I just found out Pac-Man had been "shown" in screenshots before...

Check his trailer at 0:47:

Now check these images from a press kit released shortly after the Smash Direct in April:


Sakurai really is sneaky...

You can?

To me he looks like a cross between Edward Scissorhands and Megatron.
If you tell me it's Shedder then I could pick out details like the helmet and wrist spikes, if I not known that I may not have believed it at first.

You know what that means?

There are characters hinted at before they are actually revealed.

I can think of three right now.

Ridley, Dark Pit and Mr. Game & Watch?

When Sakurai showed pictures of one of Pac-Man's attacks/summons before the character's reveal, anything goes... And so the plot thickens...

Legend of Chun-Li was kind of another level of bad though if I recall right.
I've seen worse films, but no I wouldn't recommend it.

Where Dragon Ball Evolution, while not a good adaptation, makes for an absolutely spectacular time as a B-movie, Legend of Chun-li will bore you immensely.

Didn't Dragon Ball Evolution get a game sometime?

Frostwraith has got this newb doppelganger and I was just "introducing" everyone.
Ah.

Ridley: his shadow was shown in the Smash Direct
Mewtwo: Hinted at in Greninja's trailer
Mr. Game & Watch: In Pac-Man's trailer

GameXplain thought the Special Flag was a Namco version of the Pokéball and Assist Trophy.
There was also a cloud shaped like Pac-man in the Greninja trailer.

Also, great job bringing things back on topic, Frostwraith. :)

Well I mean, why not? It's fun to troll every now and then, and Sakurai knows that.
Why now he's done more than usual I don't know. Maybe it's because we're more hyped up this time around.

It actually did, believe it or not. For the PSP. It's kind of a Tekken knock-off with awkward character animations (particularly with Yamcha's walk animation).
Or my favorite part. The cardboard cutouts moving.

The Special Flag is an item and the characters hold it like an Assist Trophy, so it might be a summoning item.

However, with Pac-Man having a summoner moveset, things get confusing.

A Ridley is definitely going to be a boss character. If you pause at the right moment you can see his wing, and it's far too big* to be playable. The real question is if this whether this deconfirms Ridley as a playable character or not. I think that as the Ridley in Other M is a clone, he still has a chance, and that Sakurai is just trolling us.

*Please resist the urge

Also, I recently learnt that "deconfirmed" is a relatively new word. Before then, "disconfirmed" and "denied" were the opposite of "confirmed". :upsidedown:

Did anyone make a video of Megaman's Final Smash with "Rules of Nature" playing? Seems like the sort of thing that would be done by now.

EDIT: Turns out they did. Pretty cool.

Ive been 'lurking" this site for a while lol finally stopped being lazy and made an account;
Anyways on things people care about, do you guys think Megaman would have his different versions as his costumes, i.e Legends, Battle Network, etc.

Somewhere magical
Those would have to be rescaled to fit classic Megaman, could look a little awkward but could possibly work if done right.

Welcome first things first. With ur second point might be hard since a lot of them are different heights i believe which change hitboxes etc.
