All Mario and Kirby are doing is shaking hands, which is perfectly reasonable for two honorable warriors to do before and/or after a battle. They don't "break the rules" to trigger some kind of apocalypse where these villains show up. The villains ARE the "rule breakers". I don't see how that isn't obvious. It says "...someone... or something... breaks those rules", not "Mario... or Kirby... breaks those rules"
No, according to the order of the pictures, Kirby turned into a trophy. Then came back, and shook hands with Mario, which ISN'T fighting. Which is against the rules. Which is breaking the rules.
"...someone... or something... breaks those rules", not "Mario... or Kirby... breaks those rules"
Hmm...Let's put those two over each other.
Someone or something breaks those rules
Mario or Kirby breaks those rules
The thing you have to remember is that nobody even knows what this is. This could be a completley different thing if it's the opening trailer, a single player mode, some sort of co-op mode, etc. I'm not saying that I am RIGHT, I am just explaining why people are thinking that way. It seems that it's what Sakurai was implying. To some anyways.
"I don't see how this isn't obvious."
Because they didn't say anything along the lines of "The big ship and the mysterious clouds (aka mindtricks) broke the rules."
This was a very ambiguous post, don't say that your interpretation is correct. Nobody knows.
Fighting Polygons got their own trophey.
I just don't see any reality in your theory (oxymoron?). I see what you are saying about the polygons, I thought you meant something else- but either way, I just don't see all of them coming together at once and fighting you. Unless you count one-player mode. The one we've always had. The one that basically does that ._. . Maybe you could elaborate a little more.
