Topic: Super Smash Bros. for Wii U - OT

I understand people being disappointed Wulf or Snake or their faves didn't make it. I feel that way for no Koopalings in mario maker but looking forward to them in paper jam.

That Shulk user is a chump. He didn't back slash hard enough

@LztheQuack: He needs to scratch those backs harder!...funnier when you miss hear it as back scratch : P

Then again, it's not as bad as killing Cloud with cans, pigeons and duck snaps

Were the non-Japanese directs subtitled or dubbed?

Dubbed.

@Tsuchinoko Europe's had subtitles while NA's was dubbed. I believe that is usually how each region does their directs/presentations.

@yokokazuo: interesting. I remember him saying something different than the quoted "last new character" bit in the Japanese direct. I have to look at it again.

Btw, first controversial Smash 5 prediction: Cloud is first cut.

It's WAAAAAAAAAAAY too early to be thinking about a hypothetical Smash 5. Let's just enjoy what we've got, hm?

@TeeJay: oh, Im not being pessimistic or anything, totally objective. There's reasons.

@Tsuchinoko: naaa just wait till squre gets a taste of that sweet sweet easy to make amiibo money. When they release the smash wiiu complete collection on the nx he will be there. We may even get paid dlc for sora.

@faint: i honestly hope you're right, and that Konami comes crawling back and tries to get their collective life together and bring Snake in for the third-party party.

@Tsuchinoko: I would even go as far to guess that square will get more money for every cloud amiibo sold than sega gets for sonic. Square has always been good at negotiations. This partnership will be very lucrative for them. All they have to do from here on out is sign papers and collect money. After how konami treated kojima I personally wouldn't want to work with them if I was Nintendo but who knows.

Does anyone know what "KBG" means? I'm going through the patch notes and I can't figure out what it means.
Also, It's about time Kirby got a buff.

@VeeFlamesNL: KBG means Knock Back Growth.

Basically, how stronger the moves get when the opponent has more damage percent IIRC.

Happy about the patch. Shulk got buffed a lot again (less landing lag in aerials and more damage outputs almost all attacks)

That looks too much like The KGB, as in Komitet gosudarstvennoy bezopasnosti.

Oh, can someone explain Dedede's changes? What exactly do they do?

@VeeFlamesNL: Gridatttack pretty much has it. It's just the measure of how quickly the knockback on an attack builds based on the damage of the receiving opponent. For example, Fox's laser has no knockback growth (mostly cause it has no knockback), Mario's forward tilt has average/good KBG, and Ike's just about everything and Cloud's Final Touch have excellent KBG.

Nah, Snake needs to be exclusive to Pachinko machines...complete with pachinko insurance, horse armor, and lawyers

@Gridatttack: @UGXwolf: Ah, makes sense now. Thanks very much!
