DISTANT SPARKS CALL TO A PAST STILL UNNAMED
GIVE ME MAIL OR GIVE ME DEATH!!
nobody cares about that dogshit intro, 64/melee/brawl are all iconic while 4 and ult are total duds.

The only way a Smash game is releasing in 2027 is if its a Deluxe version
>>738282103Its kinda weird realizing I give zero shits about the next smash bros.
>>738282230Holy fucking based pick, though i feel like Adol makes the most sense for a Falcom rep.(i want both in)
>>738282439Melee by a country mile.Holy shit, it was the most "Ohh you liked Smash Bros? Well here's as much as you want!"
>>738282439Melee is the coolest and only one that was unique, the rest are just clips from different sources, well except 64 but it's not that epic.
>no female villain yet (nig samus dont count)>reps a genre not yet repped>been around since the 80s and never really gone away>could have cool theif gadgets and gimmicks >has had games released in japan, including a game exclusive to japanIt's her fucking time.
>>738282475Ult DLC ended in 2021. That's more than enough dev time for a new game.
>>738282103probably going to rush it out the door since they desperately needs a console seller right now
>>738282439The reactions to the Melee one in 2001 were insane because of the graphical leap and characters they pickedThe only contender is Snake being revealed for brawl and that was behind closed doors so it wasnt even public for E3
>>738282103wasn't there a whole thing where he said he would never work on smash again? that he made the last game the best it could be because it was his send off?
>>738282103>Reportedly>RumoredWaw, cool, nothing
>>738282103Sorry, not happening.We're never getting another smash bros ever againWe're never getting another mainline mario ever againWe're never getting another multiplayer splatoon ever againWe're never getting another metroid ever againWe're never getting another star fox ever again
>>738283416Isn't there someone you forgot to ask?
>>738283938His hair/head is shaped like a dick tip
>>738282439Melee will always be the most memorable.
>>738282103>per Kiwi TalkzWho?
>>738282103rollback and wifi indicator
>>738284358>His hair/head is shaped like a dick tip
>>738282103>a guy said sowhoa...
>>738282439https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rSOLLpj7N2Mthe crowd says it all
>>738282103YAAASSSS I CLAP WHEN I SEE BRANDS I RECOGNIZE I CONSOOOM
>>738282103>New Smash Bros rumored>/v/ not filled with rosterfaggingNature is healing
Does he have to?
>>738282103add the DoomguyI don't really care about anything else because the game will be shit but I asked for him on the Smash ballot for kicks and it means I will have won somehow
>>738282103They are literally killing Sakurai, someone save him!
>>738282103>rumoredSo they needed more engagement and pulled this outta their asses?You can tell its bs because if a new smash game was being made, it would have started development 1 or 2 months after the last patch for ultimate lol
>>738282103He's such a hack. Wish they'd fire him.
What would your reaction to pic rel being in be?
>>738282439Melee's intro always felt more like a celebration of Nintendo's history rather than an a proper Smash intro, with all the callbacks to past games(recreating Super Metroid's intro, the scrolling OOT stills, etc.). It's like a more realized version of what 64 was trying to do. Imagine if, at Spaceworld, they disguised this intro as a B-roll for their presentation with any references to Smash Bros. removed(replace all the gameplay footage with footage of other games), only to have the announcer call out Melee's title at the end.
>>738291220It was always meant to be a graphical showcase for the Gamecube, Melee was the first Gamecube game revealed at E3 2001. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sfQ75gr2znA
>>738282853>pull another MK World>with fucking SmashNot if Nintendo wants to retain any brand loyalty outside of Pokecultists.
>>738290469Bad
>>738282103Surely Dante is gonna make it in this time, right? Surely Vergil is gonna be a dlc fighter if Dante makes it into the base game, right?
>>738282103It’s time to hope for Skull Kid again, bros. I think we have a real chance this time.
>>738282103why does this guy look like such a fag
>>738292534Because he is.
>next smash will have 8 frames of input lag before online is taken into accountyou still buying?
>>738282853Pokopia is the current seller, to the point where it's getting a bundle in June.
>>738290405How do you know it didn't?
Please no more intros sang by youtubers please
>>738282103>Make the "Ultimate game with literally everyone">Have to make anotherEven if this rumour ends up being real I feel like it will be a downgrade.
