Today is the Bastille Day, the best day to present a french new rival.

 

[Moonlight]

Seven should be their own character, and their Final Smash should be

Spoiler

the Mechonis shell robot.

ALAS

 

[Sadist]

Please no Rayman

 

[Aβydoς]

Please no Rayman

Yeah no good characters please! The roster is already too awesome as it is! D:

 

[JediLink]

I want to prepare myself for 3DS/Wii U Smash, but am unsure which of the previous Smash Bros I should play. Melee or Brawl?

The closest thing Smash 4 is probably going to be Brawl+.

Spoiler

But play Melee anyway.

 

[StayDead]

PlayStation All-Stars. That way, no matter how good/bad Smash 4 is, it'll still be an improvement over the last game you played.

Hot damn, PSABR better get some burn heal for that one.

Today is the Bastille Day, the best day to present a french new rival.

What, we're going to celebrate French National Day and the storming of the Bastille but not 'MURICA?

 

[ryanofcall]

why do people call this spoiler when this battle is like the opening scene on the game?

I would rather it be a stage made of them both and floating platforms moving around it

if not platforms one of the ships you take from late game

I would like Seventh to be Shulks final Smash

Well you don't know that

Spoiler

it's happening again.

I'd be fine with floating platforms, too.

As long as it's not the place you fight the last boss, I'm fine.

Spoiler

That looked like FD though, didn't it? It's been a while but that's how I remember it xD

Yeah seventh Final Smash would actually be awesome, too!

 

[PsychBat!]

Yeah no good characters please! The roster is already too awesome as it is! D:

yeah and smash should have master chief and nathan drake! come on nintendo, get with the times and listen to our realistic demands!!

 

[ryanofcall]

I want Pokémon Center as a playable Character.

 

[Jaeger]

I have no idea what's going on.

 

[Aβydoς]

yeah and smash should have master chief and nathan drake! come on nintendo, get with the times and listen to our realistic demands!!

Yep, absolutely the same thing.

Spoiler

And by the way, I'd totally be down for Drake.

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

yeah and smash should have master chief and nathan drake! come on nintendo, get with the times and listen to our realistic demands!!

I second this emotion.

 

[Zubz]

Did I seriously wake up to a 3rd Party Trophy? ... Am I still asleep?

Also, all this Mach Rider talk makes me want him/her more, or at least a revival that feels like Mad Max/Barbarella/Drive.

 

[I'M FINISHED!]

I think Sakurai is gonna make Glass Joe playable and announce it today on the SSB site

Glass Joe is the new Pichu.

 

[Platy]

This is AMAZING

Rayman was my 3rd character in my Top 10 Third Party Character drawings on Miiverse, with Pacman in first place.

Now I want bomberman .... or L Tetrimino xD

A Tetris character would be truly creative. Assist trophy needs to happen, but if anybody could come up with a moveset... Impressive!

 

[Not75Drops]

Just wondering. Will this be the last time sakurai announce the new characters?

Well there should be a direct next month. Then the 3DS version launches in September so I would say there's less than 3 left to be announced.

 

[PsychBat!]

Yep, absolutely the same thing.

Spoiler

And by the way, I'd totally be down for Drake.

drake sucks, play PSASBR if you want him

 

[Aβydoς]

drake sucks, play PSASBR if you want him

I did, the game is pretty bad. Drake doesn't suck though

 

[Shotgun Kiss]

Rayman Origins and Legends were so damn good, I would welcome Rayman with open arms, especially if we got a stage based on them.

 

[Axass]

Sweet, he has ran out of Nintendo characters, so now Sakurai's finding the time to deconfirm 3rd party characters.

Snake sticker incoming!

 

[ryanofcall]

I only played Golden Abyss, and he really didn't grow on me or something, but maybe GA is just a bad example?

 

[HawthorneKitty]

That only Drake this game needs is Walgreens Drake.

 

[JoeInky]

He ran out of good nintendo characters the moment palutena and miis made it into the game anyway.

