I must say, even though I never really knew who Sable was, his AT looks awesome. I'm gonna hope for a Lil Mac treatment!

HOLY MACRO! THAT IS SO AWESOME, THEY HAVE DONE HIM RIGHT!
There's so much dedication to it.
Yes, they really, did...

They even added the jingle I requested from the Overworld BGM (Prince's Adventure) as his signature jingle, I'm like too happy. Perfect Assist is perfect. Not a joke like Starfy...

Got your back still!





He's AWESOME. He's gonna be really helpful to score KOs. Don't mess with this little prince.

From here (Go to 01:24)

Cool! So he transform into BOTH of his forms before disappearing. Ithought it was one form each time you summonned him.

Btw, @ ~ Valkyrie ~ ~ Valkyrie ~ , any chance there's footage of other ATs? (if you know what I mean)

EDIT: OMG, that jingle! I wasn't watching with my headphones, but that just fits him!

This is the only one I remember seeing. I think I saw one with Hammer Bro in Magicant (He even was side to side with Flying Man. Damn, whoever thought we'd see a day where that would be possible)

Lyn and Knuckle Joe had their own Japanese voices?
Yes? I have the files for those from Brawl too if ya wanna hear them. I think I downloaded them long times ago.

Lyn was more fitting young woman voice. Joe sounded like his anime-counterpart. Both really good.

Ah ok, I see, considering he is a Japan exclusive character, I think it's much better to keep the Japanese voice than giving him an English one.

Hope for so, hahah- I sadly don't see that happening though. I guess they want the audience to understand what he says. Better just hope he gets a fitting voice for english speech.

EDIT: I think I should have mentioned that I made these gifs! Took a while to learn but I needed to capture this moment.

I'm personally gonna smile every time I end up getting Sable Prince out of an assist trophy. Shame we probably won't get any music. Oh well.

It's been a fun ride.

Interesting Prince Sable actually looks really cool as an assist trophy. He was deconfirmed shortly after I started visiting the boards so I never really had an interest in him, but you know what seeing that assist trophy does make me wish he was his own character as well. Damn it, twice now I've seen the supposed requested retro character's assist trophy only to THEN be excited for potential. I will say that much assist trophy is really the best we can ask for a lot of characters if they can't be in the game proper, glad you at least got something for all of your support for Prince Sable Bluepikmin!

Toon Link's voice sounds more matured than Sable's.
Ness is 13 from what I heard.
Was an actual age given in any of TLink's games?
I heard that WW Link is 12.
I think Sable was older than that, since he was old enough to
It's just the chibi art-style that makes everybody look young.

Here's a full soundtrack of the game if you guys want it.
And here's a question for you guys, should this be turned into a general For the Frog the Bell Tolls discussion thread, like how the the Lip thread basically turned into a Panel de Pon Thread?

Go for it, more people need to know about this gem after all. With the English ROM for the game being around, there's much more to talk about.

I think this should be kept here. The thread will be closed, but it will be archived anyway.
The future generations should see that the prince had a support thread for Smash 4.
But this is just my opinion. :V

So the general consensus here is yes right?
I'll go do the new OP later, I'll keep this big OP here incase the first post gets deleted.

Prince of Sable confirmed as an AT for SSB4! Thank you for posting this pic of the day right after your birthday Sakurai, it means so much to me!







From here (Go to 01:24)


Full Soundtrack:




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.

What. A. Cutie. And he's devastatingly good too. I also keep hearing little anvil noises when he's kicking someone's ass. They really kept him full of charm, right to the sounds.
