It's kind of weird to see Toon Link considering the character is also in the background of a 3DS stage:

If you want to get snooty about it, this "Spirit Tracks" Link is not the same as "Wind Waker / Phantom Hourglass" Link, but eeeehhhh.

 

[DaBoss]

Bored at work.

Alternate costume please.

Great work.

 

[MagiusNecros]

Oh my. He looks amazing in those screenshots with all those emotional expressions.

+ That Toon Link is full on DS polygons! The difference is fine.

 

[Subaru]

I'm sad that Toon Link seems to be a Link clone again.
I was expecting some Wind Waker related attacks, the Leaf should be used for floating and like FLUDD attack

Bored at work.

Avatar version available? Love it.

You did good.

Can a dude get a pink hair version.

lol True. Polygon Link I guess.

 

[balladofwindfishes]

Alternate costume please.

It was in Brawl, it'd be weird for it not to return as an alt color.

So, since Toon Link shows up in both the Spirit Tracks stage and as a playable character, does that mean that Ridley won't be deconfirmed even if he is a stage hazard in the Pyrosphere?

Come to think of it... was it actually a different Ridley in Other M? Because of the whole

[Rlan]

Also rather disappointed that Olimar, Peach, Luigi and Toon Link have been announced but haven't been shown with any gameplay yet. It's probably too early, but I'd love to see the equivelant of the Wii Fit Trainer and Villiager reveal stuff for each character.

 

[BassForever]

Legit shook that toon link wasn't cut, I'm happy though I love toon links play style far more then of link

OK, I thought I was imaging that lol.

It was a cloned Ridley I think. Part of the Zebes DNA cluster collection and well stuff happens.

 

[Angel Whispers]

Hello people! This is my first Gaf post. I'd like to share with you something I casually came up with in the last few days.

Speaking of new characters in Smash 4, I think after Wii Fit Trainer and Villager each of the main Nintendo series has an iconic rep in the roster. But... Mario Kart is obviously not included, since it has no original characters. Still, it's one of the most successful Nintendo series.

So I thought, what about adding the Kart itself? Not as an actual character of course, but as a special item which, when any character rides it, gives it new stats and an entirely new Mario Kart-based movepool. You'd get a speed and powerful "character", maybe with some tweaks based on who rides it, like its weight; maybe you had to build it, like with the Dragoon in Brawl (as a reference to MK7, where you build your vehicles); maybe if you use the Final Smash while on the kart, it would be the blue shell...
I think this would be the perfect way to acknowledge Mario Kart in an unique way, giving the series the credit it deserves.

Can't wait to see Ridley riding a kart...

Welcome! I just got access and started posting recently as well. I got a nice warm welcome and wanted to pass on the sentiment!

I really like the idea of it being an item that you get control of for a limited amount of time (longer than the hammer but same idea) i'm not sure they would invest the time in it to make it have unique attributes for individual characters but it would be really fun (control similar to wario's bike but without being able the be knocked off)

Welcome to NeoGAF, Goldensun_it and voltronbadA . It's dangerous to go alone on here, so, take this!!

There are many Ridleys. So, we should expect two different playable Ridleys.

We are getting M:OM Ridley as stage hazard but we are getting Melee's Ridley as playable character! Right? Right? FOR THOSE RIDLEY FANS!

 

[MagiusNecros]

Which means Ridley can only use one leg. Because he holding onto "the baby".

More Ridley means more fun. Super Ridley Bros. needs to happen.

 

[AGoodODST]

You know who I wouldn't mind seeing included? Chase McCain. Could work quite well from a gameplay perspective.

Granted he is rather new on the scene, but the games are exclusive to Nintendo platforms.

He could be announced at the same event as Batman.

 

[georly]

Link is the batman of nintendo. Nobody else keeps that much gear on them at any given time.

 

[BigEvilTurtle]

I'm Smash GAF, and I assume movesets based off of a few screenshots. I so smart.

Maybe not full, but it's obvious that a few have returned for sure.

 

[zroid]

omg

 

[Camjo-Z]

The shots we've seen clearly show he still has bombs, arrows, and the spin attack right? I think it's a pretty safe assumption that he'll have the same moveset he did before, unless they decide to drastically change his A button attacks.

When Sakurai state moveset not final and might change hurr.

Technically I based it off of the Link Between Worlds art work hence the more orangey hair and blue eyes.

You did good.

I've always wanted him to have his leaf as an Up B to glide, or as a side B to blow people away (like a burst version of fludd).

Endgame Samus is packing more heat than some small countries.

 

[Anbec7]

I ... don't know anymore!

While I'm happy to see veterans returning, I hope he gets a different moveset...

Now I need a new VIDEO c'mon Nintendo!!

 

[MagiusNecros]

New video's are reserved for newcomers. Veterans aren't getting any.

 

[PBalfredo]

I await the inevitable screenshot of Link and Toon Link and Spirit Tracks Link together on the train.

 

[Ryce]

I don't know why so many people were expecting Toon Link to be cut when Zelda is one of Nintendo's biggest franchises. I'm glad to see him confirmed so early.

 

[Qurupeke]

New video's are reserved for newcomers. Veterans aren't getting any.

I really hope that the next newcomer is coming soon.

 

[Neoriceisgood]

It has been done.

Glorious

Good call. Most her her arsenal is weapons though. I'd say link has more 'utility' than her, but she can probably achieve more with her grapple/screwattack/visors than link can with all of his items combined.

 

[IntelliHeath]

Look like he got same moveset as he did in Brawl. You can see his spinning sword attack, bomb and arrow/bow.

Yeah, That's what Sakurai said, right?

It has been done.

SOOOOOO CUTEEEEEEE!

 

[DaBoss]

It has been done.

His eyebrows are no longer above his hair.

Still looks amazing.

 

[DangerJuice]

I'm very pleased he's back in the game. I felt like they may have cut him and made Link a culmination of both characters from Brawl. Maybe everyone is returning...? I hope.

 

[Anbec7]

It has been done.

Did someone already requested this?

If not, can I have it please? :3

I think there's a list somewhere of shotgun calls.

 

[Polioliolio]

I think that makes it even weirder. You can have a good looking Toon Link standing directly next to a horrible looking Toon Link. The contrast is hideous.

They really just ought to add some polygons to that poor guy.

 

[IntelliHeath]

I hope so including Mewtwo and Roy.

 

[Polioliolio]

Anyone else bothered by his bend bending flexes with the mid air shots?

He looks so bizarre.. Think they'll fix it?

 

[ash_ag]

It has been done.

I hope the whole roster in sprites will be on the SSB4 |OT|. Those have become really iconic.

 

[Anbec7]

Ok... I will wait.

I shall claim the next newcomer then (If we ever get one soon)
