It's a step above the bland Tunic recolors like Fierce Deity White at least.
Why would you bother with an alt like this if you aren't going to make a proper model for it?

Fuck yes
Wish they went with an actual alt though
Really want Toon Link pajamas
And we'll probably get SS Zelda colors too now
Btw, this need to be in the game

Doesn't read OPs, especially not his own
Neat.
EDIT:
Pic of the day. Here's Link in an outfit based on his ordinary clothes in Skyward Sword! The art style looks a little different, but the actual clothing model is still his usual tunic.
Oh shit!

Oh that looks sick :O
Speaking of alt costumes, did the E3 build have stuff like Dark Link, Dark Pit etc? Or just standard red/blue/green/yellow team colours or whatever?

I either want back to Melee dark link, who looked great, or
Ravio without the outfit Dark Link
And Bowser needs a
Dark Bowser

Oh man,
Ravio
No Dark Link or Dark Pit from what I remember. Which does make the ending of Palutena's trailer more interesting.
It was only four per character, but it wasn't that strict. Fire Mario was an alt, for example.

Nah, the normal recolors were better looking than this hodgepodge. If you can't/won't do something full-assed, don't bother half-assing it like this.
[post=83912637]If they want to go crazy with the Toon Link colours I have a few suggestions[/post]
If there is one idea that I wanted that I knew would never come it would have been a way to make your own alt palettes with a method to select fixed spots i.e. Mario's hat, gloves, top, dungarees and shows and change the colours. A bit like The Last Story's (if you haven't played it do so now) armour mode.

Agreed. While, yes, it is lazier than going all out and making a model with new clothes, in this case it actually looks really cool, alternate take on the outfit. It's almost like what the descendants of the SS Link would be wearing if he had never got that green tunic. I approve!
But seriously Sakurai: Project M can do real alts, you can too!

Seriously, that tunic color is gross.
Well, hopefully this means we'll see a lot more character alts across the roster, if not all.

I'll be pretty damn pissed if green Kirby isn't in the final game... (at least we know that's not all, since Wireframe Mac isn't there. Unless he's not in the 3DS version for whatever reason?)

Yeah it looks great to me. Link was one of my mains in Brawl and this'll be my go to costume for him in Smash 4.
OricWindstar

Agreed. I usually use Zora Tunic Link, but I'll probably be switching between that and this new one come Smash 4.

Same here. It reminds me of the early days of Brawl texture hacks when people could only work with the model and existing texture.
It would be nice if we got proper alts though but like I said, definitely a step up from the boring tunic recolors.
I agree - it's better than a recolour, but I was kind of hoping that with all the manpower at Sakurai's disposal, he'd be able to integrate better alt costumes than hackers in 2008. Even just removing Link's hat for this costume or shrinking Samus' shoulderpads for the Fusion palette would look so much better.

Last minute? Shoehorned? Recolor? How can one string 3 wrong words together like that.
Sakurai isn't big on actual alternate costumes. The only ones we've gotten so far (Overalls Wario, Female Villager, He Fit Trainer) were chosen because they are just as important to the character as the standard costume. I see no problem with elaborate texture alts like Wireframe Mac and this new Link one.
So now that the PotD release happened, I've been thinking more about why Snake is probably in this game.
Sakurai has stated many times that he greatly dislikes removing characters. Besides the clones from Melee which I think we all honestly can live without just fine, Mewtwo has been the only significant cut in the entire series, and he most likely would've been included as well if it weren't for Sonic considering he was in development. And while he's obviously not the same character, Lucario has similarities to him, which make it a bit more understandable to put Mewtwo on the back-burner, especially with Lucario's popularity at the time. Similar to possibly Lucas this time around.
Something I don't think I've ever seen brought up before is this. When he's making the arrangements for third-party characters, especially considering the time he puts into each of them to make them unique and represent their series, don't you think a point for his consideration would be them returning for future games? While I doubt that there's any sort of "3 movie deal" contract at all, when you think about it, it seems like it most definitely would be an important topic of discussion. To get into Smash as a third party is honestly a pretty big deal, so seeing if they're open for their character to be included into the series as it continues sounds perfectly reasonable considering the hard work and success this series has shown.
Just something to think about. There are plenty of things to factor in. I mean, it's possible that he doesn't consider this at all. And it's also possible that he could've told Kojima, Capcom, or any of the others something like "This could be/is a one time deal!". But for someone who seems so concerned with preserving the legacy of his series, I think that it's something that would be brought up.
August Direct.
Come to me.

I'm really glad you came back.
Alt colours don't change the physics of a character.
