+Animedude Johnson That's an event where 16 of the best SSB players played SSB4WiiU for the 1st time in a tournament set up. One of the hosts recited the classic theme when MM used the final smash in the quote you're using.
To think that just last year at the time of this video, we were eagerly anticipating what new characters would be revealed, if there would be alternate costumes, what new stages would be introduced, how the gameplay would shape up, what new items would be introduced, if the online play was going to be improved... Now, it's only one month and a few more weeks until the release of the 3DS version; with the Wii U version following shortly afterward. Nintendo is doing a great job in making this game and I personally am getting more excited as we draw closer. Let's go, Smash!
I dont know why, but I prefer Yoshi and Bowser to be hunched over; it gives bowser a more menacing look and makes Yoshi just looks more natural that way
Gotta say, I'm really impressed by all of the visual and gameplay details (Bowser looks really badass now). Villager and his pick up move looks like it will have great trolling potential.
Did you notice in the trailer and some of the screenshots? Regna Ferox's arena is a stage in the 3DS version. Hopefully that means Chrom will be in the game.
He explain that since the camera is panned out on the 3ds version. They outline the fighters, so they can be easily spotted. Which makes sense, considering the 3DS screen, isn't like a T.V screen XD
I just noticed something, whenever they show actual matches going on, the music for the stage plays, except on that boxing arena stage, I wonder why...
its also mostly the dark and scratchy lighting in the game and how it needed more shadow to the characters back then, not to mention how most of the particle effects are only 2D
At first I didn't really care that Mega-man was going to be in smash bros. Then I downloaded the original megaman for my wii u and now I can't wait to play as him!
I'm just now noticing that. I believe it's only used for this direct to showcase some of the characters moves without a platform interfering. Like how megaman jumps, his jump would fall short because of the platform and the attack would have ended quicker. But anyway that is the battlefield
I hope this game has alternate costumes for each character: Mario's cat suit, Samus's fusion suit, Link's magic armor (TP), Megaman as his brother Protoman, etc. etc.
Sakurai said that his main priorities were of Nintendo characters first then third party characters. Mega man is an exception because he was a fan request from many people. Also he wants the same amount of characters for both versions and the 3ds limits that number significantly. Also as you can see Mega mans rush coil is the exact same as Sonic's up B move which means he was most likely replaced. It takes to much time and hard work to add him due to copyright issues.
I love the fact that Nintendo are including some characters from other companies. I was so hyped about Sonic and Snake being in the Wii version. I really hope they, and other non-Nintendo characters, make it into this version.
It looks genuinely fantastic. The colours are more vivid, it gives off a more playful vibe over Brawl which tried to go more serious. The pace of the combat is more reminiscent of Melee. The 3DS art-style looks amazing, and the inclusion of Villager and Megaman is just what I wanted. MUST BUY!
Interesting... He said there would be the same amount of characters there was in Brawl. I'm curious to see which ones were taken out and which ones were left in. Obviously the original 8 from the original Smash Bros will always be in the game but I wonder about the rest.
I don't know what kind of Pit you've been using/playing against, but the Pit I use and play against rarely have opponents at 130%+ I kill with Pit at 90% and sometimes at 80 if I'm at the edge. And for the side smash, I always hit the second if I hit the first. I can't think up a time where I've missed the second
"The wii fit trainer's final move is called: wii fit", man, that must have taken hours to come up with. Gotta love the creativity in that name, definitely worth naming a final smash and announcing it to e3. Genious.
