Topic: Super Smash Bros. for Wii U - OT

That code had 6 characters, not 7. There's two slots left from that. However, that in no way means we are getting only 2 more characters.

It's possible that those two remaining "Mario" spots are other non-ballot characters that are being kept secret but...
"From now until the end, it is going to be fan service"
...kinda goes against that thought.

Hey, ya never know! They could've been reserved for Wolf and Snake (or Ice Climbers, but I kinda doubt that).

Not necessarily. Having those last two slots be for Wolf and, say, Snake, would technically still be fan service.

...goes back to corner TwT

I think at most is 5 and at least is 2. Wouldn't be surprised if two left due to only two "Mario" slots, hopefully he added more slots...

Oh yeah didn't he mention there are new modes in the making?

Well, the "Mario" slots were added prior to Mewtwo so they could add more later down the road.
...And yeah, there's that talk about extra modes and the awaiting Tourney Mode.

For the time being, those are single lines of data in massive multi-Gig games. It wouldn't be difficult to add more slots. It's just a placeholder to easily slot in full character. I can't imagine it'd be tough to add more.

Not if they just keep rehashing old characters like Mewto, Lucas, Roy, Wolf, Ice Climbers, etc. I imagine Ryu did take a long time to develop though because he's one of the most unique characters in the game.

I could see the Inkling boy and girl being one of the future DLC and a pallete swap of the same slot but I have no connection to them so I wouldn't really be bothered to purchase them.

I'd like to see Chun-Li, Tails, and maybe Dixie Kong. Interesting how they admit they were working on Ryu, Lucas and Roy before the polls even finished. That pretty much confirms it's nothing more than hype marketing and the game developers already made up their minds.

I would be totally fine if they just didn't release anymore DLC characters and instead patched the online mode so we can actually interact with each other, create lobbies, have a ranking system, etc.

The game has a meaty roster at this point.

That won't ever happen. Not because of the DLC bit, but because the online interaction as is is already being used pretty much exclusively for bullying other players (with the occasional "Good Game" running around.) People say they want more, but they always show they'll just abuse it every time.

Also, I get that you have no attachment to the characters being added as of late, but Smash 4 won't feel right to me until Wolf is back. Not because of the character, but because nobody plays even remotely like him, in the game. I'm still missing my old Main from the Brawl days and believe it or not, that does actually hurt the game a fair bit from where I'm standing. I'm sire quite a few people felt Brawl's roster was incomplete because Mewtwo and Roy weren't there. I know a lot of people missed Lucas. The fans have been pretty vocal, so if you can't be happy with the new characters for yourself, can't you just acknowledge that some people really wanted those characters. (I mean, heck, that was my reaction to Pac-Man. I didn't want him, but I was happy some people got their wish, and now he's one of my playables.)

I would also like a better online experience. I want there to be a custom matchmaking mode just like the one in Mario Kart 8. Also I want a connection bar while in matches, so you know what your getting into.

Hey guys! I've come across some funny stuff and whatnot while playing Smash, so I thought I'd just share those experiences.

That is pretty crazy

The stuff Lythero can do in Smash is both crazy and awesome.

That is somewhat unfair... XD
EDIT: Well, not unfair much, though. Fox was bound to get knocked out sooner rather than later.

I...I'm not even entirely sure if I know what happened then.

I just played a few Anther's Ladder matches. Holy crud, the players on there are much more skilled than people on FG. Lot nicer too.

Thanks Reddit for telling me this place exists.
