Sakurai interview.

Basically he talks about how hard it is to decide who gets into the...

Is there any way to actually check who owns the IP for a character?

As for Kirby I think Nintendo bought controlling stock before Smash Bros even came out, but it would be interesting to know for...

Nintendo frequently licences out their intellectual properties to other developers, but what's important is that Nintendo owns exclusive rights to the IP.

For example, Nintendo obviously owns the...

Out of 44 characters that have appeared in a SSB game, only 2 of them were not first party. Why would you think that Nintendo will start dumping tons of random, barely known 3rd party characters?...

How about some character ideas that aren't 3rd/2nd party?

We'll probably get somebody from the new Fire Emblem game to replace Ike.

We could easily get Isaac from Golden Sun.

They could...

I think most of the humanoid assist trophies in Brawl where characters they considered for inclusion as playable but decided against in the end.



Toad is unlikely but Waluigi is even more...

At E3, Playstation 4 games ran on actual PS4s (or PS4 dev kits) and Xboner games were run on.... computers with higher specs than the Xbox One

...

What possible move set could he have though? All he does is solve puzzles and walk around.


There are already too many Mario characters in it already. Plus, they'd probably add Toad before...

If they added Lloyd from ToS people who didn't recognize him would think he's just another Fire Emblem character.

If you want levels set up like Gauntlet (multiple "worlds" with 5 zones set up in a row) play Demon's Souls and if you want a levels set up like a Metroidvania with branching paths and shortcuts play...

The thing about Namco is, they have very few decent IPs, and no really iconic characters except Pacman. Almost all of their stuff is licensed anime games. They've also never had a major presence on a...

I see Pacman and Mrs Pacman arcade cabinets pretty regularly still. I guess because they're still popular in a retro way. Same with Galaga.

There is still a plot and level progression like a normal RPG. Buttplug is just referring to the "New Game +" feature that many japanese RPGs have as if it means the game is infinitely long, which...

I want the Namco character to be Yoshimitsu

I'm 99% sure it will be Pacman though

SF2 was one of the best selling games for the SNES, and SF1 was on the NES


Guile confirmed for Smash Bros U!

go to smashbros.com and look at the screenshots.

So far every stage they've shown in flat with platforms and no obvious death traps, aside from the Spirit Tracks stage which looks like a toned...

Wild speculation is good and all Rob/Radiotube, but please try to make it at least TANGENTIALLY relevant to Nintendo. I'm talking one degree of separation here, none of that Kevin Bacon shit.

...

Everything I'm hearing about Dark Souls 2 at E3 is fucking AWESOME

Boss that includes player summoning like the Old Monk boss in Demons Souls
High level of difficulty (apparently none of the...

I feel ya Cup. It was a wild ride. I remember the experience vividly too.



Some other characters I hope get into the game besides Little Mac:
Samurai Goroh
K. Rool
Tingle
Star Man from...

It's pretty much been confirmed that Toon Link will not be playable.

He's operating the train on the Spirit Tracks stage. It would be really bizarre if he was in a stage background and also...

That would be awesome, but I think in this series they should use the most recent versions of their iconic characters as they change with time. There have been a lot of new Zelda games since MM with...

Coming to the Smash bros thread to complain about people talking about smash bros?

Anyway this shithole isn't going anywhere any time soon since Smash Bros is one of those games that's more fun to...

They didn't radically change anybodies movesets, but I think they still made an effort to make them more different from each other than they were in Melee. Especially Luigi and Falco were changed a...

I hope tripping is still in the game, and Wii Fit Trainer is the only character who doesn't trip because of her perfect running technique.

They just need to redesign Ganon entirely. He shouldn't just be "slow captain falcon".


He always has a sword and shoots energy balls in games, but for some reason they don't give him these...
