What would your Smash Demo look like?

[Guybrush20X6]

Suppose Nintendo puts out a limited time Demo for Smash 4 to boost WiiU sales, what do you think would be in it. Here's the rules.

* Only 4 characters, one of them has to be Mario and one a newcomer (doesn't have to be a confirmed one though ).
* Two Stages
* Free for all and one preview of another other mode.

Who and What would you chose?

 

[JediLink]

Realistically:
Mario, Link, Pikachu and Mega Man
Battlefield and Wily's Castle
Well, other than FFA... teams?

What I want:
, , and

Battlefield and Wily's Castle, I guess.
Training mode would be nice.

 

[Wegenbarth]

Only Ridley and King K Rool, Mario is there but can not be selected as its bugged.
Stage is Final Destination.

 

[dimensionsword64]

Mario, Bowser, Link, and Vaati.
Final Destination, Bowser's Castle
Free for All, Time

 

[peachy!]

Final Destination, no items, Alfonzo only.

 

[lordvaati]

Mario,Kirby, Mega Man, and the Villager
Stages would be Battlefield and The Arena.
2 minute Vs. And the first half of the new Adventure mode.

 

[Ravio_Yo]

Mario, Megaman, Ridley, and Bowser.

Gerudo Valley and Battlefield for 3DS, Skyloft and Battlefield for Wii U.

 

[kylexv]

Mario, Link, Kirby, Pikachu, Mega Man
Battlefield and the Punch Out!! stage.

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

Characters: Mario, Link, Pikachu, Mega Man
Stages: Battlefield (Wii U, 3DS), Boxing Arena (Wii U), Gerudo Valley (3DS)
Format: 3-minute Free-for-all

 

[RelaxAlax]

Why does everyone put Megaman? I suppose for hype but I would put ...

Characters
Mario, Link, Kirby, Pikachu, Samus, Bowser, Pit, Villager, WFT, Megaman

Stages
Battlefield, Smash Circuit, Smashville

2 minute FFA followed by a trailer

No 3DS demo, usually stores only have the Wii U display with demos.

 

[mimgrim]

My demo would be this.

All character
All stages
All modes

But you can only play it once before it disappears. Also the demo will kick you out after an hour.

 

[Meis]

The realistic demo I wait for has:

Mario, Link, Pikachu and Megaman. (Kirby is out to don't spoil its copy move, MegaMan is obligatory)
Battlefield and the Boxing Arena.
3 minutes Free for All and maybe a stage from the Adventure Mode.

But a more fanserviced demo would have the 12 E3 Characters (Mario, Link, Pikachu, Kirby, Bowser, Samus, Fox, Pit, Donkey Kong, Villager, Megaman and WFT).

 

[Khubbo]

4-6 characters depending if you can have up to 4 characters. limited items. 2minute match 1 or 2 stages

 

[Luigi#1]

Mario, Mega Man, Kirby, Villager.
Battlefield.
5 items: Ray Gun, Homerun Bat, Crate, Fire Flower, Koopa Shell.
2 Minute match.

No 3DS demo, usually stores only have the Wii U display with demos.

3DS might get a downloaded demo in the Eshop.

 

[LancerStaff]

Mario, Mega Man, Kirby, Villager.
Battlefield.
5 items: Ray Gun, Homerun Bat, Crate, Fire Flower, Koopa Shell.
2 Minute match.

3DS might get a downloaded demo in the Eshop.

Wii U gets demos too yaknow. Infact, I know some guys that'd buy Wii Us for a SSB4 demo.

Anyways, I'd choose Mario, Bowser, Pit, and Megaman for characters, Palutena's temple and Wily castle for stages, and a demo version of the new adventure mode.

 

[PikaJew]

3 minute matches only.
Battlefield and Boxing Arena only available stages.
Very few items available.
Mario, Donkey Kong, Link, Samus, Fox, Pikachu and Pit are the only playable vets.
Villager and Wii Fit Trainer are the only playable newcomers.
Kirby not playable because of new inhale item system.
Peach, Olimar, Zelda and King Dedede have new changes to be kept secret.
New Bowser buffs to remain secret.
Marth, Luigi, Toon Link, Lucario, Sonic remain secret characters.
Mega Man, Rosalina & Luma and Little Mac remain secret.

This would be ideal.
You have a number of vets that can help calibrate the new gameplay style.
Two newcomers to play around with.
Neutral stages and classic items.

 

[TiaSilvia]

Mario, Megaman, Sonic, another third party character( if we got another...)
Smash Circuit, Battlefield
3 minutes matches

 

[D-idara]

Mario, Link, Megaman, Little Mac
Stages: Battlefield, Wily's Castle.
Items: Ray Gun, Home-Run Bat, Screw Attack, X Bomb and Smash Ball.
Modes: Free-For-All (3-stock matches and 3-minute matches) and the first level of the story mode.

