Welcome to our (kinda) live Smash Bros direct! This post will contain the live stream as soon as it goes up. You’ll find an extensive write-up below right after the Direct has ended! No lazy vagueness or inaccuracies like our competitors use to do.
I’ll try to do live updates, but I can’t promise anything seeing as I want to follow the Direct myself and I don’t have my second screen with me. I’ll be with you every minute though and you are free to discuss things in the comments!
The stream starts 3 pm Pacific – 6 pm Eastern – 11 pm UK time – 12 am Central European time and 7 am for our Japanese visitors. See you then!

Night Slash is Greninja’s Final Smash
I’ll make a Gif if it!
I called Charizard X for WiiU and Charizard Y for 3ds and Govnah said “other way around” XD
can’t wait to prove Govnah wrong again, when Zygarde gets a mega instead of a form like he believes XD
i said that in the very beginiing XD
THOSE POKEMON I SAID ARE REAL AND I HAVE PROOF

they screwed up deoxys >:(
LOLOL I JUST NOTICED THAT
I believed you the first time 😉
As everyone should know Smash Bros. 3DS comes out around the Summer time and Smash Bros. Wii U releases in the Winter time! Which version are you all getting? (I think I might end up getting both!)
I’m still unhappy that both game have the same roster. So pretty much we will know all of smash wii u’s secret characters before the wii u version in summer 🙁
Not necessarily. Mario Kart Wii U has a larger roster than it’s 3DS version. True, it’s a sequel of sorts but still
no the direct person literally said they will have the same roster
Dammit
3DS for me. Don’t have a Wii U, though a Gale of Darkness sequel might change that
Can’t believe I’m saying this……But I might main Greninja in smash XDDD
i know i will XD
Yayah!!!!!!!!!!!

