Captain Falcon once again proves his badassery.

 

[Stalking Fury]

So.

There's that screenshot on Captain Falcon's page showing him climbing out of his Blue Falcon and there's an Arwing behind him.

Is the Arwing an Assist Trophy or is he on some Star Fox stage? I would upload the screen right here, but the site won't let me do that, it's still reeling from glitches left and right.

 

[UltimateCyborgOverlord]

Sakurai's Desk has singlehandedly broken Smashboards

Anyone else up for just stopping access to the site until it's fixed? I have been logged out against my will 5 times now, I can't upload images to a post as mentioned before, and everything is slow and won't work. Maintenance is necessary.

Yes, that's the one. You were lucky the site let you post that image.

 

[Berserker.]

Why did Lucina's introduction have a question mark?

I have no idea

She probably was viewed as a not-so newcomer because she (MIGHT BE) a clone of Marth therefore, she's not really a newcomer but on paper and by definition, she is a newcomer

Oh and yeah, she's a "newcomer". I hope there's some **** that makes her different from Marth.... OH and Ike had blue flames when doing eruption in that trailer

Oh and I rechecked Lucina's page.... Yep. It says newcomer

 

[Superyoshiom]

Uh guys. There's still one big hole in the deconfirmed thing:

Chrom may be down for the count but at least everyone's favorite rumored character, the Glee Club Kids, are coming. ;P

No. No. No.

Now that we know Gematsu isn't accurate, the Rhythm Heaven newcomer doesn't have to be the chorus men. It could just be Marshall, or even better, some other character like Rhythm girl who's been in all the games.

 

[James Phillips]

What are you talking about?
As sad as I am for supporters of Chrom ...
I'm incredibly happy right now.

I honestly do feel sorry for those who wanted Chrom even though I'm not the biggest fan of Fire Emblem.
Let's just hope Sakurai doesn't pull that again with Ridley and introduce Anthony as the newcomer.

Spoiler

But then again, Ridley fans are used to this kind of stuff from him being in the opening of Melee to one of the bosses in Brawl.

Maybe third time's the charm.

 

[Kaye Cruiser]

Blue flames! Get hype!

 

[MewtwoMaster2002]

Blue flames! Get hype!

Wasn't it during his taunt?

 

[Deleted member]

Yes, that's the one. You were lucky the site let you post that image.

Like I said; it's Falcon's entry animation. Stage is Pilotwings, Fox is also entering.

 

[Kaye Cruiser]

Wasn't it during his taunt?

*facepalm* No, that's Eruption. Look at the animation.

The way he's on his knees and how he rises up. It's Eruption.

 

[UltimateCyborgOverlord]

Like I said; it's Falcon's entry animation. Stage is Pilotwings, Fox is also entering.

NOW I noticed you said that. The site is barely functioning for me, so I didn't even notice you said that before I got forcibly logged out again.

 

[YoshiSonic]

Suck it Gematsu!

"I suppose, sniff, i'll get my chance another day..."

 

[Berserker.]

Wasn't it during his taunt?

He landed on the ground while doing it. Taunts can't be done while air borne

It ain't a taunt

 

[Substitution]

NOW I noticed you said that. The site is barely functioning for me, so I didn't even notice you said that before I got forcibly logged out again.

You too?

 

[SuperiorYoshi87]

How'd that work out for you all?


Tell your source he's a terrible person.

Byematsu.

Tbh it really dosent bother me, I was going to be disappointed if it was Shulk because that means Gematsu is 100% now with that happening plus Chrom being decomfirmed it changes the game. To bad we got Marth with boobs though. Robins cool.

 

[Blargg888]

Nintendo Employee: Alright Mr. Sakurai. Now that we've revealed Robin and debunked that pesky leak, who are we going to reveal now?
Sakurai: The Chorus Kids!
Employee: What!? But Mr. Sakurai I don-
Sakurai: THEY'LL NEVER SEE IT COMING.

 

[Deleted member]

"I suppose, sniff, i'll get my chance another day..."

If you made this; change the file name right now. That's Chrom, not Shulk. The file name is "Shulk_sad"

 

[Deleted member]

Well....

She has her own banner

And her own page

And her own newcomer tag line

And beside her name in her own page, it says "Newcomer"

And.... Yeah. Stretching it. She's a newcomer. Still worried if she's a clone. If she is, I call BS on Sakurai's criteria whatever the hell it is.

No matter what, I still prefer her over Chrom

Dark Pit will have his own banner too when he's revealed to be a specialized alt of Pit. Lucina gets her own banner because while she's a specialized Marth alt, she's not Marth himself, unlike Hii Fit Trainer, Femager, Fem Robin, etc.

Same applies to page.

Tag line had a question mark in it, signifying something unusual. In this case, being not a regular character, but an alt.

