Unless he gets in here and becomes such a popular character that they have to keep him for smash 5.
Exactly that. Getting in now will basically confirm his continued existence in Smash. He just has to make sure he doesn't miss the bus on this...

I'm sure I'm entirely biased, but dude... *really* try to track it down if you can. "It's excellent" is an understatement. I could go all fanboy, but I'll leave it at that.


Not necessarily. A lot of people thought Krystal had a good shot at getting in Brawl, but she didn't make the cut. By the time Smash 4's comes around, and just my opinion, but Krystal is kind of irrelevant with Star Fox (currently) out of the recent Nintendo picture. With no confirmation of Shulk appearing in any future titles, I think this might be the ONLY time Shulk has a chance to get in.
I thought shulk appeared in one of the trailers for xenoblade x? was that him?

Well, one cool theory I did see awhile ago about the new game is that Shulk won't be in the game, but his daughter will. If you watch the new trailer, there is a character that has hair suspiciously similar to him, and we still see him in the old trailer.

Smash comes out. Everyone loves Shulk. Everyone goes and plays Xenoblade Chronicles. Everyone buys Xenoblade Chronicles X. Xenoblade Chronicles X saves Wii U. Shulk is Nintendo's hero. Shulk takes down Sony and Microsoft.

All shulk fans go to heaven
They see giant floating monado
On the monado is a bunch of wii u consoles and tv
inside the console is smash 4
Shulk fans get happy.
Shulk fans jump in joy
Monado can not take the pressure from jumping
Monado falls down to earth
Shulk fans are back to earth
But the wii u consoles are all destroyed
now shulk fans have to wait for smash 4
shulk fans are sad

Hard to say. I can't deny that he looks similar, but I personally doubt it's Shulk, something about his face looks different. Maybe a relative, if not someone entirely different.

I doubt it's Shulk as well, but the way they so mysteriously showed half of his face I'm positive he's in some way related to Shulk.
Can't be Shulk...Shulk's eyes are blue, the new kid's are green hurheuhphhurph

He had green eyes as well. He could be a descendant of Shulk and Seven, possibly.

If we go by the theory of the girl who looks like Shulk aswell, maybe its the kind of thing where if you pick boy, you get a girl descendant and vis versa, so that they can fall in love or something, and Shulks descendants can continue on, as the Xenoblade Chronicles continue.

Also, I still think its super important that the game is called Xenoblade, since the Xenoblade is the Monado, it translates roughly to strange blade but I think the/a/shulks monado will still be important somehow.

It's called Xenoblade because of B.L.A.D.E.: Beyond the Logos Artificial Destiny Emancipator.

Which roughly translates to a man made module/device implanted into the brain that gives the recipient free will and allows him/her to transcend the words of God and escape the laws of the universe. So much like the Monado.

At the very least she's slightly more important then some of the others there, she gets another whole second of footage later on.

Also, if Shulk could summon a monado from his own will, i wonder if this is just tapping into everyone ability to do that or something.

I think Nintendo really want people to remember Shulk, why would they put a character that look almost like him in a trailer about Xenoblade chronicles X a game that have nothing to do with him, well... I think anyway.

At 1:05, watch out for all the party members. The blonde girl looks like Shulk.
I've just gotta say, I love the fact that one of the people in that character montage has Monado hairpins. (I'd upload the screenshot if I could do it directly, I'm in the same boat as Andyjoe522.) It's a nice shout-out.

I wonder if Chugga is gonna help get more supporters...

Also, support
more then likely it seems like every lp he does either a new game on that game is announced or a remake or something along those line happens

I flipped when I saw that. I felt like I cracked the conspiracy theory of the century, only to find out everyone was like "oh I saw that right away in the split second that she's shown".

Anyone have any good speculation about the cat-alien girl? Apparently she must have some significance. After all, she is the thumbnail for the video.

I think her race and the horned guy's race are the two races at war with each other. And those two specific characters join your party.
