Okay, okay, I get the reasons why Nintendo did it this way. I wouldn't want to be kicked out of online every couple of matches because someone was using a character I don't have downloaded either. It's just that knowing we have the data makes it not feel like I'm getting DLC, it feels like I'm paying 3 or 4 dollars for just a roster icon to pick the DLC, and it comes across as a bit of a rip-off.

...Bah, whatever, my dumb opinions. I'll shut up about it now. Let's just go back to hyping up Roy and Ryu (or making GBS threads on, as the case may be for some of us).

----------

I'm hoping that Roy and Ryu are officially revealed alongside Lucas in the Smash Nintendo Direct before his release. It's gonna be disappointing if Nintendo already blew their E3 trump card before E3 even happened.

Uhm that is his Sealed Binding Sword Blade of Seals attack/critical animation not Marth's (Eirika's) Little lunge critical animation.

Ryu's B moves, the twitter account also has Lucas's and Roy's.

Also apparently Ryu doesn't have a counter the move that looks like one is a focus attack.

That's understandable, but this is just an unavoidable problem when you make DLC characters for fighting games. They can't just release it for free, that's not feasible for a number of reasons.

That's his Focus Attack, not a counter.

The question is, does it only absorb one hit? Or infinite hits?

I looked at the 9s clip and it looks like he has a Forward smash between Marth and Ike and a Final Smash shown off and absolutely nothing else. Let's maybe wait a tick and see if they did something to the character's moveset?

Here's the new Ryu arrangement.

They added Ken's theme but didn't give Ryu an alt-colour for Ken? Weird.

Ken is apparently an assist trophy. Or just a regular trophy.

He's a normal trophy. IIRC all of Ryu's colours are alt palletes from the SF2 era.

Voice clips have been discovered.

Apparently Ryu has voice clips for Shakunetsu Hadouken (EX fireball), Shinkuu Tatsumaki (EX spinning kick) and Shinkuu Hadouken (super fireball).

This might mean that he has a super meter mechanic similar to Mac's KO meter, as I suspected he might have.

For you non-Street Fighter players, what this means is that Ryu has a meter that he builds by attacking and getting attacked, and he is able to spend portions of this meter on enhanced versions of his special moves. When the meter is full it means he'll have access to a SUPER fireball which could be deadly.

Yeah, can't find the picture, but Roy's colors are based on people from FE6 and Ryu's is his SF2 colors.
