''Perhaps the "core" (ugh) gamers should stop reacting as though Nintendo have broke in to their house at Christmas and nicked all the toys from under the tree when they do release stuff for the "casuals" (ugh - again)''
Just know that Nintendo makes easy games to appeal to casuals. This is why Smash and Mario Kart are so popular with both casuals and fans, because the level of difficulty depends on the players.
Oh and we can use ''noob'' instead of if you want, I have no problem with either.
Tom, You really have to consider podcasts, even if it's one person reading what the article says. Your points are amazing and I really want to hear them everytime you post something but I really don't have the time to read long text walls.
@BertoFlyingFox
Do you really think companies are supposed to tell you every little secrets they have? They can't act like Normal humans because they're not a single person making the decisions. Unlike Normal humans, they have to account for competition, cost as well as a plethora of things. They also have to keep a good image about themselves so customers don't go bonkers over the smallest of things.
Marketing and PR are just that: People who are speaking for the company. Since Dan Adelman wasn't speaking about the plans of the company, he had to be removed from the press and social media. If he's PR, he can't be going about saying things he isn't supposed to say or that do not represent the company.

@noctowl How about I hope this game as little landing lag and has similar freedom of movement. Better yet, Sakurai could give us the option of different game speeds, with fast being similar to melee.
@AdmiralThrawn
''It’s nowhere near as complex as Super Smash Bros. Melee was and thankfully so, as there are plenty of regular players out there who will want to enjoy this too.''
Yup. Pretty much casuals here...By the way, a beginner can enjoy Melee as much as a skilled player, the problem is that this mentality limits the skill cap and makes it a game that the casual player will pick up for 5 minutes and then never play again. This is the only thing that Sakurai doesn't understand. The first people who are going to buy the games are the fans, then come the pros and if they're going around about how bad this game is, Nintendo better prepare some huge advertising campaign...
Don't misunderstand, I love Brawl and Project M and I'm not huge on melee, but the freedom of movement and the high skill cap is very noticeable and I understand when people understand that Brawl is a defensive game thus I really hope Sakurai doesn't make the same mistake again.
I couldn't really care less. These guys can be picky and be like ''OH DIS GAME DIS GAME IS BAD CUZ ITS 59 FPS'' all they want but it's still a great game.
Wait, so if it lists some gamestop locations, those are the ones having the event? I'm wondering since it's listing almost every local gamestop. I'll call later to see if they have it.
We went through trozei gameplay nobody cares about, ads nobody cares about, man baths nobody cares about, Pedophile pink suit guy nobody cares about, man getting buttslapped by kid who nobody cares about and anime nobody cares about for a 30 second teaser.
