Recently, the 50 things you should see that are coming to Super Smash Bros Wii U was released.
I think the best couple of things to come to the game include:
- 6 and 8 player Smash! Play with up to 8 players in one match.
- Parallel stages or dual-plane stages. These are stages with multiple planes in them meaning that two kinds of battle can take place on the stage.
- The stage builder. This looks awesome. Draw using the Wii U tablet to create the stage, giving more flexibility.
- Bigger stages - Palutena's Temple looks awesome!
- Danger Zones - this damages you or KO you if your damage is higher than 100%.
- The Great Cave Offensive - from Kirby, it looks really good.
Notes about controllers when playing 8-Player Smash:
- Wii U GamePad (Max 1)
- Wii Remote or Wii Remote Plus* (Max 7)
- Wii U Pro Controller (Max 7)
- Nintendo GameCube controller** (Max 8)
- Nintendo 3DS series system*** (Max 8)
* Includes expansion controllers (such as the Nunchuk or Classic Controller Pro).
** Two GameCube Controller Adapters for Wii U accessories are required to connect eight GameCube controllers (each sold separately)
*** In order to use a Nintendo 3DS as a controller, each Nintendo 3DS system must have Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS.
There is so much more, but I wanted to highlight the best things here. You can watch the whole video here.
Finally, I have brought the innovation of live blogging to my blogging system - now there is something that WordPress doesn't give you out of the box (although there are plugins for it).
The new liveblog system is something I used to have using some very basic technologies that was never fully implemented. Now that JBlogs is fully implemented on the front end (apart from subscriptions, which my site subscribe button handles at the moment anyway).
