Just woke up (I'm a deep sleeper), and holy ****.
That Rayman trophy is awesome.
I did not expect that, but this raises hopes for at least something for Layton!

Anyone else get the weird feeling that Smash Bros is turning into a "Historic Gaming Icon" fighter rather than a Nintendo icon fighter?
I mean even ****ing Rayman is a trophy in the game for no ****ing reason.

No words left to describe Sakurai's genius.
I am absolutely speechless.
LOL people thinking Kojima and Kamiya are the best trolls in videogaming LOL

Makes absolutely sense and it's the right way to go.
**** all the third party haters. I'd be down for a Smash 5 which introduced only third parties, like 15 of them.

If so, then it's basically what I'm fearing it's doom to be.

Not really. All of the fighters in Smash pertain to Nintendo in some way.

Sonic and Mario were the mascots of huge rival companies in the 90's, and now they're best buddies.
Mega Man is practically a Nintendo character, all of his most popular series were Nintendo exclusive.
Pac-Man represents the arcades, a huge part of Nintendo history as well.

Nintendo and Ubisoft have been partners for a while, so naturally they get a little recognition too.

Which means the game is turning into what a lot of people who have no clue about Nintendo (Which is a surprisingly large amount) thought it was from the get-go.

And I am 100% okay with this as I feel it should've been like this from the start. It's more fun that way.

The game is still mostly about Nintendo. Sakurai wants to keep third party content limited, after all.

Anyway, this was completely unexpected.

Sakurai possibly wanted us to be hyped until the video reveal... and he succeeded...

Granted the fact Banjo Kazooie cant actually be included upsets me.

Let's see, fifteen new third-party newcomers. My picks...

- Bayonetta (of course)
- Shovel Knight
- Rayman
- Shantae
- Nightmare (Soulcalibur)
- Son Goku
- Ryu Hayabusa
- Zero (Mega Man)
- Phoenix Wright
- Scorpion (Mortal Kombat)
- Jill Valentine
- Banjo-Kazooie
- Maxwell from Scribblenauts
- Steve?
- Shadow Blaze the Cat

Does Mozart count as first-party since he's being held hostage by Nintendo?

As much as it pains my heart that Banjo will never be playable (unless M$ sells the franchise back to Nintendo), I'm still as happy as I could possibly be that my second favorite has a chance. He may not be playable, but just the fact that he's in the game shoots his chances to be DLC up. I would throw so much money, so much money... I wonder how a Rayman Amiibo would look.

If it wren't for the fact Sakurai doesn't want Fighting game characters that play similar to SSB ones, I'd take Fulgore any day over Banjo-Kazooie. However, I do admit they'd likely be very original. But it's a duo fighter, so...

Wait... I'm so damn confused. Is Rayman playable?

If not, I can totally understand trophies for Sonic the Hedgehog, Mega Man, & Pac-Man (and Metal Gear to a degree) BUT A TOTALLY DIFFERENT COMPANY WITHOUT A SINGLE PLAYABLE CHARACTER????

Should I try and get some sleep before the reveal, or just stay up for it? I'd only be in bed 2 hours before the reveal but I'm really tired. I don't know what to do!

He has not been confirmed playable in any way. Sakurai's earlier wording makes it sound like he planned to make his own 3D model. Which doesn't mean much, so...

Have you ever experienced this feeling ?

This feeling that your all-time most wanted character is gonna probably be revealed in less than 5 hours now ?

Could you imagine the arguments and debating that would have taken place if Ridley's trophy was the PotD?!

But I don't expect Brian(Quest 64) in this game. :troll:

Seriously, unless it's actually a Ridley reveal(of the viable and possible characters), I'd be disappointed. I'll be happy if it's someone other than the leaked guys, though.

I'm assuming this is because your respect fr me was already 99.5%, right? :D
There is no limit to my Blaze propaganda.
No, it was at 0. Now it's .5%. ¦D

Jokes aside, love Blaze. <3 Still easily the best Sonic character out of the bunch. Classic or otherwise.

Come at me. ¦(
