Can't Let you cut me Sakurai, Wolf for DLC

[[Obnoxshush/Dasshizer]]

There's still the Digital Event guys!

Yeah, of course now we have to wait some more, Hopefully the data miners will have all the details by the end of today.

 

[Kirbyfan391]

Well, Sakurai mentioned how Roy was from Melee, and Lucas was from Brawl.
Really stretching it, but maybe this hints at Wolf because Wolf+Lucas=2 characters from Brawl and Mewtwo+Roy=2 characters from Melee therefore it's balanced.

Exactly, this only improves Wolfs chances, just 2 more days guys!

 

[Shroob]

Before y'all expect Wolf to be shown off, you really should wait until Star Fox WiiU at least gets a proper reveal at E3. If they're going to use Wolf to promote it, they're going to at least wait until the game is shown off first.

 

[Diddy Kong]

They just released 3 characters at once. I see no need to be dissapointed. This will probably only mean that Wolf will be linked with other DLC characters. Maybe Ice Climbers, or the like? Sakurai did mention that Lucas and Roy especially where really popular. Well, I can't imagine Wolf not coming back because he's probably about as popular as both.

That and supposedly Wolf is one of Sakurai's favorite characters. He wanted Wolf to be in Melee after all but there wasnt time.

 

[SmashChu]

I don't think we'll see Wolf during the digital direct. They would have just shown him off during the presentation. There is more content coming in August, and I wouldn't be surprised if he wasn't announced then. He'll likely return because of fan demand and the fact he'd be easy to implement.

 

[CannonStreak]

Say, do you guys really think there will be a Smash reveal at the Digital Event at E3? Just curious.

I'm hopeful but unsure. I kind of agree with what @ SmashChu said about wolf coming in august.

 

[Logo12]

I'm not sure, and that will mostly not affect me either, E3 doesn't happen here.

If Wolf doesn't appear there, then all my motivation and hope is lost, because our 2-month wait will have been wasted, and we would need to wait further or to accept the fact that Sakurai may really not make Wolf return.

Who knows, we can only wait... or find dataminers to seek anything positive

 

[Tortilla Noggin]

Sorry to tag you again, @InASnowBoundLand , but your idea is worth re-posting!

Guys, this from the K. Rool thread. It's definitely worth doing for Wolf, too.

Don't have access to my WII U/3DS right now, but those that do consider making a post in support of #KrocTheVote/K.Rool in Diddy and DK's miiverse image communities. Maybe some other characters that thematically match up like Bowser, King DeDeDe, might work too. Free advertising!!! Link back to your post here so we can give it a yeah, too!

Every single pigeon in the world wants their instant gratification.

This is a tough blow to take. I thought for sure Wolf was coming back if Lucas could, but now? I'm not so sure.

I am unsure myself. Hopefully, there is a reveal in the Digital Event.

Please wait... Error. Please wait... Error. Please wait... Error. Please wait... Error. Please wait... Error. Please wait... Error. Please wait... Error. Please wait... Error.

I've just gotten in and am getting the stuff I want now, but it's very slow.

[themasterofcircuits]

Okay, so this may or may not mean anything, but I felt the need to point it out. There are minor spoilers to the direct, but we basically had it spoiled yesterday so..yeah.

Anyways, it had to do with amiibos (in particular the last 4 characters without an announced one). Duck Hunt, G&W, Falco, and R.O.B. had their amiibos announced in the mini direct today.

Now, Dark Pit and Palutena are set to release in July in NA. This means this Septermber, all of the amiibo that haven't been released yet will come out then. But, look at this:

Notice anything? We're missing somebody. We're missing Falco. G&W, R.O.B., and Duck Hunt are here. This means every single fighter in Smash 4 (including mii fighters) has a time frame for their amiibo release... except Falco. Not to mention, Sakurai mentioned that those three were retro fighters, clearly indicating Falco was the odd man out with no explanation.

Now, this may just be wishful thinking, but it may not be a coincidence that Falco was saved for last. What if he was pushed to be released to the DLC characters because they wanted to release Falco and Wolf together?

Any thoughts? I might just be overthinking it, but it makes too much sense to me.

 

[CaptainJimmBob]

Wolf revealed at E3 or sometime later. Stop doubting it. Really though, stop doubting something that is incredibly likely. There is a chance that it won't happen (a slim chance), but saying Roy and Ryu are bad additions simply because they are not Wolf is wrong.

 

[Ura]

I'm actually hoping for a Mewtwo-like reveal for Wolf at the Digital Event now that we had 3 characters released.

