I really should've made that avatar bet with Black-Wind when the offer was made. I KNEW nothing was going to be shown at E3, but I wussed out.

Exactly, and they did way better with E3 Nintendo Direct, which is like few days after E3.
Pokemon Black/White 2 next week
I seriously doubt that.
I would like to bump my post since it was near to end of the page.

He must return, we need more old dudes up in here! As for newcomers:
I base this on absolutely nothing, but I firmly believe we'll see Isaac at the launch trailer.
To be honest, I don't mind to see Snake and Sonic coming back. I doubt they will. I'm with you for Isaac being in SSB4 but he have low chance to be in the game honestly.

Old Snake is for chumps or at least an alt costume, give me Solid Snake circa MGS1.
I honestly wouldn't mind, seeing that it was Twin Snakes that was on the GC. As long as they don't give him Big Boss' face again.

Snake's a bit up in the air (though I'm leaning towards him coming back and he was a blast to play with), but there's no way in hell Sonic won't be returning, especially given how cameo-happy SEGA's been lately.

I have absolutely no doubt that Sonic will be in the game. There's no reason both Nintendo and Sega wouldn't want him back. I don't think Snake is as much of a lock, though.
Smash 4's first trailer is going to be as epic as every other reveal, maybe even more. Idk how they're gonna top Brawl though with the Snake reveal. Minds will be blown.
If Snake and Sonic aren't back, idk how ill feel about that yet. It's not like they're clones or anything but it will be up to Sakurai.
:3 Damn straight. That game is gonna last me probably til Smash 4 comes out. I'm sure of it. And I will probably get White 2 down the line. I have too.

E3? You mean Direct
As in for the Smash 4 reveal trailer? Maybe but isn't still too early? I mean wouldn't they want to focus on their current lineup and features for the WiiU?

He has to get approval for some characters, at least. He couldn't use Marth in Melee until he asked Intelligent Systems and he had to ask Animal Crossing's producer about using one of their characters for Brawl.

I think he means it's likely to turn up at a Direct as opposed to the next one.

The more I think on it, the more certain I become that Snake and Sonic will return alongside Pac-Man and Bayonetta.
that was so annoying

Or Blathers
yeah, he could attack with counterfeit paintings and coffee from Brewster, pigeon milk=more damage.

The best Animal Crossing character.
His final smash should have him sing (and sometimes becomes DJ Slider) and then the credits roll as everyone else is taking damage for absolutely no reason!

I would love for that to happen, but I think Bayonetta is too M-rated for Smash Bros. The guns are the least of her problems; her game is all about ripping monsters into bloody chunks, fighting angels and God, and stripping. Unlike Snake, I think it would be difficult to tone her down enough to make her fit with Mario.
She's probably more realistic than Travis Touchdown, though.
You're right about the motives and actions of the game but at the same time it is very quirky, goofy, and never takes itself too seriously, like Bayonetta herself. I really think Bayo's personality would fit well with the other characters. You can easily see her charm between all the action. Also, the zelda and kid icarus series also feature heavenly figures so it would be too out of the ordinary for her.
Since she won't be in her own universe, you wouldn't have to worry about decapitation and gore. Amd Instead of stripping they could easily give her a skin tight suit like ZSS when she uses her wicked weave. It's not like her build is over exaggerated so again it could work.
That or Mr. Resetti. He looks like he could use that pickaxe.

I really hope Lucario comes back too.
Why? Just asking. I play every generation that comes out and I sorta care if he's in or not.
Lucario's kinda interesting in that I don't like his design much at all, but I like his moveset and it's nice to have some pokereps outside of gen 1. I'm sorta hoping for just Pikachu, 'puff, Lucario and a gen 5 (or 6 depending on how close we are to both), even though I love Mewtwo and Pokemon Trainer. I think that's a nice chunk of pokelove without taking up too many slots

Hey, if Nintendo's willing to publish the IP then I'm sure they can make a Smash version that works.
All they have to do is scale back the hair loss thing really.
I don't really like Lucario's moveset myself. I like some things, just overall not the type of character I can use effectively. Although, I can't use Metaknight effectively either. I could use Mewtwo pretty effectively, but he was plagued with not having enough close range tools. Hitboxes were kinda lousy on em, and the delay his up close attacks had were kinda bad.
If they bring back Mewtwo, I'd like them to give him a B grab move of some sort, and improved smashes.

There's never too much Poke-love ... and I don't see Pokemon losing any slots anytime soon.

His move set and the fact that his movie is great. Plus I'm using him in my HG run right now and I just love him. Not to mention he's Pokemon's only fighting type representative in a FIGHTING GAME.
Agree which is why I'm worried about Lucario. Cautiously optimistic he'll return, but still slightly worried.
I'd like to think Trainer will return, his gimmick was cool.
N as an alt would be nice. Or if B2/W2's anything to go by, have him be the new trainer with Zoroark, giving Lucario the boot and Mewtwo back in!
Hah, I know! I'm indifferent as to which pokemon make it in, since it's a no-brainer that Pikachu will be in.

Ehh, so what?
Replace PT with another generation's PT (I actually think it's more likely that PT will come back with a Counter Part trainer that's a gym leader/ Pokemon Champion/ Dragon Master/ Rival trainer or something else important in the games with their own set of 3 Pokemon). Replace Lucario with another favor-of-the-month Promo mon. No loss in "slots".
At this rate gen 6 Pokemon will be far more likely than something from Gen 5 :/
^This was posted on Sakurai's twitter. It's probably nothing, but it's Smash related nontheless. Don't ask me to translate...

At first I considered whether or not this was a hint, but then I saw Ike. Looks badass though! Fan-made it seems.

From what I can piece together it seems that a college student at Tokyo Tech sent Sakurai a picture of a campus advertisement for a Brawl tournament and Sakurai liked it enough to comment on it.

Also I brought up Tom Nook because now you can nowcater your fetish about him fill your room with Tom Nook stuff.

All Smash characters now come from Pokémon. Any non-Pokémon characters have been cut.
That is too much Poké-love. The barrier does exist. How high it is will vary, but I think we can agree that that situation would be well beyond it.
The only characters I can imagine being in jeopardy are Falco, Wolf, Lucario, Pokemon Trainer, Ness or Lucas, Marth or Ike, and Toon Link. The rest of them are solid iconic characters with no suitable replacements and no real reason to remove them. Trimming 7 characters from the roster would already be far more than Melee lost.

We're always in the cutting part, we are always in the cycle, it's just how this stuff works.
