3ds link looks amazing still

Hope we get melee black alt back, was my favorite
 
Sakurai is so shook from the leaks that he could only post a Smash Run pic.

FAN ART TO SOOTHE US

If only ZSS had that kind of physique in the game. SSB4's a step up from Other M's noodle body, but she should look more athletic.

...I'll also be sorely disappointed if there's no fanart of nun Samus with Bayonetta by tomorrow.
 
And Uprising was just the sequel to the SSBM credits.

Thus making smash apart of canon of every nintendo series.
There is a channel where a dude uploaded all the subspace emissary cutscenes, and in the comments a guy actually included brawl into metal solid canon
 
I really do like Smash Run, but I tend to start disliking things that are continually shoved down my throat. Don't make me dislike Smash Run Sakurai. Spread the love.
 
Isn't it obvious, guys? Link thought he found a treasure (leak) but it turned out to be a fake that kicked his illusions right in the ass.
 
Maybe it's because it's 2am or maybe I'm just desperate for pre-release leaks, but I got a funny feeling about those pics.

DLC characters (free or 1.99/ 3.99 in packs) sounds like it would be cool too.
 
That's really stretching it. Wart's role in Link's Awakening is a small cameo, whereas DK, Wario, and Yoshi are recurrent fixtures in Mario games.

Oh I know that's stretching it. I'm just saying it's easier to discuss it in terms of franchises or series, as it establishes both the recognition that DK, Wario and Yoshi frequently appear in the Mario series as well as the possibility that they're a part of that same series, and firmly recognizing that something like Metroid isn't. Using the term "universe" potentially clouds the issue (that Star Fox/F-Zero talk still happens), and a consistent use of terms erases it. That was the only point I was trying to make.
 
Is it disrespectful if Nintendo themselves considers those characters to be in the same umbrella as the Mario series?

The keyword here is 'universe'. Sure, they play differently, but that is the case for some franchises that share the same universe as others. Manhunt and GTA evolved into two totally separate beasts, but do in fact share the same fictional universe. And like those, Nintendo was able to branch off some of those lines of games with different focuses, even if some of them bleed together like NSMB2's focus on coin collection being more of a Wario-themed game than a Mario-themed game.
To be totally honest, I imagine part of the reasoning for giving Yoshi, DK, and Wario separate icons is to make it seem like there are less Mario characters than there are. Even so, I think at least DK and Wario games have done enough different in their games to be treated as proper separate franchises, even if they all fall under the Mario umbrella. Like, it would be weird to me if Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong had a Mario icon because their roles in full fledged Donkey Kong games stand out to me far more than their sideline Mario appeaeances (especially Diddy Kong, if he was repping Mario games then he'd be a pretty terrible representation for them). Wario too. Yoshi, however, would probably be fine with a Mario icon. He's still very much a character you see in mainline Mario titles alongside his standalone games (featuring Mario characters).

I'm sorry if this post doesn't seem too well written or thought out. I'm kinda tired. :p

Red Link. It irked me so much when I saw people playing Smash Run and not grabbing all the treasure.

Don't forget these three:

Just saw it at 4chan. I'm not sure if it came from same leaker or not.

And here we see 4 murky blobs claiming to be Shulk, Ganondorf, Charizard, and Lucina.
That last image rubs me the wrong way, though. Shulk punching? And even if it's actually a grab (which could make sense), the Monado's upside-down (Shulk normally has the hilt by his head when he's not wielding it, a la how Link stores the Master Sword), which just looks silly - and I can't imagine he'd just drop the sword for his grab quite like that.

The Monado doesn't hurt people though. Maybe took that into consideration when he gave him his moveset. Could still be total BS though.
Actually, (midgame spoiler, circa Prison Island)
after Zanza unlocks it to Monado II, it can totally hurt people - it's how Shulk gains the ability to hurt Faced Mechon, literally Mechon with Homs inside of them
.

Plus (final boss spoiler)
if he had the Monado III, the "True Monado", then even gods like Palutena would be fair game