Earthen, didn’t you speculate earlier that maybe you could ride Skiddo/Gogoat? Looks like you were right lol
I did
I AM A ORACLE!!!
Sooooooo 30 comments til Top 16. Yayah!
the bandwagoning is REAL.
Where was all this Greninja love before?
Probably when Protean was discovered
*Smash
Ah. Well you can’t blame people, it looks amazing!
Aside from the scene on the tree, its gameplay bored me.
“Hidden in the shadows”
You knew I loved Greninja before all this shit. xD
Greninja in pokemon X/Y Wi-fi is boring and cookie cutter as F***.
But Greninja in smash is a whole different story XDDDDD
that wont stop me from using it!
I actually think the opposite.
Not with more popular characters around like Mega Man and Charizard. Which is a good thing imo.
That’s why if I use common Pokemon, I make sure they’re shiny, to somewhat stand out xD Like my Talonflame and Greninja. Probably the most common Pokemon in wifi battling this gen.
Shiny Greninja is pretty common 😛
It’s a sad day when shinies become common XD
But yeah, you’re right.
That’s why I go hard for finding shinies, cause they stand out and are unique. But I agree with Regi below, shiny greninja is pretty common lol. I don’t ever see shiny talonflame though, maybe because its not drastically different.
Yeah, thinking about it, Shiny Greninja is quite common lol
Sooooo Mega Lucario has been confirmed as Lucario’s Final Smash anddddddd ONCE MORE, Mega Charizard X has been confirmed as Charizard’s Final Smash.
Curse them for not showing the Mega evo animation!
IKR!?!?!?!?
will anyone play Male Wii Fit Trainer……nah
Star.
Star Bits is a move for Rosalina. LMAO XDDDDDDDD
nobody remebers slip counter 🙁
So Rosalina will play Wii Fit Trainer male.
And anyone else notice he had a REALLY tight crotch?
…
They showed his legs and moved up. I thought it was female at first.
……….
I was paying attention to ZSS 😉
xD I was, maybe, a lot, a little wowed.
She looks hotter than in Brawl ……. XDDDD
I noticed that.
Do ya think Nintendo, maybe, made her more, um, well, appealing in this game? Cause I definitely noticed some differences 😉
I hope so 😉
xD
Full HD can do wonders 😉
I will!
Out of all the fighters I saw, Rosalina enticed me the most XD
I don’t know what game she’s from.. but her and the star look reaaaaly cool
Wrow.
is that a game… or did you mean to say Wow cause I don’t know what game she’s from XD
lmfao… is she from Mario?
XD I meant, like, a cat sound (xD), and she’s from Super Mario Galaxy, yeah.
Good to know I’m not the only one XD
lmfao!!!
I might use little mac just to use the SLIP counter XD
Definitely doing that!
Let’s be real. We all know why Zero Suit Samus was made her own character. Oh, btw. This image is hilarious, especially because it’ll blow right over the heads of some. But it’s okay. xD
http://www.smashbros.com/images/character/zerosuit_samus/screen-8.jpg
*Keep Staring at ZSS 😉
Ok, I’m sure they did some ENHANCING on her.
They sure spent a lot of time on HD graphics to make sure the GAMEPLAY was great.
They did. It made the 3DS version look so pixelated and crappy. Still plan to buy it though XD
Sad but true, already put aside some cash for the game
Oh, It will be. She is the trainer of some amazing Jigglypuffs.
What item is that?
Ummmmmm Bunny Ears. Or eggs 😉 If ya get what I mean.
Easter bunny?
Nvr mind.
See what I mean? 😛
Ah, yes.
@thegreatcarbinkle, sorry, I have to go for dinner. I can talk strats now for a few mins if you;d like. I have to go soon though.
are you still here?
Did Eevee ever evolve to attack in any of the smash games? Or does it just attack as an Eevee
Attacked as Eevee, I guess?
🙁 was hoping for a Sylveon appearance.
No. Lol. It just hopped to the side.
LOL!!
Well… guess i’ll live with Dedenne/Xerneas being the only fairies in the game lol. Was hoping for jigglypuff, sylveon or diancie.
I could see Diancie definitely.
Diamond Storm all over the stage 🙂
I was going to comment that if you didn’t. XD
There was no Eevee… Hmmmmm…. You bring up a good point.
Yus there was
Really? Well then.
Yup. It was when they were going over the pokeballs I think. It was for a split second.
No, in the previous games.
Oh! But yeah. I got one in Brawl last time I played.
Oh, ok.
ahh okay, I never played any Smash games before.
I’m hoping (and assuming) Eevee’s attack in Smash Bros 4 will be similar to the way Clefairy and Togepi attack using Metronome, as in randomness.
Eevee could pop out of the Pokéball and use Tackle (the move it seems to be using in the Direct) or it could evolve as soon as it pops out of the Pokéball and use a move based on the type it evolved into (Flamethrower if Flareon, Leaf Blade if Leafeon, Fairy Wind if Sylveon, etc.). It could have a possible of 9 different attacks, one for each Eeveelution plus Eevee itself.
I’d honestly, LOVE something like that. It fits Eevee perfectly!
I think you guys need to go to the bathroom…
vvvvvvvv
Wut. Anywayz, how’d you think of the Direct?
I hate the 3DS graphics for Smash Bros. They could’ve probably have been better, but it reminds me of a fancy GBA game. Greninja sold it for me though!
I heard them say gameplay could change or something. I wonder if that only meant for the Wii-U version or the 3DS as well, because they need to get those graphics together before summer hits lol.
What’s the deal with the black outline around the characters? It looks awful. I realize limitations cause issues but fuck. Look at XY.
You can take them away you know.
What.
The outlines are customizable. You don’t need them 😉
Praise The Lord.
My hype levels are increasingly to lethal levels now. LETHAL LEVELS. LIKE SCREW-SCHOOL-I-GOT-SMASH-BROS-TO-PLAY LETHAL.
Not really. That’ll happen when the game comes out XD
I REALLY need to pre order this. Don’t know when it’ll happen though.
I’m going to call up GameStop tomorrow and see if they are accepting pre-orders.
60 FPS though, that surprised me delightfully! I will combine that with little to no outlines on characters 😀
I’m glad. I really think it’ll be good no matter what. My sister and I want Mario Kart 8. If we get a Wii U ‘ll definitely get this.
Any ideas what the 3DS Wii U game link would do?
I have no idea but I’m buying both either way XD
Maybe skins are unlockables like trophies and so you can get exclusive skins to wii U/DS So it allows you to get them
Greninja…
honestly never saw that coming
Well he IS a ninja
thats what sheik is for
I AM SO HAPPY
So who’s getting it on ds?
I upvoted my “me”!
That’s what I’ll be buying first! XD
Me!
Me!
me like everyone else on the site
supposley Mega man final smash the other Mega mans are costumes
I don’t know if you heard before but you won’t have to breed me that Foongus heavy
ahhh sweeet. did maple finally give you 1?
No. He quit competitive battling. 🙁
whoa, wait, who did?
Wyvern.
-_- how are me and him going to team up in the tourny then lol
Dunno. Cant throw him in a wifi trade and clone him can you?
:(( well if he quit then I’ll see if I can get my BFF Natu to team up with me
There’s always something positive!
Ask him that.
I’m tired of being the one who loses so easily. I have a whole PC box full of EV trained pokemon where they don’t work….
I understand how that is. I’m not very good either but it’s still fun.
I just want to be noticed as a good battler…. I don’t care about tournemant prizes I just want to be recognised as an elite battler someone who gives a challenge
Watch some Pokétubers. *ahem* ShadyPenguin <3 You see your mistakes.
I already do, I have tried everything….
I can’t comprehend why….
Hm… I would have to see your pokes…
Fine one last battle
Okay! 😀
Go to your partner, Wyv. Practice makes perfect. And so does knowledge.

My comment.
My review of SSB4:
0/10 No Delphox
thank u
Delphox is my fav starter
I think it’ll be added. I called Greninja right. Lol.
DELPHOX WOULD DHAVE BEEN AMAZING FOR A RANGED CHARACTER
Don’t count it out yet! 29 apparently isn’t enough!
Still calling Mewtwo. Focusing on Pkmn this time around.
Falcon PAWNCH needs to be added yet
OH YES PLEAAASSSEEEEE HE AND GRENINJA ARE MY FAVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Amen!
This
Sceptile even better
Hope they don’t mess it up again! Delphox has so much potential
