What would a Mii even do? Throw Plaza puzzle pieces? Streetpass Mario to make him check his 3DS mid-battle? Use a hang glider from Pilotwings? Summon other Miis for help?
...
I guess if they made the Mii character a fourth wall-breaking gamer like Ai from NeoGeo Battle Coliseum, I wouldn't mind.
They could always go with Default Robin. After seeing Villager and Wii Fit Trainer, anything's possible.
Q: How does Mewtwo change form? Do you want him in Smash? A: -long pause- Can't explain "Mewthree" Pokemon. Can't talk about other games.
Sakurai just chimed in (joking) - "We're thinking about it."
Snake was always a really awkward fit with the tone of the game. I'd honestly rather see a Belmont or Alucard than him.If Pac-Man is confirmed that would make this legendary. Can you imagine? Mario vs Sonic vs Mega Man vs Pac-Man sounds like a match made in heaven. I know Sonic isn't confirmed but with Nintendo's relationship with Sega and the continuing Mario & Sega series it seems like a safe bet he would return. My one concern is that Snake won't be returning, four characters seems pushing it when Sakurai emphasized only special third-party candidates would make the game. That coupled with the more 'serious' direction MGSV is taking makes me doubt his return appearance. I hope I'm wrong, the character played off the wackiness of Nintendo perfectly and had a pretty unique moveset to boot.
I don't want Mii Playable :/
Once more, I wouldn't mind Mii, Villager, and Trainer in themselves and revealed spread out...but introducing all around the same time gives a "bland" impression, even if the characters themselves, well the two we've seen, look pretty fun.
Was so expecting Takamaru too. :/
Agreed.
Again, I agree. There feels like there something missing in the reveal, imo.
I feel like Pac-Man would make for a good reveal this week to be all "HEY, remember the fact that Namco's working on this game? Well, here's Pac-Man, Namco's mascot joining the roster!" Plus I want a game where ya have Mario vs. Mega Man vs. Pac-Man.vs. Sonic if we're lucky.
With Mii included, it sounds like some characters could be missing. Villager and Mii can both Nintendo dumpsters, carrying out things that those old retro stages or Mr Game & Watch did
If the rumor is true, then that's already 6 new characters. With a new FE, Pokemon, Pikmin, Kid Icarus, and DK coming out between Brawl and Smash 4, I don't know if that leaves enough room for those games to get some representatives. Not to mention X and W101.
So it looks like we are pretty much set to get another three characters revealed during E3 or atleast close to it.
This is my dream battle. I called Megaman and Pac-man (yes this one is a rumor but still), people were bitching that he isn't creative enough to get moves. If the fucking Wii Fit Trainer got in, if there's no rep from Golden Sun or Custom Robo I'm raging hard Sakurai, then Pac-Man has a ridiculously long arsenal of moves.
I will riot in the streets if Game&Watch is gone, my anger would know no bounds.
I've heard this mentioned elsewhere. Why are people thinking this exactly?
How do you know how much room is available in the first place? Has Sakurai commented on how many characters will be in these games?
Wii Fit Trainer is funny, but I really don't want a Mii character. Blaaaah.
Who else is shocked this is coming out in 2014? I was expecting a late 2015 release.
I agree, Mr. GAW is my main, I'm indomitable with him. But I don't think he's in danger. There's love for him on Sakurai's staff, as this whiteboard drawing a staff member made early in development shows (posted on Sakurai's Twitter long ago):I will riot in the streets if Game&Watch is gone, my anger would know no bounds.

We haven't had the Smash delay yet.
the reason I don't want Miis in is because they look so out of place in every game they are in. It always cheapens the game for me since they are so low poly compared to everything around them. Just never looks good.

The psychotic interpretation of Animal Crossing has existed since at least The Terrible Secret of Animal Crossing LP.
Lack of subspace probably....hopefully.Who else is shocked this is coming out in 2014? I was expecting a late 2015 release.

If Yellow Devil is in story mode, I want Proto to show up too.
I can dream.
