Well, this is bittersweet. On one hand, it's great to see Shulk in, but on the other, this really makes the Ninka leak look pretty legit now.

Between this and the Mario Kart 8 announcement earlier this week, I could see a lot of DLC campaigns starting up soon...

Definitely. All hyped characters who don't get in will surely get DLC campaigns for sure. Nintendo should listen to the reasonable ones though. Never hurts to put awesome Nintendo characters in the game!

I'm liking the large variety of strategic possibilities with many of the new characters.

Really didn't have to give him a Counter, Sakurai come on. Oh well, at least Robin doesn't have one. If (s)he did, that would have sparked even more complaints about the lack of variety in FE playable characters.

That voice acting is so cringe though
The latest reveal character trailers of the more "edgy" characters has had cringe-worthy VA, but that's Japan for you. Western VA retranslating may be more accurate and emotional, but Japan still thrives on Cheetos, it ain't easy being cheesy.

I agree with you on the Counter issue. Palutena has a counter move too and I have grown to feel that Counter was a pretty unique move in Smash, it feels saturated in this game now.

I bet Metal Face is also playable since he was hinted just like Dark Pit n G&W

*Sigh* Shulk looks cool, I guess. I know next to nothing about him, so it's hard for me to be hyped. But, he looks original and fun to play. Since this confirms the Ninka leak, I'm disappointed about the exclusion of Mewtwo. He would have been an infinitely better character than Dr. Mario. Great to see Doc back, and gonna enjoy playing him, but poor Mewtwo... I loved him more than any other character except maybe Wonder-Red, and it's sad for me. But, whatever, Bowser Jr. looks great (Dear God, no Koopaling Alts.), great ROB's back since I loved him, Duck Hunt Dog is an excellent choice, and hopefully all cut characters make it into DLC.

Lol the leak is real which means the beak is coming back.
No it isn't, the gameplay could be modded Project M, why would Sakurai cut a Star Fox character, put in a character whom he didn't like (Dr. Mario ), a character that would be a horrid choice (Duck Hunt Dog), and give a franchise 8 reps, not to mention Game & Watch's trophy looks like it did in Brawl, the fonts in each trophy are different and it's from Reddit and 4chan which are among the least reliable sources, not to mention the leaker is Brazilian. Besides I doubt a Brazilian could get their hands on an ENGLISH copy anyways, I already knew Shulk was going to be playable even before the leak even was an idea, I only trust Sakurai and no one else

Shulk's character portait/render is the exact same as the leak's render, plus the leaked videos showed Shulk using some of the same moves as in Shulk's trailer. You still think it's fake?

Game & Watch trophy? You sure that's from the same leak? It's not in the CSS leaker's dump of images.

Duck Hunt Dog being a horrible choice is an opinion, plus Sakurai may be able to find a good moveset for him.

how the hell could it even be a project m mod in the first place? why do people keep saying it is? in case you didn't notice, the 3ds has TWO SCREENS. of course the leaker didn't actually record it playing on a physical 3ds, probably on a computer, but it still does show the bottom screen. on top of this, the artwork is identical, and it's the same background color for shulk as well. the trailer even showcased a few moves we saw in the leak video, there's far too much evidence for it to be a brawl or P:M mod.

The artwork of Shulk at the official webpage is the same as the leak. For those who doubted, we can safely say that the leak is 100% true. By the way.... what an incredible trailer!!
Yeah..........but I am also disappointed that it is true, I don't really want Bowser Jr. and Duck Hunt Dog( My personal thought, sorry). Seriously, this leak ruined everything.
But still......Shulk ROCKS!

Really, I mean you are entitled to your opinion but I reckon that will be the least interesting trailer. I'm waiting on Duck Hunt Dog.
In all honesty I don't see Dark Pit getting a trailer. I think his appearance in Palutena's trailer was all we'll get.

There okay to me I just don't get the two clones we possibly got *cough dr mario *cough dark pit *cough better get Krystal and chorus men (Krystal's trophy leak didn't acknowledge her inclusion on smash so I'm worried)

Ehhh getting Cloud in this game is like a child's dream, ya know? As much as I would personally love to see him in here, it's not really possible. I could see reps from the old games get in though such as Black Mage and Thief or even actual characters from the "before 7" such as Firion or Cecil. But again, I don't really think it would happen but those are more likely than Cloud.

At least you got Shulk... and fancy that one of his Arts is called Buster :awesome:
Which is exactly why I didn't get my hopes too far up. He was a long shot at best. Even Sora would make more sense.
