Nintendo just announced a bunch of stuff they're doing for E3, and apparently one of them is an invitational tournament for Smash 4.

Watch Mew 2 King be invited and he takes the whole thing free.

That's a little ambiguous. The picture still looks like edge guarding, bu what do I know? It could even mean that edge guarding isn't 100% anymore, or you can attack from the ledge, or something. Anyway.

WHERE'S THE ICE CLIMBERS?

Belay was never this kind of tether recovery.

Edit:

[up] hmmm. Pre-launch tournament, or stealth play-testing?

Nice.

I remember Gamestop having a pre-release Brawl tourney, right before the game itself could be bought. I hope we get something like that for each version. grin

Although I expect they won't have them at any of the Best Buys anywhere near me, just like last year... =(

@Pulse: Maybe not, but I still think it'd be a really nice callback to when he did. Hardly a deal-breaker in any sense of the term, of course, but y'know.

I hope Olimar has a three hit combo for the standard attack button, which would reference Pikmin 2 when you acquire that punch upgrade.

Yeah, the problem last year was that the participating best buys were way too limited. Just print off a demo disc and send it to every store in the country. Not hard.

...Is that really an official Nintendo video? Wow.

Was hoping the meeting of Reggie and Mecha-Reggie would play out like a Godzilla film though.

Yeah. Trouble with that setup is you're still very limited in terms of who you can reach. iirc, there was no-one remotely near the Pittsburgh area, for instance. You could at least distribute discs for a "lesser" experience to all stores not selected for the top-tier experience.
