Medusa = playable (luigified Palutena),
Hades = boss in story mode
.

And NO Shorts, that is my Strongest form.

Medusa and Palutena will be the prominent choices. I figure the other person is going to be similar to Demise in terms of support. Lacking. ALTHOUGH, I haven't seen HOW he plays yet, and I don't know TOO much about his role. I'm assuming it's major, but very "final bossy". Am I right?
Well...

Hades becomes the main antagonist a little over 1/3 into the game, and is supposedly the final boss. From what I have seen of him, he is definitely more charismatic and has more of a personality than Medusa. Medusa just seemed kind of dry and not interesting in her dialogue. Hades being the true villain of Uprising and having a much more interesting personality would definitely make him build at least some supporters.

Medusa is still going to have a notable level of support simply due to being female.

Yes, it clearly wouldn't have to do with the fact that Medusa has been in the original game as well...
It'd be CLEARLY because she has a vagina.....:rolleyes:

Then tell me, why does Ghirahim have more support than Impa, when Impa is female and has been in more titles?
Wouldn't it come to reason that Mr. Woods would easily have more support going off that? Or if Medusa does get more support, it's because it's another reason than simply having an almighty uterus?

Apparently, from someone who owns the game, there is also some
mind control
in Uprising as well.

Palutena goes crazy and attacks the humans as well. Pit, while controlling Magnus' body has to take down his own body to regain control of it.

And speaking of Magnus...
He apparently comes back AGAIN alongside Gaol to face you in a 2 vs. 1 fight to test your ability.

That is interesting.
Hopefully, we will get to see what moves Palutena is capable of.

Not sure it makes much of a difference since Zelda's moveset was drawn up from scratch as well as utilizing some magic of Link's. Still should be interesting though.

I'm interested in seeing how Hades plays.

I agree with Golden on Medusa. Even though she may not play out a large role in Uprising she still has two other games behind her. Plus, not being the final antagonist does not mean a character cannot be a significant antagonist. Just look at RPG's, they do that all the time.

Shhh, ChronoBound just gets excited sometimes. :3

It's still all about Palutena and Medusa in regards to Smash playable status.
Though I'll concede that Medusa could only come after Palutena. I had to use spoilers so Tryphen will think I'm talking about Uprising, so he won't see me show any weakness.


@Golden: Which reminds me. Orcos trophy?

Medusa was in one other game. She was not in Myths and Monsters. I have already said that Medusa will have the second-most support for a Kid Icarus newcomer, however, I simply don't think she will get in. Her best shot is if Sakurai wants more clone newcomers.

Medusa was
being used by Hades
, and
Hades
was being used by Orcos. And then it turns out Medusa masterminded the whole thing.

@ChronoBound: But you think Black Shadow has a shot. :troll:

I don't think Myths and Monsters will even be referenced in Uprising.
That would be dumb of Sakurai. "pouts" :glare:

The game deserves more attention than gets. It beat out the original in so many ways (except for music).

Err, ONE other game behind her, Star.
She wasn't in OM&M.
Ohh. One game then.

You know, I could always just remove the spoiler tag... *whistles*

For me it is Palutena first and then Medusa second.

.

I wonder if some of those vehicles in Uprising could become mountable items in Smash.

Mountable items would definitely be the way to go. Not sure how they would work. Maybe similar to Wario's Bike, except with different handling? Would the stages be too small though?

I am pessimistic that F-Zero will even get a newcomer in Smash 4. Its best chance is if there is another character Sakurai can make the F-Zero newcomer a clone of. F-Zero got less attention in Brawl than every series that was not a Mario spinoff universe or a retro series. I think F-Zero will continue to be ignored due to the fact that there has not been a new game in that series since 2004.

Yet, surprisingly, in that poll you gave me the link for the one thing I noticed is how highly voted the F-Zero stages and music are, compared to the others. Does that translate to characters? I'm not sure, but F-Zero seemed to still garner a decent amount of support from what I gathered.

Riding on a Rambi on Fountain of Dreams doesn't sound terrible to ME.
Could mount a pegasus from Fire Emblem and fly around stage.

Pegasus VS Arwing. What about those dragons some characters ride on in Fire Emblem though? Imagine Charizard or Ridley riding one. Just ridiculous.

Also a Kuribo's Shoe that automatically footstools anyone you jump on.

If Awakening has a really great locale, which I'm sure it will, I'd be down for it. Never know Tri, since this game is in some way affiliated with the first FE trilogy maybe we could see a neo-Dragon's Altar type location. Yeah, overall I'd like one. FE13, from what I can tell, is shaping up to be my favorite Fire Emblem of all time. The more I see from it the more I love. CGI, design, maps, story, music; it's all coming together.
I agree. A map from Fire Emblem 13 would represent the first trilogy of Fire Emblem games as well as the newest one, especially if it's a location that appears in multiple games of said games (FE 1, 2, 3, 13 [11 & 12 too, but they are remakes]).
That is nothing.

