This doesn't feel like the Wii Fit Trainer leak that happened. This dude just happen to get lucky with the vaguest guess. I'd have more faith in that leak if say Shulk had gotten in rather than Greninja since he specifically names Shulk instead of "A character from Xenoblade Chronicles" type bullshit.

DrPaper posted:It's culled a lot of "leaks" floating out there at least. There was practically none with Geninja, and pretty much all of them still have Zelda/Shiek, Pokemon Trainer or introduce a new character who changes. Right now the Gamasutra leak is the only one that hasn't been killed - even if 'A Pokemon from X and Y' is safe baby bullshit. Doesn't mean it's more real, but it's the only left to be debunked. I really want to believe the Gamasutra leak just because everything it calls sounds awesome. Do you even know how much I'd love Rhythm Heaven Chorus Men as a fuckin character. If you want my bet I think the initial Wii Fit Trainer leak was legit and Pac-Man and Mii will be a thing but some other guy claiming to be the same guy who leaked WFT made the newer call with Shulk, XY Pokemon, Chorus Men et al. But I still wanna believe it anywho.

I will say though, failing to specify the Pokemon does start to make it a little shaky. Unless he knew Greninja was coming that day specifically and didn't want to ruin it for the Direct - which is possible, but also just convenient.

I think the Pokemon name can be explained by few things: -there are a lot of pokemons (I have Y but I couldn't remember Greninja's name), so if you're not into Pokemon it can be confusing. -The name might have been the Japanese name.

I'm guessing Char-X is Charizard's only Mega Evolution in this. Also, Global Smash Power to me still sounds like a ranking system to me provided that one knows exactly how many 'ranked' players there are.

I would take this person's word as gospel if they actually predicted Greninja, because he's not an obvious "star Pokemon" in the way that other inclusions have been. But "Pokemon from XY" is easy and broad and not worth any cred at all.

Hmm if Charizard X is Charizard's mega evolution they could use Mewtwo to represent Y's mega evolution.

GenericMartini posted:Hmm if Charizard X is Charizard's mega evolution they could use Mewtwo to represent Y's mega evolution. Or he could use neither because he's not in. But seriously, I think they just chose X because it looked more different from his main design and is cooler. Maybe he'll get Mega Y on the 3DS?

So is Ness coming back, or what? He's like one of the only original SSB characters that hasn't shown up in a reveal yet. And, I guess, Captain Falcon?

There's still a bunch of characters who I think are basically guaranteed, but not announced yet: -Captain Falcon -Ness -Ganondorf -Falco -Jigglypuff -Metaknight -Wario -G&W The characters who I think are very likely gone are Snake, Squirtle, and Ivysaur. Everyone else I'd peg at various states of uncertainty.

Luigi's the only one of the original four unlocks that's been revealed yet. I feel like they're definitely coming back, because they're basically integral to the series. It's just not Smash Bros without Ness and Captain Falcon. EDIT: At this point Ness is probably more of a Smash icon than a Mother icon. I'd actually kind of like to see them embrace that; work with Itoi and redesign Ness to both represent Earthbound and Smash itself. Cleretic fucked around with this message at 11:00 on Apr 9, 2014 |

It seems like they've redesigned Zero Suit Samus to represent Smash more actually. So should we give Ness neon high heels?

That's a lot of characters to unveil before Summer, I wonder if they're going to reveal much more characters in the coming weeks (instead of one or two per month) or that they are secret characters.

It'd be really, really surprising if Ness wasn't in. I also think it's pretty cool that Zero Suit Samus is separate, because it means now she'll have a functional Final Smash and not "Transform into the character I didn't pick because I don't find her fun to play."

I still can't believe the Galaga ships showing up. Are you making this game just for me, Sakurai? Also gently caress all the PacHaters. If anyone should show up next to Mario, Sonic and Mega Man it's the muthafuckin' Pac Man.

Supercar Gautier posted:There's still a bunch of characters who I think are basically guaranteed, but not announced yet: Falco and Wolf seems like an either/or thing to me, and with the polar bear in Smash Run I'd say that means the Ice Climbers are back (though I'm disgustingly biased on the subject of Ice Climbers), but other than that I'd say yeah, we can guarantee all these guys basically. We're up to 29 confirmed dudes now, and I'd say we can guarantee another 9 veterans on top of that, so like, 38, plus R.O.B. and Lucas are sorta borderline cases, Ike and Wolf are on the lower end of "maybe" and we'll probably have around 4 more newcomers, give or take? No matter how you look at it this game's gonna have a really hefty roster, and with how individually tuned up every character looks compared to the Melee->Brawl transition that's really impressive. nerdbot fucked around with this message at 11:48 on Apr 9, 2014 |

She calls a ship and it takes her offscreen and everyone waits around for something to happen but it just turns out she left the game for good and you can't even choose her anymore. Then a better character shows up and surprise! They put development time into that instead!

I'm really glad Samus doesn't look as sickly and frail as she did in Other M, though. I feel like a lot of the loathing for her new design just comes from kneejerk revulsion towards Other M, which, granted, is justified. Compare/contrast: Brawl: Other M: (not even using her official render for this game because it's just a gratuitous rear end shot) Smash 4: Her Smash 4 design definitely looks the most like a Tough Space Warrior and least like a realdoll, at least to me.

I hadn't noticed this before, but her heels look like items that equip over the normal shoe part of the suit. No saying it'll impact game play or anything, but it's neat that it's very clearly an acquired powerup she picked up before the start of the game.

With Charizard, Pikachu, Greninja and Lucario in, things aren't looking so good for Jigglypuff, Squirtle, Mewtwo and Ivysaur. I'm honestly going to be a bit sad if we lose Jiggly & Squirtle. They're a lot of fun to play as. Is the cancellation of transforming characters due to the DS hardware limitations? Wario, Ness & Captain certainly have to get back in as well. I'd be happy to see Falco/Wolf/Lucas/Ike go unless they get more diverse movesets.

I will say now though, not having Frederick yelling "PICK A GOD AND PRAY! " as he runs people through for an assist trophy would be the textbook definition of "Wasted Opportunity".

I love Samus' redesign. The suit looks more like actual material, the highlights work really well and make her look more like a combat suit (if that makes sense) and the jet boots look hella rad and add some great contrast to her design.

I'm honestly going to be a bit sad if we lose Jiggly & Squirtle. They're a lot of fun to play as. I'd say it's more of a design decision then due to a limitation. The transform mechanic was more of a pain when using the Pokemon Trainer and I just wanted to use Charizard all the time. I wouldn't rule out Jiggly though. He's been in every one right? Seems like a odd choice to let him go.

Aladdin posted:It seems like a decent amount of people are questioning the decision to release the 3DS version first as it will supposedly cannibalize the Wii U sales. Though it wasn't emphasized in this Direct, I think the whole point is to tap into the large 3DS install base and capitalize on the 3DS-Wii U connectivity features and really push them. With any luck this would provide incentive for these users to get the system to access these features and boost sales for Christmas. I think one of the big reasons for the delay is that the Wii U version just isn't finished. You can see it with little things like the way Yoshi's feet clash with his body, how Zelda's hair clips through her boobs, etc. They probably decided that they would prioritize shipping the 3DS version and have the whole team finish up the Wii U version afterwards.

The thing that annoys me most about ZSS is that they could just have easily used Samus' military design from Other M and it'd be a million times cooler:
