I already think the Gematsu leak is most likely true at this point, so seeing Robin in it would of course make me happy, but in terms of likelihood, it would stay on the same spot, wich for me is like 85%.

an idiosyncratic belief or impression that is firmly maintained despite being contradicted by what is generally accepted as reality or rational argument, typically a symptom of mental disorder.
Welp, you heard it folks. We gotta be instituted now.

The funny thing is, the skepticism that we have as well as some others is often viewed as delusion because we're continuing to doubt or bring up arguments against the leak regarding how old it is, etc.

If you support a character that is not on the Sal/Gematsu leak, you're delusional :awesome:
That's what I really hate about the leak: the fact that people act like those who are even a little skeptical of it, or support a character that the leak essentially de-confirms, are delusional and need to face reality. It's like we're not allowed to support the character we want to support just because they're unlikely.

Even if Robin is unlikely, and even if a leak says Chrom will be the one to get in instead, that won't change my opinion that Robin is the most ideal choice for a new Fire Emblem character.

Plot twist, Chrom is gonna make it to SSB4 as a tactician.


Jokes apart, I'd love to see Robin in. At first I wanted him to be a pure tome user, but I end up getting some liking for a sword/tome character (though i still would like magic to be the emphasis of the character).

I guess it depends on the layout of the sword/tome combo. If all standard attacks involve the sword while tome use was through specials, I dunno. It has been said before that Sakurai scrapped the idea for Ike having his ranged attack for Ragnell because of possible of balance issues. With that being said, doubt we'd see a sword/tome combo.

If anything, I'd imagine it would be like choosing what you want to specialize in, like with the Mii Fighters.

Or you can do my idea. All special are magic, all bust one aerial are magic, one aerial and all ground attacks are a Brave Sword. Grab can be more physical and pummel can be more magical and 2 throws can be magical while the other 2 are physical.

Perfect balance between the two.

Speaking of Mii Fighters, I hope Sakurai won't troll us by giving them a Robin/Tactitian outfit. "I heard you wanted Robin, so here you go! :troll: Oh, you wanted them to have magic? Too bad, you'll have to settle with chakram!"

I quite don't like this this customizable thing since we won't be allowed to use it on for glory, so I don't want to actually choose between the two styles. :T

Actually I was thinking of lot's of 2-3 hits atacks mixing magic and sword swings.

I'd have salty tears tricking down my cheeks.

If that happens, I'll make a Sakurai mii just so I can beat the crap outta him. :3

That's what Ridley supporters are already planning to do should the worst happen. Or if Ridley is confirmed I'll just beat up Mii Sakurai with him anyway. :smirk:
I feel like the top 3 Mii bosses people would want to take down would be Sakurai, Reggie and Iwata. I want to fight them all, with strategy! :awesome:

Sounds like a final event match to me.

Having to fight Sakurai, Reggie and Iwata at once? Your body better be ready.

Sounds like an Event 51 from Melee setup. Reggie and Iwata would be the Mewtwo and Ganondorf while Sakurai would be the Giga Bowser. Except in this case, they're Miis of course :awesome:

No one should've been getting excited for it, anyway. Its so that Japanese fans aren't left out at being able to play the game before release. :p
I know. I was just hoping for something that we haven't seen before.

P.S. I was also trying to stir up hype for it.

The only thing we should be hyped for is seeing more footage and hoping to see some things we didn't see in the E3 builds of the demo. Such as Chunky Kong, although he wouldn't hype FE fans all that much. :D

Maybe we'll see a Chrom Assist Trophy?

His reveal would explode on the King K. Rool thread though.

If Chrom is seen as an Assist Trophy, Smashboards is going offline for a while.
Chrom supporters will invade Smash Boards, Ridley's thread will be our only save and grace.

Edit: Invade I mean Invade.

All hell will break loose once we find out who the newcomer from FE is. Whether it's Chrom or Robin. Or freaking Tharja.

If we get Tharja as a newcomer, the trailer is probably going to be a twerk-fest featuring Tharja in Palutena. My reasoning is due to the Summer Scramble DLC and Palutena's thrust in her trailer. This will cause massive nosebleeds and lives will be lost :troll:

But really though, finding out who the FE newcomer will be is like the biggest thing ever.

"Finding out who the FE newcomer is" is too big for playable! Confirmed stage hazard/boss. :grin:
