What went wrong?

>>266640632
it's not for the wii u

>>266640632
Sakurai directed it.

I don't browse /v/ or read gaming sites. Is this game good? if so, "gaming journalism" good or good good?

>>266640632
You.

>>266641014
Good good. Only people saying it's "bad" are Ridleyfags and PMfags.

Really, the only major issue I have with the game is that people don't die fast enough. It's not just me being a Meleefag either, I never really got into Smash outside of a With-Friends level.

It's just silly to have to waste a minute knocking some high-percentage dude waaaay off the screen multiple times and have him slowly float back over. Kills the pace of the game, especially with 2-on-2.

Besides that, it's fucking great. Best Smash yet, IMO.

>>266640912
The problem with that being?

3ds

>>266641160
even pmfags are saying it's good

>>266640632
Too many characters, and such a little amount of unlock-able stages.

>>266640632
so far its good, my only worry is that I have to limit myself when I play it, I feel like I might break the 3DS from the intensity of the battles sometimes.

so I kinda miss alot of smash attacks because I try not to move the circle pad too fast

>>266640632

Nothing. The game is great.

>>266641014
Depends on who you are.

If you're engrossed in the Smash community, chances are you will hate it explicitly and only because it's not Melee.
If you're not a fan of the old Smash games, this is just more of the same, so you should probably pass.
If you're anyone else, it's great.

>>266641208
I agree with this as a fellow friendfag

no edgehogging is lame too

>>266641208

Well at least I'm not the only one who thinks that way with the damage sponge shit in this game.

The ergonomics and analog of the 3DS is horrible for something like Smash.

Smash Run having no online and no player interaction on the collecting map

Lack of Ridley, Wolf, and Mewtwo

Ice Climbers being cut from the Wii U version because of the dumb same roster rule

Dark Pit being his own slot when they should have spent that time differentiating Lucina more or making a clone that isn't a palette swap

The system it was made for.

>>266641793
>Ice Climbers being cut from the Wii U version because of the dumb same roster rule

If this rule wasn't enforced, people would be bitching that you'd have to buy both versions of the game to play all the characters.

>>266641348
>Too many characters

Never play this franchise again.

It's way too hard to kill people.

The controls work, but at the same time it can be awkward on the 3DS.

Smash run is disappointing, as is the inability to use custom moves online.

Nothing. Git gud.

>>266640632
For Fun online mode lags like a sack of dicks

Also, if /v/ isn't fighting for Team Mario right now you're all huge faggots

>>266640632
Project M devs didn't head the development.

>>266642197
>actually wanting the no fun allowed fags anywhere near real Smash development
Off yourself.

It's breaking everyone's Circle pad forcing everybody to buy the new 3ds.

>>266640632
Dorf went wrong.

>>266641160
I'm an itemfag and I hate this

>no frequency option
>only one pokemon/at at a time

This is so fucking gay

>>266640632
netcode

I was about to purchase this shit too but everybody seems to be having problems with it

Smash without a Gamecube controller just feels wrong.

The 3DS gamepad just feels like shit.

Also what >>266641208 said.

No CPP support
Circle pad feels weird playing on
HP sponges
Feels like Brawl 2 to me

>>266642383
But PM is more fun than for3DS

>>266640632
Well let's see.

I mean minus the 3DS version fucking the Wii U one over we have:

>Low poly models that look terrible
>Smash run gets super repetitive super fast
>the fucking controls, what the fuck, my god damn thumb.

Mechanically, it's much too floaty and it still has awkward netcode.

My biggest issue though, is NO DAMN CONTENT mixed with it just feeling "like another Smash"

I can't describe it, it's like me playing Brawl again back in 2006, and it doesn't feel any different except Brawl had some exciting aspects to it, like the subspace story.

I dunno, I hope the Wii U version can redeem what the game could be, but my expectation are low. I am selling off my 3DS version likely soon before it loses too much value however.

>>266641014
Feels like Brawl at first, but the characters they've added really break the mold for Smash Bros characters.

>Little Mac
>Duck Hunt
>Rosalina
>Shulk
>Villager

All the above are characters that aren't quite like any that have ever been in Smash.

>>266642698
True, as much as I hate Shulk he's definitely different

>>266642698
Don't forget Mega-Man.

That nigga doesn't even have a basic fucking jab.

>>266641208
Holy shit THIS.
I thought it was just me.

>>266642162

Could you explain Conquest mode for me? How do I participate? Just win matches as Mario or Megaman?

>>266642693
Yea they really did nothing to break the mold

In fact there is less shit to do compared to it's predecessor

Did they even play test this garbage?

>>266641214
Both have massive clones.

so while I've loved every smash brothers and will certainly enjoy this one, am I the only one that actually liked the floatiness in brawl? sure it was less competitive but I never treated the game competitively. It was always a party game about trading blows and just in general not being serious.

