Dark Samus!
Going off the leak, we already know Olimar's unrevealed alts are all Alph, and Bowser Jr.'s are all Koopalings.
Tough to imagine what alts Duck Hunt Dog and Dark Pit will have, though.

 

[OricWindstar]

Wait...is this legit?

Yup! Right from Miiverse.

 

[SenorArdilla]

Leak said that everyone has 8 alts. Sakurai says that everyone has 8 alts.

 

[random25]

Yup! Right from Miiverse.

Oh...I'm just confused because there's also 2 pics for Samus alts...thanks!

So 8 alts for each character including palette swaps...am I right?

 

[Pikma]

Interesting that this lines up perfectly with the leak that told us we would be getting eight alts per character. Guess that confirms the Koopalings after all!

fuck that, I don't want to lose my avatar bet

 

[MrSaturn99]

Just hopped onto Miiverse to see the POTD and literally the first comment I see is "is this gonna be for all the characters"

Interesting that this lines up perfectly with the leak that told us we would be getting eight alts per character. Guess that confirms the Koopalings after all!

Hey yeah, that's right!

Anyone got that particular text leak on them? I wanna look at it again.

 

[Golnei]

They were already palette swaps. Why not use them instead of those repulsive green and pink things?

 

[OricWindstar]

Leak said that everyone has 8 alts. Sakurai says that everyone has 8 alts.

Bowser Jr. + Koopalings = 8!

 

[Regulus Tera]

neorice has work to do

 

[GiantBreadbug]

Leak said that everyone has 8 alts. Sakurai says that everyone has 8 alts.

Every PotD this week will corroborate a leak thing

Then Friday he'll show something the leaker didn't mention and we'll all die

 

[Dimitri LH]

I actually like purple shirt Villager. Anyways, Goodnight SmashGAF! good update.

 

[rekameohs]

16 Pit recolors will be interesting to see...

 

[Loco4Coco]

Is that Ness' shirt?

 

[Thoraxes]

"You can choose between four male and four female Villagers to play with. The designs for their faces and clothes are different. And here are the four Villagers we haven't shown you yet."

WHERE'S THE FLAME SHIRT?

 

[OricWindstar]

Oh...I'm just confused because there's also 2 pics for Samus alts...thanks!

So 8 alts for each character including palette swaps...am I right?

Seems that way. I imagine, like villager, Robin and Wii Fit Trainer will have four for each gender.

 

[Immaculate]

Ice climbers really are cut then

 

[The Great Gonzales]

When you're using the Dark Samus palette, Alfonzo comes out of the AT.

Also, sleepy, blue tie-dye Villager is clearly the best of the bunch.

 

[GiantBreadbug]

Also wtf at those Female Villager hairstyles. Is that a popular/default hairstyle for the female Villagers?

 

[Cody_D165]

So does this mean Pit gets 16 palette swaps?

 

[Crocodile]

I'm impressed to be frank. All these alts and colors could have been easy DLC money but instead they are giving it to us for free

Looking at Villager, I wonder if something similar will happen to Robin who has different choose-able body types in FE:A?

Also, can someone repost the leak that mentioned 8 colors/alts? Is there any new info to be gleamed from?

 

[Pappasman]

I want a regular pit alt for dark pit and a dark pit alt for regular pit.

 

[Benzychenz]

That purple shirt Villager is the one I'll play with.

 

[Kyzon]

Is that Ness' shirt?

His Dress, yes

 

[JB-the-Hunter]

Do the 8 colors include alts?

Pretty sure. Little Mac is up to 8 including his wireframe and pink jumpsuit.

 

[OricWindstar]

I still like the standard Villager the best, but 4 Shirt Villager will definitely get some use on my end.

 

[?oe?oe]

Pit will have a Dark Pit alt and Dark Pit will have a Pit alt.

 

[Toxi]

They were already palette swaps. Why not use them instead of those repulsive green and pink things?

It's tradition or something.

I'm just glad that we got two new amazing colors both based on actual Metroid series elements.

And the stoned villagers are adorbs.

 

[BGBW]

AWWWWWWWW....


