Wait, does Roy have the same final Smash as Marth and Lucina?

If he does, we're gonna have another triple landmaster situation.

Does anybody else feel that Ryu and Roy are coming out tomorrow along with Lucas? It looks to me that they're pretty much done making them.

If that's the case i'm downloading Ryu first.

I don't even play Smash, but this is pretty awesome:

I found Ryu's theme for this game on Youtube, the only thing that comes to mind is "Professor Layton and the Street fighting tournament"

It's something. It's not much but hey Zero got in the game somehow.

A real pity it's going to be for Swordfighter, which is the worst of the Mii characters.

As for the leak drama I think it'll blow over. I'm happy as a clam Roy's back and Ryu's going to make a wonderful punching bag for my mains.

So when are those Mewtwo, Lucas, Roy and Ryu amiibo coming?

I get the feeling that Ryu's amiibo will be relatively easy to find, third party characters usually are.

Their Amiibo molds were stolen.

I wonder how many DLC fighters we will get? We have Mewtwo, Lucas, Ryu and Roy. I think we might have room for two-three more.

Wait, seriously?!

I doubt it. He might have something that more references Binding Blade.

Actually hi's final smash trophy basically confirms that it is the same.

Then no amiibos could be made!

Next thing you'll be telling me that they'll be kidnapping amiibo designers.

Oh god don't let either of those be a real thing.

Yeah, I didn't check ssbwiki until after I had posted...

But it looks totally different from Marth and Lucina's version!

So the Smash Direct just happened. The leak wasn't a total spoiler for the Direct though.

The biggest ones being a dated Tourney mode and Smash replay uploads to youtube. Defintley helps people who want to show thier skill but don't have capture devices to do so.

And new amiibo. Which is always cool if you could find them.

And all the DLC is available today.

RIP servers. At least they covered their asses by warning of that lol.

I was right, by the way. Roy's Final Smash may be Critical Hit, but it's completely different from Marth and Lucina's. It's a close-range attack, and slows time down when used.

I also read that Hyrule Castle and Peach's castle from the n64 game are in development. Wohoo!

Oh, so they didn't puss out like with Doc and they actually adjusted his moveset visually. Good job.
Also, his shield breaker is still the slash? Neat.

Did they change any of Roy's normal moves? It is hard to tell from accounts I've read and shitty videos of that one stream, since I can't get to roy right now.

I don't know from a technical standpoint. I just see some visual differences, is all.

Those bastards made Ryu exactly like if he was in a SF game. Assholes :lol
You can even Focus Attack Dash Cancel! :lol

awesome. I'll definitely be picking up Ryu when I finally get this game!

Does that mean he can do more stuff then regular smash characters or just only does it in a different way?

You should get it ASAP. The hype train isn't stopping anytime soon and the game is fantastic and has a ton of content.

As great as all this new stuff is holy crap £20 is a lot more than I expected it was gonna cost :/

His attacks mildly change depending on whether or not you tap the attack (Light) or hold it down (Heavy)
This applies to his normals, his tilts and his hadoken, giving him a lot more variety. In addition, you can input Quarter circle forward+A (Normal) for an improved Hadoken, half circle forward+A (Normal) For his red Hadoken, and DP (forward, down, down-forward)+A for a stronger Shoryuken.
They want to make him combo oriented, so getting things down with him might be a little more difficult than I thought.

Yeah. I wish they kept Mewtwo's pricing of $2.99 for everyone.

Huh? I don't know what you're talking about. When I got Mewtwo, I had to pay $3.99, same as everyone has to for Lucas and Roy. (Ryu has a Stage with him, so the $5.99 price is expected)

Guess I misremembered. *Shrugs*

Ryu came out today!?

Along with Roy and Lucas, with two stages (one included with Ryu) and a ton of Mii outfits

I was just gonna download Lucas tomorrow, well i'm not sure i'll have enough for him anymore when i download .EXE's costume and the Street fighter content. :lol

So if I wanted to get all 3 for both versions...

Ugh.

Maybe I'll just do one.

Ryu and Lucas are fun, Roy is just Roy. He ain't my boy.

Ryu will take some getting used to, Lucas was great to use, and Roy's okay- basically my summary after playing as the three of them.

You know what we should do? Themed smashes like Smosh Games. Like Fire Emblem smash game, female characters only, 1st gen only etc

I'd be down for themed matches like that.
We could have 64, Melee, Brawl, and 4 specials (Only characters introduced in those games, etc).
It sounds like fun!

Who wants to be a part of that in an hour? ^_^

(I still have to fold laundry so that's why I say in an hour XD)

I'm game~

So my brother downloaded Roy as soon as he got home. :lol He went to town on me in a replay i sent to everybody on my friend list. He celebrated that hi's melee main was back and that he's still good as him. :lol I got trashed.

I'd be down for that.

So what should be our categories tonight? :)

Third parties?

That could work as one. I'm gonna write a bunch of different categories when j finish folding XD
