One thing I dislike about there being no transforming characters is that now we'll never get Masked Link in a future game.

I hope Sakurai doesn't use the splits to justify not giving us another Metroid or Zelda character. Both franchises could easily justify having another.

So when Ridley joins the battle Alfonzo is in charge of the stage hazard?

[up] Especially Metroid. Zelda already has five now.

Link, Toon Link, Zelda, Sheik, Ganondorf.

I'm actually watching that Nintendo Direct that everyone's talking about now.

It's really winning me back with that "For Fun/For Glory" thing. Not so much the concept itself. The concept is good, too, but. That screen just makes me laugh hysterically.

"FOR FUN!"

"FOR GLORY!"

I'm glad the online mode is being expanded. Hopefully online matches are playable, unlike in Brawl.

Guys can we please talk about Mega Man's amazing final smash? I mean, it's maybe 10 seconds long and it's the best thing to happen to mega man in half a decade.

Both times I went online in Brawl, I never encountered any connection issues. What I did encounter was some griefer playing as a hacked Giga Bowser.

I didn't go online again.

The varieties of Final Destination really warms my heart, too, no lie. That's very thoughtful.

... You know, for a moment I was disappointed at the start of the Assist Trophy segment because I saw the close-up of the item with this dark, shadowy figure inside a mass of colored light, and I was like, "oh wow, who's that, I like that design!"

I am pretty pleased with Midna bringing sexy back. Mother Brain looks awesome. Skull Kid is Seija and I'm okay with that! Isabelle is Isabelle AAAAAAAAA ISABELLE! AND PONG! Aww man. These are really neat.

... and then the video started bugging out for the Pokemon section.

Why, internet connection. Why.

Gonna download it from Youtube now. It's up on Nintendo's channel and they thoughtfully included an index with links to the times of various parts within. What I really like, though, is how they titled one of the chapters "Enjoyable Online Multiplayer".

The implications of explicitly stating how it's going to be enjoyable.

Just because there are no transforming characters in this game does not mean that is how it will be forever.

Guys, check out this gallery (I'm gonna assume nobody posted it yet). It's full of screenies showing stuff that wasn't even in the direct, including the Super Leaf and... Galaga? There's a Rally-X item in there too.

People who hacked the game to play as Giga Bowser or Wario Man, were either No skilled trolls or the complete opposite...since those are very rare, it didn't really ruin anything for me.

Okay, I laughed at the part where the trainer was stuck on top of the Dolphin, so that's what happens when he hits you too close? I can't tell you how many times I lost All Star Mode to that trick.

Whatever else I don't like about this game it does look to be about as fun as the three before it and I just might get the 3DS one anyway, in spite of what I said about Nintendo probably being better off getting as many WII U games out ASAP...then again maybe not. Maybe I need to put my money where my mouth is more often. (eh, where my typed words are more often)

[up]I think the gap in release will actually help with that since you'll have MONTHS of hype built for the Wii U players from the 3DS players.

So no picture today? Not that surprising given the incredible flood of info yesterday but still a bit disheartening.

I wonder if we'll get any character announcements before E3. It's still two months away so we might get one veteran confirmation but that's probably it.

#40497: Apr 9th 2014 at 7:20:59 AM

Ice Climbers, Meta Knight, Wario, and Ness/Lucas seem like the most obvious choices to reveal before E3.

Where in this video

did he troll about Palutena? Is it the "Who's that Trophy" with Tiki that came right after the Ridley tease?

Didn't have a chance last night, trying to isolate it.

The next Direct, from the look of things, won't be out until about E3 time. That'd be the perfect time to reveal a highly anticipated character like Palutena, Shulk, or dare I say Pac-Man. Or Lip.

[up]It's the one that takes advantage of Pseudo-Palutena looking like the real deal from behind.

[down]The Halberd is in, so I wouldn't worry about Meta Knight.

I'm actually a little worried Meta Knight won't get in. Sakurai is A LOT more in tune with the fanbase than I thought so if nothing else, meta Knight will have HEAVY restructuring.
