Wait, ALL characters will be revealed on August 12th? No secret unlockables?

That's kinda bad, I'd like to have some surprises ._.

Also, no Nintendo Direct reveals? And what about Sakurai, would he be present for this "special broadcast"?

If there are new playable characters to be revealed on August 12th, one of them better be Ridley...
Well i know how it went for brawl of everyone revealed are starters but

Dude did you even look at todays potd

On the phantom knight trophy did you even look the word right above the price

And that word is UNLOCKED.

And second sakurai said this when luigi was announced


A REAL pic of the day--Luigi joins the battle! In prior games, we've never introduced Luigi before release, but why not? This is the 'Year of Luigi,' after all.

So luigi was a aception to being anounced for luigi day.

Can you guys answer something for me? I know that on the pic of the day it's Charizard, (It matches up perfectly with his smash art) but is that Pacman next to Charizard? I don't think it is because the entire circle is below Sonic and has no arms, so who is it?

The main thing people are likely looking forward to is if they give any new info on pyrosphere, pretty sure corocoro went back on the statement of it being 3DS only, but others have said that's not the case recently, so no idea.
Really?
wow that's nuts considering its probably going to be leaked later today
hell some of its already (possibly) leaked today, at least a bit of the Pokemon portion has

Is everyone worried about coro coro showing all the characters?
Because last i checked they specifically said they would be showing all REVEALED characters.
Also to be fair all the characters are going to be revealed before the game hits western shores anyway, so if you're like me and don't want the super spoilers you're going to have to stay of the net for about a month
I'm sure we won't see the whole roster in a magazine, considering Sakurai still has some trailers left up his sleeve and I don't think he'd like to show a newcomer trailer after CoroCoro revealed them. It just doesn't fit his style.

And I'm sure we'll have official reveal for all characters before the game hits the rest of the world. The thing is I'd love it if Sakurai showed all of them at once someday (in spoilers, of course) to avoid someone leaking them before he does.

Cool, you use Adobe Illustrator as well? Is that CS6 or is it a Mac version of CS5 (mine is in grey and on PC)? I use CS5, mainly for designing logos.

Cool Ridley coaster by the way :3
It is CS6. =u= I have used it just to trace typography and to trace that Ridley drawing....it still makes get confused...

and thanks!! -u- it is just the mold...the real thing isn't finished yet...


Heh. I use GIMP, which is a whole lot less complex than what you are using. At least, it feels that way, probably because I'm used to it.
Yeah....I'm a novice with these kind of programs.....

I would have no issue with having all the newcomers officially revealed before launch, actually. I mean, I'm going to know the full roster anyways, so I might as well have Sakurai spoil them for me with high quality pictures hidden in spoilers, just like he did with Brawl.

I can see something in the lines of "Pic of the day. This is the whole roster, hidden characters included. Open at your own risk!" happening. Actually I can't, but I'd love to see it happen.

But back to the topic, I think that Ridley should be revealed in a huge trailer with tons of people watching, so a Direct would be the best possible time to do so. I mean, he is by far the most requested character in the series, you just don't want the surprise to be ruined like that.
It'd be cool if Sakurai posted a pic of the day which showed the finished character select screen. With no secret characters unlocked, of course.

Kirby (I think)

justwantedtoletyouknow

All I'm hoping is for Corocoro is to leak a newcomer that's a starter
like9-Volt
Nintendoplz
...Oh, and Ridley. I hope he gets the Corocoro reveal, but not after a Direct. :3

Corocoro is either gonna be BIG (:troll:) or a massive dud. If it's gonna be a huge reveal then Sakurai has to announce something tomorrow at the latest. If now is the time for Ridley, learning his fate by a leak is not fitting for him.

I expected a little news from coro coro when i got back but I did not expect this. . . .my theory about a direct announcement tomorrow for monday may actually be right for once (but coro coro has been so confusing I doubt it)

unrelated I'm nursing a 2nd trophy theory based on the 2nd potd which ghast would like because it has Krystal. But I have no proof yet and won't for awhile

At this point learning about any newcomer via a leak is disappointing. I doubt corocoro is going to be very interesting. Still holding out for a big villain trailer which would satisfy not only Ridley fans but also K Rool and Mewtwo fans

There's an upcoming general direct? When was this announced?
No Direct has been announced (yet), just a possibility of one being next week.

They could make an announcement for a Direct tomorrow, stating there'd be one for next week.

Or there's a possibility of a Robin/Lucina video happening for next week, and a Direct eventually happening towards the end of August.

No-one knows really (other than Sakurai and Nintendo...).

Really, your sure its a Smash 4 event? If so I have to go if there's one close by me.
Yep. But it's only being done by particular stores, and I think only those stores have been informed about it so far. Ask your local shop what the biggest one in the area is, then give them a call to double check.

Yea...The chances of corocoro just going over what we already know is higher than getting something big, but you can't rule anything out just because of how confusing the situation is. Some people say we're going over what we know, others say differently...SEURGBSFVFDU so frustrating!

I'm telling you guys, something is going to happen at Gamescom. There's going to be a Smash Tournament too.
That's what everyone said about Comiccon
All we got was NES Remix.
It's not worth it, Unca Scrooge. :(

Remember guys. For each day we get no news on Ridley, the closer we come to the day we DO get news on him. So no matter what we get closer and closer to the answer!

Yea, weird logic...BUT IT WORKS FOR ME!!

So right now if they are going over wii u stages (we still don't know which is bad communication on coro's part) I entirely expect a trailer or direct announced for monday. They won't just dance around pyrosphere like that

Since it's leaking new Mega Evolutions
As long as it has Mega Slaking I'll be fine.
9-Volt, Bandana Dee and/or Ridley would make it perfect, though.

A children's magazine is going to go over info in Smash Bros (We don't know what) so you fully expect Sakurai to release a trailer on Monday because it might say Pyrosphere is a mysterious stage or whatever if it's even brought up?

No.

Didn't Sakurai hated how the secret characters (and everything else) were spoiled in Brawl by fans leaking stuff?

I totally expect the full roster to be officially shown before release, including the unlockables.

You know, the classic design is rather goofy when viewed straight-on...
That gets me thinking, which version do you guys want to be the Default Model for Ridley? And which one for the Alternate Costume?

Basically, which Ridley should be the one to have a Mugshot on the Character Select Screen?

I really think the Brawl Version of Ridley should have the Mugshot. Roidley should be an alt. If possible.
