I don't know about top tier. Did you see the lag from that side-B? Good lord.
 
Twitter just confirmed that Studio Anima, the guys who did the cut scenes for FEA did the Smash CG trailer, too.
Uh, so did Sakurai himself earlier in the day when he posted the newcomer poster for the Awakening characters.

And here's an illustration celebrating the newcomers! This was drawn by Yusuke Kozaki, the illustrator for Fire Emblem Awakening. The character reveal movie was created by anima, which also worked on the movie sequences for the original game. We've really jumped into the world of "Awakening."

Hopefully every PotD update for the rest of the week will shed light on these characters, namely what kind of limits are on Robin's tomes, and what attributes/properties make Lucina different from Marth
 
Star Fox should get Falco and Wolf back. At the very least the series will get one of the characters back. Hopefully Donkey Kong gets one more rep. As long running as DKC is, it's sad that it only has two characters.

I am pretty sure another rep of Star Fox will be there. I wouldn't even be surprised if both will come back, but 1 returning vet is pretty much a safe bet.

As for DKC, yeah I would like to have another rep. K. Rool would be nice, though Dixie has much better chance at this point.
 
Why not both!? I don't mind actually.

That's ok too! Why not both! :p 1 > 4 reps! Sakurai franchises can do it (kirby went 1 > 3 in one game!)

Hey, I'd love to have both! I just don't know if it's likely.

Well, that's embarrassing. This is what happens when I sleep & only read Japanese sources. :S
 
Gotta include racing segments in between action levels. Possibly driving levels where he needs to get to each level with enemies trying to kill him/force him off the road?

I have a feeling that was part of F-Zero GX's storymode as well lol but yes no doubt this will be in, that is if they ever make a Captain Falcon action game XD

This makes me want a sakurai-directed, platinum-developed captain falcon game. Not F-Zero, but a game starring captain falcon, doing his captain falcon things.

I've been saying since 2007 they should make a Captain Falcon brawler thats pretty much just God Hand 2.

That's my dream title from Nintendo.
 
I think it would be great if Dark Pit turned out to be a playable character, but consider this - at the end of the Mega Man reveal trailer, we see Megan Man firing his blaster at the Yellow Devil for just a few seconds before the video ended. The Yellow Devil was later revealed to be a stage boss on Mega Man's stage.

At the end of Palutena's reveal trailer, she says, "Dark Pit, you just dropped in to crash my party?"

This could suggest that Dark Pit is perhaps a stage boss on Palutena's Temple.

I hate the concept of stage bosses, though, and think it would definitely be cool if Dark Pit were playable...so I certainly hope this prediction is completely inaccurate.
 
I wonder if we are getting more stuffs from Ubisoft since Ubisoft isn't in copyright list yet.

It's an interesting situation... the s-flag/galaxian were confirmed in the Smash Direct, but the BANDAI NAMCO credit didn't get added until after Pac-Man's actual reveal. Shigesato Itoi's credit is also missing even though Mr. Saturn is confirmed, so it seems that the copyright list is for playable characters only, no exceptions.
 
It sounds like what you want is God Hand.

Yeah, just have sakurai direct it and make it star captain falcon. Add in some cool racing segments, and we're good. I love the weird star-wars-esque world that captain falcon lives in, and I think it would be a great setting for some weird beat-em-up with sakurai-level crazy plot and collectibles.
 
All of my fears were for nothing!

It's wasn't downgraded - it's even better than before!
Absolutely glorious. I kept telling people that if Snake was cut Capt. Falcon would have to make up for it by having a tightly-toned as of his own. I'm glad Sakurai feels the same!
 
I've got an interesting question for you guys. Who do you think will be among the best Smash 4 players within the first year if its life? Just for fun, I'm going to go ahead and mock up an EVO '15 top 8. Keep in mind, with a few of these players, I'm only assuming they'll get into the Smash 4 competitive scene:

1. Mew2King
2. ZeRo
3. Ally
4. ESAM
5/6. Nairo
5/6. ChuDat
7/8. Hungrybox
7/8. Ken
 
I still think we only got Shulk, a Rhythm Heaven character (I won't commit to specifically Chorus Men though), and seems Dark Pit as a low-effort clone character left.

However I don't think anyone else except Squirtle, Ivysaur, and Snake will be cut. Lucas WILL return unlike what Gematsu said recently, and I don't think they'll be DLC characters now either.

Maybe Mewtwo comes back.

Edit: Forget what I said, I can't find it now. If I do, I'll post later, didn't mean to stir anything up
 
I'm probably the only one thinking this, but I was kinda disappointed over the fact that they're overplaying his meme qualities again. Guy does do more than be a bootleg Kamen Rider.

Sucks that the Gematsu leak is up in the air. I wanted to play as someone from Rhythm Heaven.
