The fact that the xeno universe goes through 3 different publishers puts Shulk in a weird spot, where he is almost in between 2nd party and 3rd party, which might be why he starts the the 3rd party charactersActually, both Xenoblade Chronicles (The one for Wii and the upcoming one) are published by Nintendo. I think Shulk is counted as some type of, 2nd party character?
"Is Nintendo" is pretty vague.
more like "hey how do ya guys like smash run colors for"
Well it happened before, after all.
?? I was just providing more proof brah.
I think them purchasing Monolith soft made them 1st party not 2nd. They own 100% of them so...
Agreed.
Makes sense. I can respect that.
Xenoblade is published by Nintendo, while Xeno series probably is third party. So in other words I pretty much agree with this post.
97% but yes, they're a 1st party.
I don't think so, it's kind of like sony and naughty dog. I think all of naughty dogs IPs are second party
Ridley is my most wanted, and has been for 14 years. but Wii Fit Trainer I understand. It was a revolutionary series for the industry, and even though she was a new challenger, she quickly earned her spot, just like Shulk for his critically acclaimed masterpiece.Well it happened before, after all.
I am actually sorry for a few of the Ridley fans, though. He was probably their most-wanted character, and now someone like Wii Fit Trainer got in over him.
That said, I'm still going to laugh my *** off at the Ridley fans who thought he was 100% playable, or had one of their main reasons for wanting him to be to piss people off.
That is the very definition of a second party.
Or more to the point, what if the lock doesn't actually mean anything? What if it's just there to show that this is an unlockable mode...?
Okay since I can't find the original image I'll just use this one.
Anyway, honestly how hard would it be to just photoshop a lock onto that, to mess with us and make us think there's more characters? Like others have stated Sakurai has never shown locked items, they just kinda appear as little surprises.
What if just to mess with us and cause further chaos, the leaker (who has lied in the past) just put a lock on the menu and called it a day? Does it make any sense that Sakurai's only means of showing a mode is locked would be a small lock in the top left of the screen?
On top of that the top right of the lock is chipped, seems kinda odd and out of place. Of all the things we've questioned the photoshop of, this should be the most glaring one.
As much as I want there to still be characters this is just a glaring discrepancy that seems off to me.

...he wouldn't do that....right? ;~;

I understand that. But legally, that is hazy. In most cases like this, a company like Nintendo wouldn't consider the potential legal ramifications (should an old publisher claim certain rights to the series's representation) worth the character's investment and avoid him altogether. It's just surprising that they went ahead and did it.
Ok you CAN complain about WFT since she definitely wasnt tacked on at the end... but just know what someone somewhere wanted her in... Emphasis on someONE.Well it happened before, after all.

Yes, it is true.
F-Zero is overrepped? I guess you'd be losing your main if things were fair, huh?
Well, where's Game and Watch? Chronologically he should be next to Pac-man, but he's not. That's probably the default screen for it, and it includes Game and Watch when you unlock all the characters (it would make more sense to display him after unlocking just him, but whatever).

his Monado has 2 modes, one turns his hand red or blue, and the other turns his feet which ever color the hands aren't. I haven't played xenoblade, so i have no idea if this happens in that game
I wouldn't put it past him in all honesty, that seems like the simplest of shops to just paste a white lock in the top left of nowhere.
You know, I didn't think I had those set when making that post. You win this time.F-Zero is overrepped? I guess you'd be losing your main if things were fair, huh?
That being said, I don't think Wii Fit Trainer getting in is that bad, but she's definitely not someone I'd consider to be smash material.
