Just noticed this but Olimar's new look is kinda weird with that whistle sticking on his helmet.
Well before he pulled out the whistle, so that appears to be for convenience.

Also, I wonder if we can expect this for more games' release date (in Japan or elsewhere).

Sakurai is clearly using that release date thing to get in our heads and troll us!!!

SAKURAIIIIIIIIII!!!!!

I'd say Peach is more likely newcomer to be revealed next. After her it is followed by Yoshi and Meta Knight.

I think Luigi, if he's revealed at all, will be either late this year or at the very end of the reveals.
I'm honestly surprised Yoshi hasn't been shown yet. There's been two new Yoshi games announced and he's the only veteran that's been in every game as a default character that we haven't seen yet.

Hopefully he's been reworked, like Bowser and Pit were.

Lag? You mean like the lag before/after attacks?

That's understandable.

I mean if you've played brawl wifi for as long as I have, you'd know that fighting Olimars in lag is stressful hell. Then again, I do main a character that has a disadvantage against him... so that just makes things worse. D:

Actually, I think that confirms either the Mega or Mini Mushroom.
In Smash terms, the Pikmin are either way too small or Kirby is way too big.
Looks to be part of Kirby's swallowing animation? At least, that's my guess. The specific animation isn't important I guess, just that it's definitely not the mushrooms.

In hindsight today was a celebration of Pikmin 3's release, almost exactly a month after the first reveal, and let's say EVO (for all you competitive Smashers out there).

To be fair he also kinda did this with Villager with New Leaf. Not going to say we're looking at a trend, though I will say that we're all delirious from staying up late and over speculating again. :awesome:

Anyway I'm heading off to bed so I'll leave this here so I can exit in style. :shades:

I think Yoshi is going to be reworked like Bowser and Pit, definitely. And yeah, for whatever reason, he was the last character of the original 8 revealed in Brawl, too, even after the Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island stage and the Yoshi's Story (Ending) theme with the "crying" Yoshi's all but confirmed Yoshi as a playable character.
Yeah you're right, I was only saying there's nothing to really indicate this will be any different from last time, as he had the same name in the English DOJO as he does this time as well.
I'm just saying that because more streamlined names, languages, and voice actors probably means that a worldwide same day release date is much more likely, as would the 2 games being released about the same time everywhere. That is why I am bringing that up.

I don't want to wait 2 months after the release to play it, and I am fairly certain Europeans and Australians don't want to wait like 5-7 months again. Heck, if Pokémon can do a worldwide release date, why can't smash bros=??? There's really no reason not to, even with the stupid region-locking system in place.

I think that fighting ANY character in lag is stressful, as long as the player knows what he/she is doing.

I think Kirby's just standing there. That doesn't look like a Kirby that swallowed someone. But who knows, right?

Good to see Olimar confirmed. It doesn't look like his gimmick has been watered down, which is good.

Oh man, this Sakurai guy is even more into our heads than we thought our heads had previously been able to!!!

IT WAS A TRAP ALL ALONG GUYS!!! RUN!!! RUN!!! RUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also, a bunch of Virtual Console Mega Man games were release the day of/the day after Mega Man was revealed in Smash WiiU and 3DS. :shades:

That's literally 3 close to release date dealio's we have now had with smash bros. character confirmations.

Well his feet are much smaller than his body, so he's doing one of his animations where his body grows for a split second for some exaggerated effect. I'M SURE EVERYONE HAS SEEN WHAT HAPPENS TO YOSHI WHEN YOU PAUSE IN THE MIDDLE OF HIS SWALLOWING ANIMATION.

I guess my fan club is in full force and disguising their millions as mere single individual viewers! :grin:
Sakurai confirms Dixie Kong as an item.
Come to think of it, Brawl didn't have a Donkey Kong assist trophy character.

Maybe that would be DK Jr., Cranky Kong, or Funky Kong.

As for Dixie, either she's a playable character or she doesn't have a role as an NPC; it's just that simple IMO.

No, not as an Assist Trophy, but as an item. :troll:

Cranky Kong should replace Resetti entirely with the same mechanic, but with classic CK talk.
That way Resetti can be a playable character

Rambi would be the best DK assist trophy, in my opinion.

Just noticed that his whistle is on his helmet this time. Man the Pikmin also look SO much better than in Brawl.

Olimar's model looks like an updated version of his Brawl model (barring the whistle).

The Pikmin look completely redone though, and they are amazing.
