yoshi. It took a while to get used to the controls though because I've really only ever used the gamecube controller.

I probably won't buy the 3DS version though and just wait for the Wii U one. I mean I COULD afford both but I'd rather use my money for a diff game instead of the same game twice.

Side note: My friend said that the music that played in the demo is the actual official theme and...I'm kinda sad because like it's not as good as Brawl's. They should have topped Brawl.

I was planning on waiting for the Wii U as well, but I just can't do it. Portable Smash has been a dream of mine since I was a little kid so I rather pay extra for the same game. Furthermore, even if it wasn't something I wanted, I would still buy it because the thought of knowing there's a new Smash out there to play is kinda hard to resist.

I actually found the controls to be pretty good. They're not as bad as people are saying. My only problem is that Grabbing is mapped to L, and that's a button I never used in the previous games, so I haven't used many of them so far. When the full game comes out, I'm switching grabs to either X or Y and I'll be perfect. Also, this made me realize that I don't need to buy any Gamecube controllers/adapter when the console version comes out. The Wii U Pro controller will be godly if I find the 3DS ones fine.

And since we're talking about music, Crunchii is currently uploading all of the tracks in the game:

Smash Bros. 4 playlist

My favorite one so far. It kinda made me tear up a bit :p

[color=#ff69b4]I have yet to get a code an it makes me a little sad =\

Damn, it you would have posted last night I would have given you one. I gave away my last one this morning :(

[color=#ff69b4]It's cool.

BUMPITY BUMP

Anyone getting it today/tomorrow?

First thing tomorrow before class. I'm tempted to download it right now, but I'll live for one more night.

Anyone who gets the game feel free to add me:

So been playing smash on 3DS and I have to say it's great. The controls take a little getting used to but after a few hours I got the hang of it. Getting used to using L to grab is gonna take a while though...

The internet seems to still be a little spotty, though it might just be my router (or the fact I was downloading a game on Steam). I played with a friend for about 30 minutes and it dropped me out of the game once.

My favorite character so far is between the Mii Brawler and Zero Suit Samus. Little Mac is pretty fun to play too, though his air attacks really are as bad as the trailer makes them out to be.

Just got the game right now, so gotta wait through the lengthy download process.

FC is in my signature if you want to add.

I'm so bad at the game. Free wins for anyone that fights me.

Robin is so much fun to use. Both his forward and back aerial are kill moves which is great because I don't get punished as much if I screw up with the direction.

Also, that awesome final smash when I play FFA with items.

No sign of my brother and I getting the game any time soon. ;-;

On another note though, Kapp'n's Song in the game got an amazing remix (should be called SKA-pp'n's Song these days.
