I don't think there's 5 more on the basis of any text leak.

I just think there's at least a few more, because if there were only 49 icons, there's less ugly ways the grid could have been laid out.

That's why I didn't believe the leak when it was just that picture. On the other hand, just shy of 50 is a ton of characters as is and Duck Hunt Dog seems like a good capper in the tradition of G&W and ROB.

The secret of the Final Five lies in the heart of a sliding puzzle. When the tiles shift like the sands of time the Grid will be complete, and then those Sages of Smash will draw back their woolen hoods and reveal their mysteries for all the world to know.

Also if you have to play on Classic at 5.0 to unlock Doctor Mario, that explains Sakurai's comment about how you might face a different enemy instead of Master Hand at increased difficulty.

Just so everyone knows, none of the leaks have come from a copy of the game. The only true leaks that have come out so far have been from ESRB review footage, so anyone talking about things you could only know by playing the game is lying.

Also the whole final five thing was revealed to be made up by the guy who originally posted the screens and clips from the review footage (which was leaked to him by someone else). Basically the only basis for the final five is that they could fit five more characters into the CSS.

Are you at that point where you just start dreaming of Smash? Every time you lay down to close your eyes and fall asleep you dream of Palutena vs. Roslina? A Goddess versus The Universe Mistress. Holy cow. You dream of Smash but dare not touch anything for fear of waking up -- not dreaming of Smash. Closer and closer it getrs.

I am hoping the fact that Wario has not been featured in a trailer yet just means he'll get a video all to himself when you unlock him :3:

Make it home-video style where Wario goes around and farts on the other smashers as they sleep.

The Persona 3 guy's weapon is actually a gun with which he shoots himself with in the head to summon demons/deities to fight for him. So I guess he could be the new pokemon trainer.

Final Capper? Do you think the leaks are being systemically organized in order of obscurity/hype level? Like every subsequent leak has to be more strange or something? There could be more characters, and they could just be less strange than Duck Hunt Dog.

He means that esoteric retro stuff usually comes pretty close to the end of the roster in unlocks. Game and Watch was the last one in Melee, and R.O.B. was pretty far back there in Brawl.

I don't really think having a few ports really makes him a Nintendo icon.
also the NES port of Metal Gear is so bad Kojima actually disowned it. His son wanted to play as one of his dad's characters and he asked Sakurai. Characters like Pac-man, Mega Man and Sonic have way more history with Nintendo than Snake or anything MGS related. It was cool as a novelty for Brawl, but I can totally get why Sakurai didn't even ask Kojima this time around. He was fun to play as mechanically, but as a character I won't really miss him, even as a huge fan of MGS cus it was just weird having him there. About as weird as Big Daddy in a playstation brawler tbqh.

Nintendo is very important to Snake though, as without the NES port that was successful in America we wouldn't get the American-aimed sequel Snake's Revenge, and without Snake's Revenge a staff member wouldn't have told Kojima to make a "real" Metal Gear 2, and we wouldn't have the rest of the franchise.

There goes the theory that Reyn's not in the FS because he's an assist trophy, since Riki is both. The mystery of Reyn deepens.

Honestly, it only gives more evidence that all the party members (sans Seven MAYBE) can appear in the Final Smash and it just chooses two of them.
