In a game that Sakurai is trying to balance, there's little need to worry about certain characters being "too" weak/strong compared to the rest of the cast.
Sure, we might have some characters that are more advantageous over others....but I honestly think there won't be a "bad" character this time around.
...like Gannon and Pichu were...

*Was afk*
Mirror mirror on the wall, who's Liquid of them all?:yoshi2: Although I never eggsactly said he's guaranteed, I did go on saying he's the one of Super Smash Brothers meaning, disregarding his O12 status since it's not something Falcon holds onto as a crutch.
Falcon is the only O12 character that can viably hold that crutch, so...

Given how they revealed Captain Falcon, I'm pretty sure Mewtwo is making it into that final trailer. Mewtwo's demand to be in Smash is far greater than the Captain's. Plus, he was skipped over for a generation, and that means bringing him back will bring even bigger hype.
It is simply expected that Falcon will be in. Thus, there isn't much clamoring for him. It doesn't mean fewer people wanted Falcon. I bet nearly everyone wanted Falcon back, but no one suspected Sakurai to be so dense as to cut him.

Mewtwo was already cut once, so of course there will be an outcry for his return. It's not a comparable situation.

You may want to address which Ganon you mean & which Pichu. Melee Ganon was boss while Brawl Pichu is A tier currently.:p

Falcon can do more than just hold it.:shades:

Brawl's Gannondorf

I miss Pichu. It's on a small concealed level but I do dread over Pichu's cut from time to time. How else am I gonna have fun & handicap myself beating other players?!
EDIT: Pichu is in my favor of being DLC low-priority for the DLC pack name:
So you wanna be a Master?! Of Pokemon!

If they are going to do a trailer with Mewtwo in it at all, it would be cool to see him and Ness together. Whether it would be Ness and Mewtwo together against Bowser Jr., or Ness and Duck Hunt Dog versus Mewtwo, either way, I just love the idea of those two together.

I could go for seeing a psychic duo.

Or Mewtwo and Dr. Mario rising out of Melee against everyone else.

Ooooor everyone else fighting each other and Mewtwo just rolls up and screws with everything.

Man, I would love a Dr. Mario+Mewtwo trailer. And...if Snake is amoung them saying "Keep you waiting, uh!" My mind would explode!

Snake is in "never ever" territory now, bud. DLC or bust. Don't set yourself up for disappointment.

A daily reminder that

1999 BURGER KING MEWTWO IS NOT AMUSED BY PETTY NONBELIEVERS!


-Yes, it's actually a Burger King toy from 1999
-Its eyes used to light up, but that was over half my life ago Q_Q

meh. thats the only reason why anyone would use him. for an (unfair) challenge against other players. if pichu gets in before mewtwo i will be angry. but if it does get in it will prolly be a punching bag :p

Needs more of this.



And of course we can't forget Mew...





The tears of Mew fans that day were unlike any other I tell you, my own included.

I still don't understand why Sakurai stood up during the XY conference to comment on Mewtwo being in smash, i believe the roster was finalized in 2012 right? So his comment was after this. So he must have done something with our most wanted character i must think.

Also, do you guys think anyone at PAX asked about it and got a straight answer they could give us when the endorsement is over?

I know it's a stupid question but it may give us something to talk about...

He wants to keep fans guessing. Or he never considered it and pulled something out his rear for a quick answer. Or it made him reconsider, kind of how Lucina came to be.

But the thing he did most was give people hope imo and, IF (i believe he is) Mewtwo is not playable he shattered that hope with a falcon punch :'(

He could have just as well not stood up. He wasn't part of the panel, he was a spectator.

This video is pretty good: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2x8DTpQpiQ0

If Mewtwo isn't back... Then I'm sorry to say... that Sakurai is stupid. I really don't wanna say it because I worship Smash and Sakurai is it's creator, he's a god. But there is no damn excuse! Mewtwo has SO many points making him an priority in the game. I've been holding my breath for so long... Just 12 more days. (unless Mewtwo isn't in the game yet and there is DLC characters for when Wii U version comes out)

Please Sakurai, I'll never forgive you for what you've done... T_T

He chose to stand up, which raises the question of why.

But one cannot claim to know Sakurai's manner of thought.

You really should watch what you say. I want Mewtwo as much as the next guy, but his exclusion does not mean Sakurai's an idiot.

This thread moves insanely quickly. I dunno what we're really talkin' about right now, but I just wanted to add that I think Shulk's confirmation only confirms the other charaacters leaked in the ESRB videos and neither confirms nor denies Mewtwo's inclusion.

Still holding out hope, but I'm kinda done speculating and worrying about it now. I just want this to be over D:

Watch what I say? But I mean it. He would REALLY be STUPID. (I said stupid, not idiot. Idiot is a verb, stupid is an adjective)

I could say much worse things... But that's just out of anger. I really only say what I really mean.

Well, true. Comments like those can be interpreted as flaming, and we all know he Smash community has the entire floor covered in gasoline that sparks if something as simple as a leak or comment comes down, filling in for the metaphorical match.

I personally won't question your opinion, but I can't talk for the dozens in this thread.

And yes, I'd be mad at Sakurai too, but I'd move on.
