Yeah, that really has no bearing on SSBB. Mainly because it’s Yuji Naka who is making Sonic a probable cast member…not Steinberg.
And Fox’s specials…
I hope that’s the case caus…wait a sec…O.o;…didn’t Yuji drop out of Sega or something not to long ago? One sec lemme take a quick look up on that…here…
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yuji_Naka Seeing as how I keep up with stuff like that since I’m a fan i heard about it some time ago. If i remember correctly he sort of left like…halfway through Sonic the hedgehog for the 360. Which means the actual 2 people who came up with the sonic character aren’t with sonic team or even sega for that matter. sigh but even though it’s just one person in the company saying it…it can be seen as ‘the company’ saying it…which is kind of sad.
Update to fox is teh hotness. So THAT’s what that lil thing is that’s been on his body in those shots. I thought that thing was a mine or something. Great to see they went to lengths to have an explanation as to where the reflector was coming from…As for the blaster… definitely wasn’t expecting that…so my guess is that when he shoots it he just keeps it out until he dies or something?
Edit: Just a thought…maybe this means Fox’s reflector doesn’t come out in i believe it’s what…1 frame in melee? maybe they have a small 3 frame animation where he has to actually quickly hit the reflector now?
First to say it:
Fox: AEGIS REFLECTOR!!!
(Wario needs a “PITIFUL SCUM!” taunt)
Good update, but what the hell, no mention of Fox Fire?
sorry guys STILL no ZSS…lol tomorrow we get a hype update guranteed
That strap is nice. I want one. Still the same attributes for his blaster. Maybe there’s hope for Falco. Maybe. And where in the hell is Ness?
i dissagree with young link… they should have the twilight princes adult link as he is now in the game and the wind waker young link cell shaded… both could be set up fairly different… and the ice climbers are an amazing set of charcter? this is the only game i’ve seen a person get to controll two characters as one i would hate to see this original idea go… game/watch is the og more og then mario… the orginal nintendo machine it just shouldn’t be let go… and why in the world should sheik go… granted she hasn’t appeared in any games since orcarina but man that is a great fighter she’s not a clone so she should stay…
i feel they should either let the clones go or give them original move sets… cause to be honest i hate to see a fighter lose any characters… it always leads to marvel like what if comments…
About the ONLY reason I’ll accept this update is because of the glorious ass shot from ZSS. God, I’d smother my face inbetween those buns so easily.
:3
Ughhhhh…
Anyway,I hope Fox is Top-Tier again.
What about Falco?They said that no clones would be in this game,so that means either Fox or Falco are going to be nerfed hard.
Yeah like I said before - If they must have 2 Links in the game I’d rather they use Wind Waker Link instead of Young Link because WW Link and Twilight Link are so different design-wise.
from the looks of the pictures, fox actually does take the reflector off of his hip when using it…that’s pretty hot…but I’d rather see some completely random shit like what the fuck is the deal with kirby’s final smash. i really want to know what happens and he puts you in the big ass pot that he had mario in.
I hope that the animation of him taking off his Reflector won’t be in one frame and cannot be cancelled. :bluu:
The Hulk better be in this game.
If they do have two Links and one is WW Link, I hope they use the WW items instead of the standard Zelda set.
Hookshot = Grapple hook, with the ability to steal items.
Bomb = Deku Leaf, with the ability to either blow projectiles back or float.
And etc. I haven’t played WW in a while so I forgot what other weapons could be used.
But as for someone’s mention of clones, the only real clones are Dr. Mario and Young Link. All the other characters that play similar to someone else can be altered to play different. I hope Zelda/Sheik makes the cut, but since she was based off Samus, I fear she is getting replaced, especially with Zero suit Samus in the mix.
Why? Those are the type of changes that would kill any competitive hope for the game. You would get zero versatility out of the move as all it would truly be good for is reflecting things. If they change anything about Fox’s shine, it should be the fact that it’s a hard spike – it should be meteor cancelable.
As a matter of fact, hard spikes should be lifted from the game entirely. Any attack that sends you downward should be meteor cancelable. What they should do is play around the hitstun of these moves more, so the timing varies more for different moves.

(this was a good update, more please)
if theres an animation for it, it probably wont be instant. That or it could be like vega and you can knock the reflector off fox, then any character could pick it up and start shining :looney:
who knows really…just have to wait for the game.
I already mentioned something like that in my last post…It probably will be like that
maaaybe take it from one frame to maybe 3-4? that should be ample time for him to reach for it
That would be pretty hot…
I actually think the complete opposite, the idea of a jump cancelable special move is rediculous and it being 1 frame instead of the normal 3-4 frames is equally as such. The only reason why shine spiking is so effective (un-DIable) is because Hal never foresaw Shining to be as offensively feasible as it was.
These changes wouldn’t kill the competitive way the game was played but merely change it. I find it hard to imagine vets dropping their controllers because Reflector is balanced and not jump cancelable.
On the other hand I think meteor canceling was stupid idea that actually ruined a bunch of characters that depended on that maneuver to score wins due to being specifically design to be weak or “unique” in other areas. (Yoshi)
Plus once you reach into a competitive arena scoring meteors that good players can instinctively recover 90% of the time is well, stupid. If anything I like the idea of meteors only working for a certain low percentage but then turn off when high.
And yes I know at high percentages meteors can become irrelevant for certain characters but for many others it is still a viable edge until they are truly at high %s.
I was kind of hoping Fox’s blaster stunned again. Ah well.
