Well Legends was at one time an important Wii U exclusive, so I'd guess this is leftover from that. It's odd that Sakurai would choose to showcase a trophy from something that didn't work out like that, but the guy really likes to have fun with these things so more power to him.

It was one of the first big Wii third-party franchises. It, weirdly, makes more sense than Rayman. I'm not saying it's a sure thing but if we're getting something Ubisoft related... well, Rabbids would make a shitload of sense.

Dev on SSB began what, two years ago? So yeah, I can see this being a holdover from when Legends was expected to be an exclusive.

Maybe Sakurai wants to curate content from a wider range of games than just Nintendo titles this time, so we could see other significant third-party trophies, music, etc, even if those games don't get fighters.

Jesus gently caress Sakurai there is no way you can intentionally be this masterful at loving with your fanbase. I swear Nintendo people live in their own loving reality sometimes.

Yo, playable Rayman would be pretty hype. Don't tease my emotions like this. :ohdear:

I can imagine third parties are maybe like "Sure, why not let Nintendo shill our games in Smash Bros. as trophies if they can't be full playable characters?"

And Sakurai likes testing and trolling the Smash Bros. community by constantly changing the rules on what's in the game.

On one hand, I want Shulk in, because he's sort of an okay dude, and Xenoblade is quite a nice game and franchise I guess with X coming next year.

On the other hand, i'm all for the mind gently caress followed by the most frantic attempt at reasoning what has happened by some of the more manic Gematsu Leaker truthers out there if he isn't the one announced tonight.

The pic of the day pretty much states he asked ubisoft for stuff for a trophy

I hope there's a bunch of random as poo poo third-party assist trophies so the game is just this massive tome of videogame history. Alex Kidd? Sure why not. Master Higgins? Go for it. Earthworm Jim? Fine. Cloud? Limits broken. Scout? Bonk.

I'm sure one of the early Smash rumours said something about Ubisoft trying to push Rayman into Smash, didn't it? I can't find it right now, Google's already spitting up a million results for this new pic.

Guy on NeoGAF whose never outright leaked anything major (like never said "these characters are in!") who often leaks Ubisoft stuff said they had a push back during Rayman Legends coming out.
