Has this already been posted?
Yup, already posted, and declared a fake too.
@PadWarrior : Oh no. You did not just say that.
Has this already been posted?
Like, 11 times.
The Japanese is jibberish, and all the unconfirmed character select portraits come from Brawl or other art tracked art.
Simon Belmont?
Please, it's all about Shanoa:
shunxsato, is that you?
hmm that's true, dammit lol. I will have faith the Great Samurai will do what's right.

I think Bayonetta would be a more interesting, fun and practical fighter but I generally think 3rd party characters in Smash should be important to Nintendo and tied into Nintendo history. Sonic, Megaman and Pacman are all mascots for their respective company that have a rivalry with Nintendo's own mascot, Mario. Im not too keen on 3rd party characters like Simon Belmont, Bayonetta, Snake, Leon, etc.
Who's Lloyd Irving?
Tales of Symphonia main protagonist.

He's the protagonist of one of the Tales games.
From Tales I think
I've always written those people off as crazy.
Oh, hell no! You did not just say that

Pretty much everyone expected every character from everything ever during the Brawl years. "I mean if SNAKE, a Sony character could get in, then surly Cloud Strife, Master Chief and Inuyasha will get in as well!!!" Thankfully, the disappointment of the Brawl roster has made our expectations relativly more realistic, but I don't go to Smash Boards anymore, so I can't say for sure.
Did you write all those Sonic believers prior to Brawl reveal as crazies too?!
Hahahahahahhaaha

Yessssss, Shanoa is loveSimon Belmont?
Please, it's all about Shanoa:
Wut, why is it 40 on our eshop then? There's no way they make us pay 10 more, especially since 30 would already be more than $30.

I agree with the guy.
Pacman might be a mindless mascot , But he is still better than walk sex pun mic' uninteresting Aka trish MK 2.
Trade her in for a second for pac man, and pac man not even that interesting.

I'm sure Sakurai can do a great job on Pac-Man's moveset. I expect him to be the weirdest of characters.

98% this!
The other 2% is because I kind of want Simon Belmont.
My heart! It's not like I like Snake or Bayonetta it's I just loathe Pacman so I'll take any character over him.

Simon Belmont?
Please, it's all about Shanoa:
Great taste, but Simon is the more logical choice.
Well, since it's safe to assume that they're not going to go overboard with third parties and Konami already had a rep...

Yes.
People presumed we would get a namco rep as they have a hand in the making of the game.
Now look at the list of Namco games on gamecube/wii
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Namco_games#Nintendo_platforms
Of all the games there, the only reasonable characters that had a game on a nintendo home console from namco in the last 2 gens was either A) Pac man or B) Lloyd Irving, having shown up in 3 different games on nintendo systems (The two ToS games, and Soul Calibur Legends. That they chose lloyd as the cameo character for a nintendo soul calibur should be at least a little telling what they think of him with regards to nintendo fans over at Namco). It's help that ToS was the first 3D Tales of game, and somehow the gamecube version is still the definitive version despite 2 rereleases(PS2 jp only and a hd remake ...of the ps2 version)
Is pacman a lot more likely, even ignoring the leak? Sure. That doesn't mean lloyd is a bad guess.
Pac-Man has had arms and legs since the very beginning. Like every other video game character from the early '80s, his sprite doesn't reflect his intended appearance.

Is there a rule that every fake has to have the screen tilted 45 degrees or what

If a Platinum character gets in before a Treasure one then that's fucking disgusting.
Yeah, Pitfall Harry should be in Smash.
There's no need to worry -- neither company will ever have a playable character in Smash Bros.

Bayonetta doesn't belong in smash.
Regulus Tera

It's a compromise I'm willing to make.
At least its not shot in portrait...I think.
Snake seems like an offbeat choice until you realize that it isn't about how he's important to Nintendo but how Nintendo is important to him. The franchise would probably not exist beyond the first game if the NES port of Metal Gear hadn't sold well enough to spawn its own sequel, which in turn prompted the creation of the actual Metal Gear 2, which is the foundational game for the rest of the series.
