It's been over a week now, /v/. Has your mind come to grips with the fact that it's actually happening?
I hope she's mid-tier
>>321172570
My penis is waiting for all the crossover porn
>>321172756
I suspect she may be because it looks like she has serious difficulty killing people without Witch Time (a counter) or her Wicked Weaves (telegraphed)
>>321172880
i'm ready for palutena to get the horse.
>>321172570
They said Bayo would never get in. Too sexual, too many guns, too many compromises needed. I have to admit, as much as I wanted her, I was not expecting her to actually join the roster. That had more to do with her relative obscurity as a third party than anything, though.
Been listening to the music again.
>Bayonetta this is your time. You're gonna sparkle, you're gonna shine
>>321173214
>the sm4sh versions are instrumentals.
>>321172570
Still feels great
I just wanna play Corrin more than anything.
I'm still coming to grips with the idea that Sakurai threw out hundreds of fan suggestions just to advertise the new FE and ended the DLC there; if that ain't the world's most brilliant marketing strategy, publicity through controversy, I dunno what is.
>>321173426
What?! No, you're fucking with me, Right?
>>321173609
>hrew out hundreds of fan suggestions just to advertise the new FE
>Sakurai said poll was gonna include 2 characters
>we got 2 characters (Cloud and Bayonetta)
>Corrin has nothing to do with the poll
>People still are mad that someone didn't get in instead of Corrin even though Sakurai said it was only gonna be 2 characters and we got 3 characters instead
Rather it's just another brilliant way of Sakurai pointing out how autistic and whiny the smash fanbase is and that it's impossible to satisfy them
>>321172570
Longest wait of my fucking life, it better be mid February and not the tail end of the month
>>321173027
>Implying People won't just spam Witch Time anyway
>>321173815
>spamming counters
awesome, a free grab or charged smash attack.
>>321173027
So? Shiek has trouble killing people. Doesn't stop Shiek from stopping SS+ tier
>>321173709
>implying anyone should be okay with forcing literal who's a so called Nintendo All-Stars game
>>321173794
They actually said they were aiming for February, so it may be a slightly longer wait
bayonetta is literally the worst addition we could have had from the ballot. She isn't iconic at all, I wanted something on the level of banjo and kazooie or simon belmont, not some character from a game literally nobody even played. Nobody played bayonetta until it came to wii u, what a waste of a charter.
>>321174002
how can you say this when the first game in the series had fucking ness who nobody had heard of and captain falcon who had never appeared outside of his car except in the instruction manual to a game that was mildly popular at best. and i love both of those characters. half the fun in smash is the obscure characters, just look at mr. game and watch.
>>321174002
Literally been done since the first game.
Nobody knew who Samus or Ness or Captain Falcon were in Smash 64 times
Nobody knew who Roy or Marth were in Melee
Nobody knew who the fuck ROB and Lucas were in Brawl
>>321174002
It's literally the same situation as Roy, except the game already came out in Japan this time, the game's actually coming to the West, and Corrin isn't universally hated by the FE fanbase s/he hails from.
>inb4 "B-But it's okay when Melee does it!"
>>321174080
>>321174074
It must only be play testing, bug fixes and balancing to do at this point. If it's March i'll flip some shit
>>321174080
Didn't know more than a million copies in three months is nothing.
>>321174239
she looks pretty close to done to me but who knows. i'm personally hoping it's early february myself.
>>321174080
>banjo and kazooie
>iconic
Not so fast amerifat.
>>321174312
Not even in America.
Only manchildren know who Banjo and Kazooie are anymore.If you're under 25 you probably never played it.
>>321174080
That's some good bait. But on a serious note, I really do want the Belmonts in Smash. He deserves a spot and would have a lot of interesting moves and items to bring into the series.
>>321174160
>Nobody knew who Samus was
Are you drunk?
>>321174395
tell konami to stop being fuckheads then. i'm a huge castlevaniafag though, just imagine if they pulled a Bowser Jr and let you play Simon, Trevor or Richter depending on the costume.