>>266641208

Anon hits the nail on the head, however the floatiness sometimes makes for some great Air smashes, which are so much more satisfying.

>>266641208
With recoveries being as strong as they are, people need to be willing to take more chances to chase someone off the edge to secure the kill

Taking forever to knock someone past the blast zone sucks, but you can fix it a little bit by chasing them down and forcing them to adjust their recovery. I've seen it work wonders on characters like Bowser

>>266640632
Does the AI abuse the counter attacks, or do I need to git gud?

>>266643018
Just go online for fun or glory and kill people with Mario (not Mega Man) and you've contributed. You get gold pieces for your Mii if Team Mario wins.

the fact that the game was developed to revolve around the 3dshit limitatoins is an insane red flag. the wii u version is essentially a fucking port. and all these retarded are eating the 3dshit shit up

>>266643307
Oh neat

Why aren't we fighting for Team Megaman?

>>266642013
But you can with friends

>>266641937
And I also have to buy both versions to play all the stages and who knows whatever other exclusive content the Wii U version has. It's retarded to cut a functioning unique character on the Wii U just so the version with less content anyway can have the same roster.

>>266640632
You forgot to pick up the game.

>>266643439
Because he's losing anyway and I want gold stuff for my Mii characters. Mega Man is losing in every region of the world for some reason, so might as well stick with the winning team

>>266643439
I was wondering this too. Online people are playing mario a lot more probably because
it's easier to get kills as mario (a character most people already know how to play) than to try to get good with megaman.

>>266643349
Here's my thing: People say Ice Climbers got cut because of hardware limitations, but isn't Rosalina and Luma pretty much just that?

>>266643701
Sakurai himself said it was because of hardware

>>266643701
No. Nana was her own AI. Luma is more like a larger Pikmin you can control.

>>266643701
nope

>>266643769
That gives zero insight as to what I just said. Well, Sakurai said it, but R&L work pretty damn similarly so...what the hell?

>>266643701
The belief is that Luma's braindead AI is less complicated than Nana, which was basically an extra level 3 AI

Luma rarely acts on its own, and when it does it just slightly positions itself in front of an opponent. I assume multiple Nanas were too much for the 3ds to handle

y'know, do something exciting, instead of standing like a baby on the side of the screen as you watch villager fly back onto the stage over and over?

>>266641214
Melee was dev'd by HAL and Sakurai did not have nearly as much control as he does now.

>>266643942
It doesn't outright say it in the instructions (hit the Y button on the title screen and it'll tell you about it) but it's a pretty good surety that the losing side won't get anything.

The ice climber was AI controlled

Being on 3DS. Still playing and loving it like crazy though.

>>266643904
yeah if you watch the japanese tournaments thus far you notice the way to get kills at low percentages is to spike off the edge or just chase people out of bounds with projectiles or aerials. I also think a c-stick and gc controller will make things faster.

Yes you can.

Even though the actual fighting is better, it just feels like it doesn't have nearly as much content as Brawl. It's probably due to hardware limitations, but I'm still sad we're missing so much stuff.

No momentun in jumps is the only flaw I can discern.

The dark pit butthurt is really getting out of hand, the entire game doesn't suffer because it has a character you don't like. Also you are seriously ignoring all these creative newcomers and focusing on what? The 3 clones this game has? Out of the 50 characters we get you're focusing on some negligible ass clones? I do agree with the mechanics though, easy as fuck revory, little to no punishment, and no momentum-based movement (every platformer has this, any other game and it would be a failure).

i didn't say that, but they will try to keep the games as similar as possible. there will be tons of damage control if the 3dshit players get a game that looks like absolute shit compared to the wiiu

we were promised every character that we could ever want to play as.

Alph is an alt for Olimar
Bowser Jr has 7 alts

Both of these situations make the announcer say different names, and changes the characters geometry and voices.

Dark Pit looks IDENTICAL to Pit and has all the same moves and animations, yet is his own character.

There is literally no reason for it. I can ALMOST forgive Dr. Mario since he has some different moves and Lucina since she looks quite different than Marth (inb4 hurr she's supposed to be dressed as him), but Dark Pit is just Pit with different coloured wings. He even has a regular Pit colour scheme!!!

All 3 of them should have just been alt costumes. But Dark Pit is the worst offender since not only are his moves 1:1 Pits, but visually he is as well.

As much as Ken and Akuma are clones of Ryu.

It's Brawl 2.0 and will die within a month or two.

Tiny screen. Too hard to play on a small handheld. My thumbs are fucked after about 10 hours of play already. Decently fun game, but the Nintendrones ruin it.

