Adam, of course Zelda will take her BoTW design! That's just crazy to think she wouldn't. :P

Hmm....guess that explains why the new Smash was coming out so soon: It's a re-release of about everything that was in the series (All fighters that were playable throughout the series, as well as the stages....I think). My thoughts on it:

 

-I noticed the damage percentages now add tenths to the number (like 41.4% instead of 41% for example).

-Nice to see some additions to characters like the Robins having a durability gauge for their weapons shown on the HUD.

-Ridley's now playable?!

-Like the new Final Smashes (like DK's and Fox's) as well as the new details to old Final Smashes (Fiora appears in Shulk's Final Smash while Proto Man & Bass appear in Mega Man's Final Smash).

 

Things I didn't like about what was shown....

 

-BOMBERMAN CONFIRMED....as an Assist Trophy (I was hoping he would be playable. His presence as an Assist Trophy is bittersweet considering that his character designer just passed away yesterday).

 

I wonder which new characters will be revealed between now and the game's release in December.

Removed a spoiler for an unrelated game that would've been impossible to warn about without spoiling said game.

Also returning: David Hayter. So that's nice.

I like seeing Ridley clapping for the winner.

I love Zelda's LBW/ LttP design. It's super cute. BotW Zelda is good too, but this was a nice surprise. Plus, with echo alts or w/e we might still get BotW Zelda.

But can we talk about how dead Sakurai looked inside? Poor guy. Even in the treehouse stream he pretty much said, "I wanna be done with this shit so I can move on." in so many words.

I recall he said that one of the Smash games would be the last one, now i don't know which one (Brawl? I'm actually leaning on Melee). Now he's pretty much forced to make more Smash games given how immensely popular they are, specially in sales.

 

I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up giving the reins of the franchise to someone else, so that he can make different games.

I really don't understand the logic. If he's so miserable, just pass it along to someone else who actually wants to do it. I'm definitely grateful and everything, but still.

This defiantly looks like the Ultimate version of Smash Brothers. Wasn't expecting them to say that EVERY character in Smash history will join the fray. This actually got me excited. Here are some of my thoughts in no organized fashion.

 

Hope the online play is good.

I can see it now, advance pro advice talking about what combos to do down to the .1%.

I'm guessing the gameplay will be very similar, if not identical to Smash 4. (In terms of speed and mechanics)

I noticed Toad was out when Peach grabbed and threw her opponents. Maybe Toad will do other things than be a meat shield. Maybe.

I wonder if they will allow Daisy to float like Peach.

Splatoon has a neat mechanic. Gosh, 8 player Splatoon. It's like playing Splatoon without playing Splatoon. Same could be said about all of the Pokémon.

It is nice that Pokémon Trainer's Pokemon don' t get weaker as they stay in battle.

Looks like they are giving Palutena alternating b-attacks. This makes me think that they won't have custom b-moves in this on like the previous Smash game.

Omega and now Battle Field versions for every stage. Might as well get rid of Battle Field and Final Destination.

Liked the direction they are going with the Final Smashes.

It is interesting how there will be some differences in 1v1 vs multiplayer battles. Slow motion for powerful hits in 1v1, Ryu always facing his opponent in 1v1, characters doing more damage in 1v1. Nice details.

LOL, they used A Link Between Worlds Zelda. I'm neutral with this, but it did catch me by surprise as I was thinking they might use the Hyrule Warriors version of her. Wouldn't it be cool if Zelda's alternate outfits where versions of her from other Zelda games.

Will Zelda have her down-b from Melee and Brawl or Smash 4? I'm leaning more towards Smash 4.

I learned something new about Pikachu. How about that. It is cool they included Pikachu Libre as an alternate costume.

It is sad to see Bomberman as an assist trophy, but at least he is in the game. His attacks look powerful.

That is awesome how you can KO assist trophies. Sakura didn't mention it, but it would be awesome of you KO Pokémon as well.

