Sales? Didn't Chrono say yesterday that Uprising sold 130k units in Japan?
Yeah it did. Tomorrow we will find out how much it did during its second week in Japan.
I also have a feeling that Genesect's movie is going to be very nice, or at least serve to give him a big fanbase for Smash 4. Though I am curious what Pokemon they will use for 2014 considering that Generation 6 may not be out for a while seeing as Black & White 2 is releasing this year and its a completely new game (though possibly with no new Pokemon outside of new forms for legendaries).
Looking at Black/White, I am surprised about how meager and small Genesect's lore/event is in Black/White in comparison to other final legendaries from other Pokemon games. If they are planning big things for Genesect in Black/White 2 (much like with Suicune in Crystal), I would say he has a good chance at showing up in Smash 4. I am curious whether Black/White will even go as to introduce NEW legendaries.
Also, Star's comment about wanting a bug Pokemon in Smash Bros. is funny considering that I saw more requests for Heracross pre-Melee than any other 2nd-generation Pokemon, so bug Pokemon can become popular for Smash Bros.
I really, really want for Black/White 2 to release before I make a decision about what is likely to be done in regards to a non-Mewtwo Pokemon newcomer.
I also believe that Mewtwo has a very good shot at being revealed before the release of Smash 4.
