Btw, too niche for smash. Shulk will never make it in. :troll:
"He's not the type of character that would usually appear in the Smash Bros. series"

I guess detractors also won somehow.

As for me, I am and always was neutral towards him, but congrats anyways, even if it was obvious for so long.

Pic of the day. From Xenoblade Chronicles, Shulk joins the battle!! He's not the type of character that would usually appear in the Smash Bros. series, but we worked really hard to make it happen. We're very happy with how he turned out. This stage is Gaur Plain.

Shulk's sword, the Monado, slashes enemies with a beam when activated, so it can strike from long range. What really makes this weapon unique is that when the Monado Arts are activated, it can change Shulk's features and abilities! Emerge victorious in battle by changing your abilities strategically!!

[List of Monado Arts] 翔 (Jump): higher jumps, lower defense. 疾 (Speed): faster movement, weaker attacks. 盾(Shield): higher defense, slower movement. 斬(Buster): stronger attacks, weaker launch ability. 撃(Smash): Stronger launch ability, weaker attacks, lower defense against launching.

Not just Shulk, but Metal Face, Dunban, and Riki.

Also, Xenoblade is a perfect fit for a hand held. I love taking JRPGs with me on the go, and also doing some mindless grinding while watching TV.

As soon as Shulk was confirmed, I heard a train go by my area. That couldn't be more fitting.

Gratz guys!

WAHOO! Shulk confirmed officially! I'm super hyped! Now I can finally change my sig with a higher quality image!

He looks so cool *O*

EDIT: Also his render looks spot on with the leak so you know what that means... :p

HOLY CRAP

I was thinking about playing Xenoblade Chronicles one day, but now I REALLY have to! Shulk looks really cool, as a fighter AND as a character!

And then they announce Xenoblade Chronicles 3DS!

I'm speechless. Quite literally speechless. WE GOT EVERYTHING. The reveal trailer literally gave us everything we could have ever wanted. Unique Shulk moveset, a breathtaking CG trailer that I'm sure we'll all watch dozens of times more. We got Riki assist trophy! Chain Attack Final Smash! We got HD Gaur Plains stage! WITH THE METAL FACE BOSS!

WE EVEN GOT SWIMSUIT SHULK

IT'S LIKE SAKURAI IS ONE OF US, JUST TAKING NOTES.
I am oozing with bliss.

I chortled when the British voice came out. I was not expecting that, but I love it! Shulk looks really great, congratulations to his supporters.

Congratulations to all Shulk fans! It is great to see a JRPG hero being announced for Smash 4! Although this proves a part of the leak, it still raises my hope for Isaac in Smash 4 playable as well! Here's to seeing Isaac joining Shulk and celebrations for Shulk making it in the game!

OMG XENOBLADE CHRONICLES COMING TO THE 3DS, NO MORE NEED TO BUY THE WII VERSION!
Apparently the Xenoblade port on the 3DS is for the *new* 3DS which has a higher CPU speed than the current model!

"Swimsuit Shulk is fanservice hurr" I guess if he were a girl this would have been spammed countless times.

Anyway, he definetly looks even more amazing than in the leak, you see, that's why I hate leaks, they kill the hype and they don't do any justice to the character.

You know, Metal Face had basically the same role in this trailer that Dark Pit had in Palutena's.

Dark Pit is playable.

So, if we connect the dots.....

I've never been so tempted to main another character instead of Yoshi but I'm just so ridiculously hyped right now.

Congrats. He wasn't character I supported but he also wasn't a character I was against. I'm more excited for Xenoblade music more than Shulk himself but he's a nice addition (One of the few good parts about the leak...).

Wow. That trailer was fantastic. I'm loving the representation Xenoblade is getting in this game. Gaur Plains as a stage, Dunban and Riki in Shulk's Final Smash, Metal Face...damn. I'm so glad I decided to play the game.

At this point, I'm pretty sure Reyn's going to be an Assist Trophy, and Metal Face will be the boss of Gaur Plains. SO EXCITED.

I don't know if Shulk is going to be one of my mains, but I'm definitely trying him out. DAT MONADO RANGE THO.
