Awesome! We got the Luigi reveal early!

I wasn't expecting Smash Bros news so I'm happy.

 

[Village]

What is that supposed to mean? ¬¬

He's no wario I'll tell you that much.

 

[Berordn]

Hahaha, Luigi. I was right that he would be starter character. No way that he would be secret character again.

However, it suck that he don't have any vacuum.

We still don't know that he'll be available from the start, though.

 

[SuperSah]

What is that supposed to mean? ¬¬

Meaning at least we got something!

I'm happy he was announced. :>

 

[zroid]

How is Luigi being revealed a disappointment? A character is a character, and I honestly wasn't expecting Smash Bros. to be shown at all.

the hype train has only one possible destination

 

[BGBW]

so I don't see what other reason Sakurai would have for revealing him so early.

It's the Year of Luigi. And it's not like his inclusion would be a surprise.

 

[MrSaturn99]

you have a pretty nice avatar

Thanks.

So, does this mean Luigi isn't an unlockable anymore?

 

[IntelliHeath]

We still don't know that he'll be available from the start, though.

I don't think they would announce secret characters early but other than third party characters.

Thanks.

So, does this mean Luigi isn't an unlockable anymore?

I would like to think so.

 

[Kouichi]

Now update the site, Sakurai.

I want to see his character art.

 

[qq more]

He can still be a secret character. It's possible he was made an exception because you know... Year of Luigi!

but eh I'm not complaining either way

 

[IntelliHeath]

Now update the site, Sakurai.

I want to see his character art.

We have to wait until Japanese Direct is over then they might update the website.

 

[Kjellson]

Anyone got pics of Luigi?

 

[SuperSah]

Luigi also looks sweet on 3DS!

Glad they're keeping consistent quality here.

 

[foxuzamaki]

was expecting luigi and glad he was confirmed

 

[J@hranimo]

Now update the site, Sakurai.

THIS. I expect it to be silly yet awesome.

 

[SuperSah]

Luigi is on!

 

[Anbec7]

Glad we at least got something, so....... when is the next big event that probably will throw us a trailer? TGS???

 

[SuperSah]

 

[Kouichi]

Love the new daily screenshot.

 

[TrueBlue]

"I only need two minutes, baby...."

 

[Berordn]

I don't think they would announce secret characters early but other than third party characters.

Luigi's not a secret anymore, he's a tradition.

 

[Bill Rizer]

No Poltergust Luigi

 

[ffdgh]

I KNEW IT! Weegee <3

 

[Busaiku]

Why doesn't Luigi jump.

 

[PK Gaming]

I do it

So classic, reminds me of Super Smash Bros: 64!

 

[qq more]

okkkkkkkkk

 

[foxuzamaki]

 

[BGBW]

The taunt has changed?

 

[MrSaturn99]

That character art. And this screenshot.

I am laughing so hard.

Also, wasn't this pose from one of the Mario & Luigi games?

 

[Jintor]

These screens are great

 

[J@hranimo]

These pics are gold XD.

 

[Bill Rizer]

Why doesn't Luigi jump.

This pic is totally awesome. It's been said 1 million times, but next Smash graphics are plain incredible.

 

[Metal B]

Does anyone think Sakurai might have removed hidden characters for the same reason he isn't doing a story mode (spoilers posted instantly online)? Luigi's been hidden for all three Smash Bros., and he's even hidden in the Mario games, so I don't see what other reason Sakurai would have for revealing him so early.

I simply hope he hides character, which are really a surprise to anybody. Everybody expects Luigi, Captain Falcon, Jippypuff and Ness. They were the original secret characters ...

 

[Senator Soufflé]

Happy for Luigi though I don't think any of the pics show any new moves. He has to get the Poltergust.

 

[SuperSah]

 

[Village]

His body is ready.

 

[Regulus Tera]

Also, wasn't this pose from one of the Mario & Luigi games?

It's part of one of his taunts in Brawl.

 

[Übermatik]

Love the new daily screenshot.

Wow. Dem polygons...

 

[fisheyes]

These are new poses, right? I don't remember them from previous games. One is Mario & Luigi inspired, the other is Luigi's Mansion inspired. Taunts? Would they bother changing taunts to reference games and then changing nothing else in the moveset? Or is this a compromise for NOT changing anything in the moveset?

 

[DaBoss]

lmao

Good to see my favourite Mario taunt back.

 

[Berordn]

It's part of one of his taunts in Brawl.

It is from his Partners in Time artwork though:

 

[illadelph]

Skyloft stage.....has this been revealed yet?

 

[Save 'N Quit]

Don't be sad Luigi

 

[BGBW]

Skyloft stage.....has this been revealed yet?

In the first trailer…

 

[Berordn]

Skyloft stage.....has this been revealed yet?

It was the unique first stage they showed off of the Wii U version in the first trailer.

 

[ffdgh]

Skyloft stage.....has this been revealed yet?

Yeah in the reveal trailer lol.

 

[qq more]

Skyloft stage.....has this been revealed yet?

Since the reveal of the game itself, yes.

 

[Tsunamo]

Good to see weegee back complete with hilarious screenshots.

 

[Cryxok]

I guess this debunks the old rumor where they were working on Mewtwo and that the next character to be revealed would be a Pokemon rep.
i just hope Mewtwo comes back

 

[illadelph]

haha damn I forgot about that
