While this is true, I just think everyone is jumping the gun a bit too much. The first thing I thought when I read the PotD was "Oh, this is a pretty cool homage to Ubisoft. This way third parties that don't make it on the roster may still be in the game in some form." Well, maybe I had a shorter thought process then that.
Not really. There's a reason for it. A reason Sakurai didn't give today of course. (Because you know how he is when it coems to third parties)

Fine, believe what you want. I don't feel like arguing about this anymore. What is the reason? Why is this different? I don't feel like knowing that actually, since this is the Shulk thread, and I am hyped for Shulk. And again, it's fine if you have an opinion thats different from mine, but please respect MY opinion as well.

In a way I'm kinda thankful for the gematsu leak.

I'm not sure my poor heart could take the sudden random unveiling of Shulk as a playable character.

Talk about overreacting.

You aparently didnt readed this:
And that is just an example.
Looks to me like he was just joking. Plus, the fact is he may just not want Shulk as much as Isaac, but he doesn't "mind" having Shulk either. Ever thought of that?


I don't think anyone is actually against Shulk being in Smash. Some are just hoping he isn't announced today specifically.
This is me. I don't mind Shulk. I'd just rather it not be him because everyone expects it at this point. He's basically in regardless.

I think we all can agree their will be people in the hospital by the end of today one way or enough either from people having heart attacks from his reveal or from riots

I suppose from my point of view, I haven't had a great hit rate with getting playable characters I really really want. Couple that with the possibility that even if the gematsu leak isn't absolute there probably aren't many newcomers it hasn't mentioned. So if we got a non gematsu character that isn't Isaac I'll be totally sunk.

It's safer for my interests if Shulk (or I guess Chrom/Chorus Men to a lesser extent) appears today.

Rayman's trophy being in Smash is totally different from Wonder Red and other Nintendo characters being trophies. This is a fact.

Not sure why some are overreacting. It is very very likely that Shulk will be announced today, and not Rayman, Chrom, Chorus Kid or Ridley.

Just calm down and wait for two more hours.

As I have said before, even if Shulk isn't revealed I won't be too sad. I'm just thirsty for some news.

Dont Make Jonhs for AgatioGanon, as i said thats only an example.

I dont dislike any of the newcomers or any of the leaked characters. But if we get Shulk, Chrom or Chorus Men today.
I will be a bit disapointed. Plot Twist, pls Sakurai.

Why do I have a feeling they're going to reveal the functionality of the S-Flag, and reveal one of the summons is KOS-MOS?

Because that would be kinda cool.

Interesting, but I doubt it. Though on that topic, I wonder if a Tekken character will be a summon?

I still say Sal is Sakurai.
And that 10% of all "leakers" are Sakurai intentionally making false claims for the purpose of throwing everything off.

Hmm...
I'm looking at my avatar, and I'm getting inspiration to do something stupid.
Let's see if I can get this done before the reveal.

You've never seen a group with so much overwhelming evidence that their character will be revealed today, and yet doubt themselves so much.

Because it's not guaranteed, the traces are so obvious so if it was somebody else, it would be even more devastating because we're getting kinda settled on it being true.

For me I will be super surpised if it's anyone but Shulk and probably be positive about it because that means everything is up in the air again (assuming it's a non gematsu) and that's pretty exciting character wise.
If it is Shulk I will just lay back, enjoy the show and hope for a good moveset.

I think it's because there's so much overwhelming evidence. It's easy to see Shulk is in. Too easy.

Listening to this as I wait, never played Xenoblade before but this is absolute fantastic, I'm an hour and 20 minutes in.

The closer it gets to the reveal the more anticipated and nervous I get... nearly an hour left to go.

It's probably the effect of people telling us for years that he's not that likely because he's obscure.

Now that it's staring us in the face we remember that and get uncomfortable.

Yeah... no. I got bored while trying to make it, so I'll just put it in the spoiler.
It was going to be a tree with Pits growing on it that had Reyn's face.
A Peyn Tree.
Instead, have a Reynapple.

Speculation God, GOML
Unfortunately, despite my earlier declaration (knee-jerk reaction), I no longer find Shulk to be a feasible choice for the reveal... please understand.

Gotta post another one of these. Something about Barkley + Xenoblade never stops being hype!

WHY CAN'T I LIKE THE REYNAPPLE MORE THAN ONCE!?
