A lot of middle school-esque posturing, basically.

I'm under the impression there's not very many, it's just that Smash is such a big fanbase that the bitchers and moaners seem to be very populous when the percentages are no higher than most others.

I sure said that!

Is the new stage called Gamer?

[up]Apparently so. It's based on a game from Game & Wario.

[up][up]The same could be said for most fanbases...

@Theremin: I'm the same way, actually. So that makes it automatically cool!

So according to that Gamexplain review, online multiplayer doesn't work too well with four players, huh?

I'm just saying.

Yes, the new stage is called Gamer, after the minigame of the same name from Game & Wario. The goal of the minigame was to beat mom's high score in a Warioware title without letting her see you playing or without falling asleep (hiding in order to pretend to sleep makes you tired).

That game also somewhat terrifying because whenever Mom would show up to check on you, the game would switch from the Warioware Microgame music to "Psycho" Strings. And she later starts breaking reality just to check on you, as seen in the second Miiverse post by Sakurai.

Anyways, this is basically Wario's stage for the Wii U, and frankly, I love it. It gets rid of the randomness of "Warioware Inc" while retaining the gimmick from that series.

Question: What's a 'tilt'? And what's a 'smash'?

[up]"Smash" is when you quickly tap the directional pad with an attack, resulting in a strong attack. "Tilt" is when you gently tilt the pad with an attack, resulting in a weaker, but usually faster strike.

You don't necessarily have to gently hold it. Holding it all the way works, too, you just can't move it there too quickly and press A at the same time without pulling off a smash instead.

Huh. Funny. He showed a Warioware stage before officially revealing Wario on the site.

So Wario has yet another wacky stage.

Typical Sakurai, hinting and making it incredibly obvious but not actually saying it.

[up] You have won this battle of attrition, my friend.

I'm surprised Sakurai had already revealed Master Core earlier than he did more hats and a Wario stage.

So there's a new Wario stage, noice.

Now let's hope for some new Yoshi, Kirby, and Donkey Kong stages.

I hope Mom/5-Volt spotting you isn't an instant KO. Otherwise we'll have another Wario stage with a neat concept but so-so execution.

I like the stage otherwise. That's some nice lighting and cel-shading.

Shame there's likely not going to be a Wario Land stage. They could use a Shake It stage in the Wii U version. I'm hoping they'll try to give at least two new stages to as many franchises as possible in the Wii U version, much like Melee did, to make up for the 3DS version's lackluster selection. That's probably too high of a desire, though.

Wait, you can't control item frequency anymore? Just a yes/no option?

I'd hope that's just for the 3DS version. Still no diea why they would do that in the first place, but here's hoping.

man, i just realised october 3rd is a friday.

thats...a bothersome day to be released. either amazon delivers their pre-orders on the day its released (not necessarily impossible but it seems fairly unlikely) or they wait till monday...sheesh.

I'm just going to get a Nintendo Prepaid Card (or go to Gamestop to look for a digital code) and download it on Friday. I considered getting it physically, but decided not to, especially since I doubt I'd find it available since I didn't preorder it.

Heh.

I always buy physical copies. Digital copies just feel strange to me.

Come to think of it, how big is this game in terms of filesize? The eShop didn't seem to have any info on it. I'm generally happier to have a physical copy, but this seems like the kind of game you want to always have handy.

I kinda want to get the physical copy but I didn't preorder it so...
