That's pretty good. And it looks like quite a lot when they're laid out like that.

29 so far.

I can't wait to see what snapshots I can take in For. There has to be some way I can top what I did here.

I really like the way Dedede looks in that style. Very "king of the frozen north"-y. Link looks really dope in that fanart as well.

Though the Assist Trophy looks pretty neat.

That's why I said entertainment and not artistic. tongue

But agreed none the less.

The shadow in the AT jar kinda looks like Lucas, or at least the Dummied Out sprites of the Giygas!Claus looking boss fight in Mother 3...

That's probably incidental- I'm guessing Sakurai himself snuck a doodle in as the image in the AT, and Sakurai's style is very round.

I sure said that!

wild mass guess Smash 4 will use the default figure in an unbroken Assist Trophy as a secret unlockable fighter. He will be tiny and speedy and beat up everyone and his Final Smash will be turning into another random Assist Trophy

You're probably right Pulse, Kirby and EarthBound games always had similar art styles to me anyway.

This is only tangentially related to the subjects at hand, but I really like the way Pikachu's portrait looks in this game. I always giggle a bit when I rewatch the "fighters in review" segment at the end of the Direct. He's just looking straight into the camera, but it feels like "HI I'M PIKACHU HI HOW ARE YOU?!"

Sakurai and co. are trying to achieve Ambidextrous Sprite.

And it's nice to see some palette swaps, like Fire Mario and Dark Bowser.

This qualifies as a good thing.

I think we've seen Link and Samus don't do this, but Samus' pose is pretty neutral to facing left or right and Link's pose has a gameplay element to it in his shield.

I sure said that!

I mean that in the "Sakurai probably wouldn't go for it" sense, not the "it can't be done" sense.

We've already seen it doesn't apply to a few of the characters (Samus, Link, Marth)... all the ones that use weapons, it seems.

In some cases, I doubt it would be too hard to keep them forward-facing (namely, Dedede).

EDIT: It also doesn't apply to Yoshi, which is a bit odd to me. Oh well, it's nothing more than a neat minor detail in the first place.

Mac doesn't have it either. The hand with which a boxer punches is important you know.

Not a GameCube controller, but close enough...?

I don't play enough fighting games to say what the best controller for them is, so how many of y'all will be using this for Smash Bros.?

That looks more like a fight pad for a Street Fighter game or something rather than Smash Bros. The shield buttons being on the shoulder are actually very important for how Smash works.

Probably gonna stick to the Wii U Pro honestly.

...That looks perfect for Virtual Console fighters too.

And I actually like that the buttons are nicely shaped. I don't mind the Game Cube Controllers, but I also like other types. The N64 Controller was one of my favorites for letting you do tons of stuff. I liked the extra buttons too, as they provided you great options(especially for fighters). Also, I have an N64 Controller similarly shaped to that. It's got the buttons(A, B, C-Buttons) placed identical to the Controller you just linked, but the Control Stick and D-Pad were in a similar placement to the GCN's version. It's fairly comfortable and lets you easily hit all the buttons. The only issue is that the buttons have trouble clicking, being a 3rd party Controller and all. I kind of have to black tape the cord too for safety.

As for this picture, nice. I almost wish Link switched hands, just for the Twilight Princess Wii vs GCN jokes. tongue But seriously, works for me. Other than weapon users, it made little difference the direction you were facing in the first place.

I always use my gamecube controller whenever possible

Oh really when?
