[up][up][up]The official title is Super Smash Bros. For Wii U and Super Smash Bros. For 3DS after all. And no, it's not just a way to let us know which version is for which, it's in the actual title.

Signatures are for lamers.

I haven't seen it ever officially addressed as just "Super Smash Bros. For". It's really more of a simple abbreviation that fans clung onto.

To be fair, there's still plenty of time for Nintendo to change their mind and apply for a new trademark for a name (or, if you think they're being sneaky, to suddenly reveal that they're naming it something else and apply for the trademark then).

Alternately, they could just abandon the naming convention of naming the Multi-Mook Melee after the the title. Alternately from that alternative, they could just call it the Multi-Man Smash and name it after the whole franchise.

[up][up][up]I know what the official title is and demonfly basically said what I was going to say. And I wasn't saying people were using "For" to figure which version is which, I was saying they were using it to refer to the fourth installment (both versions) specifically.

All I was asking was if there's official use for the term; I don't have a problem with the usage in any way.

[down]As I said, I know that.

Officially, the game is being called Super Smash Bros. For Wii U and Super Smash Bros. For 3DS in promotional material, in that order.

[up] I am okay with this.

I really liked the Primids, though. I would rather see them back, as they all had variants via items instead of just regular clones. Since they're all weak designs with few moves, they'd work best. Especially if they don't return in Adventure Mode. I haven't liked any generic enemy besides them since the Fighting Polygon Team. Wire Frames were nice, but there were only two. Alloys were very meh as is. But then I saw the Primids, and they felt more than unique enough.

They could always bring the Primids back as Chest Monsters like how the Goombas and Redeads would randomly pop out of item boxes at times. Or make them a stage hazard on Smash-related stages.

Hm, what are the chances of there being a Subspace Emissary-related stage? It'd be neat if there was one (and I'd rather they not completely throwaway that universe after one game).

Pretty good, considering the OG stages of every game thus far (namely Battlefield and Final Destination). Who's to say we can't have a third?

That already applies to a considerably large fraction of Smash's stages as it is.

I wonder if the boxing ring is a third OG stage rather than a Punch-Out!! stage.

I'd rather it wasn't a generic stage (as my support of Little Mac will attest), but we'll see.

Little Mac could get in even if it was a generic stage. They can make something that's very clearly his stage, instead of being a vague boxing ring.

My reaction would be meh.

(I don't really care much about the Metroid series. Good for it and its fans if he gets in, but eh.)

Personally, I hope that he's purposely left out of the game just to troll the fans evil grin

Last night, I added Melee's C-stick issue to the main Scrappy Mechanic page. I felt it was an addition that was long overdue, since players seem to be universally annoyed by it.

You know how you can use the C-stick to perform smashes and aerials? Not in Melee's single-player, where it instead zooms the camera in on you. Everybody hates that.

From the page:

In this series, mashing the C-stick is a very useful way to easily perform smash or aerial attacks. Except for Melee's single-player modes, where the C-stick zooms the camera in or out. Since the default camera placement already gives you the best view of everything, this feature serves no purpose but to restrict your view and to make many techniques much harder.

It's basically the fact that instant Smashes are removed in single-player modes and it just moves the camera, which is annoying and causes some Damn You, Muscle Memory! moments if you relied on it in matches. I never understood why they did that, to be honest.