>>738292928Okay. It's not like you can't play Ultimate on Switch 2 if you really REALLY can't let go of Everyone is Here.
>>738282439Melee is a perfect video game.They actually paid an animation studio to have the studio help animate parts of their intro that's why it looks so different from the rest lol.
>Dante>Waluigi>Thrall>Riku>Master Chief>Team Rocket (Arbok, Weezing, Meowth)>Skull Kid>Sans (not just a mii skin, actual Sans)>Dragonborn>Liberty Prime (Giant Class fighter that have health like Master Hand, only have one life and attack in waves on the stage but can’t be knocked out)>Master Hand (Giant Class)>GlaDos/Wheatley (Giant Class)>Chel>Gordon FreemanThe whole lineup of Sony All-Stars in one big burst announcement to announce the first cross-platform Nintendo game, with Smash on Playstation/Xbox/PCSome character ideas
>>738290469I would love more Michael Jackson (I’ve wanted Captain EO as a summon for Kingdom Hearts for a while) but it would be unprecedented. Sakurai only adds characters that started out AS video game characters. If not I’d recommend Godzilla.
>>738282439Still chasing that melee high, it's the last one made with absolute love for Smash. Brawl and Tr4.5h have a passive-aggressive aura I can't shake. Even the openings reflect this for me
URBAN CHAMPIONURBAN CHAMPIONURBAN CHAMPION#URBANCHAMPIONSWEEP#ONLYURBANCHUMPSDONTWANTURBANCHAMPION
>>738293601Great ideas. You'll be getting 10 new Fire Emblem characters instead.
I don't give a fuck about rosterfaggotry. Don't fucking bother unless they make the game actually feel good to play. Every game since Brawl has been "Brawl but slightly less shitty."
>>738282439Im sorry but i like brawl moreBrawl wouldve been light years better than melee if sakurai didnt have a meltdown over wavedashing and added random trippingNot even saying that smash should cater exclusively to compfags but the most casual players genuinely dont care whether wavedashing exists or not, so what was the point?
>>738282751crazy that the entire DLC hype/release cycle was only 3 years. I guess they felt longer because of other stuff going on at the time.
>tfw no more leak discussion kino because of jeet AI generated fake leaks flooding the entire internetIts going to be so fucking gay and fake
>>738282103I didn't enjoy the last two very much
>>738282230
See you in 2027, bros.
>>738282103Wasn't this proven false and made up by this kiwi talkz faggot
>>738282230>>738282546Adol or Mail would be rad. Music from Ys, Brandish and Xanadu in Smash would make me cum.
>kiwi talkz>>738284741some faggot who made up leaks and got his ass burned from making up shit like how "Air Riders was a bargaining chip by Sakurai"
No one in this thread probably even remembers Japan Time.
>>738296853I do. I particularly remember one day, where I had to go to the doctor's office with my grandma due to being sick, I actually had my mom text me what that day's post was. It wasn't anything big like a character or stage, though. I think it was an item or brief mechanic related post.
>>738282475So a smash 5 to ultimates 4.5
>>738294353Yeahhh probably. Ah well, FE fans like them, why get mad franchises I don’t play get rep too?
>>738282103That song fucking sucks. Sounds like generic "What if (game song) had lyrics" garbage, much like Sonic Racing Crossworlds opening and main menu music.
At this point I don't even WANT Shadow the Hedgehog as much as I'm surprised he's not in yet.
>>738296853>>738297074You must recover!
>>738296853f-flab is poking out from his sides
>>738293448>rushed and buggy>85% of characters considered worthless by most fans>80% of stages considered 'illegal'>reliance on unintended physics exploits>perfectMelee is a high-skill fun game, but calling it 'perfect' is just peak autism.
>>738297438>reliance on unintended physics exploits??
>>738296853I do.
>>738285668>IT'S OK WHEN MY BELOVED SONY DOES IT, THO
>>738282853Pokopia is the console seller, and Splatoon in July.
>>738296853I do. I remember exactly where I was when I read the gooey bomb post.
I know I'm going to sound like a fag but I really want Geno from Super Mario RPG. I think he would play well.
>>738290214You don't deserve shit, you poser.
Actually, the thing I want the most out of this game is the classic mode from 64 and melee, with points based on what you do in the battle.
