You know what? You win.

We're having a conversation, not a match. Calm down.

Mario and Luigi now share the same space and you can pick which of the two you want.

They don't have the same armature since they don't have the same proportions.

Pichu is back! You can select Pichu via Pikachu's character space.

They don't have the same armature since they don't have the same proportions.

They don't have the same armature since they don't have the same proportions.
Fox and Falco now share the same space.

I wouldn't mind that, I honestly think Starfox was overrepresented in Brawl and not in a creative way.

Marth and Lucina now share the same space.
I honestly think they do.

Captain Falcon and Ganondorf now share the same space.

Maybe Ganondorf is the one behind Falcon's helmet!


Link and Toon Link now share the same space.

They don't have the same armature since they don't have the same proportions.
 
Lucina, ZSS, Palutena, FeRobin... I can't even hold all those waifus.

I'm happy to finally see such a wide variety of playable females in Smash Bros. There's also the female villager and female Mii.
 
So, if we're getting two more reveal trailers (let's just say Shulk and Chorus Kids for old times sake) I hope we get the last two of the original twelve revealed. Ness in the Shulk trailer and Jigglypuff in the Chorus Kids (which, c'mon, that would be too perfect).

No, they can, they just don't appear in cutscenes and don't have the side conversations other characters get (which, to me, is a really big part of the game).

I still think Shulk and Chorus Kids will be on the money. Chrom was wrong, but it wasn't like Chrom was wrong in favor of Rayman or something. Chrom was wrong in favor of another Fire Emblem character, it's still pretty dang close. The little joke from Chrom himself may have been playing at both the leak and his previous consideration as a fighter.
 
So, I left for school immediately after the reveal. Any word from Sal Romano?
He was wrong about Chrom, and wrong about Shulk today. However, let's not forget he's been right on everyone else so far, and that
-There is a Rhythym Heaven enemy in Smash Run
-The Xenoblade devs have retweeted most Smash news, and Shulk's VA has talked about a project.
So it seems those two still might be right. So, I think something up. He's been a little to close to being right on everything to just be a troll.

Regardless, this has highly, highly restored my Smash hype.

Yeah, impressive roster. Too bad we don't have PKMN Trainer anymore. :(

PKMN trainer would have certainly had a female alt if he was in.
 
I'm pretty sure Lucina had a move where she threw out multiple stabs, like a faster Link jab in Project M. Marth has nothing compared to that right now

Marth always had that multiple stab option in his dancing blades (forward-b) special.

Oh gotcha. Is there any replay value once you finish the game?
 
Ladies and gentlemen, this is a rare post that will probably never be done again.

You're probably the first and last person who ever asked that lol.

Except it wasn't appropriate, because I had already responded to his post lol

Sal reached out to the leaker, and is waiting for the word back. He still believes in the other two characters for the same reasons you do.

Sal Romano is not the leaker. He is just sharing the emails he gets from the leaker.
 
Lucina being a higher tier than Marth will freeze my emblem.

I for one salute the impressive amount of man hours (heh) Nintendo put in to make so many playable female characters.

On a different note, next stop more rough and tumble Street Fighter 3 Makoto types and female villains please. We're at our quota of nobility and dainty/classy types. :P

As I'm sure most of ya know, the leaker e-mailed me last night teasing Shulk.

He also e-mailed me again this morning saying Nintendo keeps a lot secret from Bandai Namco, and that Sakurai may change his mind as he does all the time, but that Shulk was 100%.

A quote: "I only know what has been done, not what or when they will be made available. Sakurai may change his mind, and he does all the time. Shulk will not be changed."

I've e-mailed him about the lack of Shulk, as well as the whole Chrom being a Final Smash thing. I'll update if I get a response.

Still finding it hard to believe. 8 for 11 is no easy task. I wonder what he has to say.

Did you make another one? You never responded to my last one.


I can see her moves with my own eyes. We can't see the select screen. It's ridiculous to say that there's no way she's an alt costume, especially when there's plenty of reason to think so. It could go either way.

okay there is one primary difference i would like to point out between the artwork that you mentioned in robin's artwork lucina takes straight center (she takes just as much space as robin does in the artwork while chrom plays a backrole)

you mentioned dark pit and i presume you are basing it on the palutena art work the difference is while he is in the picture his presence is very small (only taking a small corner of the screen) while link pit and palutena takes front and center

now as some people have said we dont really know much about lucina but i personally believe she is just sharing the same artwork with robin (since this is mostly a fire emblem reveal it does make a lot of sense to me )

And I can see the website with my own eyes where it says she's a newcomer, and the trailer where she gets a splash screen. I can also see where all of the other gender model swaps don't have their own reveals.

Also, you can't see all of her moves from the brief footage, and you can't know that they have the exact same properties as Marth's.

A reasonable assumption in my view would be that, given the fanfare, she is indeed a newcomer clone and not some costume that has broken the status-quo so far that model swaps occur on customizable characters.
 
The fact that NOTHING more was said about Rayman is driving me CRAZY

It is like he was some kind of collective hallucination
 
I think people are overthinking the splash screen a little bit.

Lucina is confirmed right out of the gate, ten seconds into the trailer during a Fire Emblem cinematic, and the trailer ends with Chrom deconfirming himself.

Also, let's not forget that Palutena troll during the Smash Direct, which probably would not have happened if it weren't for everyone expecting her thanks to the leak.

Bottom line is, Sakurai knows. The splash screen text was probably his way to poke some harmless fun at people's expectations and everyone who took the leak as gospel. I can only speak for myself here, but I know for a fact that when Lucina showed up, I was just as confused as the text made it seem like.

(Wait a second, now I'm overthinking it).
 
Still pretty sure Shulk is in, dunno about Chorus Men it could be Marshall, the fact we got a RH enemy makes it seem pretty strong that someone from that franchise will be playable
 

Hmm. Interesting. Perhaps he saw the Chrom model and thought that he was in for sure? Regardless, 8 for 11 (likely 10 for 11) really is no easy task.

I think it'd be great to get PKMN Trainer as an actual fighter, instead of a vehicle for additional Pokemon. He could use different Pokemon as his B-Moves.

N's the only Pokemon character I'd want as an actual fighter, and only if he was riding on Zekrom/Reshiram the whole time.
 
Are there any side by side comparisons of Lucina's nair, uair, side b, and up b with Marth's? We saw those from her in the trailer, and from my approximation they looked pretty much the same. I haven't played enough Smash 4 to feel sure of it though. I know we have footage of all the demo characters doing everything, so Marth stuff should be easily findable.

Oh definitely, it could go either way. It's just weird to me that the first newcomer we've seen that isn't a "real" new character was also revealed alongside an actual newcomer, was lumped into that artwork, and doesn't follow the normal rules of being a newcomer. We'll just have to wait and see, there's no way to tell either way.

Didn't Yoshi, Shiek and Zero Samus had as well?
Don't forget Charizard!
