Not trying, I stand firm on my beliefs when I say they are all terrible choices.

The only one of those that I would be "okay" with would be Spyro due to the success of the Skylanders franchise and whatnot.
You'd be okay with Spyro because of SKYLANDERS?

Ugh. There goes my dinner.

EDIT: I'm not saying that there shouldn't be 3rd party characters. I'm all for it, but this just seems way to left-field and irrelevant (yes I said "irrelevant").
Skylanders Spyro?

**** that. There's only one Spyro

I've never played the game, I've played original Spyro games. But the Skylanders games have garnered a lot of recognition and yeah it might all be from 8 year olds but sure, it got it's own Wii U bundle at one point. Seems big enough to me. But in the end, I wouldn't want Spyro in there either.

The 4 oldest video game characters of all time are in the same game together.

Mega Man is in this game despite not having a proper game in years.

And while not third-party, IKE came back.

"Relevancy" is bull****.

Edit: That was weird. It put in the wrong username. O_o

Broke link in your spoiler btw

Four oldest video game characters of all time are in the same together and that is awesome and it's historic.

Mega Man is in the game despite not having a proper game in years but he is one of the most iconic video game characters ever created. He has recognition even among people who are not gamers. Just like Pac Man and Sonic.

Ike came back because people liked him as a character in both Fire Emblem and Smash Bros. Brawl. He wasn't a clone, he had an original fighting style that people like (including me, he was my second main).

As far as relevancy goes, you have your opinion and I have mine.

What's the talk about Ray-Man? Was he just leaked or something?
A Rayman trophy was featured as the PotD

Pic of the day. In order to make Rayman's trophy, we asked Ubisoft to share their references. We were expecting to receive 2D drawing references for Rayman, but to our surprise, they sent us data of a brand new 3D model that they rendered for this game!! And that was how this trophy was created. It takes a lot of work creating each model, so it's wonderful that the creators contributed their own efforts!!

So they just revealed a Rayman trophy. I like Rayman and all, but having him as a trophy seemed kinda unnecessary... Unless...

I am now more scared than excited about today's character announcement. Call me conservative, but I'm a little hesitant about the appearance of western third parties in Smash. Dr Wright as an AT should count though, right?

Some people need to get out of the video game dark ages because accepting Western-style content "so long as long as it's interpreted through Japanese eyes" is not an acceptable design principle.

Kind of weird that Rayman is a trophy. Seeing as he isn't owned by Nintendo. I don't know, maybe he's an assist, that'd be cool. Maybe since Ubisoft made the model themselves they wanted some kind of cross promotion for some up-coming Rayman thing.

...........................

*Sob* WHHHHHHYYYYYYY!!!!! SAKURAI, WHHHHHHYYYYYYY-

*sniff* ...I'll take what I get... it looks g-great...
Sorry to see your hopes raised and then get crushed. It sucks when things like that happens. Maybe DLC or something.

I just watched Reggie's speech to the EVO smashers and this made me laugh more than it should.
I also laughed too much at the Robot Chicken Reggie behind him in the video.

Nope. I will not believe what nonsense Sakurai is spouting about. This is a third party character who I've waited for for years.

There's still a chance. The newcomer reveal today can still reveal Ray-Man. Sakurai could just be leading us off, just like he has with customization & 3rd party limits.

Although he said he had to ask for the Model(and he is implying he had no model to work with beforehand), he isn't that clear whether he could be playable or not. Especially since we don't know when he asked for Ray Man's picture. And yes, he could've made his own model for playable anyway. Keeping this in mind, it does sound like he's no more than a Trophy, but gotta wait and see regardless. He has specified before when someone's not playable, so this one is definitely a mystery. Plus, DLC is possible, so...

If Rayman is confirmed, I would be disappointed for a number of reasons

One being that if Rayman could work, Sukapon would have worked

About Rayman, I would remind you that Nintendo published Rayman Legends in Japan. It could be the explanation.

I'm expecting a Bayonetta trophy as well now.

This was the first thing I thought of as well.

Hell I would've taken that weird playable Andross suggestion before all this incredibly convoluted effort for a really fancy trophy.

Ray-Man, Pac-Man, Mega-Man...

Man, that's a lot of Mans...
You forgot Jump Man.