>>738296853Of course I do
>>738282103>kiwi talksThis motherfucker isn't reliable at all
>>738282103Nintendo has long ago used up all of their good will with me, I haven't bought anything from them since the 3DS/Wii U. If I had any sense, I would have never even got a Gamecube. They have always been anti-consumer.
>>738282475Not necessarily. Since Air Riders launched so early on the switch to I believe it's fair to say that most of the game probably was done for a while. I also doubt Sakurai was heavily involved throughout all of its development, especially once the main content was finished. It would be very easy to see a separate development team working on Smash. And let's not forget that smash ultimate was based heavily on the Wii U version of Smash 4.
>>738297838Have people looked into how much the the credits of air riders lines up with smash ultimate?
>>738297801Same I never even got a switch. Completely burned out
>>738293448>Melee is a perfect video gameOh, was less than 1/4 the roster being viable even in a casual setting and half the characters having unfinished moves on purpose? Take a shower.
>>738292649I have put well over 1000 hours into every smash game and gone to a number of locals, and I legitimately don't notice Ultimate's delay at all. Luckily, I love every Smash game and don't give a shit about tasteless retards who pick one to austism over while attacking the rest.
HAL has been working on the game behind closed doors the entire time, while Sakurai and Bamco were spending their energy on Air Riders. It would explain why a new mainline Kirby after Forgotten Land hasn't been on the table for 4 years.
>>738298562>I legitimately don't notice Ultimate's delay at all>
>>738282103That guy looks like a tranny
>>738296853I enjoyed the regular Gamefaqs topics. Even the bad posts were written tongue-in-cheek to at least get a light laugh
>>738297838The team for Air Riders didn't dissolve until December, Sakurai was pretty open about them still working on the game up to and past launch. And he would've been heavily involved like he is with every one of his games, it doesnt matter that it's Air Riders, because he was specifically requested by execs to plan and direct the game. If the execs tell him to make a toilet simulator, he will completely dedicate himself to making a toilet simulator. With that being said, he would've started planning his next game as Air Riders development winded down, but that's just the planning.>>738298017Moby Games has 241 people credited on both Ultimate and Air Riders. Of course some of those people are localization teams, execs, testers, voice actors etc. We know Sakurai had an unprecedented 5 month break between Ultimate's end and the start of active development for Air Riders just so a team could be put together for Air Riders. If it was "the Smash team," they'd have just gone straight to Air Riders after Ultimate.
>>738298676Sakurai has clearly had work done (i.e. woman behaivor)
Is there anything left to even rosterfag about? We got basically every single NEVEREVER character in Ultimate besides maybe Waluigi and Geno. They can't even surprise us with 3rd party picks anymore when Sora, who was considered impossible because of Disney lawyers, got in.
>>738298765And you're the one keeping track
>>738298810Nigga I just googled "young sakurai" and tons if pictures like this showed up. Everyone knows this
>>738293601>ThrallYeah, Thrall would be awesomeMy list:>Spyro>Soma>Alucard>Aiai>Bomberman>Scrooge McDuck>Donald Duck>Hewie, Louie and Dewey>Lankey Kong>Quote>Curley Brace>Sue>Balrog>Reimu>Cirno>Contra
>>738293601>>738299046Imagine thinking that any Blizzard character aside from like Genji has a snowball's chance.
Nintendo was okay working with Microsoft (Steve, Banjo) so it's highly likely we'll see Crash, Spyro, and/or a WoW character now that Microslop bought up Activision Blizzard.
>>738296346Brawl has many more problems than tripping and reduced movement tech. Characters are generally too floaty and base knockback of moves is too high, so combos are very rare and recovery is too easy. Almost all characters are fairly slow both grounded and in the air, making projectiles very strong generally, which isn't very fun. Character balance is considerably worse than melee. In melee, only 2 characters are actually awful, and only one good character is unfun to fight. In brawl, about a third of the cast may as well not exist, and 5 of its top 6 characters are fucking annoying in both competitive and casual play. Metaknight has a 90/10 matchup with like half the cast. Chain grab infinites are rampant. It also has a displeasing, washed out color pallete, and subspace emissary was stupid.Ultimate is not perfect but it's a huge step up from brawl.
