I wonder if there will be any capacity for Xenoblade Chronicles items. Seems unlikely, but we'll see.
Spike Gem. When you equip it you get the spike effect, and enemies that attack you will take damage themselves.

I'm just sitting here trying to figure out how Shulk was able to fight Link and Marth using the regular Monado.

Well, some aspects of canon do have to be set aside for any character to really work in Smash Bros., but if you do want to get technical about it Link and Marth aren't exactly people of Bionis, are they?

Been a while since I've been here, but I'm so happy that Shulk's officially confirmed. I literally squee'd a bit once I read that he was announced (I couldn't squee as loud 'cause I was in class at the time lol)

I'm definitely gonna play as him a lot, yes siree~! :b:

He's The Incredible Shulk! Nothing will stop him from having his dreams be fulfilled.

You know how we joked that Shulk would be the worst character against non-robots due to the Monado not harming homs? I just thought about that and...
The Monado can't harm the people with Zanza's blood, and since none of the other characters are created by Zanza, the Monado can slice through them, like a hot knife through butter!
Pretty neat attention to detail.
Then Shulk dittos would be an absolute nightmare to watch! I can't wait to see them give 1% damage to each other. :troll:

What do you guys think could work for Xenoblade items?

As random as it sounds, i think random Nopons could work as thrown items, in reference of that Riki's introduction cutscene:

Maybe with flower effect when you hit your opponent with them to reference Riki's arts.

I can't take the hate anymore.



Aside from that, I'm hoping one of Shulk's alts has glasses.

What was that song playing when they were revealing Shulks' moves? Sorry, haven't played Xenoblade...

And now if you'll excuse me, I have a trailer to watch...again...

And why is the Monado cut off in the series symbol? Does it appear like this at some point in the game, or is it just a weird decision they made? I don't remember seeing it be that short in any pictures, but I don't know why they would crop it instead of making the entire Monado's silhouette the symbol.
I don't know if anyone had answered this yet, but it's from the game's loading screen:

It feel so great Shulk having his own sub-page now. All those months, years we were hoping he'd be in Smash 4 is finally real.

Even though we knew he was in thanks to the leak, it still feels surreal to see it be official. He has his own subforum, we now have a trailer and official pictures, and there's now a page for him on the Smash site. It's...incredible. It feels so surreal, and so wonderful. On that note, I feel like watching the trailer again. I JUST CAN'T STOP <3

So many people have Shulk avatars. I have to look at usernames since I'm almost unable to identify users by their avatar anymore :p

Shulk is such a jerk. I don't like him.

Bowser was just on a jog, minding his own business, and then Shulk jumps out of nowhere and ruins his day.

0/10 Would not watch again.

I used to be hooked on Robin/Lucina's trailer, but man, I just can't stop re-watching Shulk's video, switching constantly between the Japanese and English version.

I really wished I owned my own copy of Xenoblade.. Guess I can wait for the 3DS version. :p

It's amazingly satisfying to think....a week ago, we were all just speculating on how Shulk could play out in Smash Bros.....and now look at us. So much can change on such short notice. It's almost strange.....I no longer have to wait for Pics of the Day with the fear of seeing Shulk getting AT'd :p

as of now, the 3ds version looks low frame rate and kind of muddy. I'd go for the Wii version, it'll only take a couple hours to get in on the hype

I think it'll still be awhile till it is out and if the New 3ds is stronger then the Wii then I think it'll be able to handle it

@ T.R "River" T.R "River" Your signature is seriously like one of the best things ever in history...seriously. Especially since it features Shulk and Robin, my two most wanted newcomers and the two characters I'll more than likely be co-maining (though Shulk will more than likely have priority) :shades:

to be fair, this thread was kinda always like that. Sprinkled with Dunbans, Heropons and a few Fioras of course.

There needs to an event where Shulk has to fight Lady Palutena seeing as she's a god and all.

Some people switched up their Shulk avatar, plus, newer people with Shulk avatars have finally shown their faces around the forums. The first part is the main reason why I have to check usernames now. At least until I adjust.

I'm kind of dissapointed Reyn wasn't part of his final smash.

But, then again, I used a party of Dunban, Riki and Shulk for most of the game, so that's kind of cool. (it's also arguably the best setup when using Dunban as the main)

Hopefully Reyn is an assist trophy or maybe...

Reyn confirmed?
