I love how my Smash husbando looks. And he seems to be faster than in Brawl :3

And I love these new character inclusions, Robyn is definitly and interesting character, seems very unique

 

[Leiru]

Chrom is an assist trophy, NOOOOOOO!

 

[AcademicSaucer]

Chrom looks like a Final Smash

 

[Francokid1]

Cap. Falcon was whoopin ass, they needed to 3v1 him.

 

[Trojita]

Holy Shit

 

[Flip4k]

Where's my Tharja!?

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

Most disappointing reveal trailer along with Palutena.

Uggh. Never going to get a character I want in at this rate.

 

[NotLiquid]

Re: Lucina not having a newcomer banner, it's probably because her poster art is shared with Robin. Her page lists her as a newcomer.

 

[Jawmuncher]

I called that Lucina was going to be an alt for Marth and people said I was crazy.

 

[Videoneon]

LOOOOOL

Finally! Gematsu am dead!

I'll be keeping an eye out for Lucina. A female rep was all but out of the question for FE, and now there's...1 and one-half I suppose.

 

[Fireblend]

I love this news. Lucina <3 Robin <3

 

[Ionic]

Somehow I wasn't even aware Dedede was announced yet.

 

[MrSaturn99]

I AM SO CONFUSED

WHERE IS OUR GEMATSU LEAK NAO

yeah wtf's going on there? lol

 

[ugoo18]

Is the smashbros site taking ages to load for anyone else now?

 

[Draxal]

FUCK YES.

 

[Halo 2]

Robin is awesome! love me some FE chars.
Glad to see cap back as well.

This game can't come soon enough

 

[Seven Force]

If Fire Emblem gets two newcomers and Golden Sun is still relegated to Assist Trophy status, I'll be really disappointed. A potential GS character is pretty much the only thing that could get me excited about the roster at this point.

 

[Samurai_Heart]

GameXplain has a video:

[HUELEN10]

Updated the OP with screencaps. Do we have official art yet?

 

[SatoAilDarko]

So Chrom isn't playable and Lucina is just a clone... :/
I really hope Shulk is in...

There is one light at the end of this tunnel... THERE IS NEW HOPE FOR RIDLEY

Both of these precisely reflect my thoughts right now.

 

[Asd202]

Lucina is just an alt? Hype deflated.

 

[Ridley327]

Is the smashbros site taking ages to load for anyone else now?

It must be getting slammed right now.

 

[Effect]

I really need to finish Fire Emblem: Awakening. This has just given me the push to do so.

 

[Fandangox]

Show me your moves!

So glorious.

 

[ZeroX03]

Why's Female Robin in caps?

Was looking forward to Shulk, but I'm glad FE got a magic user. Swords get boring fast, Robin looks way more interesting.

 

[Ushojax]

It looked to me like the bit at the end was Chrom's final smash. I guess he could be an assist trophy.

 

[Crocodile]

Me right now:

 

[evil monkey]

Is the smashbros site taking ages to load for anyone else now?

same here

 

[NotLiquid]

I called that Lucina was going to be an alt for Marth and people said I was crazy.

She's not a Marth alt. She's her own character.

 

[Bog]

Is Robin the default name if you leave it blank or something?

 

[spindashing]

Whoah uh

whoah

shit

uh

where the fan art at

 

[-MD-]

I didn't even know Robin was his name.

 

[L Thammy]

Hmm, Lucina doesn't have a big Newcomer profile and poster. She probably is just an alt for Marth.

Also, the Gematsu leak gets one wrong after guessing every newcomer but Rosalina, and yall ready to declare it bullshit? Hope springs eternal, I suppose.

None of the other alts have pages at all, so don't know why you'd think that.
Love this image:

 

[BeatResetsTheWorld]

Sakurai MUST know what people have been asking for. His Chrom troll was too strong to be mere coincidence

 

[phanphare]

Another round of irrelevant FE characters.

Meanwhile, Tharja is left to rot.

for a split second I thought Robin was going to be Tharja....then reality set in

 

[Boss Doggie]

Falcon's clothes are tighter than usual

 

[random25]

According to the trailer...the Cap is too OP! LOL

Nice to see him show his moves once again. Bring on the Falcon Hype!

 

[Diprosalic]

i have said it for a while: This is first and foremost a handheld game, Nintendo needs the 3DS to sell, the inclusion of handheld characters seems obvious.

 

[Protag]

HOLD UP


CHROM IS PLAYABLE???

WTF HE SAYS IN THE TRAILER "I AUPPOSE ILL GET MY CHANCE ANOTHER DAY"

AND THEN HES SHOWN BATTLING IN GAME?????


WHAT IS THIS?????

CAN SOMEONE TELL ME WHAT GOING ON

http://youtu.be/MW6TpZPYd58

LAST FEW SECONDS CHROM IS SHOWN FIGHTING, WHAT IS GOING ON, HES PLAYABLE???

 

[sixteen-bit]

Not really familiar with these characters, but they seem pretty cool.

 

[Beaniedude]

Dude, if Robin got in that means there's a chance for Batman right?

 

[Lernaean]

OMG! Sakurai delivered!
Bring it on!

 

[borghe]

Can we get Shulk standing outside the rainy WiiU window?

 

[Shredderi]

Seeing this Lucina in battle made her seem like a Marth clone... Not sure if I'm feeling that.

 

[vareon]

Shit, I wanted to replay FE Awakening now.

 

[ChitoCrisis]

Very awesome news! It's so great to see Lucina is in. Robin is a good addition as well. I'm so hyped!

That reminds me... I still have to finish Fire Emblem: Awakening.

 

[Jintor]

Lucina's box on the site wasn't marked Newcomer, I think

 

[Nzyme32]

Have to have Captain Falcon in a Smash game for it to be legit

Spoiler

F-Zero WiiU confirmed

 

[ThatStupidLion]

that's a little too much fire emblem for me. oh well

 

[eXistor]

Huh, disappointed by this tbh. I loved Awakening and liked the characters, but they still come across as fairly basic anime characters, not Nintendo characters. People seem to like this news though. I'm still wondering why we haven't seen Ness and co. yet. Probably waiting for that Mother 4 reveal (yeah right). Seriously though, they gotta have something Mother-related planned for them to not show anything yet.