>>738290405>So they needed more engagement and pulled this outta their asses?That's exactly what they did, this shit probably isn't coming out till 2028 for all we know
>>738299046I don't think they could get the LOTR license
Where do we stand on OoT Remake? Misinformation campaign?
>>738299239It's okay. Outside of the RUINED Ganon fight it's better looking than the original and has much better controls. The soundtrack remaster is generally good, unlike Majora's Mask 3D, and ESPECIALLY Star Fox 64 3D, what a shitshow.
>>738299396No not OoT3D. Unless you're making a joke in which case, kek.Supposedly there was a leak of a new one being made and then a week later some journo said Nintendo was spreading misinformation to catch leakers.
>>738299239It's likely real but any speculation as to 'when' is utter BS
>>738299046>JC Denton>Adam Jensen>Doomguy>Crash (Quake 3)>Liandri robot>Turner (Lugaru)>Reyk (Worlds)
I checked the nintendo news app and there was nothing about smash bros
>>738299449Oh. I'm out of the loop, apparently
>>738299123Hey, it's just a wishlist, not what I believe has a chance.>>7382992292/10
>>738299546>Crono>Frog>Justin>Feena>Sue>Sir Daniel Fortesque
>>738296853I miss just waking up each day with possibility of that literally anything could have been posted overnight.
>>738299593ITS PIKACHU
>>738298562>and I legitimately don't notice Ultimate's delay at allwhat are youa stone
>Indie shit has a non-0 chance>Any combination of Frisk, Sans or Kris is possible, if not likely because Toby is butt buddies with Sakuraigrim times ahead
>>738300876*bad times ahead
>>738298757Yes, but it is possible that another studio started work on Smash while Sakurai's focus was on Kirby. I think he could direct two games at the same time, easily. Nintendo had a also aquired new teams within Bandai, so they could have focused on getting smash going with Sakurai simply overseeing/co-directing.
>>738300876God I'm gonna be so pissed. I played undertale recently for the first time and I hated that shit
>>738282103I thought this guy retired after brawl wtf
>>738300876>>738302294Nah, didn't you see the recent interviews with some people. He doesn't even want official translations of his games into languages he doesn't speak himself. And then there was an interview from the... Gungeon? (don't recall) devs talking about how the crossover with Undertale is actually just cosplay because Toby is super autistic about his characters and won't let them do anything he considers "OOC."So frankly I think even Sakurai's own autist skill in rendering characters faithfully would fall short of Toby's ridiculous standards.
>>738292928having a giant roster is what made everything else in the game anemic, and the whole game basically had to revolve around the idea of "everyone is here" which made the novelty of it wear off fastit felt more like making gmod NPCs fight each other with some "THERE'S A SNAKE IN MY BOOT!" lines, rather than having actual characters in the gamehopefully a smaller roster will make it possible to bring back trophies and at least a somewhat decent adventure mode like melee's
>>738292008nindians have no standards lmfao
>>738299129>Nintendo was okay working with Microsoft (Steve, Banjo) so it's highly likely we'll see Crash, Spyro, and/or a WoW character now that Microslop bought up Activision Blizzard.Nintendo cares mainly about the Japanese audience so probably not. I wouldn't expect many new third parties in the base roster to begin with, it's much easier to license them in DLC. There are a lot of obvious choices like:Gooigi (Luigi's Mansion)Oachie (Pikmin)Octolings (Splatoon)Waluigi (Mario Party/Sports)Cranky Kong (DK)Dixie Kong (DK)Daisy (Not a clone)Ganondorf (Not a clone)Paper MarioDitto (Pokopia)Tom Nook (Animal Crossing)
I just want good online and fun modes, singleplayer content and I'll be happy. Sakurai never disappoints.
>>738303934sm4sh and especially WoL had none of those but i blame nintendo more than sakurai for it
Think the characters will also transfer to the new smash or are we losing some?
>>738283416Never believe a single word hackurai says
>>738282475Ultimate sold 35m copies, it's hit saturation point, and only the top guys play it anymore2027 isn't out of the question for a new title, also Nintendo won't want to wait too long into Switch 2's life to release it since Smash is a major hardware sellerI suspect Nintendo and Sakurai have had the game secretly cooking in some form for some time
>>738290469>leave my friend alone, MJ!
>>738282103who asked for this
>>738282103This is the source btw.
>>738302563He didn't retire, but he had a brief stint as an obese African American man
