Earlier today, the version 1.0.4 update for Super Smash Bros. for 3DS hit the Nintendo eShop. Now that players have had their hands on the new version of the game for a good portion of the day, we’ve got a better idea of exactly what sort of changes have been applied.
The folks at CLASH Tournament sat down and put together a side-by-side comparison of the new version of the game with the previous iteration to see if “some of the crazier glitches and exploits have been removed,” as they put it. The changes that the team have confirmed so far include Greninja’s inability to cancel his landing lag with his Shadow Sneak special, an increased respawn time for Rosalina’s Luma (roughly 13 seconds now, up from the previous 8), the removal of toss cancels for Peach, Link, and Toon Link, and several other small changes.
To see these as well as many more changes in action, check out the video below. For a full list of the changes that they have discovered so far, hit the spoiler box beneath the video.
And, as a friendly reminder, do keep in mind that updating to this version of the game will render any previously saved replays useless, so be sure to capture and upload those before updating!
- Greninja can no longer cancel landing lag with his Shadow Sneak attack.
- Diddy Kong can no longer cancel hitstun with his Peanut Popgun.
- Mega Man can no longer cancel hitstun with Rush Coil.
- Pikachu’s Thunder now only fills up Mr. Game and Watch’s bucket by one block.
- Luma can still attack while Rosalina is grabbed, and when her shield is broken (can not confirm if Luma can attack if Rosalina is in hit stun).
- Luma takes roughly 13 seconds to respawn, compared to 8 seconds previously.
- Falco can shoot subsequent lasers quicker while standing (not featured in the video).
- Toss Canceling with Peach, Link, and Toon Link is removed.
- Yoshi no longer has teleporting glitches related to his Egg Toss.
- Roll canceled pivot grabs have been removed (appears to be the case, but not 100% confirmed).
