New Character to be Shown Monday

[Doompatron3000]

I wonder if, at the end of the video, if we will finally get an actual release date for the Wii U version.

I wouldn't mind too much if we got multiple characters revealed, but, we'll probably just get one character, if the trailer is really detailed. Palutena's trailer is also 3 minutes long.

 

[Bassoonist]

Oh boy, I wonder which of the three remaining leaked characters will be shown (since it's all but confirmed that they're all that's left)?

It's incredibly lame that they really let the list of newcomers be leaked so early. I don't care if they had been the most awesome list of newcomers ever, it's just not cool and totally killed my hype this time around.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

It's going to be 2:45 minutes of K. Rool or Ridley staring at the camera, tapping their feet and claws. At the 2:45 mark they'll finally growl out..

''****ing finally!"

And then their card will smash:

''RIDLEY/K.ROOL WAS SICK OF WAITING."

15 seconds of gameplay.

 

[Frostwraith]

It all begins in 3 days and one hour... Fortunately, it's at a decent time for me (3 PM). But the wait is painful!!

I'm getting all hyped. My body wasn't ready for this!!

 

[Hokori]

I'm expecting a pretty big newcomer reveal *"Ridley Confirmed?" incoming*

For it to be announced 3 days early...3 minutes long...they clearly want everyone to watch this, what I'm gonna call a SHORT SHORT film, and get super hype and cry tears of joy together.

I really want to see Shulk, but hm...never know. Maybe all the Ridley teasing will come to an end?

 

[Phaazoid]

It's going to be 2:45 minutes of Ridley staring at the camera, tapping their feet and claws. At the 2:45 mark they'll finally growl out..

''****ing finally!"

And then their card will smash:

''RIDLEY WAS SICK OF WAITING."

15 seconds of gameplay.

I would be ok with this

 

[ScottyWK]

The fact that it is a 3 minute video makes me thinks it really will be the Chorus Kids (all jokes aside). If their moveset is based around some crazy rhythm mechanic (plus the fact that it could potentially be 3 characters running around in tandem), then I can see 3 minutes being warranted to fully do them justice in a trailer.

...unless it's just some stupid 3:00 anime thing and then it's Chrom.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

If someone outside of Sal Romano gets announced prepare for Smashboards to become Crashboards

 

[Hokori]

Is it wrong of me to want to see a character that wasn't on the leak just so I can laugh at everyone's reactions? Because if it's not Shulk, this is exactly what I want to happen.

 

[Reila]

Oh boy, I wonder which of the three remaining leaked characters will be shown (since it's all but confirmed that they're all that's left)?

No, it is not all but confirmed they are all that is left. Rosalina alone is reason to believe that is not the case.

 

[Frostwraith]

I would really like if the character was a newcomer that isn't on the Gematsu leak. Would be really hype.

 

[Ryuutakeshi]

Wow, this blindsided me. But I'll actually be up for it. Hoping for Mewtwo.

Interesting to know they're near the end of the new challengers.

 

[Deleted member]

Hmm, interesting. I can't wait until Monday, it's gonna be both huge and awesome at the same time. Will it be Shulk? Will it be the Chorus Men (although I think they won't appear because Ice Climbers, but you never know), or someone else? The hype is real.

 

[PLATINUM7]

Yeah, makes you wonder if there will be any secret ones not revealed until after release

 

[dimensionsword64]

Really hope it's King K. Rool!

 

[Chandeelure]

 

[Bowserlick]

Shulk Vs Chrom for the trailer.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

Yeah, makes you wonder if there will be any secret ones not revealed until after release

I'd hope so. I'd like to have some form of in game trailers/challenger approaching screens for people who I don't know who they are watching their trailer.

 

[Phaazoid]

No, it is not all but confirmed they are all that is left. Rosalina alone is reason to believe that is not the case.

The scene from star wars where they say your our last hope is playing in my head but with it being said to Rosalina instead

 

[andalsoandy]

Remember, Sakurai originally said not every newcomer would get a video.

When was this said?

Like, ever?

This means there can be secret newcomers...

 

[Tree Gelbman]

Whoa. Dude. I'm just a Smashboards user. Don't put all that pressure on me.

 

[Bassoonist]

No, it is not all but confirmed they are all that is left. Rosalina alone is reason to believe that is not the case.

So the leak left out ONE character. Big deal. It isn't enough to get my hopes up.

Somehow three newcomers being left lines up quite well with him saying that they're at the "bottom of the barrel" regarding newcomers.

 

[Phaazoid]

What are you talking about? That's crazy

There've never been secret newcomers in a smash game before, I don't see them starting now

Whoa. Dude. I'm just a Smashboards user. Don't put all that pressure on me.

But you're all we have...

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

It seems that I won't be able to see the video live, as I'll be out doing volunteer business during that time.

 

[TheAnvil]

If it's a 3 minute trailer, then I highly doubt it'd be Chrom or Shulk. It's either Chorus Men or a non-Gematsu.

Are you cereal?

 

[Jason the Yoshi]

I'm thinking if it's a newcomer, it'll be either Krystal, K Rool, or Chrom. I kinda doubt a veteran, but if so it's probably Wario or Ness

 

[Tree Gelbman]

Wolf, Toon Link and R.O.B. would like to say "Hi!"

 

[andalsoandy]

Wolf and Toon Link? They were post-launch.

EDIT: 'd

 

[Frostwraith]

Someone hasn't posted this yet? I'm disappointed.

And yeah, I agree the Gematsu leak doesn't mean all the characters. Which is one more reason why I want this reveal to not be a character from the leak. But if it is, I'll ride the hype train anyway. Character reveals are always real hype.

 

[Phaazoid]

I guess I layered the sarcasm a little too thick guys, xD

There've been secret newcomers in every game since smash 64...

 

[D-idara]

The first half of the video will be Sakurai giving an extremely vague apology to a fanbase he has hurt a lot, then, Ridley trailer!

Seriously, I want either Chrom, Chorus Kids or Ridley, I have no emotional attachment to Shulk at all, and he wouldn't be as unique as CK.

I don't think Sakurai is really caring on who he reveals at this point. For all we know, some of the confirmed newcomers may end up being unlockables.

 

[Fatmanonice]

God, this is either going to produce momentous hype or extreme butthurt. I'm hoping that an unannounced veteran is somehow tied into it because I'm more than ready for or to be shown already. Also, a reveal on a Monday? How coo-coo bananas is that?

 

[PLATINUM7]

you know, for only 3 minutes I'm not sure that's enough time for the thread to gain another 50 pages, like what usually happens with these things.

 

[Phaazoid]

I don't think Sakurai is really caring on who he reveals at this point. For all we know, some of the confirmed newcomers may end up being unlockables.

I admit, I've been really confused on who's going to be unlockable or not from the announced characters so far.

The only assumptions I'm making is that the characters on the box art are definitely starters, and the third parties are unlockable

It's harder to guess further than that.

 

[ferioku]

I'm really hoping we don't get any of the characters from the gematsu leak... I find them horribly dull.

 

[Bowserlick]

Bottom of the barrel?

Does this suggest a DK character?

 

[TheAnvil]

[Moon Monkey]

Wait whoa what!? Where the hell did this come from?!

I hope it's another "Rosalina"

 

[Cap'nChreest]

Its hard to be excited when you know the rest (if not the majority) of the newcomers. And you know that they're all "meh"...
