You know, I always imagined of a separate competitive mode for online play, but I'd never dreamed of it actually happening.

You think they might include the option to change the air dodge mechanics to resemble either Melee or Brawl? I'd like that. Really like that.

it's a pipe dream isn't it

@Anom: you're basically going to have to sit in a cave with your fingers in your ears, then. Sorry, but it's apparent that at least for playable characters, they're going to reveal most before the game comes out. I think they did that for Brawl, too. Most fighters seem to be getting that treatment now, IIRC.

Night Slash also has a cooler name, not to mention here it has Greninja slasjing someone multiple times while the moon is out.

Speaking of slashes, did anyone else notice Greninja's water katanas?waiiAnd also speaking of slashes, who do you think Greninja will be sh

I'd rather they retain Brawl's directionless, repeatable air dodging but increase the cooldown period between dodges to discourage spamming it.

[up][up]Actually, the only secret characters revealed before Brawl's release were Snake and Sonic. Well, the opening sequence also showed Ness and Marth once the game was out anyway, and they accidentally leaked Lucario in one video, but other than that there were no pre-release spoilers.

I meant have a choice to do either. From what I've seen on the internet that issue is straight-up split down the middle. Kinda hard to compromise it.

Spamming it only made players vulnerable...more often than not.

[up][up]That'd just be giving further excuses to divide the fanbase further. Better to just stick to one mode and keep it like that.

To be entirely honest, the entire roster will almost certainly be leaked within 24 hours of release.

In Japan.

Meaning it is physically impossible for someone to avoid the spoilers on that.

Only if the game comes out in Japan first. I was under the impression they were doing a simultaneous release this time.

Avoiding spoilers for a few days is actually possible, especially if you have the game itself to distract you. It's months, like with the gap between Brawl's releases, that are impossible.

I'm not sure why it matters to you which version you get first. You mentioned wanting to play with your family but I'm not sure how spoilers tie into that and why you can't just get the 3DS version and play with your family later.

[up][up]But that's just a gameplay mode, with the core of the game unchanged. This is a gameplay mechanic we're talking about here.

Because then some of my hype will have died down since I just played a new Smash Bros. game. That part is a more subjective matter so I don't expect you to understand.

To recycle my analogy, consider it like going to a restaurant and filling up on bread before the main course arrives. You're less hungry for the best part of the meal.

I'll be honest here Annon: I undestand that you're dissapointed about this, I really am, but you've spend far too many pages talking about it. It's starting to get irritating.

I spent one and a half pages discussing it, and much of that was in response to other people addressing/debating it with me. Chariot just dragged it up again long after I stopped. I can simply ignore him, though, if you'd prefer.

It's quite clear that it's not going to be possible to get exactly what you want, so it seems to me you just have to make a decision on what you'd rather do.

He's been complaining since the direct. I don't see why you guys didn't get irritated earlier.

That doesn't make any sense though. Yeah the rosters are the same but the experience would be different since that's the entire point of having two versions this time around.

Releasing the 3DS version before the Wii U version was the wrong move, I think. People won't want to buy a Wii U for that version of Smash. They should've done a simultaneous release... worst of all, I can see the Wii U version having problems because it's being rushed for a Christmas release.

Yes, I do need to make a final decision at some point, but now isn't the time of course.

I should clarify that as conflicted as the release dates make me feel, I loved everything else about this direct (Well, except the Ridley deconfirmation, but I didn't honestly expect him anyway).

[up][up]See, you're complaining about my complaining, but you're the one feeding it and asking me to elaborate and continue. So you have nobody to blame but yourself for your irritation with me. As such, I'm not going to explain anything.

Night Slash tends to be the best pysical Dark move for those who don't use Sucker Punch or Knock-Off.
