I get the feeling Wooly World was supposed to out by now. We've known about it for a long time, and it's only coming out the 1st half of 2015. I know the aesthetic takes a lot of work, but most 2D platformers don't take this long I think. That and Yoshi got a game this year, so they may have delayed it to not have another NSMB 2 and U situation.

There's a Woolly World stage in that new Mario Golf game, so Woolly World was supposed to be out by now I'd guess.

[up][up] I wonder if that was originally intended as some sort of hint as to Mewtwo's appearance in the Direct...

His NDA obviously precluded him from commenting directly, but this kind of makes sense in hindsight as a veiled hint.

The new levels I've seen look good. There are a lot of travelling stages, but it doesn't seem like there's a lot of overly annoying stuff.

Jungle Hijinx looks like a hoot.

So I'm guessing the stage select screen we saw in the direct isn't complete, because the Pac-Man stage wasn't present in it.

So I guess there'll be some unlockable stages. I'm betting on new F-Zero, Game & Watch, and MOTHER stages, and probably one more Pokemon stage. It seems too big a series to only have one stage, and not even any returning ones.

Yeah. We actually saw couple of versions of the stage select, like one had Congo Jungle and another one and the other one didn't.

There is also Pokémon Stadium 2 which only appeared in one of the Event Mode icons.

I really REALLY hope that every franchise represented with a character gets at least one stage this time around, even if it ends up split between the two portions of the game. Make this the one to end that unfortunate trend of stageless characters, Sakurai!

I sure said that!

A new Pokemon stage is likely, but MOTHER will probably have Magicant carried over from the 3DS, seeing as the Flying Man trophy was present in the board game. I'd think the same of F-Zero - a new stage would be much less probable than a Mute City port.

Also, although it's not terribly likely, I'd love a bloom-laden 'Pirate Ship 2' remaster to be one of the Zelda stages. It's not impossible, but I find it hard to believe there will only be one new Zelda stage, especially since the 3DS game had two even with its meagre selection.

Still no Pokemon Coliseum...maybe they share it with Fire Emblem. tongue

I was hoping for Flat Zone 3 and something new for F-zero.

New Zelda stage seems possible, but it already has two returning stages as well.

Listening to the 3DS's soundtrack. I'm sort of disappointed that Smash Bros. apparently can't handle Id (Purpose). They cut out about half of the song, including most of the buildup to the climax. :/

In the same game where they already mended that silliness with Live & Learn, even.

[up][up]Cut for time and not space, most likely. Considering how long most matches are, it sort of makes sense. Though the full version would have been useful for Smash Run, especially since the 5-minute Uprising flight themes work perfectly on it.

Zelda's already got Skyloft, which looks pretty good to me.

But there's plenty of sources for good Zelda stages.

I really, REALLY hope we get a Ganon's Castle/Tower or Bowser's Castle stage, too, come to think of it. Sakurai's always preferred beginnings to climaxes for stage sources, but all the same.

I sure said that!

So, I gave Lucario a whirl on Hard Mode All-Star Mode

Silly shit like skipping items to enter a level at 100% health and reaching 200% without dying occured.

Also one hit kills on smash hit. from 0%.

Sometimes I just love Aura. It's every light characters worst nightmare.

[up][up][up][up]Yeah, that confuses me. Id (Purpose) gets trimmed from a little over 4 minutes down to about 2, while the 5-minute Kid Icarus themes stay unabridged?

I'd imagine Id being tied to a stage has a lot to do with that decision.

Also, in regards to the hypothetical second new Wii U Zelda stage, I think the decision to give the series two new 3DS stages has more weight than it initially seems. Donkey Kong, Starfox, Yoshi and Metroid got no new stages in that version at all; breaking the precedent set in every game prior. That suggests the focus on Zelda will be a constant, and seeing as all four of the omitted 3DS series are getting new Wii U stages, expecting a second from Zelda really isn't that farfetched.

I'm gonna use Zelda on the side, just because of that Jojo Down-B. It's a Spirit Tracks shout out, yeah, but look at it.

Who wants to fight? I'm sorry if I'm asking too much, but I never get good internet, so I'm not wasting this opportunity.

@stevebat: Aura's pretty damn overkill for All Star, considering All Star Mode is a scrub-fest.

[up][up]Could just be that those series' aren't really known much for being handheld games. Donkey Kong has never really had much besides remakes, Yoshi's recent handheld games are considered rather mediocre and lack locations to draw from anyway, Star Fox has only had a remake and Command, and Metroid hasn't had a handheld game since Hunters.

Then again, Earthbound got a stage despite being a console game, rather than MOTHER 3.

Wait, there's a climax? I only know the song from Smash 3DS, as the song that has the climax in the first few seconds and then a lot of build-up to when it starts again... *goes listen to the full version*

... ahhhh, I get what you mean about the build-up, that part sounds really sweet. ... It doesn't get so CLIMAX-y in the Smash version, either, does it?

They cut out part of Id ~ Purpose? *listens to the song*

Yeah, the Smash Bros version loops after two minutes. The FEA version loops after four minutes.

They literally cut out half the song.
