Is Mega Man's hand closed?

Its definitely not holding it right. I noticed that too.

This game has been very disappointing visually. Especially anytime there's fur.

I think the main problem with fur is that they're using polygons, rather than particle effects.

Hm, well DK looked fine in Brawl. Why is it so noticeably bad now? Is it because it in HD and we can notice the faults even more?

Seriously? This game is gorgeous. The only hiccups I've seen are the fur and some clipping issues, and those could be fixed before the game comes out.

Maybe I've been playing Tropical Freeze and it's making this game look unimpressive by comparison. I guess it's DK who looks pretty bad by comparison. Not just the fur, there's something off with the entire model.

I understand what you mean, but I can't place it either. It's definitely his face though. The fur doesn't bother me.

DK's model looks fine in all the screenshots, but I really hate that art.

I feel like most of the characters look weird in one way or another. I've been really underwhelmed with the visuals in general.

I honestly don't really care how the graphics are at all

Hell, go back to N64 polys for all i care

As long as the controls are tight and gameplay sound

I'll be a happy camper

It's not that the graphics need to be better. It's the art direction that I'm not really fond of.

And Mario's legs look too long.

I think this game's art direction is leagues ahead of Melee's gritty one and Brawl's "epic" (both were good though). I think a more cartoony art style fits smash way more.

But anyway, most problem with models (altough DK's fur is really very bad) is, again, Sakurai posting REALLY CLOSE shots of a game that's not at all played at that close. You can see that the game looks really good in gameplay footage

You're right. That face is just weird. I'm looking at the Brawl version and this version and seeing that the lips are too thin and have this dark drawn line on them. So every time he opens his mouth it looks awful.

Also, never put realistic human teeth on a cartoon creature.

New stage today


«Here's a new stage for the 3DS version: Tortimer Island! I've been here countless times to catch bugs.»


«What a beautiful day. On this stage, fighters are randomly placed on a different island layout every time they visit. Yar, come back anytime, will ye?»


I'll be honest, I'm not fond of stages where the plane that the fighters actually play on isn't immediately obvious.