Lucina wasn't in Brawl. Regardless of being an alt, she is a Newcomer. Samus was a part of Smash since the beginning, and Zero Suit Samus is Samus, and despite Zero Suit Samus being tied to Samus through Final Smash in her Brawl debut, she is still a Newcomer in Brawl since she wasn't part of Smash prior to it.

And, she has been shown using Marth's attacks and animations. With the sole exception being a different pose in a taunt.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Lucina has boobs?

 

[Backgammon]

I genuinely feel bad for Chrom supporters after all this Lucina and Robin hype.

Yet at the same time, I am hyped to all hell. This is honestly, one of the best things for Smash 4 I could ever envisage. The death of Gematsu, Lucina and Robin and just the hype factor of the entire thing in general.

 

[Rebellious Treecko]

Chrob looks kinda hilarious in that pic with Robin.

He's like: "ADURRRR-OH-NOOOOO!!! MY SPOT AS FIGHTR!!! HOW DID HE GET IN OVER ME!?"

I wanted Chrom in Smash (along with Robin and Medeus), but it's still funny.

----

 

[Substitution]

Lucina has boobs?

I don't think so.

 

[Jason the Yoshi]

I'm not really crying over Chrom's disconfirmation at all. Now that I think about it, it's even better that we have Lucina, because she's our first female Fire Emblem representative, and we need those ladies in Smash!

 

[Pyra]

About Robin:
I didn't know Robin was the default name for FE:A's avatar until today. I haven't played it for ages and I didn't get all that far into it so I don't remember much from it.

Regardless, I love this fighter's concept. Sword + Magic, but considering the nature of Tomes in FE, he has a lot of different tomes, interchangeable.

Sword + Magic.
Awesome fighter concept.

Would have been cool to see Ganondorf with it, too.

 

[SuperiorYoshi87]

Lucina has boobs?

Good point. Well we got Marth without a sword. >.>

 

[Deleted member]

They put Lucina in that trailer to confuse us, didn't they?

I feel bad for them too. The trailer was extremely hype, but I'll be the only one who will mourn Gematsu, because Shulk is no longer guaranteed

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

Well, I got nothing.

I really have no idea what to say.

I'll admit that the ? mark makes it somewhat suspicious, I'll just take things as how it looks and say that she's a newcomer with her own slot. Like you know... That other chara--- Oh ****. I don't want to mention him. I'm gonna cause a flame war here

 

[Stalking Fury]

I just see this as an opportunity for Krystal to be in. More power to the women!

 

[SuperiorYoshi87]

I'm just not all that excited over the fact that Smash is doing Soul Calibur better than Soul Calibur......to many sword characters.... Shulk would just be another sword guy. Owell though I can't talk Link is my secondary

 

[Deleted member]

Anyone else bothered that the video is 2 minutes, 53 seconds and not 3 minutes?

Shulk would just be another sword guy

Um...no. Play Xenoblade, and try again

Google? Ah, people will probably be mad for a while and then calm down.
However, I'm more worried about the Gematsu fans.

 

[Deleted member]

Guys, I have discovered the identity of the tipper! He just sent me this video!

 

[WishOn]

If Sakurai can make all of the sword characters feel unique, which I'm sure he can, then I have no problem with having so many sword-based characters.

 

[Blargg888]

*GASP* HOW CAN THIS BE!

 

[Pyra]

I just got a lot of flak on facebook; Someone said it was Confirmed Lucina is an alternate costume for Marth, and I said it's not "confirmed".

Someone said "That's just her standing there with a filter on".
I'm sitting here thinking "since when has sakurai ever used filters on his images? That's an in game effect".

But how would I know? Maybe Sakurai's an Instagram maniac

 

[SuperiorYoshi87]

Yea I'll admit I never played it. I'm not to big on JRPGs the new one looks cool though so I may be getting it. I still fail to see how Shulks weapon is just a sword, I mean sure it's got wibbly wobbly timey wimey powers but it's still a sword......

I honestly never understood the "too many swords" complaint. There are more people with flip kicks than there are people with swords. Sure, it is a sword, but none of the sword characters have the same abilities Shulk does, or wield their weapon in the same way. Also do yourself a favor, and play Xenoblade. It's a fantastic game. I'm not even halfway through and I highly recommend it. It may be pricey, but it's worth every penny.

 

[UltimateCyborgOverlord]

Well, it seems like the site is functioning a little more normally now. Still can't upload images though, though that seems to be a problem for me and me alone since I see some of you are able to do so just fine.

 

[Moon Monkey]

This needs to be Pikachu's alt cotume! I want Luchador Pikachu!

Idunno I have a bigger problem with the Fire Embem cast more so than any they all seem to have a general feel slash stuff and counter. I'm sure Shulk would be different obviously not having played the games I'm not familiar with his character. From the outside looking in I see guy with sword so I make assumptions. It's a game I'll have to look into sometime. My game budget is thin for awhile so I'll have to find a cheap copy somewhere or else maybe I'll watch stuff on YouTube to familiarize myself with the character.