 

[YesManKablaam]

I'd be really pleased with Shulk being confirmed today, only if it means Xenoblade Chronicles gets a re-release in anticipation of X. C'MON!

 

[Juansho]

yeah and smash should have master chief and nathan drake! come on nintendo, get with the times and listen to our realistic demands!!

I want Generic Call of Duty Soldier #37

 

[Aβydoς]

Never played it but I know it's probably the worst one.

Anyway, Origins and Legends were some of the best platforms of the generation (yep even better than Tropical Freeze) so Rayman totally deserves to be in the game. Hopefully he will.

But... I liked PSAR :[

 

[Conrad Link]

I can barely tolerate a Rayman trophy I don't know how I'd feel if he was an actual character. :| Not a fan at all. Barf.

And this coming from someone who enjoyed Origins and Legends.

Doubt its gonna happen thankfully. Shulk believe.

 

[ryanofcall]

I want Generic Call of Duty Soldier #37

Personally I prefer #21
edit: or the dog.

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

I mean I'd prefer Rayman to Shulk but..

How does your mind work?

 

[Axass]

He ran out of good nintendo characters the moment palutena and miis made it into the game anyway.

As long as Isaac, Ridley, K.Rool, Dixie, etc. are there, he still has plenty of good characters to add.

 

[ryanofcall]

[JMizzlin]

Globox for character.

 

[Conrad Link]

Good game, don't like the character?

Doubt I'm the only one.

 

[Jintor]

On a side note, today was the first day where I thought for sure someone had mocked up an incredible fake until I checked the MiiVerse posting.

 

[JoeInky]

As long as Isaac, Ridley, K.Rool, Dixie, etc. are there, he still has plenty of good characters to add.

But he's not going to add any of them or saki, ray, excitebiker, mach rider, etc. in when he can add more side characters from franchises that already have representation and boring player avatars with no personaity.

 

[ryanofcall]

I remember someone mentioning that a Nintendo employee blabbered out that there are bosses in Smash Run. And King K. Rool or another Kremling being one of them.
I think it was in a e3 discussion of GameXplain.
Could be nothing though.

 

[Aβydoς]

Good game, don't like the character?

Doubt I'm the only one.

Really don't understand this. Being in the game means much more than having the character. A stage is a given, assist trophies, items. Can't believe you would spare all that just because you're not a fan of the design (which is insane btw since Rayman looks great but whatever).

I play Rayman Legends as Barbara. Like the games, dislike Rayman himself and his weird squishy friend :3

I still don't think salromano's characters are the only newcomers. This would mean only two hidden ones (Chrom and Chorus Kids).

There are other characters out there and even if there weren't, we have DLC.

I doubt any leak outside of the salromano one is even remotely legitimate.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Hilariously enough, I like Rayman the character but I think his recent games are overhyped by GAF and aren't remarkable.

You think Rayman looks cool, I've always thought Rayman looked stupid, even the trophy looks pretty off. Sorry you disagree with me!

Doesn't matter either way as its not happening, my guess: something Kirby... its always Kirby.

 

[Axass]

Hilariously enough, I like Rayman the character but I think his recent games are overhyped by GAF and aren't remarkable.

Origins is legit good. Very fast paced platformer which is crazy good even in multiplayer. It doesn't have the stage design perfection of Mario or its charm and atmosphere, but it's still a solid game.

 

[JoeInky]

I'm pretty sure we know the entire starting roster and how many characters are going to be in the base game now except for the unlockable vets.

 

[Conrad Link]

And yes I would trade all the Raymen in the world for a Xenoblade stage, assist trophies, items, MUSIC etc.

 

[Golnei]

Hilariously enough, I like Rayman the character but I think his recent games are overhyped by GAF and aren't remarkable.

I haven't even played the last two games, but I want some form of representation just for that OST. Even without being rearranged, every opportunity must be taken to get Christophe Heral's music in Smash Bros.
