Hmmm

AC Stage + Ac Assist Trophy + X = Complete AC Set

Now those of us who have had algebra could easily solve -through a long, frustrating set of mathematical equations ( or so the thread maker thinks) that there will indeed be an AC character

AC character is almost inevitable

Well, they ALL are Smash Bros stages, now aren't they? I suppose everything that has the Smash icon only exist in the Smash universe and aren't in any other game...

...Wait, what about Devil or Dr. Wright?

If there was only a stage it would still most likely get the Smash icon only
But see, I wasn't talking about Assist Trophies or items or all those other things. I was talking about stages. Stages are more important to the game than items or Assist Trophies can ever hope to be.

Wouldn't mind that, honestly. Have some Wii to DS integrated into Brawl to import your AC character from Wild World to play as the AC Human.
If that happens, I have to buy the DS Version...I only have the original...That would be cool though

Oy, I wish Sakurai would just come out and announce an AC character if there's going to be one to end all this arguing once and for all.

yeah, kind of like that French site that said G&W, ICs, and YL were out.

haaaa......
Yeah, but that's wrong, Famitsu is literally legit, and there's now pics to prove it. So yes, this isn't just some stupid rumor that's false.

My point is...If anything it would be a legit...most likely Japanese magazine or site...

But only Sakurai and the makers of the characters know for sure

It isn't legit because it's Japanese, it's legit because it comes from Famitsu.
As far as this game goes, nothing is legit without screenshots or Smashbros.com confirming it.
EDIT: Now that I think about how easy photoshopping is, nothing is legit without smashbros.com saying it.

Yeah it is. People just f-cking deny it all the **** time. Guess what? Things will be leaked, and official websites won't EVER always have information revealed outside of it. That's the way it's always been.

Are you suggesting if Famitsu literally interviewed Sakurai himself and he listed all the playable characters in Brawl, that it wouldn't be legit because he hasn't put them on the site yet?

Okay, I guess that was a really bad choice of words on my part.

But the thing is, with this game, smashbros.com is really the only thing that we can be 100% sure is correct. Nearly everything else has been wrong one way or another.

And you people act as though I'm saying there won't be an Animal Crossing character in Brawl.

I'm not.

I'm saying that at the moment, there is no 100% reliable proof of it.

My question towards the TC:

People have so much beef against AC. But they're Ballin'

My question to you: Why do you believe that my most recent post in this topic (not counting this one) doesn't exist?

Seriously, guys. There's literally nothing that says there must be an AC character except for the posts by all you people that claim it.

I know I'm going to get a "There's an Animal Crossing stage!" response, so I'll say right now: So what?
There are stages based on the Smash Bros. universe. Why aren't some of the Smash Bros. exclusive characters playable?

And someone's going to say "Why would they put the world icon if there wouldn't be a character?"
Maybe because there's a stage.
The main reason people believe there is an Animal Crossing Playable Character is simple; Educated Guess based off of the previous Smash Bros. games.

Both Smash Bros (64 and Melee) followed the same 'theory' in regards towards Playable Characters, Franchise Icons, and Stages.

Every Playable Character ==> Franchise Icon
Every Franchise (Icon) ==> Stage (with the exception of the Smash Bros. Icon, which has it's own franchise characters and memorabilia scattered throughout the game)

Therefore the logically conclusion would be...

if A = B, and B = C, therefore A = C

Every Stage has a Playable Character and Franchise Icon attached to it.



Either way... In the end it's all just simple speculation and mathematically theories.
Nobody is 100% right apart from the developers down at Sora Ltd.
Not you, Not me, Not anyone else who has posted in this post.

Just my $0.02

So Marth = A, Falshion = B, ??? = C
Oh yea... Forgot about that XD

That one was weird too ... lol. I'll assume that they wanted to give FE a stage, but decided to cut it at the last moment due to Sakurai feeling that the American Audience didn't know Fire Emblem at all... or perhaps time constraints...

You got me though... but either way, Fire Emblem Stage and Smash Bros. Franchise aside... it follows the logic I posted.

Because this site is made for speculation so people are speculating?

I'd guess that an AC character stands a better chance than a lot of characters like Ridley, Dixie Kong or more Poekmans because there are already characters representing those franchises whereas AC doesn't have one yet.
QFT, thats exactly what I was thinking...

So what would they name the character? Animal Crosser?
The official website labels every character in Animal Crossing as Citizen. So that might be a suitable name choice.

Towner... Boy... Girl...


We have Pokemon Trainer... we can have anything really.

Also, don't forget it might be Tom Nook as well.

You win a million internets for not buying into the "LOLZ NOOK DECONFIRMED" propaganda.

You lose a million internets for not listening to logic.

But since I don't want to turn this topic into a Nook discussion, I'll drop the subject of Nook here.

"Blah blah blah stages in SB64 blah blah blah no real proof" does not count as logic. I can make a thread about who I don't want in Brawl to and make it look like an unbiased perspective but I won't, because I'm not against anyone. Being against anyones inclusion is foolish. Remember Pokemon Trainer?

...I...I never mentioned SSB64 while arguing about Nook.

EDIT: NOW I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON.

You just said why people believe that there will be a playable AC character in your own post. Maybe you don't believe that there will be an AC character, and that's great. But most of us do, and we're probably right.

That picture is not form famistu, it's from Nintendo dream. But anyway, I have no idea if the interview clip we have is true or not. In the end if it's fake, it has nothing to do with whether we have a character or not, we either do or don't. We most likely do, as I would feel that wasting time with an Animal Crossing stage with no character is pointless, no Animal Crossing fans in their right minds would buy this game because of a stage and an item that can potentially ruin an epic match.

Logical reasoning and common sense lead me to believe Animal Crossing will get a playable rep; perhaps even this Friday.
