Heir to the Monado. Shulk General Discussion/Social Thread

[ThatLunaticFeline]

Look on the bright side about Xenoblade New 3DS... it means we'll probably get a special edition with a nice pretty Monado on the front.

I was REALLY worried we would get buster as a FS for a while.

Me too. Chain attack is the best. I never thought it would actually happen...

 

[ChibiIceClimberz]

Well, I do want to support Nintendo by buying the new system and the game, so I'll do that, especially since I haven't upgraded to the 3DS XL yet. Has it been confirmed for the west?

Random note:

As a Premium member, I get my Smash 4 character in the background of my posts. I like this feature.

I'm saving it for Shulk. Captain Falcon is just a stand-in. I want Shulk, then I want to come back to this thread and see several posts with Shulk in the background before bursting into tears.

That is my dream.

This was from July 15th. My dream has come true.

Monolithsoft is now in the credits !!

(from this trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBXddbXQaXE)

Wooooow that's really interesting. They're intentionally withholding certain companies from appearing in credits in order to prevent people figuring it out? Surprises built for maximum hype until the very end!

 

[Ridles the Space Pirate]

Congrats everyone!
(like there was even a shadow of a doubt he was getting in at this point)

 

[Oniric Spriter]

I might have to consider a main change for one reason

lmao from where did you got this?

I'm not ashamed to say i'm buying one of those 3DS' just for Xenoblade.

Me too, especially if there'll be a special edition 3DS. I always dreamed of portable Xenoblade but I never thought it would actually come true!

Yep, putting company names are a complete giveaway, especially ones that you only know for 1-2 characters/franchises.

Say Monolith Soft versus Nintendo. We definitely would've been able to figure out that a Xenoblade character would be in, where as with Nintendo itself, there's just too much franchises within the main company, we'd have to make some much harder guesses.

 

[Pega-pony Princess]

While its nice to see Xenoblade on the 3ds, it'll always truly belong just to the wii in my eyes. Just imo.

 

[Storm Eagle]

I will be so dissapointed if we don't get Lucina in a bikini now! :-P

 

[BluePikmin11]

HOLY BALLS! THE TRAILER! THE SWIMSUIT! THE PROMOTION ART! IT HAS EXCEEDED MY EXPECTATIONS!
THE BEST TRAILER EVER!

 

[Lamasis]

yay, the trailer was good.

 

[chronomantic]

maining Shulk if we get a skimpy outfit for him.

welp, I guess I have to main Shulk now

 

[Fire Tactician]

After Robin's perfect Pair Up, "Anything can change!"

 

[BugDoctor]

Awesome to see the Shulk reveal straight from Sakurai! Congrats to everyone in this thread :D He looks awesome, and will definitely be one of the most versatile fighters in the game. I was hoping he'd be in, and I will absolutely be maining him (I have a vast list of mains, haha)!

Xenoblade is an amazing game, and the representation it's getting in Smash Bros. is awesome to see. Look like Metal Face is a stage hazard or a boss, as well! Really excited to see more details about the Xenoblade content!!!

Thanks, do other characters have renders with alts or just him?

 

[MechaWave]

He seems to be the only one with it. I recall Little Mac and Villager have alt renders but I don't know where.

 

[Rie Sonomura]

I LITERALLY JUST WOKE UP AND CHECKED THE WEBSITE AND BAM SHULK

I AM SO HAPPY HE MADE IT!!! :D ::D :D

 

[Aurablade]

All these news are huge. And Yes I'd have no problem buying a New 3DS just to play Xenoblade in my bed.

 

[FirstBlade]

Its been a LONG wait but it was worth it! (Unless of course you already saw the spoilers last week).

I'm literally speechless from that trailer. Everything was done right. The cinematic and voice acting was spot on, the music (You Will Know Our Names!) was awesome, the Gaur Plains stage was beautiful. The Final Smash featuring Dunban and Riki was glorious. And his playstyle looks unique although I may argue it was a bit on the bland side and I wanted to see more Monado Arts. Now all we have to do is wait a whole NOTHER month before we can play him.

LET THE WAIT BEGIN AGAIN!

 

[LeeYawshee]

We're in the big leagues now, congrats guys. We did it. We got our own section. LET THE SHULK DISCUSSION BEGIN!

 

[lami]

Its been a while since I posted here for whatever reason but I just wanna say that I'm so glad that we got our (Monado) boy in. The 400+ pages of Xenoblade discussion and Shulks potential inclusion was really a treat. Thanks all.

 

[Burruni]

"We did it, Reddit!"

But in all seriousness, I'm glad to see Shulk in. While I am a bit upset that people are tieing his reveal to the roster leak being bulletproof, his trailer was honestly amazing with all the great injokes.

 

[Makrrrrrr]

New home! )))

 

[Starcutter]

what's with all these fanservice-y costumes?

 

[8-peacock-8]

 

[samsparta21]

So I noticed that he says "Now it's Shulk Time" in the trailer. REYN REFERENCE?

Also where did you find that alt costume art for Shulk?

 

[Solfiner]

Okay, NO ONE can be against Shulk's inclusion now. LOOK AT THOSE ABS!

 

[SmashBroski]

It's been lovely... though I came in a little late, it's great to see the series get its name across in Smash and people interested in Shulk's game can possibly get to experience it on the 3DS.

 

[Jae]

I demand all Male swordsmen to have a swimsuit alt.

It's nice to finally have a Shulk subforum now :D

 

[Mewtwoultima]

I just wanted to say guys. Congratulations on officially getting the character that you guys really desired. The trailer was awesome and he looks fun, its just a shame the stupid leaker had to ruin some of the surprise factor though. Oh well... Gaur plains looks great in hd as well and its good we got a very worthy newcomer officially.

Also, lol on the swimsuit costume swap.

 

[samsparta21]

I am going to take that swimsuit online, and I am going to kick your ass in a swimsuit.

I echo all of these sentiments especially the ones about the trailer and the swimsuit.

It's your time to shine, guys. The Palutena fans, the Robin fans, we've had our moments in the sun. Today's the day for the Shulk fans to celebrate - and more power to ya for it, guys! ;3

 

[MeekMeek93]

WE DID IT!!!!!!!!

 

[Cpt.]

Congrats guys! Don't know much about Shulk, but he looks fkin awesome and his voice actor sounds great!!!

 

[RedCap-BlueSpikes]

I know I'm late to this, but congrats, everyone!

I've wanted Shulk in the game for a long time now, and he was the last on my wishlist for newcomers (Little Mac and Pac-Man were the other two). So, needless to say, I'm really happy to see him. He looks so much fun to play as, with all his different Monado powers. Definitely gonna main him.

 

[samsparta21]

SHULK ICON WHERE??
