Could mean numerous things. Nobuo Uematsu (Pretty much every Final Fantasy game, among other games, bar the FF13 series) was listed as a composer but he only wrote Brawl main theme. (incidentally, XIII's composer is on the new list) Also I find it odd that there's no Shogo Sakai or Koji Kondo on the list...then again their contributions might be original tracks, taken directly from the game, as opposed to arrangements (ex. Forest from Kirby and the Amazing Mirror was taken directly from the GBA game into Brawl), or their contributions are on the WiiU version. It pains me to see Yusuke Takahama on the list...he butchered arrangements in Brawl. Also Yoko Shimomura's appearance has sparked my curiosity. He's probably my favorite out of all those currently on that list.

I remember something that was said in a sizeable splash art discussion on NA a long time ago, that any changes to Shyvana's splash art would have her look a lot less human, if not a lot less "beautiful" (I think that was the word that was used). So...working as intended?

Hukuna mentioned a new Shyvana splash art... New one for Vayne as well! Their in-game portraits, especially Vayne's, look rather silly right now, but they'll probably be improved later on.

That feel when my phone has a seizure when it connects to Wi-Fi when it receives over a thousand Skype notifications.

The first pokemon I thought of when I saw that was Espeon, but the more I look at it the less it looks like such. I'll try to find another screenie with that statue if I get time later.

I wager that it does something beyond healing given the items that exist already as well as the average max health of a Pokemon. My guess is that it's a Moomoo Milk (100 HP) and an Elixir bunched into the same item.

I'm all for wifi being an optional thing. We've always been about having that different metagame - there's a reason why the server rule about respecting the autonomy of the metagame exists. Give the option, but don't make it mandatory. That's what other servers are for. It makes very little sense to make this change given our history and rep as a very casual server. Also in agreement with Secundum...for the most part.

Jukestar Ezreal adventures, getting back into playing him a lot more. Not dying to the assassin is definitely a good start.

Someone will inevitably hack it into the game - give it time.

Kamina will be replacing me this week in my battle vs Dark Desire.

That's actually a reveal of the return of Brinstar (Melee) in disguise :^)

No one has all the answers. I wouldn't even trust CoroCoro. Magazines can and have pulled things out of their ass in the past, even CoroCoro (though it was not smash bros related). You can't trust any of these mags 100% of the time.

Too bad you're both in different regions :I

Is this for real

I get the notion that that's not the final name, but that might be me playing Captain Obvious Also, finally some serious Viktor rework talk after two damn years. How bout it.

The fact that you're finding Caitlyn fun at any point is a bit concerning.

This guy gets it. There's a lot to remove. I'd also argue that while the odd critical hit or freeze is frustrating, the people who do it for fun (which would probably be a vast majority) would appreciate the spontaneity of events tied to the RNG. If there wasn't any RNG, I'd argue that it would grow stale quickly.

Since this seemed to slide under the radar, a list of some of the stages has been posted on the site. It includes a few stages in the WiiU version, and the 3DS version, as well as three stages that will appear in both games. http://www.smashbros.com/us/howto/entry4.html Also spotted this, some information on solo play on the 3DS. It details a revamped classic mode (with the return of the Intensity system from Kid Icarus Uprising) as well as Stadium modes. http://www.smashbros.com/us/3ds/gamemode/entry3.html

Probably preseason. There have been grumblings that while it's not easy to make a skin for her, it's definitely not Zac-level hard.

Either way, I'm thankful someone in the St Louis police department still has their head on straight. Now it's a matter of whether the Highway Patrol can handle the situation. As long as they were better than the last guys, I'm sure they'll be fine...
