  1. Sakurai wasn't kidding when he said Mega Man and Fire Emblem were popular among the composers
  2. I have zero problem with that, Flash Man stage sounds great

On some way it is strange to me. Cloud has as series Emblem this FF not this blue ball from FF7 logo. This could meaning, it is not impossible that it could be more FF reps. But on the fighter page sorted by series the website uses the FF 7 Logo.
Any thoughts to it?

Logo represents little. There is a Tomodachi Life logo for a single piece of music and I don't see fighters coming from that series as they are essentially miis and we have Mii Fighter. But this is Sakurai we're talking about.

Another thing, it's difficult to imagine Square letting the Smash team have more of their money cows when they already have a FF fighting game being developed.

Tomodachi has a logo because it got a stage. Only series with characters or stages got those.

We got Palutena today!

"With her wings and staff, this goddess's attacks cover a wide range. With her up smash, neutral special, and side special, she can create a ranged attack in almost every direction except for directly beneath her! Keep the pressure on your opponents from a distance with ranged attacks!"

Granted, no new information about her, but at least she finally showed up, and on a Friday (well, Thursday for me, but I can treat it as "end of the week"). Now my eyes have to be on watch for a while for something else.
Also found it interesting that she and Pit both had a Friday as their day on the blog.

This is just a though, but do the fighters who haven't appeared on the blog yet have a smaller chance of getting echos?
I figured that they wouldn't put an echo fighter relatively close to the fighter they echo... (Simon and Richter don't count)

Characters shown on the website after September 12th have no chance of getting an echo in the base game.

Incidentally, characters shown on the website before September 12th also have no chance of getting an echo in the base game.

So, you're not wrong!

Nice to see the thread wasn't updated with Palutena at the time... *pouts*

That aside, here's something new! And it's Luigi day.

"He can jump higher than his brother, Mario. His Up Special, Super Jump Punch, will gain maximum damage and launching power when hitting the opponent right at the start. It truly is a "Special" move. He also uses his new Poltergust for his throw!"

The Poltergust thing is definitely new, and it makes me wonder about some of the other characters not show yet. Perhaps some of them might have some interesting changes that we don't know about yet? It did seem like it with Greninja, and now Luigi. Who's next?

There you go again, talking like you're on the dev team.

Today's Pac day...

"This fighter appears in both his classic form and his form with hands and legs. He has many unique special moves, such as using a trampoline or a fire hydrant. For his Final Smash, he grows into a giant Super PAC-MAN, chomping and launching his opponents!"

No new information that we haven't seen already, though.

I'm surprised there aren't any replies on the Lost Painting remix, but we do have a music thread for this game.

This means the only series with playable characters that have not been featured on the blog yet would be Yoshi, Pikmin and Game & Watch, right? Because Bayonetta already had an update on Rodin's Assist Trophy a while ago.

Yoshi and Pikmin already had a song, so Game & Watch is the only, actually.

E: If we have a character tomorrow, we already have our week with 4 characters???

Ahh, right! I had a feeling that I had forgot something.

What do you mean, though? We only had two fighters so far for this week, Luigi and Pac-Man.

Oops. I thought Palutena was Sunday / Monday depending on where you live. But she was Thursday / Friday. My mistake.

Okay so who's up tomorrow? Highest chance is for a Brawl character, so my guess is Olimar.

Hmm...they should of done Olimar last Friday instead of Nikki, since it would of have coordinate with the date the original Pikmin was released in Japan - the 26th of October (of 2001 (on the Nintendo GameCube)).

I hope they're not done with Living Room. The blocks look like they're missing shadows.

Other than that its a real nice stage and i'm happy its back. I never really liked the music though, thank goodness they changed that.

Isn't it a bit unusual that we're having a stage update on Tuesday/Monday? I mean, has that actually happened before?

Yes. We just often get them after the music update. But have gotten them outside of that.
I decided to just go over past stage updates myself. Turns out, the last time we got any stage updates outside of a Wednesday/Tuesday (that is to say, music update day) was in the very early days of the blog, in weeks which had two stage updates. So this doesn't have to mean anything, but it really is a bit unusual.