>>321174254
castlevania has sold 20 million copies, much more deserving.
>high possibility of /ss/ with bayo
>maybe bayo x palu or samus
>maybe all 3 girls x 1 boy
can't wait
>>321172570
Still mad. Overdesigned trash from a genre of games for people with shit taste. Not iconic. I didn't even vote for him, but Wonder Red makes way more sense and ticks all the same boxes as her. Corrin was just as shit of an addition. The DLC overall is some of the most lackluster I've ever seen. Smash 4 will always be wasted potential tier.
I voted for Bomberman.
>>321174492
It's also owned by a company which seems to be abandoning consoles entirely.
>>321174427
No. Nobody knew who Samus was. Smash was pretty much the game that told most people who the fuck Samus was.
I remember all my friends thought Samus was a dude or a robot or both.
>>321174574
>from a genre of games for people with shit taste
>Wonder Red makes way more sense
>>321174445
Instead of reasoning or cooperating with Konami, maybe someone can just buy all their IPs once the pachinko well runs dry, or maybe skip the wait and do a hostile takeover.
If that alt character/costume thought goes in, I'll be maining Richter all day, and spamming axes like a bitch. Just like normal Castlevania.
>>321174636
>once the pachinko well runs dry,
They aren't focusing on pachinko, that division has been underwater for years.
They're focusing on mobile.
>>321174212
Eating that much sugar can't be healthy.
>>321174610
So you and your friends just never played video games before smash.
>>321174570
>bayo dominating all the other females in unique fashions
>>321174160
>>321174610
>Nobody knew who Samus was
This is not how you catch Metroids
>>321174781
Dude Metroid was niche as fuck before Smash.
Are you underage? Smash 64 came out in a time when people didn't even really know what the fuck a Kirby is.
LET'S DANCE, BOY
>>321174781
In Europe Metroid was basically nonexistent back then
>>321173426
>>321173695
but have you heard them? the sax is amazing, reminds me of the MK8 Big Blue tune
>>321174935
Are you underage? Metroid was one of Nintendo's biggest franchises before N64.
>>321174798
>futabayo
boy oh boy

Are you serious? It didn't even get a N64 game.
It really only started to get popular with Metroid Prime.
F-Zero was more known than Metroid
>>321175075
>bayo forcing the other girls into bdsm torture devices
>each one is tailored to the individual girl
>>321175090
Yes?
>>321175236
It didn't get an N64 game because Nintendo had no idea how the fuck to turn Metroid into a 3D game. That's why they eventually turned to Retro.
Super and Prime are two of the most critically acclaimed games of all time, how the fuck can you claim that Metroid was one of Nintendo's small-time franchises in that era?
>>321174297
As early as possible would be fucking great.
>>321175356
>Super Metroid
>1 million sales
>on the fucking SNES
>most critically acclaimed game of its time
Top fuckin kek m8
Add to that that it was basically only popular in Amrica and that Japan and Europe didn't even give a fuck about Metroid and you should consider that it's actually a fucking miracle Samus made it into Smash64
>>321175309
he never said anything that
>>321175512
Metroid basically invented the Adventure genre, and sales are not the same as being critically acllaimed you mong.
>>321175293
>Bayonetta fights Donkey Kong for the honor of being top sexual meme character
>>321175617
>Metroid basically invented the Adventure genre
Dude just stop.
What did it mean when Sakurai said that Bat Within will activate if Witch Time is triggered late?
Does that mean it will activate if they wait and attack you when your counter runs out?
Or that it will activate if you over used Witch Time to where Witch Time won't work anymore?
What did he mean by "triggered late"?
>>321175705
you know how counters have that recovery after a failed counter? if Bayo is hit during that, instead of the usual punishment, BW is triggered
>>321175692
Aside from Zelda it was one of the pioneers of the whole backtracking to get to new areas ordeal.
>>321175650
has dk ever canonically fought an opponent by forcing them onto a triangle horse? the dong is old news anon. besides there's still captain falcon and his bulge, and zero suit samus in general.