Lmao, I love sakurai attention to detail. You know that movement megaman does with his feet when he takes a slight step forward in the nes games, Sakurai nailed it at 4:05. XD
It seems the grab attack doesn't last more than a second so it's precise timing to do it right. The shovel can be button mashed out off I guess. Sakurai and his team are doing their best to balance the game, so anything could happen.
there are more characters, they dont announce all characters when the game is announced, we wil lsee the rest of the characters as time passes, (back when brawl was announced the only characters confirmed were, Mario, Link, Kirby, Pikachu, MetaKnight, Pit, Same, Wario and Snake, but as u know there were more in the game, as time passes we will see the rest of the roster)
its a high chance sonic is returning he is one of the first 3 party characters to star in a ssb game he got numerous wii 3ds titles and he have the new sonic lost worlds so he might come back but other characters from his series probably wont though maybe shadow cause he had a game on gamecube an
The way I look at it, if they can make a solid character out of R.O.B., an NES accessory, then I have no problem believing they can do the same with Wii Fit Trainer.
might be interesting, but really, I just hope to see all my favorites returning to the game. I won't rest until smash has a character roster that rivals marvel vs capcom 2. :P
Megaman looks awesome! Not only that but his attacks are a change of pace when compared to other characters. I used to always use Samus but i think ill be changing it up for this game :D
Sakurai said that there won't be any Namco Bandai characters, but it'd be nice to actually see him fight instead of using Mokujin like he did in Street Fighter x Tekken.
villager seems really good (since he can catch any projectile) megaman seems like a very unique character to play as wiifit trainer was certainly a strange choice
Am I the only one that hears '' The total amount of characters in both versions'' instead of ''The same characters''? I suppose both versions will have exclusive characters like the Wii Fit Trainer in the Wii U because it's a home console and (possibly) Chrom in the 3DS because he is from a 3DS game. And yes I know, ''What about the Villager and Pit? They are from the 3DS''. True, but Pit was in the last one so he was going to appear in both version and the ACrossing was a home console first.
many of both of their moves seem very counter-able, like you cant get stuck in the ground for that long unless you remain motionless. Also, I expect villagers "collect" move will be based on how predictable the player is (like marth's counter)
i hope they will keep all the old characters from the old game i know some of the characters were rubbish like the ice climbers and king deeded but i would still like to see them in this game also
I don't see why people are complaining about the Wii Fit Trainer. Yes, I thought it was a questionable decision as well, but upon seeing the style and thought they put into the character, I was pretty blown away.
It seems that we'll be getting 2 versions of Wily 1, the original 8 Bit one and the Smash Bros update... if u listen in the background of the stages u can hear the music for those stages so it seems that its a safe bet these are what we'll be getting...
the one thing that sucks is theres not going to be a lot more character than in brawl because the 3ds cant hold that much info but the wii u can hold more info maybe there will be like 5 or 10 more character than in brawl
Lol you have no clue! There probably will be the same amount, if not more characters in this one! I wouldn't worry about the memory! They are obviously working around that fit!
You brought up an issue I was just about to address. I think she uses up a valuable character slot in the roster. (Especially since Sakurai said that they'd have LESS characters than Brawl) In the end, I'm fine with her being a character, I trust Sakurai, I just believe another one of the HUNDREDS of requested smashers would be better than the trainer.
For adventure mode anyone think it would be cool if each character had like a 6 to 7 stage story with unlockables or would you prefer one big story again like subspace?
Yeah I know Sonic was in Brawl and believe me I want him back in the Wii U version but I heard from an interview with Sakurai that he was not very happy with Sonic's move set because it was all basically rolling and punching attacks. He said that if he were to return though it may not be possible, he would completely re-work his moves and attacks. And this would take up too much time. They already announced the three Nintendo exclusive game Sonic would appear in, Smash bros was not one of them.
coming back to this video , just to get my fix of smash bros gameplay. Can't wait for a release date to be announced
Sometime in spring. :)
Oh man , I wish it was here by July.
Jsampsss Nope!
when is it being released?
In the Direct , Sakurai said Summer for 3DS Winter for Wii U
I was blown with those graphics from that time, who's here 2020
Can't wait for Smash Bros. Wii U!
watching this again to get hyped for the direct on Tuesday!!
Super fighting robot. Mega Man!
Fighting to save... The World!
+TiagoMendonca8591
Wrong. My version is based on the intro, not the invitational.
dnmstarsi
What's the invitational?
+Animedude Johnson
That's an event where 16 of the best SSB players played SSB4WiiU for the 1st time in a tournament set up. One of the hosts recited the classic theme when MM used the final smash in the quote you're using.
