Free for all match with my siblings (we're a total of 4 luckily). I'll probably kick their asses as well.

Play as the starter character I'm most excited for in training(In brawl this was Olimar), then play as everyone in training.
Then start workin' on them unlocks. I'll resist the urge t look up hidden characters, so I can recapture the magic of unlocking in melee.

Stream, preferably a day 1 tourney of my scene in the Japanese version that I plan to import, and if not that, showcase the game with a friend doing things on demand for stream monsters.

After I buy the game I'll probably slip it inside my jacket and run out of the store, afraid someone will try to steal it, even though I'll most likely be the only one within a 20 mile radius trying to buy it. I've never started smash with friends around, I hope they aren't busy the day I get smash because I want us to get good together.

I have two siblings that I'm gonna play SSB4 with. Planning on unlocking all characters/stages on the first day, and of course completing adventure mode.
The next day will be spent with normal matches with items, experiencing the gameplay/characters/stages.
From the week after and beyond, competitive play will be the primary focus. Getting down the advanced techniques and mastering my character.

I have no idea really. This game's still quite unveiled, and there's many things we'll be seeing in the future.

Might reply on this a year after.

for me, the first thing I'il check, as weird as it sound is the menu. I want to know if the music is good and if the menu feel 'flat' like brawl. because in melee, the menu was pretty good but in brawl, it's more flat and less detailed (I'm not talking about the accessibility but the aesthetic)

First, I want to unlock all the characters and stages and then I can pick from there which characters I want to play with this time around. I'll have to see how my mains (Zelda/Jiggs) have changed in this game. Then I want to try out WFT!

I'll probably just go into the Story Mode or Classic Mode and pick the character I liked the most from seeing various trailers and pictures of them as they were anoounced and/or leaked. xD

Stay away from anywhere I can get spoiled. I don't want any secret **** revealed before I play the game :<

The same thing I've did with Melee and Brawl :

Classic 2 min. long fight with Mario vs. Bowser in Classic Battlefield with Classic music based on the Main Theme in the background.

Oh Classic yeah.

Play some 1v1 against my brother for a few hours. I'll keep the tradition alive by picking Bowser first, as I did in Melee and Brawl.

Try to unlock everything first. After that, just practice with my brother.

Play a demo station at Gamestop if one is available; I remember my local store held a small tournament (which was won by a Peach player) and then let everyone play free-for-alls until midnight rolled around. After actually buying the game? Can see it going one of two ways:

1. My friends and I play a match on our 3DSs on the spot.
2. We all rush home and start unlocking all the content, probably the most fun part of any new Smash game.

I remember that Gamestop tournament. I dunno about the others but my local Gamestop had items on with two minute matches. It was pretty gay.

Play multi against COMS with all the starting newcomers once, then put it on random and go hog wild until something unlocks.

Do what I always do with a new Smash: go to Versus mode and try out all the new characters, then proceed to go about unlocking a bunch of them by checking online. (I know, I know, I'm a cheater, but I'm often so eager to unlock everything that quite frankly I don't give a damn.)

Most likely the same I did with Brawl, gather a bunch of friends and play it until we unlock everything through Vs battles,

Select the character I'm most hyped to play etc...

Play as Pit in training mode to get used to him and his new moves (Bowser goes 2nd) while choosing a character I don't like much to be my punching bag. If Palutena is playable and is a starter, then I'll play as her first. If she is playable but is a secret character, I'll try to unlock her after getting used to the new Pit.

First I will try out the newcomers on every single stage possible, then I will look at all the other veterans and look for moveset changes, then I will start unlocking all the characters.

Try out my main man Link to see how he holds up in this iteration of Smash, then proceed to unlock Mega Man. With Link if possible.
