Posted November 6, 2013 "Pic of the day. Link's downward strike was designed to change to a Meteor Smash when the tip of the sword is aligned just right at the start. However, it will be removed if it's deemed too powerful overall after some multiplayer play tests." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 6, 2013 God I hope it doesn't get changed, that meteor smash effect is one of the main reasons why Toon Link was wayyy better than Link in Brawl. Link has been pathetically underpowered ever since SSBM. He desperately needs a power boost! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 6, 2013 That's a nice buff to Link and it sounds like it has strict timing since it has to be at the very start of his attack so it sounds fair to me... I have trouble landing his down air attack at all so I doubt I'll be pulling off the meteor smash. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 7, 2013 I'm liking his redesign. He looks a bit more manly now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 7, 2013 I'm surprised that they're basing his SSB4 design on New Mystery of the Emblem rather than Fire Emblem Awakening. Guess they still consider his identity to be a spoiler, no matter how painfully obvious it is... (either that or they just want to carry on the tradition of teasing us with references to games that never got a western release ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 7, 2013 Namco Bandai? And with them on board I'm confident in that we'll get a smooth & robust online service. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 7, 2013 I meant his entire body. He seems a bit more 'filled out' when compared to his Melee & Brawl models. Oh well, he's always had a feminine demeanor. Also on his redesign, I think that they chose this because they want him to stay true to his past Smash Bros attire but at the same time he'll be different to Chrom when he's eventually revealed. What about Lucina? I doubt that she'll be represented as an alt costume to THIS Marth. Her body is a lot more petit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 7, 2013 Oh, yeah. I see what you mean now. Compared to his Brawl design, I like his new one better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 7, 2013 (edited) I'm expecting that they'll continue to cover returning characters before they start unveiling anymore newcomers (add to the hype when the release date draws near?). Here are the remaining Smash Bros. veterans that are still waiting for confirmation: -Captain Falcon -Ness -Falco -Yoshi -Ganandorf -Ice Climbers -Jigglypuff -Mr Game & Watch __________________________________________________________________________________________ From Gonintendo via Kotaku "My office hours are up to me.

Posted November 7, 2013 While I think Marth looks like a J-Pop idol now more than ever, I also think he looks pretty good. It will be interesting to see if we'll see any changes to his playstyle. Also, yay for Fire Emblem Should be interesting to see what kind of music, stages, assist trophies, etc. we'll see from that series, considering its recent boost in popularity.

Posted November 7, 2013 King DeDeDe better make a return though! I do wonder though, if we might get a Diddy/Dixie combo when Tropical Freeze finally makes its way into stores. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 8, 2013 I always preferred Roy over Marth. Don't see why we can't have both. There'll be another Fire Emblem character, just a question of who. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 8, 2013 I always preferred Roy over Marth. Don't see why we can't have both. There'll be another Fire Emblem character, just a question of who. Not really a question, it'll be Chrom for sure. They always have Marth and the protagonist from the latest FE game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 8, 2013 On second thought, I'd vote for Tharja and we haven't had a female Fire Emblem character yet so bring it. MMMmmm! Lickilicious!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 8, 2013 Not really a question, it'll be Chrom for sure. They always have Marth and the protagonist from the latest FE game. Actually, Roy wasn't the latest FE protagonist at the time, since Sword of Seals hadn't been released yet (his Melee design is different fro his final design, even). Furthermore, the actual latest Fire Emblem at the time of Brawl's release was Radiant Dawn, and not only was Micaiah nowhere to be seen, Ike was sporting his young, Path of Radiance look. Essentially, Roy got in as publicity, Ike got in due to actual popularity. All of that said, I'm sure Chrom will get in by virtue of starring in what might just be the most successful Fire Emblem of all time. I'd love to see some more variety (Hector, Lyn, Ephraim, Micaiah, Elincia, Tibarn, etc.), but if we get Marth, Ike and Chrom, I won't complain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
