Anyone else wonder how they're going to do All-Star mode this time?

All-star Mode always has you fight through the entire roster of characters. This game will probably have around 50 characters, how are they going to do that?

Do they really expect us to beat All-Star 50 times and against 50 opponents each time to get trophies?

Around 50? Maybe... but I tend to doubt it. I'm thinking closer to 40-45. And honestly that wouldn't make it that much longer than Brawl's all star mode, especially if most of the new comers are from existing franchises... which idk. Regardless I don't think it'll be an issue.

Sakurai stated that this game probably won't have many more characters than Brawl. If I remember correctly, the exact wording was "as many characters as Brawl", but I could be wrong.

In Melee's All-Star Mode, as you advanced, more than one opponent would fight you per match. This in return speeds up the process of facing all the playable characters.

The game won't be around 50 characters. Sakurai said that he'll make the game based on quality over quantity. The All-Star mode will be the same length as Brawl's.

Are the extra spots on the character list, on the official site, representative of the final number of combatants?
If so, that's fewer than 30, I think........

I honestly don't know what slots you are referring to, but I doubt it. Sakurai has already said that cutting characters is hard on him. There is no way he is cutting at least 10 (More depending on how many more new comers we get).

The site character selector on the bottom has 22 slots (11 per page).

This has led some to believe that there will be 33 characters or 44 characters or something, but I think that's silly reasoning. I don't think they've planned that far ahead with the site's layout. I don't think the slots on the website have any sort of relevance whatsoever.

In regards to the actual topic, if they keep doing what they did in Brawl (grouping characters by franchise), it wouldn't be so bad. Maybe we'll get 4 heart containers this time. =P

I honestly don't think we're going to see 50 characters in this game. I actually feel like 45 is expecting too much, honestly...

EDIT: wait a minute..... CyberSai.... That you??

Sorry, but I've never gone by the tag of CyberSai.^^;;
If you ever see the name I'm currently using on another website, though, it's probably me.^_-

As to the topic, well, I'll be happy if we even reach the benchmark of 30 characters aside from the mainstays.

Haha, sorry, I was referring to the creator of the thread, but that's totally my bad.
