Well at least he's not just a mere trophy, and he got the assist status, and at least he got in the game at all!. You have my condolences.

It'd be sick if Sable, Takamaru and Dillon all got promoted next game! (No matter how unlikely it seems anyways...)Sorry for your loss, guys. If nothin' else, it's good that he's getting some kind of spotlight, right?
Hopefully Sable (and Takamru) are the Little Macs of this game and get promoted to playable next time around!
Doesn't it say that in the miiverse pic?Sakurai tweeted confirming he is a Assist Trophy.

The miiverse picture (at least, the second one) described what he did, and was worded in a way to suggest that he is an AT. I'm pretty sure the tweet is a full deconfirmation of his playability.Doesn't it say that in the miiverse pic?
No, it only implies he is. And with some people misinterpreting him as playable that is why he tweeted he is only an Assist Trophy.Doesn't it say that in the miiverse pic?
I loved that qoute way more than i should.Second I'm sorry for loss smash 5 maybeMaybe he will get his chance, another day.
I'm truly sorry![]()
First Appearance: For the Frog the Bell Tolls on the Gameboy in 1992 (Japan only)
Prince Sable is the main protagonist of the game For the Frog the Bell Tolls, who is the prince of the Sabure Kingdom. As he travelled in his quest defeat the powerful King Delarin, he gains powers of transforming into a frog and a snake.

When he transforms into a frog, his jumping ability rises up to a high scale, but his strength becomes to an all-time low. When in Snake form, he damages opponents to their death and has increased speed, but his jumping ability falls off the charts into 1! And as you would expect for a human form, it's the balance between the two form. The transforming aspect can be make him interesting character to play as. If Sakurai were to pick a character from the Gameboy era, Prince Sable would be great choice!
Is he good enough to have a spot in the Smash Bros. Cast? Anyone who played it would remember its satirical and light-hearted moments the game had, exploring the land in a Zelda-esque fashion. In fact, there were some characters from the game that made appearances in the Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening and Wario Land 4.
For those people who are curious to try the game now, here is the link to it.

Silly Sakurai, you forgot to say "FYI".No, it only implies he is. And with some people misinterpreting him as playable that is why he tweeted he is only an Assist Trophy.
I pretty much agree with this, especially the bolded.Don't get me wrong, the prince was my 2nd most wanted character, but today's PotD made me really excited for a lot of reasons!
1) After some years of no cameo appearances at all (he didn't even appear in Captain Rainbow!), the Prince of Sablé is back.
2) Sakurai didn't chose Prince Richard over him. That would be weird and kinda stupid, but it could happen.
3) We are getting good translations this time. His sticker was called "Sabure Prince" in Brawl.
After what happenned with Takamaru, I don't think the prince was disconfirmed as a playable character. He was confirmed as an Assist Trophy, and got a 3D model for the first time.
With Smash, he surely will get a lot of new fans. I mean, look at him. He's most adorable AT yet. Now Takamaru have a cool character to make him company.
