Please, everyone just calm down. Now, was I initially disappointed with the roster? Of course! Characters like Ice Climbers, Lucas, and Wolf were gone. No Mewtwo, Ridley, or DK newcomer. And Dark Pit? You kidding me? I was floored. But take away the three clones. That's a solid roster. While there are some decisions I don't agree with (Greninja and no DK rep in particular), I still love the roster. We have some GREAT characters with some great playstyles that, like it or not, have some merit to be on the roster:
  • Villager- This is a given. AC is HUGE. Especially after New Leaf? He was good to go.
  • Pac-Man and Mega Man- also givens. Video game pioneers!
  • Wii Fit Trainer- Like it or not, Wii Fit is incredibly well-known and successful. Not to mention it was hilarious. Something from Wii Fit had to be in there, and she was certainly the thing that needed to be in.
  • Rosalina- She's becoming a popular, important Mario character, from a great series from the Mario universe. Plus, she gives Smash a playstyle not seen before.
  • Little Mac- Come on. Given.
  • Greninja- Okay, I don't agree with the decision. I think Sakurai jumped the gun on an XY character. I feel as if Greninja will fade into obscurity, but hey, he's certainly popular. I guess that's a plus.
  • Miis and Paluten- Given.
  • Robin- Main characters from the critically acclaimed FE game.
  • Bowser Jr. - I would say one of the most important Mario characters yet to be properly represented.
  • Duck Hunt- EVERYONE knows Duck Hunt. It was a huge game in its time. The dog is one of the most deserving characters on this list!
I understand that characters like Ridley, Mewtwo, and K. Rool were passed over. I get it. But come on. You can't say that most of these newcomers were not as deserving as these three.

Then again, it's all in perspective. Still, it's a game. It's fun. It's Smash Brothers. All yall need to calm down and grow up if you're honestly that hurt by Sakurai's decisions.

Now you're acting like a fanboy yourself. Some people like Bowser Jr., some people like myself don't. We all have different opinions so get over it.

No I'm not.
You didn't make a good reason why you didn't want a trailer for the newcomers. You just only said hurr, I don't like these fighter, even though others like him, Nintendo plz don't make trailer and ruin the fun for others.

That's really dumb and really stupid, but whatever. we're going to get one on :4duckhunt: soon, whatever you like it or not.:troll:

What if it isn't Duck Hunt? What if it's actually Nester, and he used Nintendo accessories (NES Zapper, Power Glove, etc.) for his moveset? That'd be so wizard, he'd be my favorite character.

My guess would be Smash Boards!



Falco is a falcon, not a duck.....
Besides, he is already has a friendly rivalry with Fox.

Villager is the most likely rival in a "hunter vs fisher" kind of rivalry
Hes still a bird. A raptor, in fact, which is also a hunter. Villager is NOT necesarily the most likely because the connection would be somewhat vague. Tbh I dount sakurai would actually do something cool like that tho

What if the hand shown is, like, Master Hand's dad or something teaching him how to use old NES accessories and stuff. That would actually be proper funny.

I really don't care if like a fighter or not.
I don't care...

However, there is no need to request something so dumb.

But whatever, :4bowserjr:isn't going to have a trailer, so I hope your happy.
Also Ridley isn't haveing a trailer also

Also, pretty sure more people wanted reveals on new characters as opposed to reveals on characters known for weeks.
The fact that it is not a newcomer makes this video for fanservice. Its not anything new. Its just because its cool and people will like it. Thats how it works as advertising, yo.

@Arcadenik you could try to stop insulting me, and what ego? Do you mean Sakurai's ego? Because that's a gig

Oh I used to be an awesome member? Blame Sakurai, everytime I finally manage to calm down and be civil, Sakurai manages to do something to PISS ME OFF. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.
For every single good thing he does, Sakurai makes about 5 bizarre design choices that make no sense and are completely out of touch with the fanbase.

Yes, more people know about that dog than Ridley, but what do they know him for? Well...laughing, that's it, that's the whole story, that's where it ends.
Also, I'm talking newcomer-wise, Brawl had the most starpower, followed by 64, followed by Melee, and then comes Smash4 with a bunch of irrelevant C-Listers who will fade from memory as soon as they started to exist.

