So something interesting I saw on Gamefaqs, some guy had a poll where if you had to choose between the two who would you rather want in Smash. The two choices were Ridley and Shulk. And the crazy thing is Shulk is winning. I know it's a little thing and it probably doesn't matter, but it's cool to see after the Gematsu leak dying Shulk's popularity has actually been increasing.
I'm not sure the leak is quite dead it's been speculated for a while now that Sal's leaker probably had outdated info.
Even Sakurai said he considered Chrom before anyone but decided against it for the fear of him being an "Ordinary Swordsman".
Meaning Shulk is definitely on the way as well as a Rhythm Heaven rep not necessarily Chorus Kids.
But that's only if you believe that bit of speculation.

Statistically speaking; my laptop
So here's a question: what would you like to see for a Xenoblade Assist Trophy?

The only correct answer is Riki.
I think that if we where going to get two, i'de be Sharla (heals, maybe also hurts) and Riki (does a random effect), since they are both special effecty characters. Melia is also an option, and might buff you, but i'm a little iffy on that since Sakuri said that only Wii Fir Trainer could so that.

Dunban as the assist trophy. He comes out and says "I don't have time for small fry!". Then he just leaves, he wasn't playin, he has things to do

In all seriousness, I think Riki would be ideal for an Assist Trophy. With all those unique arts and quirky nature of his, he could be one of those unpredictable Assists that causes a different effect every time he's summoned.

And of course, all his appearances would be accompanied by traditional Nopon dialogue.

Oh, and he would look adorable in HD.

Alternate quote for him before he leaves: "You can eat bread without knowing how to bake it."

Riki very cool!
But...
NOW IT'S REYN TIME!
He would come in and take damage for the player while using moves like Hammer Beat and Sword Drive.

Oh my god guys, I just found something beautiful.


This is incredible!

Glad to see Shulk gain a massive feat by defeating Ridley in a poll.
It's one poll, but it's a poll against Ridley, who is probably the most requested character in the US!
Even the smaller battles are great victories for us.

But seriously, am I the only one who loved Square-tache? He was only in the game for about 5 minutes, yet he's one of my favorite minor characters.

I stopped using Reyn as soon as I got Riki.

Argument invalid.

It shows people have faith in Shulk without some leak. It's awesome.
Keep your stinkin' leaks!

Reyn would make a great assist. But so would every party memeber basically.

The video is funny at first, but I ALWAYS lose it at the "ALLE-OOP". After that it's just pure gold.

And yeah, Shulk gaining popularity makes me really happy.

No, he is a very likeable character being the main comic relief in the more depressing parts of the story.(If you've played the game you'll know what part I mean)
Edit: If it makes you feel any better it seems like I'm the only person here who dislikes Riki.

Let's say the 3DS version of SSB4 gets one Xenoblade Chronicles Stage and 3 music pieces. What is the stage and what are the music pieces?

Well since the 3DS version can only have 2 tracks on one stage I'll only say 2.
It should be Eryth Sea with "You Shall Know Our Names" and "Mechanical Rhythm".

I'm wondering, does having a song on the 3DS stage mean that you can't have that same song on the Wii U stage?

Sword Valley, You Will Know Our Names, Mechanical Rhythm, and Time to Fight.

Sword Valley because it's easier to use then Gaur Plains (which I'd rather see in HD), You Will Know Our Names would probably be in both versions, Mechanical Rhythm fits with Sword Valley in my opinion (You know, there's kind of a lot of Mechon there), and Time To Fight just seems too classic to ignore.

I don't see why songs can't be on both versions.

Id~Purpose better be in both versions...

Well, I was mostly wondering because I'm not sure if we've seen any songs that are both on the 3DS version and the Wii U version. It would be a shame to lose out on some iconic music just because of exclusivity.

I think it would be on both. Because since the 3DS one only has two per stage, it could easily work with within any Wii U stage. For example, the main theme of X/Y in Prism Tower could work fine in the Kalos Pokemon League stage for Wii U.

So, I really need to go sleep now (It's 03:30 AM here) and I just sent a thousand different friend requests to people at once. I'm gonna wake up with 100+ alerts aren't I.
