Do you think it is real or fake?

idk, while I do find it very much possible that we'll get other DLC characters besides Mewtwo, I'm rather skeptical as to Rayman's inclusion. Why Rayman? Why not like, a Rhythm Heaven character or something? I don't think that this is the first time somethings been leaked and turned out to be false for Smash.

Ubisoft is one of the few 3rd parties to actually work closely with Nintendo nowadays, and Rayman Legends was an exclusive first. While Rayman doesn't seem to be very important, he seems justified as a bonus character imo. And I don't know, but he seems to have good moveset potential. Probably going to surprise me like Pacman did (didn't like him before either)
Except Ubisoft has cut ties with Nintendo after claiming that their M-rated titles don't sell well on the Wii U, even though Zombi U sold more than their gimped ports. Let's not forget that Ubisoft left consumers a bad taste on their mouths by delaying the Wii U version of Watch_Dogs and giving us the glitch mess known as Assassin's Creed Unity. Plus, Rayman isn't a third party character you would call as a "big deal" according to Sakurai, because he isn't as iconic as Pac-Man, Snake, Mega Man, and Sonic, having to not debut during the golden age of gaming. The only third-parties from that era, who are iconic, are Bomberman and Simon Belmont, who Snake has already taken the spot as a Konami rep, and Ryu and Scorpion, who Sakurai already ruled out characters that originated from traditional fighting games. So yeah, I'm calling this leak a fake, followed by the Mewtwo render not matching the actual model we've seen from the 50-Fact Extravaganza.

So, apparently there was a new character leak on 4chan just a few hours ago which looks very, very convincing to me, especially because it also provides Mewtwo's CSS icon. Spoilers, of course:

Thoughts? :0
Please no.

I don't dislike Rayman, but we have enough platformer characters whose movesets are have basically nothing to do with their own games. I'd much rather prefer DLC be saved for characters that don't see a lot of action in their home series, or at least could make for unique movesets, like Viridi, Darunia, or (and this is a real stretch) Captain Toad.

You should play the Rayman games, they're pretty fun.

But really how can you say this without any single footage of the character LOL

Well it looks like this leak is going the way of the ESRB leak, by distributing a video before getting taken down, which means the leak is real, and we're getting Rayman. This means Sakurai broke his rule of only allowing 3 third-party guests that he established back in 2006.

Or you know, a DK rep like Dixie or K. Rool.

Dixie would almost certainly be a Diddy clone that uses her hair to grab and recover.

K. Rool could be nice, but they'd have to make sure he isn't just Dedede without a hammer or a reskinned DK.

Well, that was something. Wow.
Well that's a relief; there's still hope for a Rhythm Heaven rep taking the second slot from the Wii U CSS.

Dixie would almost certainly be a Diddy clone that uses her hair to grab and recover.
Jigglypuff share similar A moves to Kirby, but does that make her a clone? Plus other non-clone characters share similar animation moves from other characters.

K. Rool could be nice, but they'd have to make sure he isn't just Dedede without a hammer or a reskinned DK.
Clearly you have no seen him in action from the Donkey Kong games he's appeared in. He's got a large set of tools that could potentially make him unique such as his Blunderbuss.

But Jigglypuff isn't just Kirby with long hair. Sure, they look similar, but Diddy and Dixie are basically the exact same aside from gender and recovery ability.

As does Dark Pit, who could have used things like his staff, violet palm, and the EZ Cannon, but he was a clone.

I'm not saying K. Rool couldn't be a non-clone, just that it seems unfortunately likely to me. I'd love it if they had him and made him unique.

Do omega stages count as final destination for Wii U?
Because in my records, it says that my most played stage is Final Destination yet I spent most of my time in Halberd or the Mega Man stage in their omega forms.

And in the 3DS version, I played Mute City and the Game Boy stage in omega form a bunch of times and it said my most played stage is Mute City, not Final Destination. Just wondering if it was a Wii U thing.

If I remember the original statement when they announced omega stages, they said they were the final destination equal of normal stages. So instead of having the same FD stage, you could get a different type of scenery when having your 'For Glory' matches. Long story short; yes, they do count.

2/17/15 EDIT: So this is something. I dove into my Smash 4's WiiU Disk Data along with patch stuff and I found some music that is unused (and going to be used later) like the Miiverse stage that is coming and guess what song I found with it that is connected to the temp. data.


Nintendo actually remembered this game. It makes me happy inside.

This is somewhat old news, but yes, this music will be played on the Miiverse stage, including the Tomodachi Life and Find Mii music from the 3DS version. The music is also quite fitting for the stage's theme, due to the nicely drawn Miiverse posts.

I didn't know about the miiverse stage or anything about it til recently, so that is nice. I am curious about the other rumors of a possible Doctor Mario stage. I would be nice for him to have one since the uncompleted files are there.

Did they make the CPUs better or is it just that I haven't fought them in a while?

Also I still don't know any combos with Robin or Lucina ;_;

On which version, I've noticed on the WiiU version that yeah, there has been some character and CPU tweaking in the patches. 3DS is really present with (5-6 patches by now) all the updates.

The combos I know with Lucina are running slash attacks; time your running + A to keep juggling the opponent, then you have your grab, throw down and then up air to launch them up and off the stage. You also have your classic, double jump and then counter when your foe tries to launch you up with an air up. Just some ideas.

I don't play Robin as much as I should.

Yeah, it has over 5 patches now. Playing on rank 5 CPU is actually a good challenge now. :3

Here's an interesting find regarding the Japanese's wants for Smash DLC: https://sourcegaming.wordpress.com/2015/02/19/perception-of-smash-dlc-in-japan/


Apparently, Lucas is a more popular request in Japan than Wolf in the U.S. when it comes to cut veterans, despite Mother 3 not being well-loved in its own country.

So this morning, I was playing with my Peach Amiibo and they must of buffed them as well. She is level 50, and I put her against 5 Lv.9 Reds on Omega Mushroom Kingdom U. These characters were her opponents.

Mario = Balance
Bowser = Raw Power
Pikachu = Range/Speed
Link = Power/Range
Kirby = That Wildcard

After one, seven minute Smash, my Peach Amiibo 'Lylia' had ranked up 49 KOs and 4 Falls. That is a 45/4 ratio and that is amazing. Only Pikachu [1], Bowser [2], and Link [1] were able to get KOs on her because of the timing. Overall, it was amazing to watch and my question is, have you trained and fed your amiibo(s) and then put them in a situation like this out of curiosity, just to see them win or lose? What was your results?