I just can't wrap my head around people being fine with an 'OK' roster, because this roster's missing the fanbase's biggest requests, there's no way you can call this a fantastic roster character-wise, I really don't care for the gameplay elements of the characters, so their 'unique playstyles' don't do anything for me.
Why is it with every new thing that come out, you have to find something to cry about? This is the exact reason why no one respects you. but it is best to ignore this, I don't want to cause more trouble

Ive seen some pretty stupid tag lines for DHD. "Duck Hunt Laughs into Battle!". Seriously tho. Its gotta be more clever than that. Duck Hunt has a lot of possibilities. "Opens Fire!" "Locks and Loads!!". At least I hope it wouldnt be that dumb. "Appears on the Scene!" Is the only stupid one I can think of.

That is true to extent, but

1. Those fans are in the extreme minority, as the 3ds version has sold over 3 mill already, and even more fans know, but are just waiting for the WiiU version

2. The people who wouldn't know probably don't even care about Smash Bros to begin with, so no point trying to convince them.
Yet I know people who love the Smash games, but stayed away from any info on it until the 3DS version, hell I still know a few people who don't know anything about the secret characters because they are waiting to buy the Wii U version. Another thing is, they're just showing a reveal trailer for Duck Hunt Dog... Is that really such a bad thing people have to complain about? I want a reveal trailer because he's a newcomer and it feels somehow wrong to not let him have one.

Am I the only one who kinda feels like this is ****ing with the canon of Smash?

So is the Smash universe a virtual universe on some some kids TV, and that kid can interact with that universe by helping Duck Hunt?

Trying to figure out Smash Bros. canon is like figuring out why the play testers couldn't realize how good Rosalina is.
i'm liking this post simply due to the simile at the end there

I'm not against DHD getting a trailer, its just the timing for one is bad is all. Also, like I said, the friends you mentioned are amongst the extreme minority.

So there will be nothing worthwhile on the Direct? Nice going, Sakurai, you could've tried having a trailer for a character people actually wanted, like Ridley or Mewtwo, thanka for being a stubborn, stubborn man.

I guess we'll only get crappy modes and past stages, righf? Not to mention degrading boss hazards.
You are very righf.

It's not Thursday yet, and I can smell the dang salt everywhere...
Just because your oversize Barney The Dino don't have a trailer, that doesn't mean they're will be anything worthwhile on the Direct/Sakurai will simply not care and add some "crappy gamemodes" or past stages.

You don't know that they're will be crappy gamemodes, you don't know that all the characters will be same, YOU DON'T KNOW! So get off your high horse and stop judgeing the game because Ridley isn't in the game.
I disagree with you. Therefore, I agree with D-idara's statements 100%.
*Sorry about double post.

Well, it's Duck Hunt. Nothing new but it's pretty cool to see a reveal trailer.

Why are you replying to that post when he already made a newer post sorting things out? And what was even the point in posting at all if you didn't want to cause trouble?

I wonder once the wii U game comes out, will people stop harping on the 3DS game.

Because I didn't know everything was sorted out? Sorry that I didn't know what was going on and that everything was done and done...

Hey, another reveal trailer is only something to look forward to. And uhh, looks like this will be the "Newcomer" Trailer on Thursday. No Ridley after all :(
Its pronounced RIDLEY. You need to add a BIG to it. Besides if there is ever DLC it will be MewTwo. I had hopes for RIDLEY, but Sakurai even stated that RIDLEY woud be too big. Besides the 3DS cant handle him. The reason Olimar has 3 Pikmin is not to nerf him, but 6 Pikmin would be too much for the 3DS. And the Pikmin are low quality 2D sprites. Ice Climbers couldnt be in cause the 3DS couldnt handle it.Imagine 4 or 8 RIDLEYSon Yoshi's. It will never happen. Its OK. Sakurai broke my heart too. :(

LOL.... Seriously, if you actually think that Sakurai does not give a **** about his fanbase, you might as well grab a razor blade and draw a bath.

He works his ass off to finish this game for you ungrateful people and you guys are still asking for more? C'mon man, I'm sure we'll get future characters as DLC soon. I'm actually looking forward to tomorrows Direct. I'm pretty sure we will all be surprised with what is going to be announced tomorrow. :grin:

Sakurai don't give a DUCK that he waited so long for the DHD's video.
This keeps the hype train from losing steam from one release to the other. WII U HERE WE GO.
