:(

Too bad they dropped the manga/anime stuff from the NOA version, but was expected.
 
They were talking about Super Smash Bros. DS (which may carry over to Smash Bros. U) but.... they were only talking about 3DS games in this video.
 
Is there a chance that this is Ganbarion? They made Jump Ultimate Stars, which is essentially smash bros, so I wouldn't be surprised if they're the team from Bamco working on this.

But Ganbarion is more a Nintendo team bozo. Pandora's Tower. Jump Stars.

This actually sounds very good. Someone update the title and OP?
 
Who else immediately thought of Lloyd from Tales of Symphonia when this was announced?

Pac-Man VS Sonic VS Mario. People will explode if this happens.

Kos-Mos would be the much more logical RPG choice given the link of Monolith Soft and her being a very popular character.

Masahiro Sakurai
Hello, I'm Masahiro Sakurai, the director of the Super Smash Bros. series.

It's my personal belief that the only time a creative product really resonates is in that first moment when it's actually in front of you.

With that said, I've realized that if we keep the new Super Smash Bros. title's development structure secret, it'll only create more and more speculation, and I won't be able to develop the game with any freedom. That's why I've decided to announce this news right now, even though it's still very early on.

I would love to provide more information, but for now, I'm going to stay quiet until I have something solid to show you.

The project has just gotten started. Bear in mind that not only are we developing two titles simultaneously, but we announced the project before we even started actual development, so I'm afraid we will likely have to keep you waiting for quite a while. Please be patient.

Currently, the prototype prepared by NAMCO BANDAI Games and NAMCO BANDAI Studios' special team looks pretty good, and it's working great. In order to take advantage of the fact that there will be versions for two different systems, and to maximize and offer fun new gameplay elements, the entire team is going to work hard together. Thank you.

Kobayashi

All the top creators from NAMCO BANDAI are gathered here to create a never-before-seen dream team for this project. We will fully utilize our experience and knowledge in action/fighting game development, technical capability, and organizational strength, and we hereby promise you that we will develop the best and most powerful "Super Smash Bros." title ever! Don't miss it!

I would imagine that BK O characters would be the Namco Assist Trophy characters.

I really doubt Sakurai overloads the game with 3rd Party characters. Likely 1 or 2 max from each and then layering in characters with Trophy's like Shadow/Grey Fox as well as back grounds in the stage.
 
I would love for Yuri to be in this game, but he probably won't due to the Nintendo console rule. Well Lloyd isn't too bad either. (although we will probably get Pac-Man or a Tekken rep instead)
