I make fun of everything, including Jews and Muslims, so don't worry about me, mate.

I'd say there's a 50% chance of a surprise Smash Bros. announcement tomorrow. There was the surprise Luigi reveal in August, so I think it's possible.

Mewtwo being a veteran could very well get him revealed tomorrow. But, then again 3 in one month?

Tell me then why should I need to keep Lucas and Lucario? Or better why do you think Sakurai will cut one of the most difficult and time consuming characters that he work so hard to implement into smash and has largest fanbase in Smash community than Lucas and Lucario.

If I told you your jaw would drop.

But I'll give you my reasons and tell it like it is:

Lucas - The Mother series is still popular in Japan. Shigesato Itoi has been showing up in interviews, talking about the games and wanting new players to experience the game by "republishing". That's why Earthbound was one of the first games in the .30 Nintendo Annivesary promotion on Wii U VC. Frankly, the Mother series is still relevant and hold a far more precious place in Smash Bros. than a guest such as Snake. I can explain further, but that's enough. Next.

Lucario - If you follow Pokemon at all (like seriously, FOLLOW), you'd realize that Lucario is still extremely popular in Japan. The character has been in nearly every episode of Pokemon Smash since 2007. The Pokemon has been featured in plenty of advertising and merchandising materials for the Pokemon series. It's been heavily featured in the last few episodes of the Best Wishes saga leading into next BW series. The Pokemon is also featured in the teaser for an apparent Wii U Pokemon game. And the list goes on. Again, explain to me how Snake, a 3rd party character that's frankly irrelevent to Nintendo at this point in time, should be chosen over Lucario? Makes no sense to me.

Another question- why would Nintendo go through the trouble of even LICENSING Snake or any property related to the MGS franchise? That's like free advertising for a series that will seldom show up on Nintendo's consoles. Yeah, surprising. Nintendo has to go through Konami. Shocker.

Wii had a huge install base for a new MGS title to show up on the console. But instead, Kojima and Konami still decided to bring new games to PSP with a smaller install base. Peace Walker or even a special renamed version of Portable Ops could have been ported over to Wii. That didn't happen. But that's a whole different story.

At end of the day, just because they spent so much time working on a character doesn't mean much of anything. I'm pretty sure they spent a long time creating each individual character and still, moving to Brawl, some got cut. How about that Mewtwo?

This is going into religion now? I'm atheist, but tolerant towards other peoples' beliefs, but I can't really stop thinking that religion is a tool that some people use to control other people. Much like politics and other such things. People will do all to attain greater power and dominance over others. It's human nature.

Not that it's bad, it's part of our instinct and traces back when humans were hunters and lived in the wild where it's kill or be killed. Of course, some people will take their ambitions too far...

Wait, what the hell am I still doing here? I said I was out, didn't I? Well, I did and this time I'm out for real.

I have to say that although it's DEFINITELY a possibility, it's not a HIGH possibility. Mainly because it's not only too soon after the reveal of Toon Link, but it'd make sense more for it to be Pokemon Trainer if anything tomorrow, especially considering as of Tomorrow, the new "Pokemon Origins" premiers the day after the Direct, so if any character is actually getting his time to shine, it's Pokemon Trainer.

I doubt we'll see a new character. Possibly footage of the four announced veterans in battle, showing them off, and possibly a FS or stage, but that's just me having really high expectations. Maybe a small announcement about the development maybe?

I really doubt Wonder Red. More than just the "too new" case.

But because the whole gimmick of Wonderful 101 is uniting hundreds of people up to perform actions and skills on a grand scale. Really hard to feasibly implement this, since it's overall a more complicated version of Pikmin.

Eh. I think Sakurai could find a way around that. Give him some abilities, the Wonder Punch, etc...an he'd make a pretty good character. I know it wouldn't be entirely accurate based on the series, but I think it would be doable. Maybe i'll create a moveset and post it to see what people would think.

Also yes Golden, there was yet another Roy vs. Chrom discussion. Both are mediocre options and I just want Marth and Ike only so that everyone can be miserable and look stupid.

Unfortunately, people will still be stupid and persist with this ******** subject. So, let's just sit back and eat some chips and salsa.

I don't know, it's basically the same at the time of Luigi's announcement as it was mainly based around the same thing as this upcoming one. If anything, I'd like to finally get an update on what's going on with Ridley and the Pyrosphere...but seriously, I can easily see Pokemon Trainer being announced tomorrow, and it would make sense considering when the Pokemon Origins anime releases (The day after)

I'd sit down and question how people donated over two million dollars to this game when Shantae: Half Genie Hero is just struggling to get past 500,000...no seriously, I know you people want a new MegaMan-esque game, but give the freaking other game a chance...

Fire Emblem DESERVES three characters. Third Fire Emblem Rep is a pretty cool guy, he shots fire and doesn't afraid of anything.

Honestly, part of me thinks FE deserves FOUR characters.

It's not that you support both, which I do as well, it's just people are just so caught up in the fact of a new MegaMan successor since people have been holding a grudge against Capcom for not having a MegaMan game in three years, but people are just blowing it way out of proportion. Capcom doesn't hate the character, they're unsure of what to do with the character and they don' want to make any mistakes with said character, and even then, it's been only three years. I've been waiting for a new Darkstalkers game for over fifteen years now, and now the franchise is dead, at least your franchise has a chance of being continued, mine doesn't.

That, and the game had more in its first day than Shantae will ever get before their fundraiser ends, and the goals are so whacked. The fact that we need two-three million dollars for a handheld version is ludicrous, when with Shantae we'd get everything for only a little over a million dollars. It's really sad that people are really overlooking what could really turn out to be the superior title.
