I don't see how it matters since we'll probably know the entire roster by the end of the day... I just wanna hear the Final Destination theme... Glad 3DS music is convertible now...

Fingers crossed for Bowser Jr. with Koopaling alts, everyone! It makes sense honestly, Bpwser Jr. and the seven Koopalings would in total make 8 alts, which is what every character gets in the game. At first, I was a little fan-ragey that Bowser Jr. was getting in over Paper Mario as a Mario series newcomer, but from the leaked footage of Bowser Jr. that hopefully everyone here saw, he looks like a fantastic and fun character. So I'm totally down, he might even be my secondary main.

People are betting on the game breaking street date in a few places. This usually happens with at least one shop with a major release and shipments usually come in on or around Tuesdays for businesses. Since Japan is half a day ahead of the US, people are expecting someone to have the game before the night is over in the states. I doubt we'll know everything by then if that's true though. It's still gonna take time to unlock characters. I'd give it about 4 hours if someone just grinds matches.

Either way. That's where the "tonight" estimate is coming from.

Sounds like someone doesn't understand statistics or didn't actually follow the leak in question.
Sounds like someone has a stick up their starfish.

"People" are only sure about the video part, not the images? Don't make me lol. Tharja trophy and THE LOCKED ALL-STAR SELECT SCREEN....all fake, yeah, sure...

You mean other than the part where I said I believe it's true and not fake? I get the feeling you didn't actually read my full post.

I'm expecting a character reveal, from the leak or otherwise. I feel like Sakurai won't miss his last chance at generating massive hype. After the 3DS version is out the hype just won't be the same.

Still, I'm not getting my hopes up. I just think it's likely.

Sakurai would have to approve such an action, since no characters can be legally revealed without him knowing about it.

For each shop that gets the game, there's also one sneaky employee that sells it early to his/her friends. That's one universal truth.

I'm expecting leaks very soon.

If there's a reveal, I'm expecting Duck Hunt to take the spotlight for this one

Or a character from the mysterious 4/5 (If that exists)

Watching a new trailer would be cool and all, but the actual character reveal probably won't be all that exciting to me, considering any info we want to know about will be all over the place the following day.

Maybe. I don't really care beyond getting to see a cool trailer. Anyone who thinks this game won't break street date is sadly oblivious to the fact that there has never been a major release that didn't break street date. We will know all by at least Thursday.

The video starts after the noise and fire. We hear the flapping of a wing, and a picture of the sky. The camera moves towards the direction of the flapping and Ridley is shown.

He gets shot down and the camera pans towards the ground with the Duck Hunt Dog holding a Nintendo Zapper.
"DHD shoots the competition down!"

Cue footage of DHD in action along with sick NES rock guitar remix.

The video ends with Ridley on the ground saying "I'll get my chance another day."
After Ridley is picked up by the dog -by the neck- and the dog laughs as the video fades to black.
My favorite post here.

Crossing my fingers for an awesome G&W+ROB trailer.

That was a very long post just for semantics.
In my defense, I wouldn't have said anything if someone didn't decide to directly call out my wording on that. Otherwise, I'd be doing an equally long post on how breaking street date isn't technically a leak, because it's not internal from the company.

Also, I'm not really sure we'd get a G&W+ROB trailer since we've already seen Game and Watch in the Pac-man trailer and neither of those characters are new. Maybe ROB and Duck Hunt Dog, but probably not Game and Watch.

By the way, guys. I wouldn't get your hopes up on the Smash 3DS box just yet. It's likely someone printed out a sleeve mock-up and just slipped it under the case of another game (which has happened with major releases before just to get attention). I'd wait until someone actually tries to put up a stream or posts footage.

You shouldn't really expect anything, going off of past Treehouse events.

There almost HAS to be a trailer at ONE of the events though. Sakurai made it sound like they had at least 2 (maybe) reveal trailers after Robin/Lucina, meaning Shulk and one more. If there IS one, they HAVE to reveal it BEFORE the 3DS game comes out, otherwise it defeats the purpose. Nobody is going to be excited for a reveal trailer for a character that they already have access to.

If NOA/Sakurai were smart, they'd attempt to cut off leakers/Japan and just have a massive reveal of the full cast and have it be kind of similar to the SSB4 reveal trailer, showing off tons of characters, or multi-reveal like Robin's or Greninja's.

There's no way they can stop early leaks, but NOA will have lost any excitement they could provide once the game hits Japan, which is the only reason they're going to stream the build in the first place, to direct attention to them, so not revealing anything would be dumb.

I don't care if they reveal everything, or more likely don't, but it will be a missed opportunity to show us high quality footage/trailers of all the characters being our first view of them instead of more lulzy quality pics & video.

He said "We're reaching the bottom of the barrel for reveal trailers." Correct? I'd assume he means at least 2 more, maybe it's just me, but "bottom of the barrel" doesn't really mean "One".

He said it right before Lucina/Robin/C.Falcon.

So if he meant two more ( for the sake of argument), that would imply Shulk was one of the two. Leaving AT LEAST one left. Doesn't necessarily mean it has to be one. But there's no point in having reveal trailers AFTER the game comes out, so one is most likely.

And that's assuming he wasn't counting the Robin trailer in his 'few left'.

i think the tree house will be good.
nintendo reps know how to play.
I THINK they will spend an hour at least on some advanced techniques. 8 hours of game play??
they got something up there sleeve big time

8 hours of just smash? There ARE other games to be shown off. If anything it could be like SDCC, one round of smash, coverage of an upcoming title, a few rounds of Smash, rinse and repeat.

It says 8 hours "including" the new smash bros. That means 7 hours of retro mario and 1 hour of smash bros.
