Thought this was pretty cool
That's not true at all. Bowser Jr. shouldn't be after Rosalina, and Jigglypuff shouldn't be between Lucario and Greninja.His placement wouldn't change, as all the groups of series sort their characters by year of introduction.

He has his own icon, assuming clone corner eventually gets scattered to be next to their respective franchises yoshi would be dividing rosalina and bowser jr from the rest of the mario cast
I barely understood the Barbara thing. The last post dismisses the first post saying that it's not different save builds as suggested, but a quick Smash Run trophy results screen, right? So instead of time-lapsing from 11 trophies to 686, the trophy count was always 686 and All-Star Mode is still not complete with the 48+Mii roster. Riiiight...?Who knows, who knows

So if there is costume DLC what do you want?
We already have:
Fierce Deity Link
Wireframe AND Pink Hoody Lil' Mac
SexistClassic Zero Suit Samus
Male Power FantasySwimsuit Shulk,
Male/Femal Robin
Alph Olimar
I'd like a Proto Man or Bass alt for Mega Man (though the FS might not work as well. Unless maybe you swap out the other Mega Mans for Zero, ZX Zero and like Protoman.exe or something?).
Yoshi may have his own series and is treated as such within Smash, but he is still a core Mario character (unlike Donkey Kong and Wario) and has been for longer than Rosalina and Bowser Jr., both relative newcomers. I don't think there's much further thought put into his placement than that. His position seems very deliberate and I doubt it will change even if the clone corner was abolished or other characters were added or anything.
It's still weird. Yoshi's been a core Mario character for 24 years, but this is the first time he's interrupted the "mushroom icon" Mario characters in a Smash Bros. game.Yoshi may have his own series and is treated as such within Smash, but he is still a core Mario character (unlike Donkey Kong and Wario) and has been for longer than Rosalina and Bowser Jr., both relative newcomers.

This is bait, right?
Are you kidding? Tell me you're kidding.
It's not supposed to be a leak. It's just a visual aid. Come on, man.
I don't think that was intended to mislead anyone, it was just to show that there are potential slots left.
Thinking about it, that leak (Ninka?) from a while back seems pretty much spot-on. Got all the hidden newcomers that we know about so far correct along with Alph being an Olimar alt. That leak also said that Snake, Ice Climbers, Lucas and Wolf were cut so it's not looking likely.
That's not true at all. Bowser Jr. shouldn't be after Rosalina, and Jigglypuff shouldn't be between Lucario and Greninja.
This + the starting roster literally has him in the same row. It's not changing.
So
How awful would it have been if the only newcomers were
Little Mac
Villager
Mii Brawler
Mii Swordfighter
Mii Gunner
Greninja
Rosalina & Luma
Wii Fit Trainer
Mega Man
Pac-Man
Chrom
Shulk
Chorus Kids
It's weird, but there really haven't been extended Mario family characters like Rosalina and Bowser Jr. in Smash before (save Dr. Mario in Melee, and the clones in that had very specific positions). He hasn't really had any reason (or place) to do so before.It's still weird. Yoshi's been a core Mario character for 24 years, but this is the first time he's interrupted the "mushroom icon" Mario characters in a Smash Bros. game.
This is true. But Bowser Jr and the Koopalings, collectively, are supposed to represent NSMB. Which is why they're last in the Mario line despite the Koopalings appearing in SMW and Bowser Jr in Sunshine.
Jigglypuff, who has now been retconned to Fairy type, represents the Jigglypuff from XY.
I meant, it's not the soundest organizational method and it's not how any of us would do it, but there is still some consistency.
Ness doesn't really work either, since Earthbound was after F-Zero. But Mother as a whole started in 1989, which places him first.
Again, all of this is arbitrary reasoning. But it does have a readable organization.
Wait, hold on. Chorus Kids isn't confirmed right? People seem extreeemely convinced. Wasn't the Chorus Kids DLC "leak" by the same guy who said Wolf? And that probably isn't happening.

RIP Ice Climbers. That's a really good .gif though.Way back miiverse updated with a pic of the day that involved the ice climbers polar bear. It was replaced with a different pic and it faded from memory. However I did make a gif for it that's just been sitting on my hard drive until now...

Higher resolution?
The top left question mark is ice climbers, duh.

Because it's not necessary to unlock everything for the footage presented to the ESRB. They aren't interested in making a comprehensive game guide, they just want to see the game in general and any parts the developers thought might be of interest to the ratings committee (Scary, violent, sexual, etc.) so they can give it an appropriate rating.I'm still of the belief that the leak we saw earlier is the final roster. If it really did originate from footage sent to the ESRB, why would they leave out content to be shown? I won't rule out the possibility of characters being added later as DLC, but this roster feels complete enough (and, frankly, still leaves enough holes like you might expect in a Smash roster) that I don't expect anything new or earth-shattering.
Sakurai being so trollish about Ridley makes me think that there's something going on with him beyond being "just" a stage boss, but I doubt he's a playable regular fighter. It probably has more to do with one of the Wii U exclusive modes, which is why there's been no mention of it at all lately.
Wait, hold on. Chorus Kids isn't confirmed right? People seem extreeemely convinced. Wasn't the Chorus Kids DLC "leak" by the same guy who said Wolf? And that probably isn't happening.
After playing around, I could only form these without "breaking rows".

The only characters the ESRB footage disproves are ones who might affect the rating, like Snakeor Ridley.
Have people so quickly forgotten the Gematsu leak?
What about the possibility of broken rows but character icons still connected, like the Melee Zelda crew

That said, Ridley's never happening. I just think there's the definite possibility of more characters.

Wait - does everyone here believe in the Gematsu thing? I thought the fact that Chrom wasn't playable and the fact that he was 100% sure the trailer that revealed Lucina/Robin would show Shulk instead pretty much showed that he was wrong.
In my opinion, it was a lucky guess with Wii Fit Trainer, and everyone else (save Chorus Kids) was totally predictable.
