Hey guys, everyones not favorite imposter is back.
1) Squirtle, Ivysaur, Snake are not present in the roster. The two games have a platform that can install DLC but there are currently no plans from Sakurai. But that might change soon from namco
2) All veterans I haven't mentioned will be returning from brawl
3) Mewtwo is returning but his final smash is not transforming to a mega evolution before you ask
4) Miis are only selectable through special brawl matches (as well as customizable movesets) through a toggle option. You can save a handful of Miis to your save file. You can only play these matches using a mii with friends or local; not online. They replace the random button box when toggled on; as the special mode emphasizes specific set up matches. They are entirely customizable in the sense that you can give them a mix of other characters special moves with slightly different animations. People also can toggle weight and speed depending on their mii. Everyone however has the same grabs and basic attacks animations but have different percentages based on height and weight. Someone at treehouse made a "Thor" mii and gave him a mix of Kirby's side hammer attack, Marths special recovery, Pikachus down thunder, and DKs punch.
5) Palutena is another newcomer to smash bros, along with Hades. She will be revealed on E3 along with Ness.
7) Isaac from golden sun is in the game as well. He is voiced by Lloyd's (Tales of) VA.
8) There were 4 characters added to the game after the initial roster was decided. A third party rep, ROB, Bandana Dee, Mike Jones. This is according to the latest beta build the team got late last year in 2013 with another build we got in March of this year.
9) There is a namco rep, which you'll have stay tuned who it is
I'd link the thread but I'm not quite sure how. Nice he finally says who we'll see at E3 though, now we know he's full of **** when it happens.
EDIT: Figured it out, I hate 4chan.