 

[BridgesWithTurtles]

Characters: Parappa, Fat Princess, Kratos, Radec
Stages: Hades, Metropolis
Modes: FFA and 2v2

No, but seriously...
Characters: Mario, Link, Pikachu, Wii Fit Trainer
Stages: Battlefield, Boxing Ring
Modes: FFA and 2v2 (hopefully both available for online play)

 

[bigbro2233]

Characters: Mario, DK, Link, Pikachu, Samus, Kirby, Fox, Yoshi, Wii Fit Trainer, Villager, Mega Man
Stages: Battlefield, Mario Galaxy Pyrosphere, Wily's Castle
Modes: Vs. Mode

 

[Waluigi4mvp]

4 Characters: Mario, Link, Pikachu, Megaman
2 Stages: Battlefield & PunchOut Stage
1 Mode: Free for All

 

[Souless_shadow]

Characters:Mario,Link,Samus and Villager
Stages:Final Destination and Boxing Ring
Modes:Stock and Stamina

 

[MrPanic]

5 characters: Mario, Link, Kirby, Pikachu, Megaman
1 stage available
2 modes:
- 2 minute point FFA with items (Ray Gun, Homerun Bat, Maximum Tomato, Koopa Shell)
- Beginning of adventure mode (first scroll stage and first fight)

I'd doubt we'll get a demo though, I feel like Smash is the type of game that would only lose sales with putting a demo out.

 

[Admiral Pit]

-Mario, Pit, Mega Man, Bowser.
-Battlefield and Boxing Ring
-FFA and 2v2 Team Battles

That's my non-biased list. Let's face it; we already seen Mario and Mega Man via that small footage of Sakurai playing. Bowser's there as the villain, not to mention he has new moves to show off. Pit also has new moves to show, but would be a change of pace.

 

[LunchPolice]

I wouldn't want a demo. I don't want anything to even very slightly taint my first experience with the game!

 

[Deleted member]

Mario, Link, Mega Man, and Mac. Only Battlefield and Final Destination (if it's in, otherwise Boxing Ring). Modes are FFA and Team Battles, and you can choose between Timed and Stock, limited to 2 minutes and 3 stock, respectively.

I didn't edit this because I realized I went against the rules. Nope. Not at all.
please don't hurt me

 

[RedCap-BlueSpikes]

Mario, Link, Donkey Kong, Little Mac.

But honestly, I'd expect at least 6 characters and 3 stages from an official demo. The demos for Nintendo's other first party titles have been quite meaty.

 

[MAtgSy]

I rather have a 3DS demo, far more curious to see how it plays on a handheld system. & no one's gonna buy a Wii U just to play a demo anyway.

Mario
Link
Pikachu
Little Mac (Mega Man's too big a deal to give out for free)

Battlefield
Super Mario 3D Land stage (to demonstrate how complex stages get)

FFA
Team battle

 

[PlayerXIII]

Mario, Pikachu, Link, Megaman
Battlefield and Dr Wily's Castle
FFA and Team Battle

What I'd like:
Mario, Pikachu, Link, Samus, Kirby, Pit, Marth/Ike, Megaman
Battlefield, Dr Wily's Castle, Pokémon Stadium and the Comet Observatory

 

[Capybara Gaming]

Mario, Villager, Mega Man, and Little Mac.
Battlefield and Nintendogs stage (I WILL be getting the 3DS one, i don't have a Wii U)
FFA and Team

 

[Niko Mar]

Mario, Link, Megaman, and.....Reggie Fils-Aime .
Battlefield and: Skyloft for Wii U, Rainbow Road for 3DS
Preview of another mode? Classic

 

[Renji64]

I would keep it simple. Time matches and Stock Link, Pikachu, Mario, Samus and BF and you good people would never turn their wiiU's off till the full game comes out lol.

 

[Rockaphin]

Megaman, Villager, WFT, Mario. That would've been ideal for an E3 demo last year.

 

[BluePikmin11]

Mario Link Villager and Megaman.
Up to 4 stages can be selected, a Mario stage, a Zelda stage, an Animal Crossing stage, and a Megaman stage.
That's what I expect.

 

[FalconBrofist]

Captain Falcon

1 stage, no items, the demo = Captain Falcon reveal

 

[Ascended]

Mario, Link, Little Mac, Mega Man (Two newcomers, two vets.)
The Ring and Skyloft as stages.
Also includes first three stages of Classic mode in additional to the FFA.

 

[evildevil97]

Mario, Link, Villager, Dedede.

Mario and Link should be standard. Villager is a newcomer and relatively small to show off smaller characters. Dedede gets in over Kirby to show off a larger character. I chose him over Bowser so no series gets more than one demo rep. And DK is close enough to a Mario rep that I opted against him as well.

As for stages, Battlefield and Garden of of Hope.

A classic Smash stage and a stage without a demo rep.

If I could add a fifth playable character to the demo, it would be Pikachu.

As for modes, a basic three minute Brawl and a shorter version of Classic mode. Perhaps with a boss character that is playale in the final version but not the demo? If he's playable, Ridley would be a perfect choice here.

 

[BindingBlade]

Hmmm....

Characters: Mario, Link, *Newcomer*, Megaman
Stages: Final Destination and Pyrosphere
Modes: FFA and Stage Creator

 

[Thirdkoopa]

Characters: Mario, Kirby, Fox, Mega Man
Stages: Battlefield, Wily's Castle, on 3DS replace Wily's Castle with whatever Mega Man stage (if there is one on the 3DS)
Modes: Able to be played with 3 stocks or 3 minutes.

i'll make an unrealistic one later

though a douche move would be to have one demo say "Go to the other demo"

 

[Pazzo.]

*Mario, Link, Kirby, Villager

*FFA, Team battle.

*Battlefield and Animal Crossing Stage.