Ridley as a playable character, and the community said about time. I don't know about you, but it looks like Ridley has a kill move that doesn't require you to knock an opponent off screen. Look at 24:20 of the video. He hits Link, Link collapse, then he vanishes. If my observation is correct, Ridley will have a very unique kill move. I bet characters would have to be at a high percentage for it to kill, like over 100%. Maybe it is a troll and that was Stamina Mode.

Nice new techniques for competitive Smash. I doubt there will be wavedashing and l-canceling here.

Like all of the small character details including gunfire sounds for the alt costumes of Bayonetta and the voice changes for the alt costumes of Ike.

Not sure how I feel about Link having remote bombs gameplay wise. I like bombs to explode on contact, but we do have two other Links for that. This will make BoW Link more unique. I wonder if BoW Link will have the gale boomerang.

Love how there seems to be a troll smash ball. Characters with ranged attacks can take advantage of it.

Nice touch adding extra characters to Mega Man's and Shulk's final smashes. 

Oh snap, it is compatible with all of the amibos. Gotta buy them all. That was sarcasm.

It's compatible with the gamecube controller! 

 

This may be odd, but I'm actually hopping they add in a Subspace Emissary type adventure mode in the game.

 

Overall, this game is going to be a hit, both party and competitive will be on people's play list for years to come.

I won't echo (no pun intended) what everyone else has said, so I'll add an observation that hasn't been mentioned yet:

Seems they toned down Zero Suit Samus' sexualisation, which is a good thing imo. More natural makeup and smaller titties. I was never a fan of her pornstar look. :shrug:

I didn't get a good look but I hope they removed or at least toned down her heels as well.

I'm kinda neutral on the announcement. It's awesome that Ridley is finally playable as well as all of the missing characters returning, (Pichu is one of the ones I missed the most despite everyone hating him). However, this doesn't leave a lot of room for new and unique characters from the looks of it with there being 70ish fighters already in now? Hoping for some more new stages and content at least.

 

Zelda's design also comes off as a bit odd. Maybe I'm just used to how young she looked in ALBW, but it is hard for me to gauge which age range she even is. On the plus side,OoT Ganondorf is great, especially with the sword actually being in his moveset finally. If only they got rid of that cancerous up tilt already.

 

The engine just from watching the gameplay also seems kinda strange. Like you hit someone hard and they go a certain speed, then abruptly stop instead of slowing down and then stopping like in previous games. The offscreen also seems very small and hard to gauge how far someone is off the stage. Could just be me of course.

 

With that said, this will probably be something I get someday, just I'm still Switchless due to all of the ports and not really in a rush to get one for this and Super Mario Odyssey.

Aaaand, they didn't. Probably made them even bigger/ higher actually.

That could just be a quirk in the engine, or something they haven't fine tuned yet.

 

And as far as Zelda goes, yeah, I also have trouble gauging her age wise, but it looks like they tried to take her young form, and make her look slightly older? idk. I mean really, she's been 'young' in every game (under, or around 20-ish?). This is not confirmed, but she always appears to be quite young, and in BotW she is said to be 17, but looks like an "adult" so, thanks to Japan's unique standards, it's anyone's guess to how old she really is :P.

 

On a whole, this is the first time I've felt an echo of hype for a Smash game. I don't know why, but Sm4sh just never gelled with me. I was there for the Brawl Hype though. This probably won't equal that, more so because it is less time between announcement, and release, but I am at the very least, excited for this. :D

Hmm....I wonder if they're going to include every stage from the series? Right now, there seems to be almost 70 stages confirmed so far. I also wonder which new characters will be announced and what modes Ultimate will have.

 

Also, Xander Mobus confirmed to be returning as announcer.

 

I hope they bring back Snake's Codec Calls for Shadow Moses Island. It will be interesting to hear what Otacon, Mei-Ling, and Colonel have to say about Pichu, Young Link, and Smash 4's newcomers. I'm still surprised they're bringing back EVERYONE that's been playable in the series.