>>321175807
play more video games anon
>>321175807
Zork came out in 1977.
I hope the third Bayonetta on NX sells like shit, that will show them that shoving a shitty character in a smash game doesn't help with sells.
>>321175807
>Aside from Zelda
>Yeah aside from THE game that ACTUALLY popularized adventure games it totally was one of the pioneers guys!
>>321175635
How the fuck are people so damn salty about this? God damn Ice Climbers and Falco are fine but not Bayo? I haven't seen this kind of sperging rage about something in a while.
>>321175803
Wait, so her counter can't fail if she is hit during it, or after it? How is that fair? So when she counters, your options are to grab her, or do nothing? What?
>>321176038
grabbing her is a fine punish especially considering almost 100% of combos in this game begin with throws.
>>321175896
I didn't care about bayonetta, but the butthurt its created is fucking delicious.
>I hope good games sell bad and fail because i'm salty about dumb shit
I will never not love this board for being filled with children.
>>321176038
grab obviously nullifies everything if it follows counter rules, besides you should be grabbing counterfags anyway
even if she gets BW she still gets damaged, it's to compensate WT not returning damage
>>321173080
>>321172570
for all yall who wanted Shovel shit knight and other meme characters, i hope you choke on it. This is the best addition to the game.
>>321176038
I think she still has an end lag, her counter time is just longer than the usual counter because before the endlag comes BW
>>321175967
It's cause Bayo beat out the characters they wanted in. That's why.
On a side note, i'm surprised that they made bayo's crouch so low. I wonder if she can crawl?
>>321176038
grab her, or force her to use bat within with weak jabs. She still takes damage during bats
>>321176232
what would crawling Bayo look like
>>321176253
Similar to Samus I bet
>>321176169
the only problem i have with this is that now i won't get to see shantae getting the bayo treatment. or maybe i will if shantaefags keep bitching like they have.
>shantae can't make it to smash because she's locked up in bayo's clock tower sex dungeon forcibly cumming her brains out
it writes itself, doesn't it?
>>321176295
not sexy enough
>>321176232
>y cant witch crawl?
>>321175913
Fucking Kamiya
>>321176349
A little more doggystyle like than Samus I bet
I'm laughing at the Shovel Knight fags and K. Rool fags
Mostly for their delusions.
>>321176426
>People who actually thought K Rool was gonna get in after he already was made a Mii costume
top cucks
>>321176426
to be fair to roolfags, their character is at the very least a first party nintendo character who could make sense if given the chance. but honestly it's been 4 smash games + dlc so unless he legitimately does win a poll or something then i don't see him ever making it unless he makes a proper comeback in a new dkc game.
I'm ready to wreck shit asCorrin
>>321176473
>>321176426
SKfags are annoying due to the circumstances that happened, from the amiibo thing to that faggot Tamaki making up some shit. I'm surprised that "leak"fag didn't have pitchforks and torches in front of his house.
>>321176473
Their justification was:
"Link and fox have mii costumes and they're playable fighters!!"
It was pretty funny.
>>321176538
>people don't buy Corrin because they're mad
>they have no way to familiarize themselves with their moveset and tech without hoping someone chooses them online
>>321176813
I love how he is a tipper character for smashes that actually uses poke attacks, with an extended range to boot.
Also I feel like Counter Surge can be "manually" activated, since in the trailer I see him several times using it without someone attacking.
>>321174080
>banjo and kazooie
Literally fucking who?
>>321176902
I think that's his down smash. At least that's what it looks like to me.
>>321177228
Ain't they those blokes wot play the songs that all sound the same,
>>321177228
gr8 b8 m8
>>321175913
So, did he know the whole time that she was going to be in, or he knew that she was going to be in (when they approached him and they started programming her), but couldn't say anything that she would be in it?
>>321175913
Go the fuck to sleep, Flyer
have you guys seen DKVine? Literally crocodile tears.
>>321177551
Probably the latter, he tweeted about knowing about the announcement because they were consulted for quality control over Bayo's portrayal in the game.