I was hoping Villager would get the ¬‿¬ face

 

[Barrow Roll]

Holy moly, 8 alts! Sakurai had a field day with Dark Pit, I bet!

For new page:

"Pic of the day. Until now, you were only able to choose from four, or sometimes five or six colors for each character. This time, though, all characters have eight colors to choose from! The first four color schemes for Samus are based off her Varia Suit, Fusion Suit, Gravity Suit from Super Metroid, and the Dark Suit.

Say what? I always thought the pink suit was based on the NES Varia suit sprite.

 

[SenorArdilla]

Ice climbers really are cut then

Ivysaur and Squirtle still in? Or are they all assumed to be cut as well?

 

[The Great Gonzales]

It's too bad that you can't import your own Villager from your New Leaf file into Smash. I guess Miis corner the market on appearance customization, which is a shame. I look too good in NL to not be in Smash.

 

[Anth0ny]

8 alt colors for every character? Awesome.

 

[Rychu Supadude]

Finally, a Villager outfit that I can actually use! Gonna rock that purple cue-ball all the way to town and back!

 

[random25]

Emo Villager is the best Villager.

 

[Benzychenz]

I guess Olimar's name changing to "Pikmin and Olimar" makes sense now if it's actually "Pikmin and Alph" for half the costumes.

Curious if Alph and Koopalings will actually change the characters name.

 

[J@hranimo]

Yesssss look at all those slick Samus alts!

And the Villager on the far left has the greatest derp face ever. I could laugh at that all night.

 

[Cody_D165]

Ice climbers really are cut then

well holy shit

Bring on Alph and the Koopalings.

 

[QuixoticNeutral]

Yet another reason to lament the exclusion of Wonder-Red/Blue/Green/Pink/Yellow/White/Black/Director.

 

[Megalosaro]

What the hell are they gonna do with Dark Pit, anyway? You take away his colors and he is just regular pit.

 

[Masked Man]

Ice climbers really are cut then

More concerned about the lack of Lucas, but I guess it will be cool to have Iggy.

 

[Porsche9146]

Count me in for 4 shirt Villager. Also, the inevitable normal pit alt dark pit. Just to mess with people.

 

[MrSaturn99]

BRING TO ME THE KOOPALINGS AND ALPH

now give me that sweet music sakurai...................

 

[Zomba13]

Ok. Dark Samus alt colour eases the pain of Dark Samus not being a character and just being an AT. Looks so Sweet!

 

[rekameohs]

Say what? I always thought the pink suit was based on the NES Varia suit sprite.

Yeah I don't know what Sakurai's smoking with that one. The only pink suit in Metroid is the NES Varia Suit, Super's Gravity is clearly purple, just not as deep a purple as Prime's.

 

[Blizzard]

Ice climbers really are cut then

Yeah, that seems 100% accurate so far to me. RIP cut fighters, but still looking forward to Duck Hunt dog.

 

[GiantBreadbug]

Alph had better have Rock Pikmin instead of Purple Pikmin.

They could just reskin them so the whole "no changing attributes between alts" thing is in tact.

 

[Regulus Tera]

Can't wait for Sakurai to confirm Punk Robin.

 

[Beren the Empty-Handed]

This got me to thinking. What doesn't Shulk feel? Does he feel in the same way as others? What if he has some sort of super-sensory ability, and he always HAS to feel it. But what would it mean when he REALLY feels it? Maybe he can only really feel it once in a while or something, and that's why he gets excited. If he always feels it all of the time, then after a while feeling it wouldn't be remarkable. After a while he'd have to really feel it to feel anything different. Is it possible he could regret having to always feel it? Could he wish that he would not feel it once in a while, even if it meant that never again would he REALLY feel it? Or would that be more or less the same thing to him?

Spoiler

Please send help.

 

[Golnei]

What the hell are they gonna do with Dark Pit, anyway? You take away his colors and he is just regular pit.

He gets Pit's alt colours, just with lower brightness and saturation. Alternatively, the Dark Fighter armour might make an appearance.

 

[Speedwagon]

Now with that Light Suit I might actually use Samus.
