SSB4: SSB for Wii U and 3DS, maybe the NX and also your toaster!

What's with all the mentioning of Angry Birds? Sakurai is combining stuff from the target contest and home run contest, not stealing concepts from other games. People are making him sound like a thief (I'm talkng about Miiverse too). :/

Because the concept of this mini game basically is Angry Birds (possibly with a bit more boom and destruction, though). Have you ever played Angry Birds?

I hear "The Devoted" playing in the Colosseum stage. :o

No. But I really don't think Sakurai is stealing from it.

[Carter]

Never played angry birds? You should! It's so cute and free on your phone.

I no idea why a 3DS game was made for it. Angry birds was the best on phones.

[Raven]

No. But I really don't think Sakurai is stealing from it.

It's the same concept. Shoot something at a structure made of different pieces. Destroy as many things within the structure as possible.

It's not like this style of game is copyrighted (only the name and characters, I assume). Nobody's accusing Sakurai of "stealing" anything.

Fire Emblem could give Pokemon a run for it's money in character count especially if you count the non playable characters in Fire Emblem. Pretty much every level gives a named boss character and most games have 25-35 chapters. You could also count each evolutionary line as a single character instead of each pokemon (after all we don't count Hero Ike and Vanguard Ike as separate characters). Of course Pokemon does have a lot of named human characters too. There was a thread awhile back, maybe even before Awakening that mentioned how many playable characters there are in the Fire Emblem series now but I can't seem to find it. :/

Well, some people sure acted like it. xP

Angry Birds is incredibly popular in Japan. I'd be more surprised if Sakurai has claimed he has never played it.

[kingddd]

Even then Angry Birds wasn't even an original game. It's pretty much the same concept of Crush the Castle which even the creators of that game admit was just a refined version from another source. I personally didn't enjoy the game that much.

[IceBrand]

Wow. I mention the bomb minigame yesterday and no one bats an eye. Six hours later BOOM, pic of the day.

Just like how 2048 is a revamped version of Threes. And I'm sure Flappy Bird had to have been done before.

yeah it was the same concept as Helicopter and SF cave

I don't play phone games. They never get my interest and they're stealing the spotlight from PC games and even big guys like Nintendo.

This new bomb minigame looks fun, btw. ^^

[BANRYU]

I don't think anyone is thinking Sakurai and the Smash devs are copying or anything; like Ana says, they're combining the concepts from other Stadium minigames, and it just so happens to be similar to a gameplay concept a lot of us are familiar with. Nothing wrong with that, is there?

Wow. I mention the bomb minigame yesterday and no one bats an eye. Six hours later BOOM, pic of the day.

Haha... Yeah... I know how you feel...

People were all like 'oh okay let's share photoshop palettes' and then I try to get in on the action and... no one notices... no that's fine I'm okay .-. *snif*

Yeah, I'm sure Sakurai just combined existing gameplay from his mini games and just HAPPENED to end up looking like Angry Birds by coincidence.

I'm not saying Sakurai stole the whole concept, but to say this isn't somehow influenced by Angry Birds is somewhat naïve.

Good news! Angry Birds is on console! Including 3DS and Wii U!

[Chloe Neo]

The wii u hosts angry birds...it cant possibly go wrong

[Anacybele]

I've not seen any Angry Birds games for 3DS or Wii U. Besides, it still doesn't interest me. xP

[Ninian]

Angry Birds shouldn't have gone past phones. But anyway, this new game looks like a lot of fun. I really hope normal Target Tests are coming back, but I'd love to see character-specific ones again.

[shadowofchaos]

Angry Birds just invaded Super Smash Bros.

I am okay with this.

I meant that I've never seen any on store shelves. Not that I don't believe they exist. xP

they were everywhere here in Canada. It was piling up since people were smart enough not to buy them since the phone version was pretty much free at that point.

Hopefully this version of N's theme is on the stage.

All three versions would work pretty well though. Be it the normal B/W one, the final B/W one or the B2/W2 one.

Or go nuts and use Ghetsis's music. Now with more Dennis.

[Jotari]

I hope board the platforms comes back. With all the gliding, ledge grappling and alternate recoveries added to the mix you could have some really creative levels.

Lol, they should totally make Angry Birds playable.

White egg bombs all the way
