Yeah, I think she says something like "Oh my, you came back?". No mention of Dark Pit, or "Kuroi Pitto". (Black Pit)He doesn't eehhh? And it took a month to realize this.
Looks I know what I'm adding in my RTC post about Dark Pit?
There is evidence that Dark Pit will play differently though, in the form of using different weapons. There's no proof either way though, it's all speculation at this point. We're really just going to have to wait and see what Sakurai has in store.
You mean Jumpman? I personally would like to see Duck Hunt Dog as that "retro joke" character.
You're forgetting to include the context behind that quote. The article definitely came across that they had asked about using the touchscreen or something similar as controls that are exclusive to the gamepad, the sentence both right before and right after what you quoted support that. It doesn't necessarily mean that he's against using the gamepad in any way, just for controls.
As an alt or an individual character?
Alt for Paper Mario
(I think he probably meant his own character, but it would be cool if he had 8bit alts for normal mario, Samus, etc).
There is no evidence that he will play different. He could play differently due to his background easily. But there is no proof in trailer or anything that he, if in Smash 4, would do any more than be visible and audible. Which means he's likely a Pit alt. Just as Lucina was going to be for Marth.
An individual joke retro character separate from Mario. He will have a somewhat mixed mechanic between Mario and Mr. Game & Watch, but not emulate nor be a clone of either.
I'm going to consider this quote as a reference to the Rayman fan boys. As soon as a Rayman trophy is revealed, they go berserk.
In which case, there's no evidence either way. We haven't seen gameplay or anything like that. He could play exactly like Pit, but here is no proof in the trailer or anything.
I'm confused. How does Dark Pit's appearance in Palutena's trailer mean he's not going to be a playable character? Does that mean Mr. Game & Watches appearance in Pac-man's trailer mean he's not playable either?
Ridley didn't get splash art, and he was teased in the "Boss Appearance" section for the video. Ridley deconfirmed as well? Not necessarily. I think you're jumping to conclusions prematurely (to be fair, I was guilty of this for a while as well).
It's a "pattern" with some of the characters in this game that were confirmed to be playable. Of course, like all "patterns" that the fans latch on to, there's a good chance that it may not pertain to anything in the end. After all, there is nothing that implies that characters whose name is stated prior to a trailer will never be playable. So, I doubt it has any merit.
That would be strange. Dark Pit doesn't work for Medusa, Hades, or the Underworld Army. This is made pretty clear in the game.
It should be noted that this article was published back in June of 2013. A lot of things can change in a year. Though with that said, exclusive GamePad functionalities should not be expected if we are only going by Sakurai's words, but at this point I would take anything Sakurai says with a grain of salt and nothing more.
I do understand the precedent, but at the same time, I do not necessarily find it to be entirely feasible. I always assert that I do not believe in coincidence; however, this honestly seems as though that could be the case. I doubt he decided that he wanted to allude to each and every character in a discernible way for the purpose of satisfying an arbitrary pattern that makes his reveals entirely predictable, I would presume that he would prefer to do the antithesis of this. It has indeed been the case thus far, but it is not objectively certain until it is confirmed in each and every instance. I am more concerned with the overt hint at Pittoo to be honest, this insinuates that he wants us (the feeble minded) to believe that he is a playable character. Why would he want us to believe such? Or was he aware that many would be skeptical for the very same reason that everyone regurgitates? In that event, Pittoo is hidden in plain sight to the vast majority of speculators. There is no denying that despite the precedence, his allusion is unprecedented. So it is not logical to assert one way or the other without more information. However, I am not one to stand idly by when new evidence is presented to us. Based on Sakurai's statements, Dark Pit is at the very least, a plausible potential roster selection choice. I have not been incorrect thus far, so I am going to have faith in my speculating abilities. They tell me that Dark Pit is not just any alternate costume.
The 8-bit transformation has been a running gag in the Mario RPG games, even going back as far as the SNES one. That would be a cool idea if Paper Mario were playable.Alt for Paper Mario
I don't know how Duck Hunt Dog is related to Mario, but the FS sounds awesome. I understand that Duck Hunt was bundled with the original Mario Bros. game at one point, though.
I believe that she was confirmed to be a Marth clone,we are not entirely sure to what extent; however, it seems apparent that she is almost a full clone with a differing mechanic. She does not have "tippers," the damage is consistent throughout the blade regardless of whether or not you space properly. Albeit, she has a Guile taunt, that makes her better than Marth.
A friend and I were talking about all classic nintendo characters getting Retro Alts as a DLC Pack (for any character that has a 8-Bit or Retro version that is). Also possibly Yarn Alts for Kirby Characters
Lucina is indeed a Marth clone. The funny part is though, I'm excited for her just to use her "Marth" disguise.
Now all she needs is a theme song that goes with everything.I believe that she was confirmed to be a Marth clone,we are not entirely sure to what extent; however, it seems apparent that she is almost a full clone with a differing mechanic.

As a "somewhat" Marth player, I'm looking forward to playing the pair just to see how they match up.A friend and I were talking about all classic nintendo characters getting Retro Alts as a DLC Pack (for any character that has a 8-Bit or Retro version that is).

It is indeed a circular argument; nevertheless, it amuses my black soul. If I could not handle redundant arguments, I would have left long ago.

So anyways, what do you guys believe Pittoo's Final Smash will be?
You're right.
I can see King K. Rool as a possibility.
should be playable. whose with me!?!?!???Fixed, I sense some people here might actually get offended about him being called a "her"
King K. Rool and Ice Climbers have Smash Run enemies, but that is not enough to convince me, as it seems to convince others, that they are indeed playable.
lucina being a clone/semi clone of marth pretty much gurantees wolf in my eyes and i thought he would be in before that too,
That is completely and utterly odd considering that Wolf is neither a clone or a semi-clone.
One of my favorite pokemon. Lets do it !!!
i probably shouldve clarified that i believe lucina confirms lugified clones as well like wolf
Wolf is totally a "Semi-Clone" along with Falco
Lucina is the very opposite of Luigified. If Sakurai's statements about her are true (and based on what we've seen of her), she's literally just Marth with a few hitbox changes and missing his tipper.
We really just need a Pokemon version of Smash Bros. There's too much character potential!
