I'd just advise not to read any more comments, and avoid everything at all costs, so you don't see dem spoils. When I was playing, I pretty much shut myself out from Xenoblade related stuff online, so I didn't get spoiled.

Just keep playing the game and enjoying it, there's tons of surprises in store.

I. I hell. I just clicked on the episode 6 link without reading the rest of your message, and I spoiled my self. I've only played the first 20 minutes of the game.

I AM CRY.
I felt the same way when I accidentally spoiled myself with that exact same plot twist. I wouldn't worry about it too much though, you'll be going through like 10 emotions within the span of 5 minutes when it happens. Needless to say, I was still caught off guard despite knowing it was bound to happen at one point in the story. That's because the game's narration is crazy good.

Isn't Shulk pretty much confirmed?

IMDB Super Smash Brothers for 3DS/Wii U page completely useless for the most part has had people putting in pretty trolly additions to attempt to troll hype. At best at least they matched it up the correct actor in this case.

... or at least I'd hope so. It'd be weird to hear Shulk with a different voice actor.

Like I've said before, if Adam Howden doesn't voice Shulk in SSB4, I'm going to be sad beyond belief. It just wouldn't be him!

PLEASE!!

I won't go as far as to say that Shulk getting in without Adam Howden voicing him would make it so I'd rather not have him in at all, but... It would significantly harm my excitement. Depending on how bad the other guy was anyway.

If it's a close-enough match, or even just voice files from Xenoblade (It's not like he doesn't have enough to be fully voiced...) then I'm fine, but I just don't want it to end up like the voice Fox is currently using. Honestly though, I think they'll either get Adam or just use the Xenoblade files.

I'm still convinced Smash 4 is Adam's "secret project", so there's that.

I'll be almost equally upset if Matthew Mercer isn't voicing Chrom in a similar fashion, because that man's voice is amazing too.

Adam is certainly talking about the new Dragon Age game. No doubt in my mind... the only question is if he is ALSO talking about Smash.

....which he probably is, since Anders and Shulk are the only two characters he is known for. So it's either that, or DA + roles in a few series he has never been in before.

Or maybe it means there will be a Dragon Age rep in Smash instead of Shulk. :troll:

When Adam Howden isn't available to voice Shulk, Alfonzo takes his place.
Alfonzo: Leave it to me!

So...anyone think we might get some of the other party members in Shulk's victory screen? Doc Louis is in Little Mac's, so it's a possibility at least.

Reyn needs to be an assist. what he could do is defend the character that summoned him, tanking the incoming damage just like in Xenoblade. But most importantly, he would say: " NOW ITS REYN TIME!" When you summon him.

The thing is that the character s from Xenoblade can be represented in so many ways. In a final smash (I think Chain Attack would be the BEST final smash), as Assist Trophies, in a Victory screen, or as a Hazard in the case of certain villains. I would be happy with Reyn for any, personally.

I want a Colony 6 Colonel (old Sqaurestache himself) that makes you do squat jacks while he is out. Wii Fit Trainer gets done first every time, though.

I think you mean Colony 9. And yes! Squarestache would be a a hilarious assist trophy. He could be the new Mr. Resetti.

Yes, I meant 9, too much colony 6 on the mind!

We could also have a Melia Assist Trophy. Every time she is summoned someone will kill off one of her family members, or her boy friend will break up with her, or someone will show up and call her fat and throw mud at her. She'll then sigh and walk off screen. You know, something that really fits with her portrayal in the game.

Alright, I just bought the game. Now for the worst part of buying any game; removing the accursed sticker from the box. *sigh*

EDIT: Sticker came off surprisingly easy. It must be the power of the Monado.

I'm really OCD about used, and new stickers on my game cases. every trace of it being there has to be removed, otherwise it just nags at me.

Me too. My brother's Modern Warfare 2 box still has traces of a sticker on it, and it really annoys me.

WE MUST CUT HIS FINGERS, CUT OUT HIS TONGUE, AND FEED IT TO HIM. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE.
It certainly is unacceptable, but on the bright side, I had the exact same thing spoiled for me when I was playing Xenoblade and the moment still surprised the hell out of me. Hell, I even had a damn description of what goes on in the scene spoiled for me and it still surprised me. You may have been spoiled, but you still have shocking moments out the wazoo to look forward to.

Just found this on Miiverse:



Oh. My.

By the way, it is made by the same guy who made this.

One of my favorite mechanics in Xenoblade Chronicles is introduced here, the visions. Vision tags, to be exact. Say, that could actually be implemented in some way or another... I dunno, final smash maybe? Give me a moment to think about it, it seems like a potentially interesting idea.

Is that 7's japanese voice actress in the commercial? If so, that's some potentially huge spoilers there for back then. The game hadn't come out yet right? Dang.

*Shrugs* Maybe the Japanese don't care about spoilers as much as Americans? Based on the crap Sakurai put in Brawl about MOTHER 3, it certainly seems that way.
