The gloves are off
If you read our impressions of Super Smash Bros. for Wii U yesterday then you'll be aware of the fact that it's shaping up to be pretty special indeed.
To confirm this a little more, allow us to present some off-screen footage captured at Nintendo UK's recent post-E3 event in London, England. In it, you'll see plenty of cartoon violence and irrefutable evidence that this game looks gorgeous.

UP B.
Also were the people playing using GCN controllers?
Edit: Never mind I can see the little controller icon.
That up smash...
Happy feet! Wombo combo!
OH OH OOOOOH!!!
@Jazzer94 They had the GC adapter at the event.
@Damo What was the build quality like for the controllers and adapter?
Sure since this is as close I'm getting to a new Metroid anytime soon!
@Damo Do you reckon the skill-cap for SSB4 is as high as SSBM? It's hard for me to compare as I only watch pros play Melee (no offense!) with all their dash-dancing shizzle.
That Link player was the only one who remotely knew what he was doing, haha.
Sakurai just posted on Miiverse about a live stream revealing a new challenger! Check it out!
@Sandstorm64 Where can I find that stream?
@Luigifan141 http://www.smashbros.com/en-uk/
@Blue-Thunder These are presumably newly made which is why I want to know how they match up to the originals I already know there build quality.
No one gives a dam crap about stage builder but...i,m still waiting for some news about that.
Did I just see wave dashing?
@Senario Yeah I understand how the mechanics of wavedashing but I thought I saw the mario producing dash clouds when moving across the stage early in the video. When I first saw how air-dodging works in this game I knew that it would be impossible.
This game is really not for me. To me it's looking boring. Going after each other to able to hit. That can take some time. Very annoying gameplay to me. Good fun for the fans
Do they not know how to recover?

@blue-thunder
I can't recall whether I played the Nintendo 64 version, but melee takes an abundant amount of skill to master. I recall going to a friends house one day and seen the Nintendo 64 for the first time and I never even heard of it. Speaks volumes on Nintendos marketing ability even to this day. And I was an avid gamer since I was five. And I'm certain the system has been out for a while because he had plenty of games.
