I'm gonna go and guess that it was to promote 3D World.
If Rosalina was already in SSB4... why didn't he show her on November 21 when Super Mario 3D World came out instead of showing us that picture of the original SMB2 cast in the Galaxy stage? There's no logic in deconfirming Toad to promote 3D World when Sakurai always confirmed characters to promote their games.

I was just re-watching the Rosalina trailer.

Was Pit always that tall?
When comparing Pit's size, he was pretty much Peach's height if not a tiny bit shorter back in the Brawl days. If it's still true, then apply that knowledge with the photo of Rosalina, Peach, and Mario together comparing sizes (even though Peach is leaning slightly by using her D-taunt). So in the end, I feel Pit's height is roughly around where Rosalina's chest is. *insert blushing and naughty thoughts here* :laugh:
But really, that's just from observation based on the knowledge I know.

It may also be a resizing for Pit. From what I've seen so far, it looks Pikachu has been shrunk a bit while Olimar got a bit bigger.

We may see this in effect for other characters.

Generally speaking in a game like this, liberties are going to be made to ensure that everyone is on more even footing. It's just common sense.

Well then, hope to see more Pit soon, and more size comparisons.

We've only seen two Final Smashes, Samus' and Wii Fit Trainer's. Weird.

The main thing I want to see about Pit is the Final Smash.

In fact, it's kind of odd how we haven't seen a single Final Smash in a long time.
Seeing Pit's Final Smash would either be a make it or break it for Palutena supporters, because if she's part of the Final Smash then she's deconfirmed, but if she's not she has a really good chance of becoming playable. What I want to see are Rosalina's, Villager's and Megaman's final smash.

Mega Man needs the Rush Adapter. It makes the most sense too. And it's combining two robots together into a stronger Super Fighting Robot. Who wouldn't want to fly around and shoot rocket fist of justice at people? I know I would. Though I guess that Hyper Mega Man from MVC1/2 could work. But that's not exactly form his source material. A robot Master Attack like Astro Crash, Lighting Bolt, Tornado Blow, or Rain Flush could work too. But I'd still prefer the Rush Adapter. Mega Man looks cooler with extra armor too.

EDIT: This new Smashboards is still taking getting used to. Sorry.

Speaking of, they better show off some Final Smashes soon. I'm kinda getting impatient and want to know some of the big stuff already. Most curious Final Smashes I want to see is Pit for sure, to see if Bowser's stays, and I suppose the newcomers as well. Then let's not forget wanting to see more items and moves.

This has probably been suggested before, but I just had an idea what direction Sakurai can take Stickers in the next game, assuming he keeps them: Miiverse. Similarly to how 3D World and NES Remix offer stamps for players to paste into their posts, why not allow players to attach stickers likewise and share them into Miiverse? Maybe Nintendo could even create a designated sub-forum where people can post their mini-scrapbooks. I think this would be a fun way to leverage the social aspect of Miiverse while making an, frankly, worthless collectible more appealing to players.

It's working for 3D World. I say do it.

Did anyone see 47 Ronin? If so, was it any good? It seemed like it would be okay. But it a little too much CGI for my liking for a Kung-Fu movie, from seeing the previews. And that Hercules movie seems kind of cool too. But it does look samey with all those other action movies that take place in the past. With really desaturated colors and all.

How can a movie that takes place in Japan be a Kung-Fu movie?

Well I guess it would be better to call it a Samurai movie. Or at the very least a Martial Arts movie, since that's a more broad term to use. I tend to use Kung Fu in the same vein as Martial Arts, I see them both as broad interpretations or classifications of various fighting styles. So, that's my mistake. Hell, if I'm not mistaken, Boxing, a western fighting style is indeed a Martial Art as well.

I'm gonna be a know-it-all here. Kung Fu and its original term Gong/Gung Fu are very broad statements referring to human achievement and skills, not necessarily martial. In fact, the Mandarin Chinese word for martial arts is actually "Wushu". The Chinese styles have a good number of similarities amongst themselves but have their own differences. Nowadays though, Kung Fu refers to Chinese martial arts in general and not necessarily any one style.

And yes, boxing is a martial art. It's generally used more for sport, which is something @Johnknight1 would better explain than I can. From how I see it though, a martial art IS a fighting style, at least one that has a name.

Japanese people aren't allowed to learn kung fu?
Had a feeling someone was going to respond with that. Considering all the Japanese stuff in the movie, it would stick out to me if a character in a semi-period piece knew Kung Fu. It'd be like seeing Native Americans fighting with Karate during the French and Indian War.

Didn't the Karate Kid remake take place in China? It's Hollywood and audiences don't know any better.
Because Chinese and Japanese are one in the same.

I just saw a '14er for the first time...

All of the sudden I have an urge to sit on my front porch and yell at little children to get off my lawn.

Technically I'm actually an '07er since I made my first account at that time, but then I decided I didn't like my name so I made this one in '08.

God just 3 more years and I've officially been a member of this site for 10 years... Where does the time go man?
