Finally... SMASH NEWS

Got this straight from The Dojo.

We've got combos. Single button that is.

Fox ponders whether his newly equipped one-button arm freakout dance is a good thing or a bad thing.

Personally, if you have played Smash before you'll probably agree that this is a good turn of events. Multiple button combos for quick attacks are great and all, however I'm sure most of you found yourselves using Kirby's rocket-punches and Fox's leg kicks only every now and then. The combo trapped your opponent for all but a second while your thumb fell off, giving you little payoff. I personally used the yellow c-stick quick smash much more.

Plus, remember that there are now 4 different contollers that can be used to play. A multiple button combo could get confusing on the different formats.

The action required now to unleash certain attacks is to press and hold the button, giving a certain amount of time and then it automatically unleashes combo doom. The button layout is as follows.


Yep, A. Or B or 2. Otherwise, you can still button mash it just releases a slightly different event. If you repeatedly hit your opponent, then the kicks automatically start. Pretty neat.

Next...new levels. This is slightly old, but this page is new anyway. Here's a brandy new shiny pic of the Bridge of Eldin.

And, as an added bonus, just like in the game we get a cameo from King Bulbin, riding high on his hog.

Yes the bridge does get taken out too, and gets repaired from the portal (Thanks Midna!), because as they announced ALL or at least most of the stages will move in some way.

The bridge being repaired...


Makes you wonder about the whereabouts of Link as the bridge gets fixed. What if you play him?

WHAT IF?

Again, I got this from the Dojo.
