Super Smash Bros. Wii U

Since Sakurai confirmed that he will be making this game after he's done with Kid Icarus: Uprising, guess we might as well make a topic about it to discuss it.

Here's Sakurai's interview on IGN about the possibility of adding a Capcom character:

And here's another interview (but it's more about the 3DS version):

Of course, the most exciting thing fans would want to talk about is which of their favorite characters are gonna make it in. I hope for Little Mac, Mega Man, Travis Touchdown, and Simon Belmont.

And does anybody got a feeling that a Koei Tecmo character might make it in too?

Funny, I seem to remember Brawl being 'the last game in the series'. 😛
Not that I'm complaining. I liked Brawl, despite all the complaints about it, so I'll definitely be looking forward to this one.
I'd say Megaman and Zero for Capcom cameos. =D

Could care less about the characters, tbh. All I want is for the game to be faster paced and for the online to not be a laggy piece of shit, like it was in Brawl.

So the speed it was in melee? Think I only managed to have around six online matches before the lag got tiresome.

Im guessing that no one from the Capcom vs games will be in this one.

Yeah, melee speed.

What makes you say that?

Feels unlikely that theyll re-use a popular Capcom character that have already been in several fighting games for SSB.

Like using Ryu, beside extra movement it will play out like he is in SF or MvC.

Smash Bros. is much different from Capcom fighting games, so they would still have to play in Smash Bros. style. It doesn't matter what fighting games they were previously in.

I'd say it needs Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars (screw Square Enix). Hopefully more Fire Emblem and Earthbound.

I never had a problem with online play. Must be cuz I'm in Australia. 😬
The main fix I want is the coop adventure issues, like the camera and bias towards player 1.

I'd like to see Mike Jones as a playable character and yes, he'd be different from Ness.

Something with Giygas or Mewtwo, either as decent playable characters or bosses.

What were the other issues brought up in Brawls release?

Mega Man - while cool - would probably play a lot like a Samus meets Kirby combo. Even though I like him best out of the Capcom characters (along with Street Fighter characters), I wouldn't want to repeat gameplay. If they can make his style completely different from Samus, then I'd probably be all for him.

I think Viewtiful Joe would fit in well in the game.

Yeah, I really hate when the AI is always ganging up on me.

Mega Man definitely wouldn't play like Samus or Kirby. The only thing he has in common with Samus is his chargeable arm-cannon (which can be pulled off differently) while with Kirby, it's just his copy abilities (which is also very different). Mega Man will no doubt be a unique character with his own kind of fighting style.

Indeed. In fact, you're the one who's screwing it up for everyone else. lol

You jest...but it's probably true. 😐

I'd like to see Giygas/the Devil machine as a stage where if you loose, you get eaten by Giygas.

I doubt that Australia is messing up everyone's wii net play. However, it would be nice if the whole thing worked worldwide, rather than in just a few areas. 😬

"Wii U"

Sounds like what your mom or girlfriend says when you fert.

I hope they change the label.

It pretty much is.

Mark my words...any game that has an Aussie with a bunch of western players will experience more lag than if the Aussie was not playing. There's no way around that.

Lots of online games (that are played by a large amount of people) allow for regional "servers" to prevent this lag time B.S. If you lose just .05 seconds of lag time in a game, that could be the difference between winning or losing.

Mario Kart wii had no lag as far as I'm aware. And I was playing against people from everywhere - Every continent but Antarctica 😛
Maybe they felt it but I didn't. That would explain why I was playing so well. XD
Regional servers would be a godsend. Imagine how much easier it would be to establish tourneys and stuff. 😄
