Super Smash Bros. Nintendo 3ds/Wii U

[Just]

Say that in front of my face, I'll wipe the floor with you with Marth  ( buying the 3DS ver )

Come at me Winds. I'm not afraid of Marth. I count it as free win most of the time. c:

But eh, 3DS version... can't say for sure. I'm better on gamecube controllers in SSB.

But eh, 3DS version... can't say for sure. I'm better on gamecube controllers in SSB.

Don't worry Just I understand. I love dat Gamecube controller as well because of that melee love. We even getting to use Gamecube controlers for the new Wii U Smash. Dat love. But Don't let that bring you down for buying a 3DS one.

Speaking of 3DS did people like that new game mode? I know I did especially if you can play online in that mode.

Well the problem for me about the gamecube controller is that you have to buy an adapter for it. Yeah sure it comes in a bundle deal, but just meh, that's just more stuff you have to buy to play and forget playing with other people on gamecube controllers unless they buy one themselves. That's why I'm gravitating towards the 3DS version, they say it's controls are like the gamecube controller already so I have no issues with that.

[Just]

@Sandy-- They're going to be selling it for $20. That's not a bad deal. Anyway, they're also going to be selling a Super Smash Bros Wii U Bundle with the Wii U, the Adapter, and the game. So, that's still pretty solid.

$20 on an adapter that would benefit a lot of people because we all have our Gamecube controllers is fantastic! (at least my friends do)

I still would try your hardest to get both. Trust me it be worth it. Or you can just use the pro controler for the wii u version or just get the 3ds version your choice.

Which save $10 just doing that. So lets see.

Assuming you don't have ether console. Well US price anyway.
2DS is $130
3DS is $160
3DSXL is $200
Wii U 8GB is $250
Wii U 32GB is $300

Smash Bundle with everything but Wii U itself and 1 gamecube controler is $100 (worth it for the smash logo on controler alone)

Wii U game is $60
2-3DS Version is $50

So lets see that is:
2DS + Game is: $170
3DS + Game is $210
3DSXL + Game is $240
Wii U 8 GB + Game is $310
Wii U 8 GB  + Game Bundle is $350 (Saves $10)
Wii U 32 GB + Game is $360
Wii U 32 GB + Game Bundle is $400 (Saves $10)

Everything = $480 - $640 dollars not counting tax or extra controllers depending on your options.

So I need about $500 to get it all since I have a 3ds already. Unless I want to get 4 controlers. Which after that would put it to $600 x.x maybe more counting taxes

Wii U is $300

Wait, what?  Wii U is $300 is the US? O_o  It's only $250 up here in Canada, and that's for bundles that include games.  I'm surprised...  Something is actually cheaper in Canada than the US.  Still, I already know I'm going to have enough money for it if my dad's boss continues to be awesome.  (He gives me $500 each year for getting honours or equivalent, so he's kinda really awesome.)  So, I'm probably going to buy both, but the 3DS version comes first. 

I'm probably going to main the Mii Fighter since I'm a sucker for customizable characters.  For actual characters in-game, I'm excited for the return of Ike, and Charizard with its X Mega Evolution.  I don't really have any specific stages I'm excited for, as I tend to end up just playing custom ones.  Speaking of custom maps, I hope they extend the options for that.  I really didn't like how limited it was in Brawl.  Maybe a larger grid, as well.  Or just flat out remove the grid, it gets quite annoying at times.  I probably spent just as much, if not more, time making maps as I did actually fighting on them, so I'd love to see that get improvements.

its a shame the same prices dont apply to everywhere around the world.

  Technically there is 1 game that it comes with. But usually it's part of a bundle. I believe right now there is a Wind Waker HD bundle for the same price right now so yea. It'll comes with a game. If you wanted say Mario Kart 8 bundle though you would have to pay a little bit more. I would assume that Smash would get a Gamestop bundle eventually but be priced by how Mario Kart 8 is now... Hopefully it's a little bit cheaper. Oh and it's for the 32 GB version of the Wii U because why would you even buy the one with less GB's... Hmm going to edit my priceing post

Ding Ding Ding, the time has come for everyone who's interested in Smash Bros!

Tomorrow is the MLG Anaheim Smash Tournament Championships (As well as other games, but screw the other games, Smash is the only thing that matters there.)

Below the following three comments, there will be a spoiler button that will reveal the whole schedule and the URL link for a place to watch the tournament at.
Please do note that the times are in Pacific Time (PT). If you wish to figure out the European Time, Asiatic time, or the North American time other than Pacific so that you can see at what time it'll be streamed at your location, please do so by using Google. I will not provide a time that is specific for any of you.

Edit: Sorry I couldn't continue the rest of the who won and who lost matches. I ended up wounding myself and almost passing out on the couch-- and I felt sick for the rest of the day to actually be able to record the matches. Tomorrow i'll be slightly busy as well... so if you still want to watch however, I really suggest you do. Hungrybox vs Armada is a match I really hope you go and watch. Young Link Control.

Day 1 of the tournament is over. Day 2 begins tomorrow at the times provided by my previous post.
Additionally, at this exact moment that I posted this reply to this thread, the East Coast vs West Coast matches are occurring to which I'll put up the result of which side won.

Anyway, I'm aware that perhaps some of you may not care and are only here to talk about SSB Wii U version-- but I hope that you realize that we may be seeing Super Smash Bros become a huge game in ESports, and already the tournaments are having large money sums for a Nintendo game. (Basically witnessing history) If Wii U's version lives up to Melee standards, without a doubt we'll have an even larger scene. Which is amazing for both Nintendo and the game franchise.

Edit: West Coast beats East Coast-- Largely due to Mang0 (one of the smash gods), defeating 3 of the other smash g0ds from East Coast.

I wonder how that Esport will do what with this game coming out on the 2/3DS as well?

[Just]

For games that are handheld, there usually isn't a large Esport scene. (Although supposed experts in the field of predicament believe that handheld games will become a large factor in the future due to the large amount of app games being created. Not to mention they have large player bases.) Personally though, I doubt there'll be a large competitive 2/3DS Wii U version, but it's always possible.

Today's Character Reveals For Smash Bros. I believe this brings the total now to 36 playable.
By far the best reveal yet.