Could Bill Trinen do an audio book or something? Because his voice is so pleasant.
*throws up everywhere*
Notice how Bowser model isn't mirrored in this earlier version of the game.
To think that just last year at the time of this video, we were eagerly anticipating what new characters would be revealed, if there would be alternate costumes, what new stages would be introduced, how the gameplay would shape up, what new items would be introduced, if the online play was going to be improved...

Nintendo is doing a great job in making this game and I personally am getting more excited as we draw closer. Let's go, Smash!
We have come a long way of just getting excited I can't wait to play it
Haha we have. Now its just 2 hours before release! (At least here in the US)
Your lucky,I won't get to play it on the wii u.
P.s good luck with your gameplay.
Masahiro Sakurai , thank you . This already means a lot to me . And both versions FTW !
I dont know why, but I prefer Yoshi and Bowser to be hunched over; it gives bowser a more menacing look and makes Yoshi just looks more natural that way
I kinda wish they did too lmao.
Gotta say, I'm really impressed by all of the visual and gameplay details (Bowser looks really badass now). Villager and his pick up move looks like it will have great trolling potential.
oh my god mega man has been so nerf from this stage of the game developpement :O
Did you notice in the trailer and some of the screenshots? Regna Ferox's arena is a stage in the 3DS version. Hopefully that means Chrom will be in the game.
they should add pacman
and don,t forget about little mac and mii
joshua786100 Wow. You predicted that before they actually announced him. Impressive :)
Tylerburrito Pac-Man has had that look for a while. I remember seeing that look before the TV show and VG adaptation.
thats what gives him his charm. his design, theme, attacks, everything
Wow! I actually...love the way they did Megaman! It's so..different and true to his nature c:
He explain that since the camera is panned out on the 3ds version. They outline the fighters, so they can be easily spotted. Which makes sense, considering the 3DS screen, isn't like a T.V screen XD
You did not disappoint.
I really appreciate and respect all the work he's done over the years!
Holy fucking christ I have been waiting for this game forever. I've played them all, and sure as hell am not gonna miss this!
I just noticed something, whenever they show actual matches going on, the music for the stage plays, except on that boxing arena stage, I wonder why...
Turns out I had the right idea, it's a Punch-Out stage. Good job past me.
His aim was to make a tongue-in-cheek character from a recent Nintendo series, and one that no one would expect. He succeeded in all three regards.
They said that there will be some sort of customization and that your "creation" can be transferred from 3DS to WiiU. Excited for that!
I'm sure you'll get used to it; I used to think Fox's blaster sound was obnoxious but now I barely notice it
its also mostly the dark and scratchy lighting in the game and how it needed more shadow to the characters back then, not to mention how most of the particle effects are only 2D
They never used the word "guest". The original trailers implied joined the fight type of thing.
and i cant wait to see all the cutscenes
Sakurai you just outdid yourself. This is marvelous! :D
Bless you Masahiro Sakurai...
Since I have the 3DS XL, I'll save up by the end of this year as my Christmas gift.
At first I didn't really care that Mega-man was going to be in smash bros.
Then I downloaded the original megaman for my wii u and now I can't wait to play as him!
Ability to grab almost any projectile, plus the shovel move which seems to leave foes immobile for a long time.
Yep, I agree.
4:09 Is that Final Destination? Or Battlefield without the platforms?
I hope Battle field can be with and without platforms. Lol
I'm just now noticing that. I believe it's only used for this direct to showcase some of the characters moves without a platform interfering. Like how megaman jumps, his jump would fall short because of the platform and the attack would have ended quicker. But anyway that is the battlefield
I hope this game has alternate costumes for each character: Mario's cat suit, Samus's fusion suit, Link's magic armor (TP), Megaman as his brother Protoman, etc. etc.

"he can even pull weeds"
now you know this guy is going to be on the top tier list
I love the fact that Nintendo are including some characters from other companies. I was so hyped about Sonic and Snake being in the Wii version. I really hope they, and other non-Nintendo characters, make it into this version.