"You know, these Komaytoes sure look a lot like Metroids"
"Don't say that! That game universe has nothing to do with this gaming universe!"
That is... AWESOME!!! :laugh:
Poor 4th wall has not been this abused since Freakazoid was still on television.
This made me lulz. :bee:

Also, you all finally realized Medusa didn't have that good of chances=??? I figured that dating back to me saying that she most likely won't be playable because she is a Greek/historical mythical creature.
I also saw other mythical beings, specifically Ancient Greek mythical beings, coming in Kid Icarus: Uprising.

I have mentioned before that Black Shadow is basically the choice the Japanese Smash Bros. fanbase has when it comes to a F-Zero newcomer. They actually like Black Shadow over there as a character and not for being a character that could take Ganondorf's Melee/Brawl moveset (most likely due to the anime, and judging by that poll, it seems there are many Japanese Smash fans that watched it, as well as due to being voiced by Norio Wakamoto). I have seen the idea of Black Shadow-dorf suggested though.

Smash is not the type of game that would just receive throwaway mentions at back to back E3 conferences.
This post... is brilliant. While I don't think we will get much more than a short teaser trailer at best, we probably will hear a lot of Smash Bros. at E3 from Nintendo about how awesome said game is gonna be. That's exactly what they did with Brawl, and I expect the same at this E3, albeit 3 times as much, given we're getting 2 new Smash Bros. games.

Edit: I got a feeling we are going to AT LEAST get the names of said forthcoming Smash Bros. games! I want to actually say/hear their names now! :laugh:

Edit 2: My vote for a Smash Bros. title goes to "Super Smash Bros. Chuck Norris' Vagina!" :awesome: :cool: :) :grin: :bee: :chuckle: :laugh: :rotfl: :joyful:

@ Chrono
I think the reason many Japanese smash fans like Black Shadow (besides the anime) is because he would be an easier Ganondorf clone than any other F-Zero character, and they want to keep Ganondorf's move set/play style while Ganondorf gets a new move set.

That's my theory at least. :rolleyes:

Pegasus? Pffff. FE13 has Gryphons.
Gryphons? Where? Have I missed something?

Well I could support a unique Black Shadow. Still would laugh if Black Shadow is unique and Ganondorf is not.

If Black Shadow is unique and Ganondorf is not, that will be a crime against humanity.
All they have to say is "Yes, Ridley will be in it this time."

Don't need a name or trailer.
Pretty much all hype then My fellow smash bros! :awesome:
An outrage will likely break out if we find out that Ridley isn't playable for Smash 4. So he's typically big, so what, Bowser went through the same process as well, and look at his status.
Bowser's an Assist Trophy... :troll: TRY AGAIN! :smirk:

Donkey Kong is NO Mario spin off...

How many times does this has to be repeated?

Shhh... it doesn't matter. All that matters is that Dixie Kong and Ridley are playable in these forthcoming smash bros. games!!! :awesome:
I remember Star saying a while back that Uprising would be this generation's Star Fox 64. When you think about it, that's actually a pretty clever comparision
I agree. I hope Kid Icarus: Uprising is that good. It certainly seems that good.
...

Next Kid Icarus-games = Slammed?
Hopefully the next Kid Icarus games after Uprising aren't crap like what we've gotten from Star Fox post-Star Fox 64.

So, I've just gone through a massive Japanese Super Smash Bros poll and am surprised by some of the things I've learned. Cannot believe the favorite song from Distand Planet is Ai No Uta... SMH
Yeah, that song is... well... too Japanese/tbubblegum poppy for me! :laugh:
What I did like was seeing a large amount of love for the Melee evaluation screens at the end of matches.
Who doesn't like all those crazy statistics and stuff=??? :bee: The Brawl screen wasn't nearly as detailed. ;) However, I hated things like "stale moves." :glare:
Falco ain't got Stale Moves. His bread is too fresh. :troll:
HANDS OFF!!! :awesome:

Right behind you with a knife.
Mmmm more Kid Icarus Uprising spoilers

So apparently Myth and Monsters is sort of kind of refferenced. Palutena gets turned to stone! After she gets possessed....and is crazy for 3 years...because there's a time skip in KIU...and then you have to fight her. Not much is described there about it, but apparently she can shoot energy blasts or something. So there's that. Apparently it went really quick, but from what I can tell, most Uprising bosses go down pretty quickly.