There doesn't have to be any gameplay footage. It can just be a still picture of Wolf like the one for Mewtwo along with a release date (July, August, or September). That would get everyone hyped.

 

[MapleWooD]

Just watched the direct, Ryu looks hella OP

Oh, but he's "difficult" to use, which balances him out. Just like G&W is balanced because he has the 9, but sucks in everything else.

 

[Smashoperatingbuddy123]

Guys stop doubt

Im so sure wolf will be revealed that im willing to wager for him to be shown at the digital direct or during E3

 

[BKupa666]

Dunno what's been said on the previous pages, but did anyone catch Sakurai's quote about "he hopes fans are happy with the particularly popular veterans he brought back"? I can't imagine him completely overlooking Wolf for later, but he may still need ballot support at this rate.

 

[Nauzgo]

It could really be the case that another DLC fighter gets announced on Tuesday. Because we don't have anymore known future fighters, so they might reveal one on E3 so we have something to hype about.

 

[Shroob]

I still say before we start acting like headless chickens, we should wait for the Star Fox WiiU reveal.

EXACTLY! It's not like they'd want us to wait until August to reveal the new character.

This character is pretty much waiting for curtain call

And pretty exspected

Not too much hype the only hype is him confirmed thats it.

 

[Yoshisaurus Rex]

Yeah, there is still E3 on Tuesday to look forward to. I honestly see Wolf helping to promote Star Fox U in some way such as pre ordering the game will give you a free download code for Wolf. August would be one heck of a wait though despite it being my birthday month.

 

[SimonBarSinister]

Well that was an interesting presentation. I was not expecting Dream Land to return(along with Hyrule Castle and Peach's Castle N64 in the near future)so I'm happy about that, and Ryu looks somewhat interesting, I'll be sure to give him a try. It's slightly disappointing that there was nothing related to Wolf there, but we aren't done yet. We still have the Digital Event to look forward to, which is the most likely place we'd see something so let's not start panicking just yet.

 

[TheDarkKnightNoivern]

Say, do you guys really think there will be a Smash reveal at the Digital Event at E3? Just curious.

I think so, I doubt they'll leave us till the next direct without announcing anything

 

[Logo12]

Oh, but he's "difficult" to use, which balances him out. Just like G&W is balanced because he has the 9, but sucks in everything else.

Idk, looks like a Melee Fox 2.0 to me, if not a Brawl Meta Knight 2.0 or even Hoo-hah 2.0

@ themasterofcircuits Wow nice inspection you've got there :S

 

[dangeraaron10]

I am quite confident that Wolf will coincide with the Star Fox U reveal. Nintendo seems excited to announce it, if its name drop from Zelda U interviews was anything to go by. Wolf is just as popular as Lucas so it would be too strange to overlook. There's two more "marios" on that datamine anyway after Mewtwo, Lucas, Roy, and Ryu. I'm thinking Wolf and the Ballot Winner will take the final two slots. It would just be too strange to have Lucas return but not Wolf, those two feel like a bundle package.

I will eat a sock if Wolf doesn't end up as DLC.

And by sock I mean a waffle that's shaped like a sock. I will PERSONALLY carve my waffle to make it sock shaped for this occasion.

 

[Oracle_Summon]

Wolf is most likely to be announced alongside a new Smash Brothers character. The best chance that Wolf has is to be announced alongside the E3 2015 showing of Star Fox Wii U.

 

[Serell]

The one thing they didn't show in the direct was the new characters in the works. They showed Lucas, Roy, and Ryu, and gave us all those characters. I think at E3, they'll show the new upcoming characters. And with a new Star Fox game, highly likely they'll tie in it with Wolf.

 

[Rosalinatehplumber]

Yeah, we all need to calm down. This doesn't hurt his chances at all. I knew Roy and Ryu were coming. This is better because he can be finished before the ballot. Just keep on praying. If the Roy fans can do it, so can we. They went through all that trouble and now he's here. Keep thinking negative and he won't be in the game. He still has a good chance. Show your support and don't doubt yourself.

 

[dangeraaron10]

Do we know if 1.08 has been datamined yet like Mewtwo's patch was which dug up Roy and Ryu?

 

[MapleWooD]

This gives me an idea, brb

EDIT: Just payed the Roy General Thread a visit asking if they would kindly help support Wolf seeing as their character made it in.

Good idea. We need as many supporters as we can get if we want to see Wolf return to Smash 4.