It looks genuinely fantastic. The colours are more vivid, it gives off a more playful vibe over Brawl which tried to go more serious. The pace of the combat is more reminiscent of Melee. The 3DS art-style looks amazing, and the inclusion of Villager and Megaman is just what I wanted. MUST BUY!
My god... that come-back was perfect!
XD
3:57 - You can really see how much work they put into Megaman...if only they'd remake his adventures in full 3D now...
Interesting... He said there would be the same amount of characters there was in Brawl. I'm curious to see which ones were taken out and which ones were left in. Obviously the original 8 from the original Smash Bros will always be in the game but I wonder about the rest.
and Kid Icarus Uprising, I love that game, it's very challenging, has a lot of replay value, the story is awesome, and it's addicting
I don't know what kind of Pit you've been using/playing against, but the Pit I use and play against rarely have opponents at 130%+ I kill with Pit at 90% and sometimes at 80 if I'm at the edge. And for the side smash, I always hit the second if I hit the first. I can't think up a time where I've missed the second
"The wii fit trainer's final move is called: wii fit", man, that must have taken hours to come up with. Gotta love the creativity in that name, definitely worth naming a final smash and announcing it to e3. Genious.
FLUDD is still his Down special, gameplay footage of Mario vs Megaman shows it
1:24 Anyone noticed something funny about that block in the room? It has the Puzzle League pieces on its sides. Sly little Easter Egg there.
I heard from E3 that Mega Man's metal blade isn't that great, as well as the leaf sheild. I hope they fix that.
I know,it's ironic how the overpowered Metal Blade ends up being one of Megaman's least useful moves.
Klonoa is from namco, and quite a few klonoa games have come out on nintendo consoles, even a remake of the first one.
Lmao, I love sakurai attention to detail. You know that movement megaman does with his feet when he takes a slight step forward in the nes games, Sakurai nailed it at 4:05. XD
The best 8 minutes and 12 seconds ever
ohh my gawdd the graphics are amazing on both versions I hope this one has like 50 characters in it
It seems the grab attack doesn't last more than a second so it's precise timing to do it right. The shovel can be button mashed out off I guess.
Sakurai and his team are doing their best to balance the game, so anything could happen.
there are more characters, they dont announce all characters when the game is announced, we wil lsee the rest of the characters as time passes,
(back when brawl was announced the only characters confirmed were, Mario, Link, Kirby, Pikachu, MetaKnight, Pit, Same, Wario and Snake, but as u know there were more in the game, as time passes we will see the rest of the roster)
he should focus on both the 4 play multi-player and the 1v1 metagame which probably applies to more families then he thinks
I really hope you could control the characters with the D-Pad on the GamePad
He'll be there, do not worry
Relax, I'm just waiting for the right moment.
its a high chance sonic is returning he is one of the first 3 party characters to star in a ssb game he got numerous wii 3ds titles and he have the new sonic lost worlds so he might come back but other characters from his series probably wont though maybe shadow cause he had a game on gamecube an
4:10 is that the final destination form of battlefield?
Glad your arms better mr. Sakurai
Honestly probably yes. He wants to tease us so we stay interested in the new characters that will most likely be revealed later.
Sakurai, I should've never doubted you.
The way I look at it, if they can make a solid character out of R.O.B., an NES accessory, then I have no problem believing they can do the same with Wii Fit Trainer.
I think Mii's would be a great addition, using attacks and items themed around the plaza games :)
might be interesting, but really, I just hope to see all my favorites returning to the game. I won't rest until smash has a character roster that rivals marvel vs capcom 2. :P
Well...
Gotta love the villager 'picking up' everything and just sending it back. I guess fireballs and charge shots don't sell for much at Tom Nook's.
It looks like the Wii Fit Trainer is really
"puts on sunglasses"
shaping up to be a great character.
I think seeing all the praise the games themselves get is enough for him. :D
Megaman looks awesome! Not only that but his attacks are a change of pace when compared to other characters. I used to always use Samus but i think ill be changing it up for this game :D
Sakurai said that there won't be any Namco Bandai characters, but it'd be nice to actually see him fight instead of using Mokujin like he did in Street Fighter x Tekken.
