I'm glad they didn't use Returns' redesign for the rocketbarrels. It looks a lot more boring.

Oh my God, why did they give him fingernails. That's creeping me out. And now I'm thinking of that scene from Juno.

I"m not surprised to see him back, but I just can't help: I can't stand Diddy. I don't know, but for some reasons every of his actions annoy me. And something about his design looks wrong to me. I can't find him cute, nor cool, nor anything else.

I'm sorry if this is kind of an unecessary rant, but by god he's actually creeping me out. Maybe it's the nail, I don't know.

okay. so, as we can see here, banana peels still exist, Diddy presumably still has them as his down-B, and Fox is slipping on one.

So now we can definitely say that random tripping is gone. The only other meaning of that "vague" answer Sakurai gave is impossible.

I have a message from another time...

Not... too thrilled Diddy is in, but nothing I could ever do about it in the first place.

All that image tells us is that the banana peels are back. Does it necessarily mean that Diddy's Down-Special from Brawl is returning? Sure, it seems likely to be the case, but there could yet be a partner gimmick with Dixie that they're not showing yet... Well, a guy can hope.

I think we shouldn't read too into things.

But, then, look what thread I'm saying that in.

So that ship won't get put over? Not enough clearance?

Kinda funny that this just came out a week ago from someone who hadn't been active in over a year (and who I just found out about recently).

Are people going to ship them too?

Hmm...Some good ships with unconfirmed characters.

  • Lip and Pit. Their name sounds similar, one's a fairy and one's a angel (both similar things), and both are kids (or least look like it). Perfect.

  • Medusa and Peach. Their orientations are compatible, and they say opposites attract. And they're certainly opposites, in both personality and colour scheme.

  • Jill Dozer and Kumatora. Both are tomboyish and have pink hair, so...

  • Rosalina and Krystal. Umm...Both are tall and use magic?

Lip and Pit were both originally from Gunpei Yokoi games too.

Let's not start making assumptions about tripping. Personally, I was never annoyed by it.

It didn't bother me most of the either, really.

Once in a blue moon it hurt me, but often helped me too.

I'd rather just make it a toggable option in the main menu(like Language was) instead. That way people can have some challenge while playing Single Player. Albeit, yes, it's a small issue in that mode, namely the Multi-Man Brawl's. And once in a while the other ones. But eh, fun during multiplayer(save tournaments, sometimes).

Well, you're saying that because Diddy Kong is back and Banana Skins have been seen, that means that they're only present in his moveset and thus there is no random tripping. All because of a vague statement.

Tripping wouldn't be too bad an optional toggle thingy.

Oh really when?

#36546: Feb 21st 2014 at 8:00:23 AM

Yeah. I find it really funny sometimes, especially during matches.

It coming up when you never want it to is the problem. Maybe a small Options Menu that lets you toggle when it can happen, not counting item type(or moveset type in the case of Diddy Kong's and other possible ones if they come up, like Link's Sword Cutter [Down A]).

It wasn't really vague in context. It was pretty obvious it referred to random tripping because that was the only kind that was a big enough deal to ask about.

I never assumed forced tripping was going to be taken out in the first place. He said random tripping (the annoying kind) was gone.

[up][up][up][up][up]

What other possible conclusion is there to that "vague" statement? He answered yes to a question as to whether he removed tripping. There were two kids of tripping in Brawl; item-based and random. We can see the item-based tripping at work here. So unless Sakurai was lying or terribly mistranslated, I don't see any other conclusion