>>266647023

>>266643701

Well Luma is a low poly character with less bones too. Popo was a fully detailed character with articulate human animations, much more bones. I'm betting it was more that than the AI.

>>266647125
Falco and Ganondorf have the same moves as Fox and Falcon. They may play differently, but they're still the same moves.

>>One of the most overpowered characters in game

>>266646243
You need Kid Icarus: Uprising too. It's the prequel to Smash 3DS. Fantastic game, a little on the pricey side now though.

>>266647321
Maybe they would like to keep their circle pads in tact.

>>266647321
The tournament was planned ages ago, before we knew the release date for smash 4.

>>266646064

>>266647321

>>266642693

>>266647652
I would have liked a Versus Smash Run mode, where you fight with other players on the giant map.

And an Endless Smash Run, where you play until you die, with no recovery items.

>>266647506
The key point is "churning out a ton of similar characters." What he meant was the roster wasn't going to filled with easy clones instead of putting the effort into most newcomers to make them fun and unique, which is not untrue.

This is the same article where he talks about Lucina anyway, so it's kind of silly to imply that he meant "no clones" when's he's introducing one right there.

>>266648024

I've only played Kid Icarus on the 3ds for about an hour before getting bored. But even I have heard of how fucking awesome Hades was, maybe I will give it another try just for him.

No idea where 4 Wii U is going. I hope they actually fix the horrendous roster cuts and low quality models, not saying anything about the amount of Pokemon/assist trophies/item frequency/coin mode/a proper way to unlock customs.

4 3DS was disappointing because it can't live up to Melee and Brawl. I mean, it's cool that I can now play it with my bros instead of listening to the droning "professor" in my mandatory diversity classes, but shit, I could just play Lie to me.

>>266648828
Still had Ice Climbers/Wolf/Lucas/Snake/Squirtle/Ivysaur

Oh yeah, not to mention it still had break the target, EVENT FUCKING MODE HOLY SHIT, Coin Mode, ITEM FREQUENCIES, way better stages, way more stages, STAGE CREATOR, modding capabilities...

Pretty much the only thing 4 3DS does better is balancing. The roster is arguable, considering 4 cut a lot of good characters and put in a lot of bad characters, on top of adding less new characters total.

Nothing really, it's pretty solid.

But what the fuck is the point of Marth? He's Lucina with a fancy tip.

Fucking hell, all those challenges that are basically "do X with all characters" and I gotta do them with the original and the clone that plays basically the same with trivial differences.

I'm enjoying this iteration far more than Melee and Brawl, but I can nitpick a little:
>Dark Pit

>Smash Run was hyped to hell but failed to follow up on the hype, feels like a chore, has no Online mode for any enjoyment

Many of the problems I have with the game so far are just arbitrary bullshit that can hopefully be fixed in the Wii U version, so really, there isn't much to complain about. Best game I've played so far in the series, can't wait for the Wii U version to drop.
If Dark Pit ever ends up on the Smash 5 roster, I'm going to have an aneurysm. Short Link 3 games in a row is bad enough.

Kind of disappointed they didn't gave Mega Man a shota voice.

>>266649156
They could, at the very least, add Ice Climbers back in and make it DLC for the 3DS version. There's no good reason why they shouldn't be in, other than sheer laziness and time constraints.

>They could, at the very least, add Ice Climbers back in and make it DLC for the 3DS version. There's no good reason why they shouldn't be in, other than sheer laziness and time constraints.

The 3DS can't handle eight Ice Climbers running at once. The only way they be DLC for the 3DS version if it was N3DS exclusive (and that's even assuming the N3DS is strong enough for that).

>>266649481

This is gotta be bait. You have to have played Melee, Brawl, or even went to /v/ before release before even playing this.
But real talk, I would be fine if they ended up cutting Marth for Lucina, she pretty much does everything Marth does but better, and holy shit, those alternate colors make me want to cum. THAT'S how you do palette swaps, take notes Capcom.

Seriously, who designed this? Primary modes in sub-menus of sub-menus? Dissimilar modes lumped together in unfitting categories? Who thought this was a good idea? The touch screen could have made for a perfect menu, but they really fucked it up.

They took what sounded like a legitimately awesome idea and brought it up short in every category. No online? You can't run into other players in the maze? No customization? 90% of the time the final battle is just a 1-minute smash? This is the kind of obvious shit that should have been in from the start, could still easily be patched in, but you just know they won't bother.

It feels way easier to finish someone in smash 3DS than in brawl, to me.

You can get equipment and trophies just by playing regular smash matches, you don't have to grind for them. Also there are more trophies than Brawl.

Anyone know the exact differences between Dark Pit and Pit? All I see is that Dark Pit jumps higher.

That's really not too bad. Dark Pit doesn't make sense, but it could certainly be worse.

