Bio
Pit is the protagonist of the Kid Icarus series. He is Palutena's most loyal servant, as well as the captain of her royal bodyguards. Pit is goodhearted, selfless, and heroic. He is generally very upbeat no matter what the situation (although he can be genuinely serious when needed), which certain characters, including both foe and ally, can find to be a nuisance. Pit frequently banters and makes outrageous puns, often breaking the fourth wall while doing so. Pit also deeply cares about the human race and is willing to do anything to keep them safe. His loyalty to Palutena is matched by no other, and he always addresses her as "Lady Palutena". Pit even states the main reason he fights in the first place is because of her.

What NeoGAF Says
“The Undisputed ruler of the skies, at least as far as recovery, is fitting of the angelic sky warrior. I always loved how he excelled at, if not dominated, two areas of play, in the form of recovery / flight and longe - range projectiles, also befitting of a primary archer.” - Praesidium

“A legend 25+ years in the making. Quick attacks with his bow along with his Arrows of Light make Pit a solid character.” - SenorArdilla

“Excellent design, and his games are real fun.” - ivanthebearable

“He's the Comeback Kid. He brought a lot of fun toys with himself (Arrow of Light is the best projectile ever)” - Azure J

“A combination of my love for Kid Icarus, archery, and aerial based characters.” - Kouichi

“Lots of intresting attacks and really like the design.” - Sorastitch

“Kid Icarus Uprising greatness.” - Speedwagon

“CHILDHOOD FAVORITE GAME!” - Intelliheath

“He's so cute I wanna kiss him.” - kelpplankton

Up close and personal isn't what I'd describe Snake's playstyle. He's a really defensive and camping character that has so much ground control. A character that messes up your spacing and put you in a spot where he wants you to be.

Up close and personal is exactly how I'd describe Snake's playstyle. He's incredibly versatile and can camp like crazy but when I played competitive vanilla Brawl I learned there's quite a few tricks that make him into a close range MONSTER. Moreso than literally every single other character sans Meta Knight.

It's all about his tilts and aerials. You can really fuck an opponent up by restricting his or her movement options via explosives and forcing them in on you as opposed to away from you in a turtly fashion. Neutral air is like a fucking vaccuum and does tons of damage, back air is an amazing spacing option that has a surprisingly hefty hitbox, up air comes out quick... and his tilts are crazy. his knee that you can lock enemies into for multiple hits, his fucking uptilt which could kill a fucking planet at 40%, and his dtilt which has surprising quickness, range, and priority.

He's just plain amazing
 
Project M did a great work turning Sonic into a great and fun character to play, truly fast how he should be, and they made Pit better as well.

Snake, I already liked him, but they gave him the sleeping gun... SO FUN.
 
Snake has amazing utility smashes, fantastic ground movement (including a technique that's basically exclusive to him), tilts that hit like smash attacks, a super good (yet predictable) recovery and killing power out the ass. His aerials aren't all that great outside back air and up air, but all can kill and have uses. His hitboxes are stupid, but his whole character is designed to be strong and have an answer to basically anything.

The lack of a second grenade though is the only thing that's a bit lame.
Everyone I have talked to just doesn't see the point.
 
Ah, Pit! Some of us called it. Didn't know about his character until this game.

Who knew Sakurai would bring Kid Icarus back on 3DS and make it so damn awesome?
 
Pit's definitely getting more playtime after Uprising. It looks like his KO power has been buffed since Brawl, which is great. My only wish is for him to comment on floor ice cream again. Maybe he can take Snake's codec role with the Uprising cast. Anything for more Hades and Viridi!

I fully expect this to be a thing at LEAST on the Kid Icarus stages. It would be a huge missed opportunity if Sakurai didn't do this.
 
I may complain about "Uprising bias" on Smash 4, but it's still one of my favorite games ever and I desperately wish for Nintendo to continue the franchise in some way. Which seems to me like they won't for some reason. I'm half hoping the rumored Wii U 2015 Remaster is Uprising HD with new Gamepad, Pro, and Wiimote Controls, and multiplayer refinements and additions like voice chat, match stats on the bottom screen, COMMUNITY/ROOMS PLEASE, maybe a ranking system as well?

Oh and Amazon Pandora > your fave. Sorry, but none can compare to her perfection.
 
Kid Icarus Uprising is like one of the best games I've ever played so I got a lot of love and respect for the characters and franchise. Never did play as Pit much though.

I hope Wario is in the top 10 :)

MaverickHunterAsh mentioned he was gonna be at PAX and at the closed event.

...I always wondered if Sickr (the main dude from MyNintendoNews) was a member on here cause he actually covers a lot of stuff from GAF lol.

I feel like it, most of his stories are posted an hour after it's posted on GAF with it being copied-pasted from the GAF post

That explains all the loving KI quotes hah, which is good. Seeing Nintendo revive old characters is always a great thing. And Phosphera says other wise. (i still haven't played the game v_v don't judge me)
