So Sakurai is not only gonna be changing movesets, but he's gonna be adding new characters in SSB4 at the expense of cutting others.

Toon Link. I'll remember all the good times we had, but I guess it's time to bid you adieu.

MWUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
My Uncloning Wishes have become true!

Blitz has taken control over Sakurai! WHO KNOWS WHAT WILL COME OF THIS?!

As long as Luigi is realitively unchanged, I will be fine.
Falco and Ganon can be changed as much as Sakurai wants.

If we were to get a roster that is less than Brawl or if any characters besides Toon Link get the axe, then the Smash-fan in me will die a bit inside

I actually thought about that, and so far, this applies only to the Wii U version (from what I heard, the person that reported the story could've screwed that detail up).

Starting to think that the 3DS version will be called Memories and it will have the cast from past Smash games, while the Wii U version has more newer characters.

Probably won't happen, though, since that Memories part was just a rumor, and most likely won't be true, which means I'll lose my previous Toon Link. :/

It's a load of horsecrap.
People keep misinterpreting what Sakurai has said.

"It's fun making new moves for new characters."

Nowhere does this imply that the veterans are getting new moves, nor does it imply that characters are being replaced, yet misinterpretations are being tossed all around as fact. -_-

Until there is a real statement by Sakurai that says anything that article says, it's still horsecrap.

Sakurai has said nothing about there being less characters than Brawl.
Nor has he said there would be "many" Newcomers.

The only thing he said was the quote I have above: "It's fun making new moves for new characters."
People have misinterpreted the HELL out of it, when it's frigging clear as day; he's saying that he likes giving new characters new techniques.

EDIT: What's worse is that they're going by a source that claimed there wouldn't be any more than 35 characters by yet ANOTHER misinterpretation of what Sakurai said before, which was on the order of "we have probably already reached the limit of what’s feasible".

Face it, the internet articles these days are full of idiots that jump to conclusions and bs whatever they can in order to be known.

if only we had the dojo

Guys nobody said anybody is getting cut.

It's just implied that we will get new characters in the game.

Im clearly aware of, yet its only just us hoping there are no cuts

Am I the only one getting flashbacks from that time when he said "For the first time, you'll be able to see Brawl's new characters in action!" and people just assumed "OMG NEW CHARACTERS OUR BODIES ARE NOT READY!"?

I hope they do de-clone a number of the characters. Ganondorf whipping out his sword only to put it away and not use it seemed like a pointless tease.

Sadly that won't come for another few months.

They had better use a Dojo, it updated just as I got out of bed, I've never been able to get out of bed so easily! I had crap internet at the time, so the page would load slowly and I'd look at the bottom of the page watching the names of the images that were loading fly by looking for clues. Then one day I saw an image loading called "characters/images/sonic/sonic.jpg" and I nearly jumped out of my seat in excitement.

So in other words, I'm all for the Dojo.

So far, development for SSB4 has been going for about 6 months up to this point. So hopefully a dojo is made soon

They heard "We won't hear any news until E3"

I heard "We'll hear news at E3"

Uber-bump, but we'll need this thread again. They just confirmed we'll see gameplay in the conference, rather than just a cutscene reveal.

Did you post that because you actually thought it's real, or so everyone can laugh at how fake it is?

I'm just the messenger

NO MAN, PERSIAN OR GREEK NO MAN THREATENS A MESSENGER.

Quote :

Sakurai has also answered questions on Twitter about the new game. When asked about any changes to the fighting mechanics, Sakurai responded, “After 17 years, the trip mechanic has evolved into trip combos.”

It even had me slightly concerned until that last bit.

Stages
Some kind of canyon with a river
Spirit Tracks Train (Toon Link as driver, hints of removal)
Some kind of medieval arena with a wooden structure
New (Mario?) stage with spikes raising from the ground
Nintendogs Stage, players crouching under blocks, possibly to avoid something
Some (Donkey Kong?) jungle level with an underground wheel, big scale, could possibly be story mode
Boxing Ring (Possibly Punch-Out)
Mega Man themed Dr. Wily stage

Characters
Villager Added
Mega Man Added
Pit uses new weapon, has an upwards dash
Donkey Kong's Up B on land seems to have forward momentum now
Pikachu can crawl, not sure if possible in Brawl
Yellow Devil from Mega Man, possible boss


I had a very close look at the trailer, this is all the new stuff I could spot.

There's also a Skyloft stage around 1:19

Mario's Up Smash doesn't enlarge his head anymore, either.
And yes Pikachu could crawl in Brawl, I believe.

And if you look around 0:44 on the Megaman trailer it might hint to the inclusion of visible battle damage which was cut from brawl.

And did anybody else like how Mario dropped coins everywhere when Megaman threw the saw at him? lul

Looking at the dojo, every character in their gallery has both Wii U screenshots and 3DS screenshots, except for Villager. Villager could possibly be a Wii U exclusive, but it's still way too freakin' early to be speculating crap like this I suppose.

Only 2 new characters i was expecting 4-5 ( Like in the Brawl trailer ) but its ok The Skyloft Stage look like the Project M Skyloft . I also think that they sould not put 2 different Rosters because how do you play with all the character if Villager is only on Wii-U and exemple Chrom is on the 3DS i dont really want to buy both game to play a 1 or 2 character that i really like but we will see what happen in the future .

Anyone noticed that Bowser did a dropkick? lol

Hahaha, yeah. I figured it was in brawl though, I meant to check.

I also love Bowser's new artwork/color scheme.

I was expecting Pac-Man in the debut trailer, but I'm sure he'll get in.

What I really want the most out of this Smash is a better stage builder. More parts to work with, setting custom spawn and respawn points, adjusting angles or platforms, no red blocks, able to create walkoffs and scrolling stages, and non-generic themes are the things I would LOVE to see.

That dropkick...lol

Anywho, I'm hyped for Villager. After seeing the balloon fight move...replace Balloon Fighter anyone?

If Megaman has a Shoryuken, can he have an Objection too please? ...please...

Well this is.... unexpected
