If competitive community loved the heck out of the changed movesets from Project M, I'm sure the community can find a way to make an acceptable decision regarding the use of custom movesets. It will just help the game get a more balanced approach IMO.

Yeah, I've felt that custom moves are a great way to nerf/buff fighters as needed once the metagame develops. It seems like a great tool for the competitive scene so I don't understand the lukewarm reaction thus far amongst much of that crowd.
It's a separate menu, but no reason it can't also be easily accessible on CSS ALSO. Who knows.
Not even talking about competitive. Even casual players have their item/no item preference. The same will be true for custom/no custom. Considering how cool megaman's are, I'm leaning more toward custom moves than I was before.
...aren't both For Fun and For Glory part of With Anyone?
For Glory is one of the With Anyone modes, so it means the exact opposite.
If there's going to be any divide between customisation and no customisation, it's going to be due to set up times, custom moves should be allowed as a concept whether certain people like it or not.
I don't care if we have to go to 2 stock matches instead of 3 to make up lost time, they're going in. They're the one thing that makes me hopeful the new smash could be as interesting as melee for as long as melee, if they don't become a part of competitive standard, I'm just going back to PM.

I'm pretty sure Mega Man launches the Gravity Bomb from Mega Man 9 for his Final Smash.

I hadn't seen the "#1 character game in the world" comment though. That seems a bit mysterious, no? I suppose in some ways it already is...but is he hinting at something?
He said it at the roundtable. He was just referring to the fact that he now has a ton of gaming's most iconic mascots in one game, particularly Mario, Pac-Man, and Megaman.
I think all he needs left are halo, minecraft, goku, and naruto, and he's set.
I thought we can't use Miis in With Anyone? I was a bit curious to see how Palutena works, I know people are not happy with her default moveset.
I also had this conversation today with my gal pal:
Her: Is Rockman's brother in this game?
Me: You mean Proto Man?
Her: No, Red Rockman.
I'd avatar quote you if I were not using mobile.
Well it's an option that is not imposed forcefully to anyone, so I don't think it will be a problem, especially for guys that play Smash just because they like to play Smash.

There is the Fire Emblem XL and Europe got a Red and White 2DS instead of our red and black oneNope. Still means there's hope that ours looks better
it'll still look the same
Off the top of my head, I can't think of any EU exclusive 3DS models.
And how many NA exclusives are there, compared to PAL? I know the OG Fire Emblem 3DS.
How can one half of an image be so right and the other half so wrong?

This has never been actually confirmed, though, right? It does look like the Black Hole Bomb, but I'm not sure if it actually is that.
mm, nope. everything looks to be in order here
There's no confirmation, but it's way too similar to just be coincidence especially given everything else about the character.

It looks exactly like it.
More like I'm worried that everyone else will get a better design.

So realistically, what do you think Mewtwo's chances are for returning?
I'm kind of torn on it. I think he's an awesome character and deserves to be in Smash. He's still relevant in Pokemon, he has a unique move set and he was cheated out of a spot in Brawl. He's the closest thing the Pokemon series will have to a playable villain, and he's consistently been one of the most powerful legendaries in the game, every generation. He's also the only legendary Pokemon with a mega evolution (at least in x and y).
On the other hand, Pokemon has a lot of characters in smash bros already. Mewtwo wasn't that strong of a character in Melee and was generally not popular in that game. He's also a first generation Pokemon, and adding him makes the game very first generation heavy.
Is he still wanted enough to be brought back? Was he even on the table for consideration for the new smash? Would the Pokemon Company request or allow his appearance? Would he get a new comer trailer, or just be treated like any other veteran, despite his one game absence?

Creepygaf is always here. Everyone else just leaves during the weekend.
For something as high profile as smash I'm doubting it would be exclusive. At most the NA or Japan special editions would have a different design.
Yup, not gonna buy a new 3ds when I still need a Wii U, but will be picking up the Lucina, Rosalina, Pikachu, and Samus amiibos for sure.

I think she'll get in this time, especially as she had a movie recently.

I thought mewtwo was male?

That would be really cool if so. It shouldn't surprise me given that it's Sakurai, but I figured after Mega Man's initial reveal trailer that they were only pulling moves from the first eight main games. I hope his custom specials include at least one (more) weapon from 9 or 10!

Mewtwo is either genderless or of unknown gender.
Masked Man
I said wow
Looks like they just tacked on the 3DS advertisement to the end of the Japanese game commercial, lol.

Huh. Didn't realise the UK Nintendo store was doing a tshirt+ sweatband with the game for £40. Might be worth it.
Mewtwo is genderless/unknown gender, but he was referring to the Mewtwo in the recent movie which features a Mewtwo with a female voice actress.

Melee was sad.
I think that's new. It was there when I checked the site only a few days ago.
Funny they have a standalone listing for the same price. Why would you choose that?

Technically he was there.
He was also in 64 (technically).
But him being playable is a step up from plain smiling to Nirvana levels of happiness

Melee didn't have Diddy, Wario and Dedede as well.
It would have been depressing, but thankfully Doctor Mario balanced it out.
Honestly, Jigglypuff may be one of the first 12, but as a Pokémon her popularity died as soon the anime stopped covering the first gen, while Charizard and Mewtwo had a special place in the hearts of all veteran players, even more now thanks to feature films and the Mega Evolutions. Jigglypuff feels like a joke long overdue that stopped being funny in Brawl, while Mewtwo still feels fresh and revelevant in the series.
As always, after playing devil's advocate I'll feel bad when all characters are revealed and all of them are back safely.
Jigglypuff's inclusion is worth it for Rest alone. Mewtwo's moveset is much less interesting.

As much as I'd like to see Mewtwo return, I'm gonna have to agree with that.
True.

As in "Heathcliff"
I'm all for Jigg being back!

Why not both returning?
Heath, you can have exactly one more character in Smash Bros., in addition to those we know for Smash4 so far. Who do you pick?

Yeah. I love Jigglypuff's playstyle so much, but find Mewtwo so awful to play as. Not even Project M redeemed his moveset for me.