By "less trophies", I meant that grinding for trophies was less of a task than equipment and Mii costumes thanks to Trophy Rush and the store.
The nerfed info aside, they did a pretty damn good job on the trophies in this game.

It makes sense alright, but personally, I feel seeing Sonic and Megaman beating up a bunch of Nintendo 1st Parties kind of undermines what Smash is going for when both saw success on other consoles.
Dream Scenario: Capcom goes bankrupt and Nintendo buys them, Megaman becomes a Smash mainstay, Arthur, Viewtiful Joe, Nemesis, and a shitload of other Capcom characters see the light of day in vidya again. No Ryu allowed.

>>266650884
Not the fireball and up special you retard. He's still a clone.

Why is Doc so fucking pissed off?

>>266640632
There's literally no playable multiplayer options. That's gotta be a first for a fighting game.

>>266646384
Wait, seriously? You can't even customize the online matches? That's fucking embarassing, we had this back in the 90's.

>>266651079
>Sir Arthur in Smash
Man, that'd be fucking awesome.

>>266650981
I know there's a theory going around that a character was quickly shoehorned in once they discovered that Ice Climbers couldn't work.

I'd be pretty pissed off if I was in melee and got kicked in brawl. He can't let things go.

so /v/ what do you think of conquests

I dunno about you, but I'm having a blast.

>>266645198
not him but i don't remember unlocking that, it was already in.

>>266651067
I do know what I'm talking about.

>same idle animation
>same attacks
>same attack animations
>only visual difference is sword edge is silver instead of gold and his wings are black instead of white

>>266651195
You can, just only with friends

>>266646243
Don't get Awakening, play the GBA and GC Fire Emblems, they are far better.

>implying this game won't work with the N3DS
>implying the N3DS won't enhance everything for Smash

>>266649215
Because it was a shit game.

>>266651127
>>266651195
Yep. You can only customize game options if you play with people in your 3DS friends list only. No pugs allowed. So basically you will never get to fight random people online with customized settings unless you "meet" them online first and swap friend codes.

>>266646243
If you have a well-enough-paying job and a lot of extra fun coupons lying around, I recommend OoT 3D, really great remake of a classic-ass game that includes Master Quest as well, so it beats the hell out of searching eBay for a cheap Master Quest copy.
Wario Land III is also the sickest shit.

>>266646449
in Kid icarus uprising happens, and it's worse since you lose AN ENTIRE intensity level, here you just lost the half
the only solution here is git gud

>>266650579
I thought Doc was slower and heavier, but did more damage and knockback?

>>266651446
But muh waifu system!

>>266651771
That's not even what I meant, I'm saying the net code is completely atrocious. Other fighting games have managed to make themselves playable for years, and somehow they made this worse than brawl.

>>266651087
Not even close to a clone, his up special has 0 knockback if you don't sweet spot it, and his fireballs behave differently.
Plus it fucking makes sense that Luigi and Mario would share fireballs and a Jump Punch.

>>266651880

I have enough GameStop PowerUp Rewards points for $20 off of any in-stock pre-owned game, but I've never used points before so I don't know how to use that

>>266647023
>barely any music

This is pissing me off. Brawl had a metric shitton of music for each series, and now it's barely anything.

Collecting music was fun af in Brawl.

>>266651925
I know you are joking, but it's sad that some people bought the game for that. Just look at the sad state of Fire Emblem General now.

>>266651976
They just can't get it right man. I don't know why it is so difficult?

>>266646449
You must be having trouble with 9.0 Master Core, I can feel for you on that since coin farming got really frustrating after a while and I threw my shoulder out trying to dodge around the big faggot sword form.
Since I main Ganondorf, abusing the fuck out of Side B really helped take out everything before and the final form of Master Core, it's a damn good thing his Down A combos after Flame Choke now.

>>266652072
You do know that Brawl was double sided because of all the fucking music, right? You can expect it in the WiiU version.

Have to wait for the console version for the ton of songs.

>>266652218

Are you fucking stupid or something?

Games have a 4GB limit because of the carts and Smash is only like 2.1. They had 2 fucking Gigs of space for music.

>>266652047
Click on the coupons and buy that shit with your points, helped me Jew down a copy of Uprising to 15 fun bucks.
Good luck looking for a copy of OoT and uprising on between those thousands of unsold Project X Zone and Yoshi's New Island copies.

>>266640632
how is sheik? Is she melee tier or brawl tier, or just in the middle?

>>266652107
>Just look at the sad state of Fire Emblem General now.
You right. Not enough Virion.

>>266652417
She still seems broken to me. I fought a shiek online and she was fast as fuck and I can't can't a hit in at all. You know, just we remember her.

>Can see Zelda Upskirt
>Peach is blacked out
>Rosalina's is the fucking universe
I don't get it.
