^Read this first.

....The games are in order by japanese names. They also go in order by which smash game they first appeared in. First SSB64, then Melee, then Brawl. #s 2-14 are Melee. (#1 is Smash Bros.) There were 13 series in Melee. Ice Climbers were #14. The only possible character to fit into that spot is....

Mr. Game & Watch!

Discuss.

Why couldn't that slot be the first of the New Series?

As ing 1-13 are from Melee 14+ are new in Brawl?

It goes in the order of Smash games from 64-Brawl and in Alphabetical order...


...It only would have been a Brawl game IF Ice Climbers were icon 12 instead of 13

That doesn't make sense.

Why couldn't it be a new series, that has a letter high in the Japanese alphabet than D (for Animal Crossing)?

Yes it does, it's not a coincidence it has worked for everyone up to this point.

Game & Watch works because the slot is ONLY open to Melee charcters AND his name works alphabetically

No it isn't. Thats not stated anywhere, on the Dojo, and thats just fanbase assumption.

I'm not saying its bad assumption, I'm just saying that theoretically, if G&W isn't in the game, that slot #14 could be from a new series, that is higher on the alphabet than Animal Crossing is.

Edit:

Here.
Smash bros. is number 1
SSB64 is taking up slots 1-10
SSBM is taking up 11-13 or 11-14
and Brawl is 13/14 and up.

So, you could say that theoretically, if G&W isn't in, that 13 would be the last Melee slot, and 14 would start the Brawl series.

...Yes it is just fanbase assumption...that has worked up until this point....and there is only 1 slot left for a melee character

Game and Watch fits perfectly into slot 12...He's not in 14...he's in 12

Your not getting it

Slot 12 is the Fire Emblem sword. -.-



Edit:

Here:



Edit 2: and a link to the Dojo to ensure:
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/images/icon/world_b_12.gif
01: Dairantō Smash Brothers (Super Smash Bros.)
02: Donkī Kongu (Donkey Kong)
03: Fokkusu (Star Fox)
04: Hoshi no Kābii/Kābii (Kirby)
05: Kyaputen Farukon (F-Zero)
06: Metoroido (Metroid)
07: ??? (Most likely will be Mother/Earthbound)
08: Pokemon/Poketto Monsutā
09: Rinku (Zelda)
10: Sūpā Mario (Super Mario)
11: Yosshī (Yoshi)
12:Faia Emuburemu (Fire Emblem)
13:
14: (Ice Climbers)
15: Dōbutsu no Mori (Animal Crossing)
16: Made in Wario (Wario Ware, it's NOT Wario as a whole)
17:
18: Parutena no Kagami (Kid Icarus)

Who the hell else could fit in slot 13 (Yeah I made a mistake)

Not confirmed. You cannot say he's confirmed because of a theory.

You can say he's confirmed when he's updated on the Dojo or unlocked in the game.

I hate this bull**** where everyone jumps to a certain conclusion because of an update that has nothing to do with the conclusion they jump to.

"Mario has F.L.U.D.D! Luigi must have the Poltergust!" <---- that's a bunch of bull****, too. It's likely Luigi will have it, but Mario having his F.L.U.D.D. doesn't make it more likely.

Exactly the same here. I'm not saying he won't be in, and i'm not even saying that his icon won't be in the vacant spot. Hell, i'm not even saying that the theory is wrong. I'm just saying that it's a theory. Nothing more, nothing less.

It is by no means a way to confirm characters. Not at all.

Everything you assume to be true is nothing but a theory based on assumptions...so everything is relative anyway

Actually, no, they're right. Using logic, and a very good chunk of it at that.

You're example has people relying heavily on assumptions, whats shown here is flat out pattern recognition.

PsychoIncarnate - Sorry man, what do you mean by that? I don't assume very much about the game, and anything i do assume is just an assumption. All i'm saying is that people who are saying "G&W confirmed!" are wrong.

Kor - In my opinion it's not pattern recognition. The list swaps and changes franchise name with character name to make it alphabetical. While, of course, it is very possible that the people updating the icons have done it that way, there's nothing to prove it.

If you were to list the icons by franchise name, they would be grouped by franchises introduced per game, but the list wouldn't be alphabetical.

Besides, what if there's a G&W item? Or a stage? I know that's very far fetched, but there's an Animal Crossing icon and no character. There's every possibility that one will be updated, but there's the same possibility that there won't.

I don't care what anybody says. The fact of the matter is that there is no confirmation until confirmation.

Oh I wasn't speaking about Smash I meant anything in general...of all science and everything you perceive is just assumptions...Nothing can be proven in existence...only perceived so technically you cannot really disprove anything either.

Assumptions that seem to happen every time in experiments, but still only assumptions...It would take infinity to prove anything or disprove 100%

Ah, i get you now. I know what you're saying, too.

But, all you need to do, in this case, to disprove Mr Game & Watch's inclusion in the game at this point is to go to the Dojo. No updates on him.

Sakurai could update with a an item based on G&W games and say something like "Where is Mr. Game & Watch, anyway? It's about time he showed up..." and it still wouldn't confirm him, until he was in a screenshot as a fighter (not an AT) or had an update on the Dojo, or was unlocked by someone when the game comes out.

I know that everything in that (very credible and interesting) theory points to the missing icon to be his, but until he is confirmed, he's not confirmed!
