Super Smash Bros. for 3DS & Wii U Thread XV: Kübler-Ross Edition

Didn't Mewtwo get a sizable makeover in the X/Y gen what with the Mega Evolutions and the female persona?

But then since Lucario has Mega Evolutions, wouldn't that mean he would be with the X/Y group? And Mega Charizard?

...Yeah, I'm done with this, I'm beginning to confuse myself with my own semantics. :P

Mewtwo's primary form changed about as much as Charizard though (which is to say not very much at all). The female voice was exclusive to the movie and was a different Mewtwo than the one that originally appeared in the anime, not necessarily a retcon or anything.
 
Wasn't that motherfucking leaker's fake leak, which was proven fake.
He posted this immediately after the ESRB leak but a week before MFL went on /v/ again and threw in Dixie/Impa/Ridley/Mewtwo. Pretty sure nobody knew who MFL was on Smashboards at that point either.

EDIT: Yeah, what Sponge said. That image I was responding to doesn't seem to acknowledge MFL just pulled what NeoZeo had said a week earlier and threw it on /v/.
 
It really feels so strange to go from Brawl's "90% of our original Mother representation is based off Lucas' game" to the blonde kid being a no-show this time around.
 
If there are indeed five extra slots on the CSS, one of them will be the Mii Fighters.

I think Wolf is cut, given Fox's alt colour. I feel the same way about Dixie, and I'm also leaning towards Lucas being gone as well. That leaves:

1. Ice Climbers
2. Mewtwo
3. Ridley
4. Chorus Kids

as the most likely four additional characters imo.
I think Impa is the most likely 5th based on the four trophies hypothesis.
 
If Yoshi and Jr were swapped, it would make more sense

this whole CSS is just really confusing and almost seems sloppily put together.

Well the thing is, every franchise before Fox fits perfectly. If you add anyone, it breaks everything. Adding two between Star Fox and Pokémon completes everything perfectly.

I do hope that mystery 3DS stage really is Mother 1 Magicant, and that Mother 1 gets some representation this time around.
Ninten alt for Ness, please and thank you.

Exactly, which means one of two things (in my mind). Star Fox has 1 more unrevealed character (likely Wolf) and Pokemon has 1 more as well (likely Mewtwo). OR Pokemon has two more. I'm definitely leaning towards it being one for both though. I don't think Fox's wolf color is a solid indication that he isn't in the game.

IF there is another character from a franchise before the row starting with Fox (such as Dixie) then they are going to be a clone and grouped in the clone corner.

That still doesn't line up Yoshi correctly, but yea, adding another Star Fox rep and another Pokemon makes everything a little better, although 2 more in addition to that in the single series row squares the roster off even more.

So basically Slippy and Pichu are more or less confirmed at this point.
 
Pikachu jumped in Melee.

The fact that Yoshi's sitting in the middle of the other Mario mainstays kind of means past roster design is irrelevant in this case anyway.

Didn't know about Pikachu.

Do you or perhaps anyone else know exactly at what point he moves? (Unlocking everything? Unlocking Pichu? Something else?)

They're just grouping Yoshi as part of the Mario franchise even though he's a spin-off and has his own icon. It's not that confusing.
 
I'm going to make a prediction that zelda/shiek is going to be in Oric's top 3 vet list... that's right, I'm skipping the unknown number 4 and going straight to the top 3 :P

I'm kinda torn on my newcomer vote now... I suspect I'm the only one who voted for them and if I'd voted for Ashley or Lip instead maybe they could've got into the top 5... why did you make us have to choose only 1 oric? whyyyy? @.@

Seeing as this is the last week before the japan leaksplosion, anyone willing to guess all 5 of this week's screenshots?

MONDAY - oh look, it's alph!
TUESDAY - here's the streetpass tin pin slammer game. Spin to win!
WEDNESDAY - returning Vet... Wario?
THURSDAY - Here's a picture of the UI nobody wanted to know about
FRIDAY - enjoy today's Smash Direct!

:3
 
On the off-hand chance, Mii Fighters don't appear on CSS, I'm going with this:

For fun, I dare someone to prove this CSS wrong.
While I still believe that the ESRB leak is the final roster, (would love to be proven wrong tho!) I'd say this makes sense too! Only thing is I would change Dixie's slot to "alt turned clone" or just "new clone" since people are just assuming Dixie because they want her. :P Could be anyone really.
 
I honestly think they're going to save Ridley, Impa, maybe K Rool and Splatoon Girl for Smash 5. Otherwise, they have nothing to market lol.

I think you mean ace pilot Krok MacRool and the beloved Pokemon Ridleychu.

Slippy was going to make weapons for snake.
So that can only mean good things.

-------------

Donkey Kong didn't make it into the top 5 i'm guessing.
You all are horrible.
 
Didn't know about Pikachu.

Do you or perhaps anyone else know exactly at what point he moves?

After unlocking Luigi, if memory serves. Luigi takes Pikachu's spot next to Mario and Pikachu jumps down two rows to start the Pokemon section.

If it's not just Luigi, it's after unlocking him and Dr. Mario.

Ridley as Charizard clone!

You say that now but a lot of Smash 4 newcomers didn't exist when Brawl was out. I'd say the same will happen for Smash 5.
 
Another thought

Why would Miis need to replace the random spot if there's plenty of room on the CSS for them to have their own slot?

So either the Mii Random spot thing is fake, there are more characters, or Sakurai was on some serious stuff when he made the CSS.

Good point. Miis replacing random was always a weird concept. I guess you could argue they have DLC planned and want spots open...
 
Hard to believe this could all be put to rest within 24 hours, assuming the GameFAQs guy is A) Legit and B) A good person.

He just posted in the GFaqs thread saying he'll get it on Tuesday at the earliest after all :P

I bet there's a leak coming real soon either way. Retail copies cannot be contained.

Rosalina, Bowser Jr, Palutena, Little Mac, Duck Hunt Dog, Villager, Pacman, Megaman and Mii Fighters all existed before Brawl. Only new comers born after 2008 are Robin, Greninja, Chrous Men, Dark Pit, Lucina and Shulk.

Having 6 newer characters + Ridley/KRool/Krystal/Impa & Co. would be easier to market than just 6-7 new characters.
 
Steel Diver fans, if you exist, what would you say the mascot submarine is for the franchise? I just went with the Garfish because it's the first unlocked in Sub Wars.
 
oh okay then, good to know, and my "our OT" you mean just this one right? It would be hard to be spoiler free in the 3DS one for hidden characters and the such I would imagine.

No. POTD thread and Smash 3DS OT are two separate threads.

POTD thread is for mainly NA/EU Peeps and Wii U peeps then Once 3DS is out for worldwide, then It's for Wii U POTD.

That's still 6 newcomers that didn't exist at that time. I'm saying even if they get low with old characters, they'll probably have a few new ones to give us too.

I'd say some characters we missed this time around might get in one day, too. I was surprised we didn't get Dillon or Wonder Red.

There is no way Random slot goes away. It's something essential.

I thought the Miis take up the Random slot? Also, I'm not really sure if we'll get Ridley.
