Anyone know how old the post being quoted is?

I guess one part was 07/06/14

Seriously, fuck the 3DS version so hard. I don't mind the roster at all, but cutting an entire franchise like that is such bullshit. And having Dr. Mario in and no Mewtwo is adding salt to the wound of Mewtwo fans. :/

I always said it and will keep saying it.
The 3DS version is the one to blame for holding back the Wii U one.
And now because of it, we ain't getting Ice Climbers at all

YES!, I'M SALTY AS FUCK :(
 
I'm still planning on getting the 3DS version, since portable Smash is too enticing, but you can't deny in this case the 3DS version is holding Smash 4 back.
Yup. I'm going to love gaming on the 3DS, but I can't help but think of all the stuff they could add to the Wii U version if they didn't have a 3DS limitations.
 
I would like to point out once again that the 3DS version was the original version of this game, and the Wii U version was added on later. So I don't see how it makes sense to say that the 3DS version is handicapping the Wii U when it was on the 3DS that this game got its start. It's not like Sakurai was lovingly crafting Ice Climbers on Smash for Wii U and suddenly said to himself, "hey, let's put this game on 3DS, too! Oh, IC's won't work on this system? Well, better get them off the Wii U, then!" If IC's are indeed gone, then Smash 4 as we know it would never have come out with them.

Has it been hard confirmed that ice climbers are cut? What am I missing?

I think people are assuming that because they weren't in the leak and weren't shown in this latest Direct, they're cut. Not an outrageous assumption, but it is a little premature.
 
There we go, fixed the wallpaper! So, while those question marks are quite as mysterious as they were pre-leak, it's still exciting to wait for official renders and trailers. And, at least for me, it's still crazy to see Shulk officially part of the Smash family. It truly is Shulk Time!

Oh, nice! Would love it in 1440x900 when it's done if possible :3 If not, then I understand, I can re-scale it a little myself. A version of the minimalistic one with just the smash-symbol would be cool on my Samsung Galaxy S5. I can most probably cut that one myself though.
 
Thanks.

This may be the strongest evidence we have yet that the leaked roster is final.
Well, over 40 can still be over 50.

We know 48 characters, saying over 40 tells us nothing, but if there is more than 50, they can still keep it secret by not saying over 50 :p
 
Speaking of not wanting to play with the yellow devil (is it there even in final destination mode?), do we have any reasonable guesses about how many stages have bosses?

Pyrosphere -> Ridley
Megaman stage -> Yellow Devil
Shulk stage -> Metalface
MAYBE a D.K. stage with King K. Rool, but that seems more of a long shot to me.

OH MAN! LET'S JUST ALL MAKE ORIC DO EVERYTHING FOR EVERY PLATFORM! JESUS!
Totally will try and get to it later today! :P

True, but I'm hesitant to believe that the marketing department would pass up the opportunity to promote "over 50 characters" if that was in fact true.
 
But even if the roster is final, we already have more than 50 characters. I don't think it means anything one way or the other.

Yea. I'm assuming you're talking about with the Mii Fighters. It's sort of weird to me that it seems that Mii Fighters are being ignored as legit characters. At least that's the feeling I get.

I think over 40 is just referring to the launch roster. We will likely get a few more veterans and one more newcomer as the starting cast.

That's not really what happened. Sometime during Kid Icarus's development, a 3DS version of Smash was considered. Later during KI's development, the Wii U was introduced to him. He pondered putting Smash 4 on Wii U instead of 3DS, but in the end decided to do two version . This was before pre-production even started. So no, Wii U version wasn't added later, so stop spreading this bullshit narrative. :)

Rubbish. Sakurai outright said it was 3DS only until he saw the screen was a bit small and Iwata approached him on a Wii U version. Sakurai's main reason was that he felt Smash could no longer evolve on console.

Please read up on this.