I remember PG tweeting something about a surprise for Bayo fans just after the poll.
>>321172570
Still can't believe, still really happy
>>321172880
>actually jacking off to Bayonetta
>>321177904
you know, there's nothing wrong with being disappointed or sad that a character you liked didn't get in, but fuck why do people have to be so fucking juvenile and take it out on the characters that did. you don't have to like every character, hell i hate half the newcomers in this game, but they aren't the reason why your character didn't get in. unless you're a chromfag, then your anger at robin might be justified in that case.
>>321178273
they have death threats for Sakurai
also I am more laughing at the fact that they use fan polls as a basis of K. Rool's popularity.
>>321178356
they probably (hopefully) don't actually mean the death threats considering the way their site usually is but fuck that's still some unnecessary salt. i sympathize with everyone who didn't get their most wanted (i got mine, it was ryu believe it or not) but getting personal with it is retarded.
>>321178606
I couldn't care less about death threats from a forum but what bothers me the most is the fact that they think a poll made by them or an isolated internet community is factual data
>>321172570
Just went back and beat Bayonetta 2 actually, the game itself was great but the story was pretty weak. Didn't like pic related as a charcter, thought it was going to end up him being Luka or something but it never says.
The Norse stuff was alright but no giant wolf battle, what the fuck? Who even was the final boss?
>>321179015
well, it is true that rool did win a lot of fan hosted polls on shit like smashboards, gamefaqs, reddit, what have you but even all of that combined is still a microcosm of the overall voters. i guess in the end the only ones who will really know how well rool really did.
i actually did want rool myself but ryu makes up for his absence ten times over. besides if those are the fags i would have had to share him with then maybe it's for the best we didn't get him.
>>321179241
* i guess in the end the only ones who will really know how well rool really did
is sakurai and his staff. fuck i'm tired and i can't type
>>321179241
online polling has many dangers though, it's just that these people don't seem to see that
>>321179484
i mean, maybe it's possible that if bayo wasn't top 5 in american in addition to being number 1 in europe that she wouldn't have gotten in, but the consistancy is hard to argue. really though no matter who won a bunch of people were bound to throw a shit fit which is unfortunate. if people are sore losers about who gets in the game then i can't even imagine how they are when they actually play it.
>>321179165
His voice actor nearly ruined the game for me, holy shit was that attempt at an accent poor. He never god damn shuts up either.
>>321179923
there's also this "she couldn't be the ballot winner because her model is complete!" which is weird, since even if it's K. Rool that would still apply
>>321172570
I sincerely hope she's as broken as the trailer gives the impression she is.
>>321179923
I once had a guy rage quit on me IRL cause i hit him with Mac's KO punch. He was so buttflustered that he couldn't even unplug his GC controller and storm off properly.
>>321180873
yeah, if what they said about finishing a DLC character needing 4 months is true then that would still hold up because the ballot ended in late October and Bayo's release is in February.
>>321181164
trust me as a Ryufag I've seen my share of rage as well. it's amazing seeing a whole new generation of scrubs bitching about shoryukens.
>>321172570
Yes, because I don't give a shit about Bayonetta in the slightest and coming to grips with things that don't excite me is incredibly easy.
>>321179241
>fan hosted polls on shit like smashboards, gamefaqs, reddit
i can tell you a lot of the same people visit these sites.
>>321182158
yeah, i was thinking this as well. you really have to consider that these polls barely scratch the surface of how many people worldwide voted on the ballot. shit, who even knows how many people voted without ever campaigning for their character.
>>321172570
Your people keep talking about this new wave of bayonetta porn but I havent seen shit yet
>>321172570
Too busy dealing with all these fucking clouds.
Lingering giant hitboxes, lingering giant hitboxes everywhere.
>>321174254
Only after a massive price cut, tbf. She's not iconic at all, but I'm not complaining because Smash will fix that soon.
>>321181834
The ballot ended september lad. Anyhow consider that they are programming 2 characters

I thought this was a neutral air joke, god damn it
