Three things:

1. What's the score on the Challenges progress? Can anyone pinpoint how near we are to getting all 70?

2. Have we seen Mewtwo, Isaac, Dixie Kong, Ridley, or Chorus Kids trophies yet?

3. I had the most horrible dream the night previous, I just recalled. Someone unlocked Bowser Jr., and his Koopaling alts were just him riding on the Koopalings' backs.

Oh man I had this weird dream about Smash4. Lucas, Wolf, and Ice Climbers got cut while they brought in Dark Pit and Dr.Mario. Alot of folks were freaking out including myself. Imagine Ice Climbers getting cut, lol. Can't wait for the roster reveal though.

So for the returning unlockable vets' Final Smashes, I've got:

Dr. Mario: Pill wave version of the Mario Finale (Doctor Finale?)
Falco: Landmaster (ugh)
Ganondorf: ???
Jigglypuff: Puff Up
Mr. Game & Watch: ???
Ness: ???
R.O.B.: Awesome giant laser blast thing
Wario: ???

Can anyone enlighten me as to Ganondorf's, Mr. G&W's, Ness's, and Wario's Final Smash? Are any of them new or are they the same as in Brawl?

I was just listening to some Mother music and listen to the Eight Melodies and then go straight into that Pac-Man Club Mix. I may have some whiplash.

Ganondorf's final smash is Beast Ganon. I'm not sure about the other ones.

If you count Mii's as 3, there is no trend.

Brawl has 18 newcomers in that case.

  1. Zero Suit Samus
  2. Diddy Kong
  3. Pit
  4. Meta Knight
  5. Charizard
  6. Squirte
  7. Ivysaur
  8. Ike
  9. Snake
  10. King Dedede
  11. Wolf
  12. Lucario
  13. Sonic
  14. Wario
  15. Toon Link
  16. R.O.B.
  17. Olimar
  18. Lucas


Smash 4 would has 17:
  1. Rosalina
  2. Bowser Jr
  3. Palutena
  4. Robin
  5. Little Mac
  6. Greninja
  7. Duck Hunt
  8. Villager
  9. Wii Fit Trainer
  10. Dark Pit
  11. Lucarina
  12. Shulk
  13. Pacman
  14. Megaman
  15. Mii Gunner
  16. Mii Swordsman
  17. Mii Brawler

Clearly not a pattern.

If the WiiU-3DS cross console thing turns out to be true,
Smash4 would have 4 extra newcomers.

I do love how Sakurai thought a recolor of Pit was a better addition than Wolf or Ghirahim or Black Shadow or Ridley or K. Rool because D.P. was in a game he made.

Can't wait to read all his post-game reasonings. I'm sure they'll be eloquent and well-thought out, and I'll disagree with every single one.

Dark Pit was probably the easiest clone they could add.

Cool, thanks. I figured that one would return; it's really fitting for him. I'm fine with Mr. Game & Watch's too, but I'm kinda hoping Ness and Wario have new Final Smashes.

Just tweak Ness' final smash to not be avoidable by literally just standing in one spot, and I'll be fine with it.

Patiently waiting for my Megaman and Xenoblade Music.

That Pacman mix might be my current fave.

Mute City and Id~Purpose songs are great to hear as always.

Not really feeling Green Greens though :/

I think we should all get together and send copies of Donkey Kong Country, Metroid Prime, and Wario Land to Sakurai so that he knows where to take inspiration from next.

Pac-Man mix is good, but it's not Championship Edition DX+ good.

If there's no Pac Rainbow I might actually hurt someone.

It kind of confuses me that people are thinking Doc, Pitoo and Lucina took spots away from other characters when it seems much more likely that they were just quick 'n dirty additions they put together after the fact.

Michelangelo painted the Sistine Chapel. Yabuki turned off voice chat in Mario Kart races. True artists of their time.

Yep, and he's actually popular. Sakurai doesn't need to please Smash fanatics because they're going to buy the game anyway lol.

Dark Pit existed as a fully voice-acted costume, like Alph or the Koopalings, as did Doctor Mario and Lucina.

Then late in development they bumped a few costumes up to full characters.

Wolf, Ghirahim, Black Shadow, etc etc etc didn't exist in any form at that point so they didn't get bumped from 'costume' to 'character'. It's pretty simple.

Didn't the Kritters get in? And half of Samus' alts are inspired by Prime, no?

Oh, no, I forgot. Sakurai is a biased troll-y troll-troll.

I'M FINISHED!

Um exCUSE me Sakurai but CLEARLY the best choice for Smash Bros would be my fav niche character HOWEVER you are clearly INCOMPETENT and
The shoulder charge being absent is news to me. This whirlwind mix of amazing and awful Smash news is perplexing.
