Yep, Sakurai clarified on Twitter.

Well, looks like I won't be playing it very much. City Trial, while still fun on your own, was downright amazing with friends. As soon as I complete every Smash Run challenge I'll probably never touch the mode ever again. It'll be the 3DS's SSE for me.

Lol Tiny Cartridge just tweeted this as a joke and some no-namer got upset for some reason and started threatening that he/she would block people because it's apparently obnoxious even though it's obviously fake.

not enough spaces in the roster for EVERY DRAGON QUEST CHARACTER EVER
 
Evidence for version connectivity unlockables:

Wii U: Chorus Men, Ridley, Dixie and Mewtwo.
3DS: DHD, Bowser Jr, Dark Pit, Dr Mario

They actually fit into the 3DS roster nicely.

and can support DLC nicely.

Next, none of the above newcomers have trailers revealed. Its possible none of these characters have trailers at all, as they are version exclusives.This would explain a lot in this sense.

Nintendo needs incentives to sell both games. They do this often, with games like Pokemon series. Having unlockable characters by owning both versions is one of the best ways to push both games. Especially when they need to push sales on the Wii U. It would actually make less sense to not include a feature like this from a marketing standpoint.

We have not seen trophies of either of the 4 Wii U characters yet. I know Karate Joe doesnt have a symbol, but the series symbols are overlayed behind the text, and this can be an easy fix with a future patch. For that matter, the polar bear does't have a symbol, yet many believe ICs are a strong candidate for DLC. If you belief they can be DLC, then you'd have to believe having no symbol now means nothing at the moment.

For this to be true, Gematsu would have to be true. Gematsu failed to account for the 3DS exclusive characters. Its very possible the leaker only had inside information with the Wii U version's marketing.

Then we have the /v/ leaker, who claimed these characters are in the game. Please refer to this thread for more details. http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/633202-super-smash-bros-for-wii-u/70028141

Lastly....if this is true, then this means the 4 characters above are indeed in the games files. While 3DS hacking is difficult, it has been done, and I'd assume it wont be long before people start digging into the games coding. We won't have to wait long to know for sure.

Also Neo Zero said he heard the same as spainkiller

Animal Crossing characters are out of question, Sakurai said it.
Mega man is dead, not even Capcom wants him.
Who cares about Wii Fit?
Rosalina will be a Peach clone
All Little Mac can do is punch, his moveset would be boring
Why would they choose just one of the starters? And XY was announced after SSB started development
People only say Palutena because of a single game in 25 years of a dead franchise.
Miis are not characters, why would they appea in a game all about iconic characters?
Just because Namco is working in the game doesn't mean they will get a rep. Also Pacman is the worst character ever
Lucina? Why would they choose a character just to be another Marth? Chrom the only FE rep we will get
Robin doesn't even have a default form. And again, Chrom is in
Shulk is a one off character that no ones know. He is the worst character from Xenoblade
Dark Pit is an alt for Pit
Bowser Jr? Yet another Mario rep, if Waluigi is still an AT, he has no chance
Duck Hunt? what kind of stupid name is this?

dont worry, im also sad that snake is cut :(

I believe he's implying that Ridley can air grab since flying is a big part of who he is.
Also, the fact that it looks just like a character grabbing another character while one mashes out with a jump escape.

The clip only lasts a fraction of a second. Ridley didn't have time to do anything. Besides, when Ridley grabs Samus in Super Metroid he doesn't really do anything, either. He just grabs her and holds her in the air and drops her. Sometimes he might hit her with his tail or something but that's kinda random. And you should be able to break free of that kind of thing.
 
Gotta say I no longer am looking forward to this game. I was considering getting the 3ds one, but not bothering too. Might get the wii u version, at least I have project m still

Seriously between the leaks and the roster I am really not feeling this game at all. At least I have hyrule warriors this month.

Man, it's crazy. Before Mars this year my most wanted newcomer was Shulk, but I was certain he wouldn't get in. I thought he wasn't a big enough name and was too recent. And just a month ago or so I was sad because I thought how cool it would be if the dog from Duck Hunt would get in, but there was no chance in hell. And just recently I fantasied about playing as the Koopalings in Smash, but since there are so many of them so it wouldn't come true.

But now all those characters are playable. It's nuts.

I want this to be true so badly.

Any rumor/theory including Ridley as a playable character is pretty much instantly dismissed by me.

He'll never, ever be a playable character.
I swear I'll take a naked ice bath if it ever happens.

I feel the same way about City Trial. I'll be getting together to play it with friends, but I don't I'll make the time to play it. It's not as easy to just hang out with the group every Friday night now that we're all old washed up has-beens, lol.

I JUST READ. THROUGH. EVERY. PAGE. Hoping for something new. Clinging to that last grain. But there was none. And I gotta say. I'm fine with it.
The roster is great.
The stages are fine.
Heaps of challenges? Awesome.

The only thing that pisses me off is no online for Smash Run. That seemed to be implied, and a number of publications lied about it.

All in all though. I'm ready.

The gameplay is also a little disappointing, coming from a Project M/Melee/64 perspective.

I could see someone not minding a bad roster if they thought the gameplay would be fine or not minding bad gameplay if the roster was great, but if both are disappointing to you I could see people being a bit upset.

I JUST started maining wolf this week on project M. Now no wolf makes me a sad man child. At least I got my space goddess!

SMASH 4 US CAN'T COME SOON ENOUGH
 
Confirmed.

Not exactly useless, it has unlockable customs, trophies, as hell as Nintendo nostalgia up the ass and something fun to do for seven minutes a pop.

Mainly from enemies and music. As far as I've seen, it has the same problem that SSE had which was not including actual Nintendo inspired locations (and bosses. Really, I'd rather have the boss encounters Smash Run exclusive than have bosses on the actual stages)
 
Regardless of DLCs, I'm sure their trophies are already in the game and will be found soon.

Removing their trophies would be too suspicious.

We have to believe! Stay strong, Ice Climbers and Lucas! Talk up a deal with Rusty! Make your way in as DLC!


I'm really disappointed Dark Pit and Dr. Mario got new Final Smashes, but Lucina stuck with the Critical Hit without even a cut-in like in Awakening.

For those who missed Duck Hunt's final smash: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7764yfvVx7E

Also, remember guys, the challenge wall expands when you complete each one, so there is not only 35.

You have no idea how much I fucking love this.

Everything about Duck Hunt Dog is fucking perfect. His moveset not being limited to Duck Hunt but instead paying homage to the NES Zapper games as a whole is one of the most genius things Sakurai has ever done. It got me so hyped. I am going to play the shit out of this character.
