Update 271:?????

Final Smash Trophies

In the Classic and All-Star game modes, you receive trophies for the characters you complete the modes with.

In Classic mode, the trophies you get are posed in basically the same way as the artwork.

Like this.

But in All-Star mode, you can get trophies that are modeled after each character’s Final Smash.

Whoa, check it out!

Compared to the other trophies, the Final Smash trophies are a bit more refined. Since they often portray a scene, they’re kind of like dioramas.

Fox

Bowser

Sheik

Pokémon Trainer

Zero Suit Samus

Pikmin & Olimar

Captain Falcon

Jigglypuff

Light and smoke are used to create fascinating 3-D effects. Of course, visual expressions like these are only possible in the video-game domain.

[The Qu]

These are probably the most visually stunning things in the game. My favorite is Zero Suit Samus. The Crystal Flash looks amazing in trophy form. The team outdid themselves with these!

[nocturnal YL]

Other than Jiggly's one seem to show a bit of 3D glitches (I mean, like around her ear), these trophies have been great!

[Sqrt2]

I take it that you get Samus's and ZSS's trophies at the same time, like you did with Zelda's/Shiek's in Melee, right?

Coudn't Sakurai just make a trophy guide...aw well. I love the final smash trophies, they are awesome! Ah and since this is an update, this is a message from the guy that does the translations for the US Dojo. He posted it on Neogaf. Here it is:

Hey there. This is Nate from the Treehouse at NOA. You may remember me from such classics as That One Demo In San Francisco and The Screenshot That Angered Smashboards.

Anyway, it’s general policy that we don’t post on message boards, but with the end drawing near for the Dojo, I got some special dispensation. I was going to post this several places, but since all roads lead to GAF anyway—and since this thread is of such legendary size—I decided this might as well be the only spot.

Anyway, as some of you know, we’ve been working on Brawl with Sakurai-san and his team for several years now, and the Dojo itself for almost a year. Needless to say it’s been a ton of work, though nothing compared to what Sora pulled off, obviously. That said, it’s been a labor of love, and its coming end seems sort of sad. I can’t tell you how many nights I stayed up until Japan Time, knowing what morsel of delectable information was about to be served up and relishing every bit of anticipation from you guys. It really made all the work worthwhile, and I wanted to thank you die-hards that have been around for it all.

I also figured this would be a good spot to ask a favor. Now, I don’t know how many of you guys download daily stages and snapshots from the Smash Service, but for those that do… Look, sorting through 10,000 submissions every week is fun and all, but it breaks my heart to have to ditch some amazing stage because it had an extra-raunchy title. There’s some incredible creativity on display that I’d love to share with the rest of the Smash community, but a little restraint in the naming conventions will go a long way. Yes, we all know it’s hilarious when Diddy Kong goes to town on somebody’s face—I feel that the snapshot medium is also ready for some fresh ideas. Spread the word if you can.

So… Yeah. Have fun with the last seven or so updates. And when the gray day of reckoning comes and Sporsk approaches, pillow in hand, to gently smother this thread at last, do not weep! Smile, because Smash endures, and it is good.

Sounds like a nice guy.

Apparently not. Tei posted about this the other day. You have to do both separately. For one of the modes (but not the other, strangely) you also have to do each of Pokemon Trainer's 'mons individually.

[TV Eye]

^ Yeah, it really sucks. It makes Classic mode reeeeeeeally tedious.

[wanderingshadow]

I wonder why they did that. In Melee, you got both Zelda and Sheik's trophy he first time around.

[Flip]

All the transformers need to complete Classic Mode in each form: Zelda, Sheik, Samus, Zamus, all 3 Pokemon. In All-Star, you can knock off the Trainer since all his Pokemon attack at once but otherwise you still have to get the other forms. Some of the trophies are very similar, at that. The three Landmasters and the two Triforce Slashes have like... no differences whatsoever. So while it's very cool to see, say, Yoshi burping fireballs on a Koopa Troopa or Wario hoarding Garlic, it loses the appeal when you realize you've got three that are just a space animal standing on a tank or you need to beat Classic mode with each Pokemon and it does not count towards that Challenge of "Beat Classic with all characters."

Well, its not like you had to beat the game twice with all characters, (just with three )

Also, I do Miss the classic trophies from melee, you know, the ones where the character was depicted as in how he originally appeared in his/her original games, now not every character has this (and I wanted to see some of them like Pit and Sonic)

Yeah; like Flip said above, because Pokémon Trainer's Pokémon all attack at once during Triple Finish, it's considered one Final Smash. Samus and ZS Samus both have completely different Final Smashes, so it's logical that you'd have to do that twice - and then, even though Sheik and Zelda share the Light Arrows, both use it differently, as clarified by the Dojo (I believe Sheik's travel straight, while Zelda's curve? I forget how, exactly). It's the same difference as Fox, Falco and Wolf's Landmaster's.

[Kohta]

I love this one. The landmaster dissolving into wireframe at the back is a great effect! And of course Fox is there

So do you unlock Allstar after collecting all characters or after collecting all characters and doing classic mode with them all?

Just by getting every character. If you had to beat Classic with every character, I would never have All Star Mode.

BTW, All Star Mode is incredibly difficult.

Zelda's sends people more at a 45 (or higher) angle, where sheiks sends more at a straight trajectory (which is better for most stages).

Just do it on Easy and burn through coins as you have to continue. It's only 10 coins per Continue, which is soooo easy to come by.
