My bet is on Chrom, but I really hope it isn't one of the gematsu characters like ferioku said.

Is this a Smashboards user?
No! This is Patrick!

What I do know that is 100% confirmed will be a "Is ____ OP" and an "I was wrong" thread, regardless of which character gets revealed.

Prepare your body and prepare your underpants.

Oh, a new challenger? Who could be announced? It could be one of those 3 characters from the leak, I think.

3 minutes ? Hope it'll have Shulk, then R.O.B. making his appearance at the end with Shulk pursuing him.

Don't forget the "On a scale from 1-10 how good does ____ look in this game?"

I will be so sad if it's Chrom.

A joint /Chrom trailer would make a bit of sense.... could see it being called challenging the future or something like that.

With Sakurai mentioning that they were nearing the end of the newcomer trailers, it does seem to suggest that there is going to be at least one more after this. Also, the Gematsu leaker seems to like to pop up before events like this so I wonder if anything new will be said by him this weekend.

If it is one of the 3 remaining Gematsu characters, then I think it'd be safe to say that Sal's leaker is a guy involved with direction of the cinematography with the release videos. That explains why he has known everyone that has a video (sans Rosalina), and hey, that could mean that there are more newcomers that don't get videos (since Sakurai specifically mentioned "bottom of the stash in video trailers," and not just newcomers).

BTW, I think it's a safe time to possible reopen that thread...

If they want to go for "worst smash character ever" then Chrom was an awesome choice.
Pichu is worse than Chrom.

Maybe, maybe not. We will have to see.

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

Usa is probably going to be earthquake with hype if the pyropshere stage with the shadow is the pre picture before the video.

Seriously, all that hype for Chrom? Chorus Men have the potential to be really interesting and I really want Shulk, but Chrom is really vanilla. On top of that, he would do nothing to change the status of the Gematsu leak. The other two would give the leak that last push of credibility and any character not on the list would cast doubt, but Chrom would keep the leak exactly as it is.

YES!
Let's see what we get! I'm hoping for Shulk, Isaac, a FE:A newcomer (especially Robin), or the debunk of Gematsu!
When that leak fades away, more character discussion will spawn, and less newcomers will be taken as granted.

Hmm... Three days... Three minute video...

Could it be? The BIGGEST newcomer of them all...

It would be pretty amusing if the hype only resulted in the following...



One way or another though, something is going to go down.

Try telling that to all the people who doubt Chrom because of Ike and the uniqueness criteria set by Sakurai.

I love unique characters, so naturally the Chorus Men seem very appealing to me. I also like unique franchises getting representation, because the more the merrier. I wouldn't personally chose Shulk, I've never played his game but he's infinitely more desirable than generic blue haired sword user #3.

I can at least understand why people want Shulk, I don't think I'll ever fathom anyone, not even the biggest FE:A fans wanting a 3rd boring rep.

Shulk can see the future. As of this post, the unveiling of the new character will be happening in the future. The word "future" ends with the letter 'e'. The word "eye" ends with the letter 'e'. Eyes are used to see. Shulk sees the future with his eyes.

Shulk confirmed.
Looks into the Future!?

You obviously haven't played FE:A...Chrom wouldn't be as bad as you people are making him up to be.

I have to agree

I love FE awakening, and I think Chrom is a decent character, as far as FE lords go.

But don't want him as the rep for smash... sure he could be unique, but....gimme robin pls xD

TBH, I would really like him. I just said some examples; there are enough characters I presonally want to see. And then there are some characters I didn't knew I wanted...

I tried the demo, but I realized it wasn't for me. I also played the one you got for being a 3DS embassador and thought it was one of the worst things I've ever experienced. Right down there with having an Ultra Sound on my balls.

At best Chrom would be the middle-ground of Ike and Marth. Unless they give him unicorns and leprechauns in his moveset to make him unique.

Of course, Sakurai's gotten us fired up and we have to wait until Monday. Who could it possibly be?

Since it's 3 minutes long, I bet a least one veteran will get squeezed it.

Don't give Sakurai any ideas!:p

The weird part is that it's on a Monday, and from what I can recall, no characters have ever been revealed on that day of the week.

Sacred Stones is like one of my favorite games, haha.

Ah well, we just have different tastes, I guess.
