Super Smash Bros. for WiiU & 3DS director Masahiro Sakurai said: "Pic of the day. The Flying Men that appear in the Magicant stage will ally with the first fighter that touches them. Watch out for their flying cross-chop attacks! They also accumulate damage, and a grave gets erected every time a Flying Man falls in battle. And of course, only up to five Flying Men can appear at a time."

Did Sakurai just reveal Ness to those who didn't know about him avoiding spoilers? I know most people know by now, but Sakurai even put a "Secret Characters Unveiled" section on the main site. Seems a bit pointless with this pic of the day when he goes out of his way to avoid spoilers in my opinion.

Hides Ness away in the "Secret Fighters Unveiled!" section.
Shows Ness in a Pic of the Day to be put on the front page of the website.

Eh, everyone needs to be spoiled. I think he put those character under "Secret Characters" just for pretenses.

I find it hilarious people thought the 3DS images would be finally over after the Japanese release and then the International release. Hilarious. I don't mind them though as I like the 3DS version and we will be getting further 3DS PotD until the Wii U release.

Umm dude fun is subjective and this is coming from a casual smash fan.
BTW you spelled "almost" wrong.

"Mr. Sakurai, we finished putting the three characters on the website, they're in a secret section and there's a spoiler warning and everything, sir!"
"Good."
"What's next, sir?"
"Me casually revealing one of them and their stage on the Pic of the Day and the front page of the website without saying their name at all."
"Uhhh... si-"
"Yes, I'm still alive."

It seems odd Ness was a hidden character yet not Captain Falcon, and vise versa. And I will never understand the logic behind making Wario of all people a hidden character.
Especially considering the two former were available from the start in Melee and the latter from Brawl. Even more so is that Jigglypuff is the last to be unlocked chronologically in battle numbers. I understand having a lot of formally introduced characters available from the start (from the early dev. stage), but the initial roster seems less "veterans ready to go" and more "slew of newcomers in the mix to see who can get beat up the most." At least, that's how I viewed it.

Flying Man is more than an "assist trophy" given how smart he is about staying on the stage. I thought he'd go away after a short time, but when he stayed for nearly the whole match... I disposed of him myself. Was he supposed to be an early concept of the amiibo? Because that's what it feels like to me, of course assuming amiibos will function the same way.

Flying Man is so well fleshed out, if you were to show me footage of him before release I would've believed he was a playable character.

Still, I wish there were an option to disable features like this sometimes. It's a fun feature when you're just fooling around, but unfortunately, he's probably the only reason Magicant can't* be a competitive stage. Likewise with Yellow Devil. Buuut since the game's already released, there's no sense keeping my eggs in that basket...

Flying man should have been a character.

DLC Flying Man and the Magnus and Saki Assist Trophies, to be honest they all have most of the moves required and I'd play the heck out of Flying Man

Tell that to the Masked Man fanboys. They will tear you to shreds.
What the hell is masked man gonna do? Pick you up and shake you? He has no skills that Sakurai can take off him while staying true to the character and series.

But birdman... he's a full fledged mma fighter
