Don't worry Ike, we still Like.

I see he's more based off his Radiant Dawn appearance. Except without whatever steroids he was on in that game. Hopefully his original appearance will come back as an alt costume. Same with Marth.

This sort of lessens the chance of getting somebody like Lucina or Chrom as playable characters though.

Hurricane Ike has returned!

wait

OBJECTION MAN · **Reply #4502 on:** May 23, 2014, 05:42:46 PM

Ike was pretty much my main in Brawl. Glad to see him come back.

Hypershell · **Reply #4503 on:** May 24, 2014, 05:36:38 AM

Awesome news.

Since they're leaning towards RD's appearance, I hope that means Ragnell will have a blue flame effect this time.

Jericho · **Reply #4504 on:** May 24, 2014, 04:51:13 PM

Make Eruption his down smash and give him that wonderful Ragnell sword beam/wave attack and I will be SO hype.

Even if he's not on steroids he's still a gorilla by Japanese standards.

It's kind of funny though.

That's because Japanese people are used to their characters being twigs.

I know that, but I was more laughing about the people who cheered "Gorilla Ike" on for being a Gorilla. It's kind of cute.

I like Ike's biceps. Never used him before (haven't played Brawl), but I may give him a go. How's he handle?

He's a bit heavy and powerful as you would expect, not as slow as Ganondorf but I can handle him fine, I'd say kind of like Lucario as well. His recovery is really good but it's also really bad because it can cause you to drop like a rock at very high speeds.

Someone else can probably give you a better run down of him but that's what I got.

OBJECTION MAN · **Reply #4510 on:** May 25, 2014, 05:04:31 AM

He's slow but has good range. Just wait for that moment where you can counter hit or catch someone off guard, and their ass is flying. His 3 hit standard combo is ridiculously good.

That said, I expect a balance patch so to speak being put on him for this release. He may have been too good.

Hypershell · **Reply #4511 on:** May 25, 2014, 05:49:10 AM

Last I checked (which granted was some time ago), Ike was considered low rank by tournament players because the slowness of his attacks made a miss very easy to punish. But man, when he does connect, WATCH THE F*@#! OUT. Ragnell is insanely powerful, damn never every move outside of Aether is a solid launcher in Brawl. Ike was pretty much my favorite heavyweight in that game (much as I want to like Bowser, he is grossly underpowered by comparison).

I doubt if he needs to be weakened. Much as I liked playing as him, fighting against him wasn't nearly as annoying as fighting against a good Snake player. Then again, it's not uncommon for Smash's devs to seemingly overestimate the heavyweights...

Protoman Blues · **Reply #4512 on:** May 25, 2014, 08:33:52 AM

Well Snake had more priority.

And by more, I mean insane!

Quickman · **Reply #4513 on:** May 25, 2014, 08:39:47 AM

Okay, he sounds like a good player for me. I tend to play heavyweights, big guys, and complicated characters for some bizarre reason.

Protoman Blues · **Reply #4514 on:** May 25, 2014, 09:04:25 AM

You'd like Ike then.

Police Girl · **Reply #4515 on:** May 27, 2014, 09:26:32 PM

So Smash-Fest locations have appeared via Best Buy's site.

This is just like the E3 @ Home thing they did last year, but at least there are a few more locations? First 70 people at each event get some coin.

Also I can't say I really know much about tournament players but I recognize aMSa along with the announcers from this one highlight.

I love it.
I need this yesterday. Too bad it won't work with Wii software or else we'd have Gamecube functionality back.

OBJECTION MAN · **Reply #4519 on:** May 31, 2014, 03:57:47 PM

Weren't you able to get GC functionality by homebrewing the Wii side of the WiiU?

Also, surprised they didn't just make you buy a special GC shaped WiiU classic controller. How nice of them.

Protoman Blues · **Reply #4520 on:** May 31, 2014, 04:11:00 PM

Are they making a specific Smash Bros emblem GC controller, along with the Adapter? Cause I'll buy both without hesistation!

I know you can run ISOs, but I haven't heard of being able to run Gamecube discs yet.

OBJECTION MAN · **Reply #4522 on:** June 02, 2014, 08:55:19 AM

Ah, true. I'm not sure of which one I've heard about. Most likely ISO's.
