This made me think of how many characters could be in the game... must be a lot.

They are sitting at 29 now (23 returning and 6 new)

It's like if they released Titanfall on the 360 five months before the Xbox One version.

Not really like that at all. The 360 is played in exactly the same way as the XBOne so there would be no reason to buy it again. Also if you really wanted said game you'd get it as early as you could, play the heck out of it and then move onto the next thing.

Smash isn't like that, the 3DS isn't like that and this version of Smash in particular isn't like that. The only other game comparison I can think of is Mario Kart. So far Mario Kart console sales and hype hasn't faded because of the two excellent portable versions. Infact Mario Kart DS and Mario Kart Wii managed to sell fantastically while sitting side by side on the shelves. Given that both versions have their own stages/modes and each platform has its own benefits I don't see why this wouldn't also be the case for Smash.

My thoughts after the direct is that Nintendo should just can the Wii U version and work on something else.

To blessed to be stressed.

That's third party.

I don't think the latter release window for the Wii U version is a good thing, considering its a struggling console.........now it will have to compete with holiday season heavy hitters for the new consoles (and thus the consumers attention and cash).

I'll buy the 3DS version for sure, I can't say I will do the same for the Wii U, despite the lush visuals. If they released at the same time, it would be the other way around.

i think you might be neglecting to realise that 'lush visuals' do influence game sales. not to mention that the game will have different stages, controller schemes, and single player modes.

more over, those who might be inclined to buy both might see the 3ds as a precursor to the wiiu version, almost like a huge demo. the polish (assuming they use the extra time wisely) from the extra months will improve the gameplay?

I thought it was dope.

I'm glad they are giving us the 3DS version early.

Probably wouldn't have played it nearly as much if they did a simultaneous release (HD graphics and Smash was made to play with a controller), but now I'll have a few months to mess around with the game on portable.

Greninja reveal at the end was awesome and completely unexpected. Can't wait for this.

<h3>RARELY<h3> has a direct exceeded my expectations. I was vocalizing for a good 4-5 minutes till my throat got tired. Sakurai has just....... killed it.

He freaking killed it. My hype levels just gone through the roof right now.

Was Mariobro4. No, I'm not taking off my backpack...it's important.

As Sakurai said: "Please keep in mind though, that the games are still under development, so anything in the game footage you're about to see could change."

Oh and he means it. I spotted Rosalina's legs outside of her dress. I guess this means no Rosalina panties in HD! XD

Also, I first I was skeptical about Rosalina's Final Smash, but then I realized how powerful it would be in stages with a lot of walls (or small cramped stages). The stars would would be nearly impossible in those types of situations.

The release date for the Wii U version is a sound strategic move. What else would they position for 2014 holiday season?

So Anakin kneels before Monster Mash and pledges his loyalty to the graveyard smash.

Haha, nice catch there.

I for one know I'll be picking both of these up, I can't resist either.

This Direct was a lot better than I expected :3 Perhaps the titles are final, though, as no other title was announced Now all they have to do is confirm Chrom, and I will have everything I asked for in this game <3

My hype for Smash Bros. 4 is Officially OVER 9,000!!!!!! >8D

Though I still got plenty of hype left over for Mario Kart 8, Persona Q, Yarn Yoshi, anddddd Sonic Boom ;D

I don't remember Sakurai saying he wanted to changing anything radically.

Anyway, I'd rather have other unexpected, not-asked-for characters than a single Star Fox clone

Where's the Sonic characters? Shadow was not an assist trophy so someone is on their way. I can feel it.

This Direct destroyed all other Directs just because of Smash Run. City Trial... In Smash Bros... In other words the two greatest multiplayer games of all time have been mixed into one! I've been literally hoping for a City Trial sequel for EVERY direct, and this is good enough for me! Then they revealed Greninja! He's my second favorite pokemon, (My first being Goodra) and I've hoped he would be a fighter pretty much since I played Pokemin X. (Which was my first Pokemon game, which probably explains why I like Greninja so much. He's my starter!)

I like makin' games!
Future Pinball games!
Petit Computer games!!
and SmileBASIC games!
Waiting for Kirby Air Ride 2. One day, it will come. One day...
