TSR's Super Smash Bros Thread|SWITCH HYPE TRAIN NOW BOARDING

[Kriven]

I don't know that trophies discount a character's potential as DLC... That would be very limiting for a team that doesn't want to think about DLC until post-launch.

[AuraLancer]

The Ice Climbers won't be DLC. They were cut because of technical reasons.

Also, I figured out the requirements for getting the codes emailed to you - not that it matters now. You need to have gotten Platinum for last year AND have email notifications turned on. Sadly, I did not have that last one.

[Jermungandr]

What's funny is that Club Nintendo's site was under maintenance all day yesterday (or at least was every time I looked), and still is now in fact,so you can't turn on your email notifications even if you wanted to.

The first two trophies I unlock are Pichu and Ivysaur

Here are my first hands-on impressions of Ness.
He seems to have absored Lucas.
Most of his attacks have Lucas-esque PSI sparks, which increases their range.
His spike seems different, I haven't actually managed to spike with it yet. It has a PSI spark now too.
PK Fire didn't change much, it's a little faster, but doesn't seem to trap people as much as in Brawl.
PK Flash it better. It's range is increased, and it moves a bit faster. It's somewhat useable now!
PK Thunder is faster and has better knockback. I haven't used PK Thunder 2 very much, but it looks like it travels further.
PK Thunder also can't be destroyed until it's been out for a second or two. It acts like Lucas's and travels through things, which makes it easier to recover with.
PSI magnet is huge, but it's still not as useful as other things.
The yoyo smashes actually charge! However, it is at the cost of them having a hitbox while charging... but they are also faster!
Tilts are kinda the same. Different animations, same attack.
The baseball bat is bigger. Maybe faster than Brawl? I can't tell really.
Throws are good. I KOd Falco at 0% by forward throwing him near the side of the Star Fox stage, but it could be dumb AI.
All sounds effects are really neat too.

The AI kill themselves a lot, I've noticed...
I kinda regret buying the Japanese version now, because I'm going to have to unlock everything all over again in a month, but I couldn't resist. The demo was too much for me! I needed more!

If anyone wants me to test anything about a character, I would be happy to

Edit:
I also hope I don't break my circle-pad. I've never used it this hard on any 3ds game

I bought a 2DS for this reason



Well, not that reason. I had a lot of reasons to buy one, but that's the one of the reasons on why I'm using it for Smash atleast

[Chaoxys]

welp these guys arn't going to be DLC either in the possible future . -.-

RTB gonna be mad.

Keep in mind that outside of his trophies you earned in classic and All Star mode, I believe Falco have about 3 extra trophies dedicated to him in Brawl, plus Melee had a lot of Kirby trophies and what not. I'd say seeing a trophy of them here makes them somewhat less likely, but not 100% out of the question.

[NICKtendo DS]

Who decided the norm for DLC characters here? We have none so far, so we shouldn't know the rules simply because they do not exist. Yet.

[Gwen]

I do, I'm Nintendo's Official DLC Comer Upper. We are bringing in the Green man, we did steal.

[TomGuycott]

I am wondering what that closed press conference where everybody was sworn to secrecy was about. I'm assuming soon we'll know (if any of the information was new stuff anyway), since I think the date they could reveal what they saw was either the 13th or the 15th.

[Omega]

not looking good for the rumour!

[TomGuycott]

To be fair, the Chorus Kids trophy is probably the least incriminating in the regard to trophies confirming characters unplayable. Their trophy isn't even in the style of a playable character, and plenty of playable characters have multiple trophies of themselves available.

Still, it is a bad sign.

Look, I don't know how to save videos from this place, so please just watch this before it gets taken down or something:

[TomGuycott]

What is it a video of? Can't watch it at work.

[Iceman404]

Villager can eat some people's final smashes. He just absorbed Link's entirely.

[[robo9]]

If this is the same video I've seen before (on mobile, can't check) Villager didn't eat the final smash, his B move has invincibility frames
