Re: New Smash Bros!
Well, using the D-pad would make it impossible to use tilts (strong attacks? I forget the official name; I'm a semi-competitive smasher), wouldn't it?
Anyway, the demo feels a lot more natural than I thought it would. I was expecting to go in with the 3DS controls feeling incredibly awkward, but no, they actually flowed pretty well from the Gamecube controller, except for grab and shield. Those still mess me up.
As far as the full game, I didn't have much in the way of expectations for the roster, since aside from a select few, Brawl already had everyone who really matters in Nintendo. Yet... this went and added none of the remainders, unfortunately. No Mewtwo return, no Ridley, no K. Rool, no Dixie. And Dark Pit and Ganondorf still being Fat Falcon were both pure garbage.
On the flip side though, Palutena and Pac Man are both awesome additions, as was the Duck Hunt Dog, random-as-hell as it was. And the game looks amazing on the Wii U, just looking at some of the models in it. Can't wait for that one to release. And there's a shitton of new items and stages and musics and aasfasdfafsafdsasf new Smash. New Smash is good.
