Why do people keep interpreting maxims as if they should apply 100% of the time?

That statement is pretty open to interpretation. That, and an opinion. I've enjoyed Quest 64, a rushed game, far more than Brawl, a delayed game. The only thing Brawl had was better graphics, for its time, I mean.

That said, sometimes it holds true, respectively.

EDIT: Apparently theses links are forbidden, so I added a space to each of them. You should still be able to copy/paste and correct them.

Just some pages of a magazine that apparently analyses the revealed characters/moves/stages etc. I trought I could share with you guys since I don't think you've seen it and it could be a nice way to wait. I'm about to read it, it looks fun. I hope the text isn't too small, I had to open them in a new tab specifically to be able.

Looks about the same as the Kotaku one some time back, just translated. Nothing new, just speculation and such.

[up]TinyURL or Bit.ly the links and they should work.

[up]Sonic Adventure disagrees with that. That game was rushed in less than a year in its original Japanese release, then refined over a few more years for its international release to acclaim
It's still a really buggy game, though.

Insert witty 'n clever quip here.

And still goddamn awesome in its own right. Only real problem was the voices/mouth movements for English. There's only one real game-breaking bug at best(I might've missed a few, but during the first stage, it tries to push you off the course during a loop-de-loop. I don't remember any really bad ones..., as the rest are just for fun and don't generally matter for regular gameplay. Also, buggy is not bad. That made it tons of fun and gave it even more replay value. Both versions.

Miyamoto's maxim about rushing doesn't apply if the development team just decides to fix the rushed game later on (Bethesda Softworks' MO).

There's a difference between delayed (Ocarina of Time) and stuck in development hell (Duke Nukem Forever, Aliens: Colonial Marines).

Yeah- Duke Nukem Forever was handed between several different studios and had to be mostly scrapped more than once.

So yeah, six months or even a year of delay is okay to wait for, but much longer and we start getting worried.tongue

I should also point out that while fixing a game post-release is more of an option now, delaying it to fix it pre-release is probably better.

A delayed game may be better than a rushed one, but at the same time they probably don't want Smash to be the last Wii U game. They kind of need it to come out this year if they want a shot at keeping whatever momentum Mario Kart 8 grants them.

Okay then. Final results for the newcomer poll:

1.) Palutena

2.) Chrom/Lucina/Robin

3.) Ridley

4.) Tie (Other/Pac-Man)

5.) Another Tie (Bayonetta/Wonder Red/no newcomer whatsoever)

Personally, I bet we'll see the FE:A rep during the Direct.

Hm, hype levels keep climbing. Climbing. Ice Climbers confirmed.

I'm going to guess one newcomer (delicious pale tuna) and one vet (the boy with the bat). Seriously, where is all the Mother stuff?

#39669: Apr 8th 2014 at 12:32:08 PM

I'm going to guess three character confirmations with at least one being a newcomer reveal. Given the villains taking over the eshop I have a feeling Ridley will be the newcomer. For veterans I'm going with some combination of Yoshi, Meta Knight, and Ness.

I would like to see some MOTHER stuff, yeah. It's one of the few Brawl franchises that still hasn't had anything revealed yet.
