=O That's so awesome!

 

[PsychBat!]

YESSS!

He looks awesome!

 

[zroid]

wasn't expecting a pic so soon, thought it was fake :lol

 

[Hours Left]

The first official assist trophy. Pretty cool.

This week was a huge improvement over last week, and we probably have a character reveal this weekend too.

 

[Roo]

EDIT: FUCK ME!!!!!!!

THAT LOOKS FUCKING INSANE!!!

 

[SmithnCo]

I assume he calls down the moon because that's all he did in that game.

 

[MannyToons]

Hm. Wonder what he'll do.

...That's it. That's the end of my post. Can't really think of anything interesting enough, lol.

 

[Immaculate]

Thank God he's not playable.

[Gleethor]

I guess we all assumed that they would, but it's nice to have confirmation of assist trophies returning.

 

[Tan]

A NEW THING YAY

 

[EmCeeGramr]

I assume he calls down the moon because that's all he did in that game.

Probably, but he also cast curses on everything. He might be able to cast random status ailments on other players.

 

[I'M FINISHED!]

SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSMOKIN'!

Wait, this is real? I thought you were trolling lol
Best Assist Trophy ever. T.T

 

[zroid]

so really

Majora's Mask 3D has to be real at this point, right?

also where do assist trophies fall on the threadworthiness scale?

 

[Dimitri LH]

I almost had a heart attack at that pic! HE LOOKS AMAZING! IWATA'S BIRTHDAY REDEEMED!

That's a damn good model for an assist trophy. Way better than the one's Brawl had.

 

[SmithnCo]

And wata birthday it has been

 

[J@hranimo]

Wow.

Wooooow.

How long has it been? Skull Kid looks GREAT in HD! Even as a AT, this is pretty exciting. Nice one Mr. Sakurai.

make a troll thread

"Skull Kid announced for Smash"

then in the op:

"As an assist trophy"

 

[MannyToons]

And wata birthday it has been

I can't, lmao.

 

[Save 'N Quit]

Praise the sun!

A Majora's Mask remake is coming sooner than I thought.

 

[Fandangox]

Niiiiice!

Someone should do a duckroll and make a new thread with a vague title.

 

[Dimitri LH]

make a troll thread

"Skull Kid announced for Smash"

then in the op:

"As an assist trophy"

Your not Duckroll.... D:<

 

[Sciz]

Skull Kid's looking fiiiiiiine.

 

[Broritos]

That's the same Skull Kid model they used in the 3DS remake.

 

[zroid]

make a troll thread

"Skull Kid announced for Smash"

"As an assist trophy"

Great minds think alike :3

 

[BassForever]

so will he crash the moon into the arena?

Also is this the first official confirmation that assist tropes are back?

 

[I'M FINISHED!]

Also is this the first official confirmation that assist tropes are back?

I believe so.

 

[Sponge]

Nice to see Sakurai at least acknowledged Skull Kid and made him an Assist. I wonder highly requested characters will make it as Assists this time around? If we get anymore Zelda ones, I hope we get Groose.

 

[Gummb]

Damn that looks hot as hell. Whew!!

 

[PikaED]

nvm
Skull Kid looks great, can't think of anything else he'd do other that making the moon fall on the stage.

[Boss Doggie]

Hahahahah!

Take that, you poll-manipulating website!

Anyway is Villager the only Smash character whose origin is in Nintendo 64?

 

[BassForever]

Was Wolf in snes Star Fox?

 

[Ryce]

Hahahahah!

Sheik, Ganondorf (technically), and Wolf.

 

[batfax]

Skull Kid looks so goooooooooood. I wonder if he'll do something typical like drop the moon on the battle field (as an AT version of Snorlax or something) or if he'll do somethin' crazy like change everyone into Deku Scrubs.

Now I really hope a new trailer is soon-ish just to see ATs in action.

 

[qq more]

Hahahahah!

Does Sheik count?

Was Wolf in snes Star Fox?

Star Fox 2 (cancelled)

 

[Sponge]

Besides maybe Ganondorf and Wolf

Spoiler

I'd sort of consider Link too since he's based off the blonde "Adult Link", which began with OoT.

Star Fox 2 sorta counts.

Sheik, Ganondorf (technically), and Wolf.

Oh yeah, forgot about Sheik. I'd not count Ganon in essence but I guess that works too.

Now I'm interested in 2D Sheik..

I'd sort of consider Link too since he's based off the blonde "Adult Link", which began with OoT.

So what was the Link in 64 based from? Then again I wasn't really clear on the release date of Smash 64 and OoT so I guess he could be based from OoT still.

Fuck you, OP. I just woke up. My poor heart D;

 

[Foxy Fox 39]

f you too sakurai.

edit: looks like hes gonna drop the moon on the stage.

 

[SmithnCo]

Lucas kinda started on N64. Though obviously that version wasn't released.

 

[Anth0ny]
