For the past year, Smash Bros. Director, Masahiro Sakurai, has been showing off Smash Bros. glory by uploading a screenshot from the upcoming instalments for 3DS and Wii U nearly every day on Miiverse… that’s a whole lot of content for your eyeballs! Today we’ll be looking in the far reaches of outer space!

It wouldn’t be a SmashShot without Sakurai’s comment now, would it…

Here’s the Great Fox from Star Fox: Assault. I wonder what missions it will conduct. It’ll probably have fighters running around on top of it without the pilot’s consent.

Here we see the return of the mighty Great Fox from Star Fox: Assault. Could this be a new stage announcement for Smash Bros.? If so then I think that when Sakurai said “I wonder what missions it will conduct” could mean it is one of those stages where the environment changes, similar to the Skyloft and Delfino Plaza stages.

Super Smash Bros. is set to be released for 3DS on the 13th September 2014 in Japan, 3rd October 2014 in Europe and North America, and a day later in Australia. The Wii U version is set to be released during Q4 2014.

I am a huge Nintendo fan, hence why NintyBuzz exists. I especially love all things Zelda and Metroid. NintyBuzz was started by me back in the Summer of 2014, it started out mainly as a hobby, though the site has gradually grown, and I hope it grows for many years to come!

I apologise for the delay for the SmashShot, been very busy of late!

For the past year, Smash Bros. Director, Masahiro Sakurai, has been showing off Smash Bros. glory by uploading a screenshot from the upcoming instalments for 3DS and Wii U nearly every day on Miiverse… that’s a whole lot of content for your eyeballs! Let’s start with Friday’s… which was a bit of a K.O. if you ask me!

And of course, here’s what Sakurai had to say…

Here’s a Screen K.O. shot. There are also patterns where players will disappear into the sky for Star K.O.s, but as a match’s time limit approaches, those K.O.s will not occur anymore.

We all know those comical K.O. scenes, when one of the characters bashes into the screen before falling in battle. It seems these scenes will be even more comical as the characters’ faces will flatten like when a face hits a strong window. The scenes where the character will fly off into the distance will also return.

And here is today’s SmashShot which show how much of a leech Robin really is…

Robin’s Nosferatu is the first ability in the Smash Bros. series that recovers your damage as it gives damage to others. The attack becomes even stronger if you strike from behind! Robin doesn’t actually use this ability in the original game, but we added that element to make the character unique. Who knows–the ideas we use in this game may contribute to the original series.

It seems that the surname Nosferatu is a very suiting for Robin as one of his unique abilities allow him to leech power from your opponents, like how a vampire sucks blood from its victim. Sakurai also mentions that though the ability does not appear within the Fire Emblem games, it could very well make an appearance in a future title. In fact, ay franchise could technically gain inspiration from Smash Bros.!

Sorry for the lateness, been busy today 😉 .

For the past year, Smash Bros. Director, Masahiro Sakurai, has been showing off Smash Bros. glory by uploading a screenshot from the upcoming instalments for 3DS and Wii U nearly every day on Miiverse… that’s a whole lot of content for your eyeballs! Link isn’t in today’s pic, though that doesn’t stop the other characters from fighting in someone’s living room… uninvited!

Apparently Sakurai condones these actions…

We have Nintendogs plus cats! How could we forget them!! Just FYI, there are about five dog breeds in this game. This was me, reporting from the 3DS-exclusive stage, Living Room.

Luckily no pots were broken today, instead we get a first look at the kittens in the 3DS exclusive stage, Living Room from Nintendogs+Cats. It turns out that there will be five breeds of dogs which could appear in this stage, perhaps we will also have several breeds of cats to appear too, such as that one breed which looks like the spawn of the devil… yikes!

Yet another look at the newly announced characters from Monday takes the spotlight in todays pic!

Here’s what Sakurai said…

The Levin sword and tomes are Robin’s life lines. The Levin sword can be activated by using smash attacks–you can even activate these moves in midair! However, just like in the original game, the Levin sword can be used only a limited number of times before it breaks, at which point it takes some time to regenerate. When the Levin sword is unavailable, Robin fights using the bronze sword.

It seems that Robin will be borrowing some game mechanics from Fire Emblem Awakening. You can use this Levin sword for stronger attacks, though player beware as it only takes so many hits before it crumbles up into oblivion… but luckily it can be regenerated after some time to use again in battle. There’s another pic today too!

The way Robin launches Arcfire is kind of crazy—he or she calls down a bolt of flame from above, then launches a pillar of fire! By the way, Robin’s tome changes with each special attack.

This one focuses on another one of his/her moves. Do these fighter have the power of the Gods or something as these are crazy as @#$&! Seriously! Other than that, we can see yet another example of the detail being put into the game as Robin’s tomes will change colours depending on what attack is being executed! Hopefully tomorrow should see a picture which hasn’t to do with the Fire Emblem representatives as, personally, Nintendo have been a bit of an overkill with Fire Emblem in Smash Bros. recently [haha].
