Super Smash Bros.

[Hong]

At last, a topic dedicated to the crossover-clash of legends! Here you can talk all four entries in the series. What characters do you play? What stages to you play on? Do you usually play alone, with a good friend, a larger group or are you a traveling warrior? What do you think of Smash Bros. 4 so far? What are you looking forward to? Which is your favourite entry to the series so far? All this and more can be discussed in this thread.

Bowser unslow?

Edit: Six empty spaces.

Game is faster overall. Less floaty, faster movements, while hitstun remains the same (effectively longer). But you know, Brawl was very different in its demo before the game came out, so we'll sit and watch

Thankfully, they have some competitive players testing the game along with everyone else. Will help ensure it appeals to a wider range of players compared to Brawl.

Edit - Added gameplay video.

Edit: Is eighteen a plausible number of characters?

Well, let us do some safely-assumed shoe-ins

1. Mario
2. Luigi
3. Peach
4. Bowser
5. Link
6. Zelda
7. Ganondorf
8. Pikachu
9. Marth
10. Samus
11. Wii Fit Trainer
12. Villager
13. Mega Man
14. Kirby
15. Yoshi
16. Pit

We can also assume at least one additional character from the Pokémon and Fire Emblem franchises, as well as at least one Mother-series character. If we veer from definitive territory into comfort, we can expect Douglas Jay mother fucking Falcon, at least a third Pokémon, and King Dedede. So at the very least I would expect us to reach the 20s and mostly likely the 30s. Will not say 40+ characters yet.

Edited formatting for better clarity in the future.

Also, the empty spaces differ on mobile browsers. It is just a design placeholder.

And then Kirby was a Thwomp.

Not sure what the plan is for the new dojo, but I would hope/assume it will have a similar program as the old after the ball gets rolling.

Anyone have any hopefuls? I think from Brawl I learned my lesson to not just ask for the characters I like and now I try to think things out a bit better. I would like Mewtwo to return with with his old, unique fighting style, even if it meant his new weird design. I would also love for a Fire Emblem character that doesn't use a sword, though something tells me that we will be getting Chrom as an Ike replacement. Nothing wrong with Chrom of course, just a shame the series has such a narrow representation.

If skins happen, I would totally dig a Lucina replacement for Marth and Protoman in place of Mega Man. With Nintendo doing the whole DLC thing, I wouldn't be surprised.

I'd actually like Ike to return. It'd be great; Marth will be the light FE rep, Chrome will be medium, and Ike will be heavy.
He's probably going to be axed though. Aside from him, I'd love it if we got Travis Touchdown and maybe even Sir Henry Motherfucker into the fray.

Mewtwo was floaty and weird. So yes, I'd like him back.

[zamisk]

I want Neku. Think of the Psychs. It'd be a blast. His final smash would have cameos and the renewed interest in the franchise would net us a sequel.

I'm not gonna lie, I'm interested because of Megaman.