Megaman looks awesome! So old school
villager seems really good (since he can catch any projectile)
megaman seems like a very unique character to play as
wiifit trainer was certainly a strange choice
that's exactly what my friend said and he's crazy about the franchise!
Am I the only one that hears '' The total amount of characters in both versions'' instead of ''The same characters''? I suppose both versions will have exclusive characters like the Wii Fit Trainer in the Wii U because it's a home console and (possibly) Chrom in the 3DS because he is from a 3DS game. And yes I know, ''What about the Villager and Pit? They are from the 3DS''. True, but Pit was in the last one so he was going to appear in both version and the ACrossing was a home console first.
It's also confirmed no cross platforming. The 3DS and Wii U will have different stages, so a linked match between them is not happening.
@thatguywhocamps dude you liked this video it shows on your feed.......upload a video we miss you
And the trailer for brawl was first shown at E3 2006
Would have been cool if they added the Mii as a character as well, but I don't know how they would make it's fighting style.
many of both of their moves seem very counter-able, like you cant get stuck in the ground for that long unless you remain motionless.
Also, I expect villagers "collect" move will be based on how predictable the player is (like marth's counter)
Thanks for make a new smash bros.
From what I remember, even during Brawl development, The Villager was actually really high requested...Wii Fit Trainer on the other hand...idaknow...
i hope they will keep all the old characters from the old game i know some of the characters were rubbish like the ice climbers and king deeded but i would still like to see them in this game also
I don't see why people are complaining about the Wii Fit Trainer. Yes, I thought it was a questionable decision as well, but upon seeing the style and thought they put into the character, I was pretty blown away.
I want Pichu to return. I liked the damage-yourself aspect with him, as its what Pichu do in the actual Pokemon series.
It seems that we'll be getting 2 versions of Wily 1, the original 8 Bit one and the Smash Bros update... if u listen in the background of the stages u can hear the music for those stages so it seems that its a safe bet these are what we'll be getting...
1) The graphics look WAAAAAAAAAAAAAY better now.
2) As of 2014, it will have been 6 years.
The most important thing is that Megaman is in Super Smash Bros after his success in the Marvel vs Capcom series. =D
3:04 nice
Take it back...
TAKE IT BACK NOW! You're crushing me hopes (and dreams)! I don't wanna be sad face... :(
I love you Sakurai!
the one thing that sucks is theres not going to be a lot more character than in brawl because the 3ds cant hold that much info but the wii u can hold more info maybe there will be like 5 or 10 more character than in brawl
Lol you have no clue! There probably will be the same amount, if not more characters in this one! I wouldn't worry about the memory! They are obviously working around that fit!
well thank you for read all of it but do you really want the same amount of guys I don't I want more give me you feed back
Carlos Tinoco Well to be honest, more characters than in brawl is a little bit much!
not really just look at dragonball z I want more characters not less or same
VideoRanter I really hope it has more or that's the last time I ever buy the new Nintendo systems
I enjoy Bowser's new look.
The stages looks awesome!
I'm pretty excited about this game!
What? Megaman fights exactly how he plays in the original Megaman game. It's perfect.
It seems like Megaman is OP. his uppercut, leaf thing and moving while using the lemons
You brought up an issue I was just about to address. I think she uses up a valuable character slot in the roster. (Especially since Sakurai said that they'd have LESS characters than Brawl)
In the end, I'm fine with her being a character, I trust Sakurai, I just believe another one of the HUNDREDS of requested smashers would be better than the trainer.
For adventure mode anyone think it would be cool if each character had like a 6 to 7 stage story with unlockables or would you prefer one big story again like subspace?
Dude, Masahiro sakurai looks like he's dressed from the 70's
I can already see me trolling the hell outta my friends with the Wii Fit Trainer!
Yeah I know Sonic was in Brawl and believe me I want him back in the Wii U version but I heard from an interview with Sakurai that he was not very happy with Sonic's move set because it was all basically rolling and punching attacks. He said that if he were to return though it may not be possible, he would completely re-work his moves and attacks. And this would take up too much time.
