Shulk is higher than Ridely? wat?
Also, it's kinda shocking to see Chorus Men, Dark Pit and Girahim so high on the Chance list.
Well, a few things I forgot to mention there...
  1. The range on the chance list is HUGE. It goes from ~90% for Shulk to ~15% for Bandana Dee.
  2. Both lists leave out already disconfirmed characters, confirmed characters and veterans. Which is why the range is so large and Dark Pit is there.
  3. The difference between K Rool, Shulk and Ridley's want ratings are about 0.1%.

I'd imagine the Xenoblade stage containing several tracks compared to some other stages. Kinda like the amount Castle Siege and Lylat Cruise had in Brawl for example.

Assuming the stage has daylight features, would be nice if the mood of the music changes at night. Like Guar Plains and some of the 'softer' songs.

Still surprises me to see a character that was backed up by a false rumor, a clone that is most likely a stage boss on Palutena's Temple (or a costume, or both. Would really like the costume though.), and a one-time Zelda villain so high on the chance while a main character of the Kirby series is so low. And now that you tell me that the range is huge, it kinda seems like we really run out of characters. This feels SO odd.

The pleasure is mine. :D
Of course, more mods are always welcome :) We tend to get off topic a lot, though... :/

Also, we're getting too big guys (or not big enough). We're 19 pages behind the K. Rool thread now. We can catch them! Quickly, let us talk about stage hazards for a Junks styled stage for Shulk!

Well, while flying over sword valley, there could be mechon firing on Junks. And over Eryth Sea there could be telethia attacking.

I kind of like the idea of a big battle taking place in the background as you're flying around. Avalanche Abassy making an appearance when you land at Valak Mountain would be sheer awesomeness. Metal Face would be a given as well... Any other ideas, anyone?

Maybe land on the Fallen Arm and go in the Machina Village?

I really support @ Andyjoe522 Andyjoe522 & @ Bosspon Bosspon 's comments for the stage. I just honestly don't want walk-offs for the Xenoblade stage. I'll admit there's some bias behind that as a competitive player...I just wanna be able to get pumped in competition and not have to sigh over not being able to play on the stage that I'm expecting to be a fan-favorite.

EDIT - Well, there is a chance that walk-offs may be handled differently if certain things are cast aside. We'll see.

I hate walk out stages too because people just seem to camp off screen and spam one move.

Robin, I just can't seem to take my eyes off of your . . . library.
Robin...you have so many tomes...and they're so big. You're the wind beneath my wings, the fire in my heart, and you are so electrifying! You took my heart since the moment I saw you with that Nosferatu of yours :troll:

Hey, friends can share quotes, can't they? I mean, can't you see Dunban saying "Weak, weak and pathetic Let's press on, and on, and on, and on, and on!"
Now imagine everyone in the party saying "You can eat bread without knowing how to bake it."

Reyn: "You can eat bread without knowing how to bake it!"
Sharla: "Reyn, do you know how to bake bread?"
Reyn: "It shouldn't be too hard, yeah? What's so hard about that?"
Shulk: "Well, for starters, it requires a certain understanding of how an oven works."

I was thinking it would be smart for sales to announce Shulk shortly before the Japan release of the game, with Shulk being the most wanted character in Japan. It would kind of leave them on a hype high, which would be good for sales.

Shulk wouldn't work well as a hidden character imo, since anything Xenoblade being found, like a trophy or something, before the character is unlocked would reveal him.

I would make a hidden character somebody that the west wants badly. People would have lost hope for the character with it not being announced, but then news from Japan would reverse that causing people to be psyched.
