On August the 29th, 2014, to the day, Shulk, the main protagonist of Xenoblade, known in the West as Xenoblade Chronicles, have been officially confirmed to be a playable character for Super Smash Bros. 4.
Not only Shulk was among one of the best additions to the cast of Smash by his unique gameplay among the other swordsmen like Marth and Link, and by the successful game he comes from, but this reveal was also the announcement of the New 3DS and of the new port of Xenoblade in 3D, making it one member of Nintendo's "Pantheon" of gaming.
As for me, while the ESRB leak spoiled Shulk with Ganondorf and Bowser Jr., it still made my life, as he was my most wished character ever, in front of Robin, Shantae, Palutena, Ridley and such.
But, even more, it accomplished a special part of mine.
Let me tell you :
During the pre-Smash 4 speculation era, from 2010 to 2014, I was the creator and main manager of a Smash Bros. Fan Club on the forum of a french Naruto website called CaptaiNaruto
(Fun fact : Xenoblade's poll was about which of the 6 Shulk's companions the members would like to see alongside Shulk, and Dunban has won ! )
And so, Shulk has been confirmed, and, as this forum has begun to die with Naruto coming to its end and fans' global disinterest, I adressed my last words to the Fan Club I was dedicating for roughly 4 years, as an hardcore French Smash fan, but also as someone who have made a risky bet which has at long last paid off.
That's why, while this forum isn't passed away yet, I cordially invite you to visit this topic in which we and its former members have been speculating on Shulk before it was cool, especially this page and this one, which are the first and the last page respectively, in order to make all this dedication I made even more acknowledged, and on a more global level !
Sorry if my English might appear to be confusing, but it was dear to my heart.
And besides, what were you doing on this day ?
