Hell, we might even get a character reveal in the next direct. Sakurai works in mysterious ways. Not getting my hopes up too high though.

:4ness:To coincide with the title.:4lucas:
Have you ever had that one song you can't stop listening to, or can't get sick of hearing.
Well that song to me is Smiles and Tears.
Ever Since I heard it back when the Japan live streams where going on I instantly knew it would stick with me.
And Now nearly a Year Later I am still able to listen to it.
:ness2:No Matter what mood I am in.:lucas:
Never really took the time to listen to Smiles and Tears, I like it.
In regards to your question I have many examples, I'll list three of them.

Also, I forgot to mention, when I was reading the source gaming blog, I found it interesting that the characters on Sakurai's PowerPoint were 3 who DIDN'T leak during Gematsu. @ PushDustIn PushDustIn any thoughts on this?

And my Palutena and Ganondorf amiibo came last night. I now have them months ahead of my American friends.
I would also like to know PushDustin's thought on this.
I also see you have joined the Europe Master Race in terms of Amiibo :3

Good Choice in Music Sir. =3

Aside from the Tournament mode and the youtube uploading feature, I'm in the same boat.

Maybe new game modes?
It would be great If for the one year anniversary they finally managed to get Ice Climbers working on the 3ds (chances of this happening are slim to none)
But either way you look at it.
They are going to have to be free to avoided the cut content claims.

Some days I wanna go to sleep and wake up 6 months later. Besides the mother of all bed sores, all the stuff I'm waiting for will have come ot and in the time it takes me to experience it all a new set of stuff will have happened. Ever feel like that?

Yeah, that's why I hate droughts. I just want new things to keep me interested, it adds some spice to life.

I'm not even that thirsty for Smash info, just for all the games being released in in, what, 5 months from now?
The wait for Xenoblade X and Fire Emblem IF is killing me on the inside.
At least I have a bunch of stuff to watch starting next week(*cough*Gravity Falls*cough*Steven Universe*cough*) and Rick and Morty at the end of the month

There's actually another theory. This is the 2nd presentation, and those characters were just chosen. The first presentation happened before development had begun, in the middle of Kid Icarus: Uprising. I also wrote my detailed thoughts about Chrom here. I talk a bit about the slideshow and Gematsu there.

So....Sakurai filmed himself for most of the Subspace Emissary scenes, and the animators recreated them. Also, they wanted a different studio to make Subspace Emissary.

if there was going to be another character, the most logical choice would be wolf. but i doubt we'll get anything beyond the tourney mode update.

I could see a character trailer happening, but I doubt one will get released.

I've been looking for SFV leaks from time to time but other than that, it's been pretty dry in the news department.

That and I've been lazy continuing games I started...

Sakurai getting another company to produce Subspace would have been ideal. I'm not sure how much time actually went into it, but the rest of the game would only receive benefits as a result.

One thing I've noticed about the DLC is that :4mewtwo::4lucas: both had at least trophies tied to them presnt in Smash 4 before their reveal. :4feroy::4ryu: (aside from a song) were not in the game at all until their reveal.
Here's how the other veterans look,
:wolf:: Trophy, 3 Songs, Lylat Cruise codec cameo, and Fox''s "Wolf Flash"
:popo::Trophy and song
:squirtle::trophy
:ivysaur::trophy
:snake::Nothing
:pichumelee::trophy
:younglinkmelee::trophy?

Just pointing out something.
We need villains, so Hades.
Hades should have been the 3rd Kid Icarus rep.

Hades would be amazing.

But so would Viridi.

Why must I have this internal conflict.
We should have both :awesome:

Although i dont think the wii u could handle that much snarkiness

although people can guess who i want first

im not sure hades would work as an alt for either ki character. Because that would be the only reason he would have even been considered. :p

Sakurai should kill Dark Pit, then make Hades and Viridi playable. No not cut, KILL.

Brawl's development was essentially delayed because of Subspace. It took up a lot of development time and effort, as all of it was animated manually with no motion capturing. In a way, it's similar to co-developing the 3DS and Wii U versions at the same time but they had less people*, and two very different goals with Subspace and Brawl.

Would your reasoning contain anything except "but melee!" and "Dr. Mario never used FLUDD!"?

If not, it's probably for the best that you didn't bother. Especially the latter.
I was going to make a response, but then I saw this post:


Yeeeaaaah, my point wasn't that Dr. Mario should be a costume. I prefer him as his own character, fully understand why he is one, and am well aware that "BUT MELEE!" isn't the only reason.

My point is that I think it's stupid people say Lucina and Pittoo should be costumes, but give Doc a free pass. The arguments that apply to Doc apply to them as well; "BUT MELEE!" is the only thing they lack that he has. For instance, the Tornado/FLUDD argument applies to Dark Pit as well, with the Three Sacred Treasures.
It seems what you were saying wasn't what I was interpreting out of it. My bad. I thought you were being pro-costume for both of them.

Geez. I always knew it took a decent amount of time but that just sounds like hell.

@Burb, a while ago you said something that struck my curiousity and I'm just now asking about it. You mentioned feeling confident about there being more than 2 characters left. We're pretty sure that there's no more Pre-Ballot DLC, so I'm kinda curious what your reasoning is.
