Gee, I never thought about that.

:yoshimelee:

I mean there's so many choices.

:yoshi2:

I'll probably spend like ten hours on the CSS alone.

:4yoshi:

How will I ever decide?

Greninja without doubt, but, if he's an unlockable character, I'll check out Yoshi.

Shulk or Robin if they're not locked. I'm on the fence about which because Robin's moveset looks more unique and interesting, but Shulk's isn't known about and has potential given his character.

If they are locked, I'll just go with Samus, then Bowser. Seems every other character I plan to use has a good chance of being locked though.

Agreed, Robin looks cool as hell, but I am a bit worried about his multiple swords/tomes etc.

Depends on the starting roster, which I have no earthly idea of at this point. I'll be grabbing Little Mac if he's there and possibly never let go. If Mac isn't there then I'll go with Mega Man, and if the blue bomber isn't there I'll have to check out Link I believe.

I'd say Megaman, but I doubt he will be on the starting roster. So Probably Little Mac and that sweet, sweet Jogging Suit.:4littlemac::4megaman::4lucina:

When I brought Brawl home on that midnight launch, the first thing I did was take Wario to battlefield in practice mode, Yoshi as my training dummy.

I hummed Also sprach Zarathustra as I walked up and unleashed the waft, and all was good.

I imagine I will do the exact same thing when the 3DS game gets in my hands.

If rob is on the starting roster, than rob. If he isn't then Ill just play mario and bowser, and then eventually get into new characters.

After an internal struggle, months of deep thoughts and extensive research... Who am I kidding?

CAPTAIN FALCON.

If he's on the starting roster (not to mention on the roster, period), then I'll start this new adventure with Ness. Otherwise, I've been dying to try out Villager.

Shulk, but he's likely not a starter, so either Samus or ZSS if unlocked.

Seeing as I played as all the newcomers available at Smash Fest (twice), I will be going with Robin (assuming Robin is a starter). If unavailable I may just hit random.

Most likely Peach:4peach:, or Rosalina:rosalina: just because I already got to play as Zelda:4zelda: in the demo ^_^

Most likely Yoshi since he's been my main guy from the other games. Though, there is a chance a might play as Greninja or Pac-Man first as well.

Welp, if the eShop starting roster is to be believed, probably Luigi, because everything I've seen of him looks awesome. If not, probably Mario.

In the light of Shulk's official confirmation...
I'm assuming Shulk will be a starter character, so if that's the case, Monado Activate!

It'll probably be Robin if the former is an unlockable, assuming Robin is a starter. xD
