He missed Rosalina too.

Oh, well I was just talking about how Chrom ended up being Robin and Lucina as a Marth clone. :P Plus how he was told that Shulk would definitely be revealed today.

Yeah, Chrom was always the one remaining newcomer who I was least looking forward to (and I can't imagine I'm the only one), especially after Ike was confirmed. This is pretty much best case scenario as far as I'm concerned!

Nope, I wasn't too excited for Chrom either. Robin ended being in, with their unique style changed up everything. I love them. I might make them as a main. :3
 
This blue haired dude is holding Lucina's sword. Can you change gender with her too?

Okay, is Chrom a character?

Really excited by Robin and Lucina. Hype RESTORED.
No, he isn't.

At least, that's very much what the trailer shows. Who even knows what's real any more.

What we saw was Chrom being used only for a final Smash. He isn't added to the Smashbros.com site as a character.

With the double twist tease he got though, I guess there's always the minute possibility that it's some kind of trick. But I would seriously not count on it. He's only part of Robin's ultra. Nothing more.

Picking Marth is probably the closest you can get.
 
Wow, looks like everyone has the opposite reaction to me. I think if the leaker is semi-accurate but confused or whatever then it's the Chorus Kids who are safe, since they're distinctive. I think Shulk is the one who comes out of today less likely just cus he does resemble Robin; and I could see the leaker, if he got mixed up with Chrom, being confused about that too.

Hoping I'm wrong though.
The problem with that theory is that the leaker told Sal after Lucina & Robin were revealed that Shulk is still coming 100%. He's confident about Shulk it would seem.

As for the Chorus Kids, I definitely think they're coming. Rhythm Heaven is a series with 3 games under its belt and the DS version was very popular. They're the face of that game and they represent the concept of rhythm better than any other characters would.
Also, sneaky spirit in Smash Run.
 
From what I remember the... uh.. electric sword (forgot the name) was good but it breaks easily (?) someone can correct me on that

Levin Sword, its claim to fame is that it attacks using your magic stat, not your strength. Plus it can attack at range. Sword for mages. I'm guessing that when Robin is reduced to using his Bronze sword, it's because the Levin Sword has broken.

Unless he uses Bronze for melee, Levin for ranged attacks. I gotta rewatch that trailer.
 
Man, she's just a clone. That's fine. If that's the bone we need to throw for a decent female FE rep, I'm willing to go there. We got the real news with Robin, anyways.
 
An alt? Why does she have a new character profile?

I don't get it.
We're all confused there.

We haven't seen her whole moveset. We've seen probably four or five of her moves so far, and they look like Marth's.

She could be counted as a different character just because... well, she isn't the same person. Or she could have different properties to her attacks, like a Melee 'clone'. We'll probably find out through Sakurai in the next week or two.
 
Her moves are exactly the same as Marth's, it seems. We're not sure what her situation is.

It's okay to say "I'm not sure," you don't have to throw "we" in there. "We" are all quite certain that she's her own character that borrows heavily from Marth's moveset, like Roy.
 
I think the tomes depend on the B and Nosferatu is a grab

Yoshi's his own franchise as far as Smash is concerned and shouldn't be in the middle of Mario.

You're right, I fixed that


I also re-arranged the bottom row to include all the dead franchises
I'm sorry

Some are extremely debatable, for sure, and I could make another one w/ only humanoid characters as well, but this was just for fun.

Kirby melee trophy:

Yoshi Smash 64 description:

And pokemon, like we mentioned in the past few pages, pikachu is definitely male and the rest have masculine sounding voices.

True. I just feel that comparing humanoid males and females is fairer as very few are going to think of Pikachu or Yoshi or Kirby as a guy

I forgot about that. In that case then, this is a great day.
 
How often did you ever hit that thing?

Catch type supers in smash are bad. I'd rather be able to drive the car around the stage like the landmaster.

Or have a giant fucking falcon punch

I hit with it most of the time. I find it much more easier to pull off compared to Link's or Metaknight's final smash

But before we ever knew his final smash, I imagined the blue falcon zipping in and out of the stage, kinda like Latios/Latias

If she's a clone added for time concerns... fine I guess.

But if it was a deliberate choice, Lyn or Anna would have been much better picks imo.
 
Again, I'm just going to throw this out there: Diddy and Dixie Kong were supposed to be a tag team in Brawl. Ultimately Dixie was dropped, and we got Diddy. It's possible the same thing happened with Chrom and Robin, and Sakurai decided to focus exclusively on Robin and keep Chrom relegated to a special attack. We really have no idea. I'm just throwing thoughts out there.

Not sure what is up with Lucina. Four FE characters seem odd.

Link to this?
 
what features?
A picture, constant newcomer section on the site, her own intro trailer, a unique moveset, etc.

I'm sorry, I should have clarified. All of us who aren't time travelers with finished copies of the game aren't sure.

who is we? you keep saying we, it's just you, nobody else believes something this silly

You'd think people would have learned their lesson. A day ago Robin would never be playable because nobody would ever believe something that silly.
 
I just wonder how the music will be handled. Do we know how much is owned by Nintendo vs Tsunku.

The majority of the rights seem to be held by Nintendo, though Tsunku holds a fair deal too. It doesn't seem to be split as cleanly as "ones with vocals are owned by Tsunku" or anything like that, but if you feel like navigating a Japanese music copyright database to look for specific songs you can try doing that.
 
We've hardly seen enough of Lucina's moveset to go around calling her a Marth clone like it's an absolute fact. It might very well turn out to be true, but at this stage, such judgments are premature. We should wait for more information to (hopefully) be given in the PotD.
 
If she's a clone added for time concerns... fine I guess.

But if it was a deliberate choice, Lyn or Anna would have been much better picks imo.
I don't disagree! But gotta be realistic. Four FE reps is way more than most people thought was realistic, Lucina's just kinda the frosting on the Robin cake.
