Character Select Screen as of now

Hmm..how does this stack up against our supposed 35 player roster? Anyone care to share their insight on the matter?

 

[TheMuffinMan0311]

7 more characters to unlock =O

 

[2L84U]

8more to deconfirm the 35s

 

[Revven]

Well, I think it's actually going diagonal. However, so far, it will round of to 35... because we have what the 35 said (Falco, Marth) so far. I wouldn't debunk the 35 until we know the entire roster, this is just telling us we had the wrong idea on how it was going to be set up.

Edit: Actually, if you look, one more character on the top will make Kirby slide to the right, right above Metaknight who is right above King Dedede. Coincidence? I think not. But, I'll wait.

 

[Dry Bones]

where is Ness?

 

[iluvnintendo1983]

There's room for 39 characters there, I don't see why it would have to stop at 35! (If the random icon moves once you unlock everyone...there's room for 40!)

 

[BlackPhoenix]

not unlocked yet?

 

[BananaX]

I'm loving all of the new redone characters, but it is disappointing that the 35 character roster is likely real. It seems like the Ancient Minister is some form of R.O.B....

 

[KosukeKGA]

Ness, Jiggs, Ganondorf, Sonic

32

 

[Xsyven]

With the exception of Falcon's placement, it looks perfect so far.

I hate this roster for one reason, they are randomly tossed around.

At least Melee's roster had each character grouped by series. Mario and Luigi next to each other, Pikachu, Jigglypuff, and Mewtwo next to each other, ect. This roster seems jumbled everywhere and randomly.

 

[kashikomarimashita]

Lets keep our fingers crossed and hope for more than just 35

Once all characters are unlocked it'll be ordered nicely and vertically

 

[Wolffe]

Blah, the whole thing needs shifting along, and Pit underneath Samus suggests no Metroid characters

 

[ElectroBlade]

Is that real?!?

 

[iluvnintendo1983]

Unfortunately...now that I look at it closer, there is only room for 35 characters. There just isn't quite enough room to have 10 icons on each row...so there will be 4 rows of 9.

35 character roster...here we come.

 

[Eszett]

I noticed that the characters in the second row who share a franchise with a character in the first row are offset one column to the right.

Check out Mario, Donkey Kong, Link, Kirby, Fox, and Pikachu. Their "pair" character lies in the next column over and down a row. This could be further extended to the Marth-Ike pair by arguing that Ike is in the eighth column of the second row, but instead gets pushed over to the first column of the third row to maintain the rectangular shape.

It would all perfectly line up if Mr. Game and Watch were removed and put in some other part of the selection screen. More support to the 35-character roster?

 

[Rakath]

It doesn't confirm it, as the same logic of sliding the characters around to get a 35 can also get a 39, 44, and 49 roster. In addition (I did it through testing a sliding roster in Notepad), you can still add reps to Donkey Kong series and Metroid series (although the organization is a bit akward for Mario and Pokemon series, it can be done). Until the cast is large enough to unlock a 9th and/or 10th column, or a 5th row, 35 is neither proven nor disproven.

YOU KNEW THAT

SO THIS MEANS 35 IS TRUE

:'(

 

[Sairou]

Serebii says that it lines up vertically correctly when all characters are unlocked. Is he confirming the 35 character roster?! xD

 

[DumHonkey]

35 I an odd number. So I say no.

 

[DumHonkey]

35 is an odd number. So I say no. Unless there is a quarter charter box or soemthing. Either way, I am pleased with this game.

 

[LeuMasT]

Erm, 4 x 9 is 36. Doesn't guarantee 35.

 

[Marzy]

I'm loving that character roster. It's perfect for me and there's still some missing from there. I reckon there's more Pokemon to come, considering Melee had more than that.

 

[GaryCXJk]

Don't forget the random button.

 

[Rash]

To be honest, I think that with minimal shrinkage there's room for 10 more characters on that thing.

 

[DMAJohnson]

Random character box takes up a space, people. -_-

 

[agag19]

There were 25 characters in Melee. So saying 35 is an odd number and therefore not true is ridiculous.

 

[Limon]

36 - Random box = 35

I'm going to cry... I though we would have more than 40... I got my hopes too high -.-

 

[SuperLink9]

The 35 roster is real! It's REEEAAAALLL !

 

[DMAJohnson]

Nooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[SuperLink9]

Copied shamelessly from another thread.

Missing 4 characters, Jiggs, Wolf, Sonic, Young Link.

 

[kidicaruspwner]

^ that roster is fake. there is no sonic. well, it could just be not finished, but i don't know. Why ther be no sonic?

 

[Desruprot]

This has Sonix WWLink, CFalcon, I think this is mostly the complete roster...

 

[VanillaMummy]

Right now it doesn't look like the rows are going to be in order like people said...

Actually, it does. Look at the image Desruprot posted - most of them are already aligned vertically. All thats needed is Wolf beneath Falco, pushing the others after him in that row on and moving Bowser down to row 4, and it'll be perfect.

Just Wolf left to go...
