Fused King Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 Maaan, just getting more of this: Excites me in a way no grown man should ever be excited I really hope we'll get some sort of Subspace Emissary type story mode again, so that we won't just get to have glorious newcomer introductions, but also some amazing cinematic footage in the game. Some of the shots are just screaming to be made into a poster or painting or something: It's just astounding how much Sakurai and co. manage to put in this franchise. I feel bad not having been able to purchase Smash WiiU, but I am all game for the Switch! 3

Then again, if an adapter for genuine GC controllers already exists (I didn't know that was a thing!), then I'll probably get a few for my old controllers! Just be careful of games that require the ZL Button. Because the GC controller can't do that. I hope they carry on with the guest artist thing Smash 4 did for it's newcomers. There was some proper concentrated awesome there. I always get a good laugh that Villager is on the evil side of the Bayo artwork. Edited March 12, 2018 by Glen-i 1 3 1
Goron_3 Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 Really excited for E3 now. I imagine that we will see another Smash Bros. Invitational just as we did the year Smash launched. Should make for some great viewing.

Place your bets, is he talking about Diddy Kong Racing or Banjo-Kazooie? (I still prefer Banjo-Tooie) When it comes to Banjo in Smash, I'd want either N64 design Banjo or no Banjo at all. I have a similar policy about Snake and his Voice Actor.

I forgot Banjo was in Diddy Kong Racing.. so TWO GREAT GAMES If by some miraculous chance they appear in Smash, it definitely has to be the original N64 design!
Glen-i Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 This got me to crack a smile. I lost my composure at the one-two punch of the last two.

MindFreak Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 I guess this will feature at E3 then. Quote REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– On June 11-12 in Los Angeles, an invited group of players will gather to play Super Smash Bros., and qualified teams will compete in Splatoon 2, as Nintendo hosts an event featuring high-level gameplay on these two games for Nintendo Switch. This will be the first-ever exhibition tournament featuring the recently announced Super Smash Bros. game coming to Nintendo Switch in 2018. Additionally, this will be the first world championship for Splatoon 2 after the game’s launch. The gathering will be a celebration of fun for all ages, and will highlight Nintendo’s unique approach to competitive play. The event will be just one of Nintendo’s activities at the E3 video game trade show, which runs June 12-14 at the Los Angeles Convention Center. Additional details about Nintendo’s E3 plans will be announced at a later time. The event will showcase players from around the globe in the Super Smash Bros. Invitational 2018 tournament for the newly announced Super Smash Bros. game coming to Nintendo Switch this year and the Splatoon 2 World Championship. The competitions will be livestreamed.

Hero-of-Time Posted May 9, 2018 Posted May 9, 2018 I wonder if they will be playing with items on? I'd rather they don't so we can see some high level play. Maybe have a round with and a round without?

Maybe have a round with and a round without? For the Wii U tournament, they played with items on up until the final (and i think even in the semi-finals they were set to low). Interesting mix of players to invite (four from the Melee scene, four from Smash 4). The fact that they are inviting Mango implies that Sakurai is confident in the game attracting Melee fans. Could this game be a return to the fast paced Melee? 1
