On the topic of the new character reveal - I went back and checked, and it seems Palutena's trailer was 3:01 long. Rosalina's was close to that, and Greninja's was about two minutes and a half.

So expect a trailer with a similar sense of scale, hype and mind games.

This makes me think it could only be a character from an already established franchise.

EDIT:

I'm going to jump the gun and expect the Chorus Kids on Monday, haha, just to be different. A sudden, random reveal like this fits a random character like them. Three minutes is long enough to show their quirky attributes and whatnot.

Honestly though, it could be anyone.

If Palutena, Rosalina, and Greninja are anything to go by (seeing as they have a similar length trailer), then this trailer is going to be highly cinematic, so I'm expecting a hype worthy character rather than a quirky random one in the vein of Wii Fit Trainer.

Nearing the bottom of the stash :(

So upsetting.

Just a random thought... it seems weird that if the Gematsu leak is true, there'd only be 2 secret newcomers. If one is shown in a few days and one a few weeks before release, it leaves us with one. I know Brawl was similar with it's 4 secret newcomers, but 2 seems so low.

I know it probably means nothing - different game different rules, but it's still odd.

I wonder if Sal's source worked on the trailers. Maybe secret newcomers don't get one.

It's a stretch, I know.

When we thought E3 hype has faded
Sakurai drops us with another character :3

I really think that there will be a veteran reveal in there considering the duration
It will be shown 10pm here...not too bad I guess

The speculation returns~

I am going to make a wild guess of who will be revealed. Not really gonna back it up or anything (to keep the peace), but I'm gonna guess either Mewtwo or Ridley. I have reasons to believe one of these two will be revealed Monday.

He said that they are at the bottom of the stash of Newcomer videos, not Newcomers. There's a difference.

And let's not bring the Sal Romano leak into this as if it definitely has something to do with it.

Palutena's trailer was the same length and there was no veteran reveal to come with her.

Well I know what I'll be doing at 10 am EST on Monday! And thank goodness I'll be home from work at 9 am so I won't miss it.

HYPE GET!!!

I don't want to think about who it could be and risk being wrong. I'll just get ready for EVO and drink some Morning Rescue.

Nearing the bottom of the stash? Damn you, Sakurai!

But is some of you are pessimistic about secret newcomers not having a trailer, then it will be wierd if they didn't have one.

I hope the "bottom of the stash" is merely exaggerated because there is quite an amount of newcomers of I love to see.

i wish i could SUPER hyped for monday's reveal but truth-be-told im not really i have a strong gut feeling that its gonna be either Chrom, Shulk, or a Rythem Heaven character....although it would be AWESOME to see Shulk...not gonna lie. still hoping on the off chance that its a newcomer Sal didnt mention

Is there really anything wrong with any of the Gematsu characters in the long run? Maybe besides rendering anticipation for other characters and imagination less. I suppose there's always potential for surprise newcomers like Rosalina.

The worst part is that Sal's topic in this forum is locked and dead. Meaning, we might not her from him or his tipper in a while. :(

See while I do REALLY just want Shulk confirmed, I'm kind of hoping for a surprise character too. Just something that hasn't been mentioned or talked about yet, Gematsu leak or otherwise. With that new Pokemon movie coming out soon, maybe Diancie/Mega Diancie is joining the battle... which would be kinda cool in that it would spark so many tears.

Now I may be alone in this (and I am), but I just want it to be some oddball character no one expected (preferably Snack, Ivysaur or Squirtle). Because it's fun to mess with expectations.

If it was a normal person making this game i would say a big hype character but its Sakurai so who knows who he can pull from left filed.

Goddammit, now I'm hyped for Ridley after all that time I spent telling myself he'd never happen. I'm worried I'm setting myself up for disappointment...
