It would have been nice if they had incorporated this into Lucina's moveset (or even Chrom's, while they were still considering him)....but nope! *clone engine activates*

I agreed. That's why I didn't posted last few rumors because it's full of it. Somehow it always find a way to be posted here.

The only reason Lucina is even in this game is because she can use a sword

Ganondorf looks pretty nice in the Wii U Version.
Very...fatherly.
Very...fatherly.
If one series actually adds interesting characters to itself and another doesn't, I don't really think its wrong for them to get more.
Nah.
Wouldn't mind more Fire Emblem characters though. Love the series, so the more the better. In terms of Kid Icarus, Hades is an absolute must. He's great!
In terms of other franchises, I can't really see us getting more Metroid reps. When it comes to Donkey Kong though, I wouldn't be surprised to see Dixie as DLC (though I want K. Rool more, I can't say it's very likely).

The perfect Donkey Kong rep...too bad SAKURAI hates Donkey Kong!
As long as the characters turn out well I don't care what series they're from. Why can't we have both new Metroid/Donkey Kong/"trapped in the 80s/90s" characters as well as more Kid Icarus/Fire Emblem characters again? The representation angle is lame.
Also, why are we talking new characters again?
Edit: Spear Lucina might legit have made me love her inclusion instead of feeling mildly apathetic to affably antagonistic about it. It'd also be the closest thing to having Marth and Caeda/Shiida in the same game too. :lol

Seriously, we really shouldn't acknowledge any of these leaks unless there's some evidence shown and not just some text posted on Smashboards/4chan/etc.
As far as Fire Emblem reps go, I'd probably go with Chrom. His model's fairly complete, and he'd be an easy character to add. Release him with a brand new character (like Isaac) in some sort of double pack. Though if he's not a clone, they could incorporate Class Change in his moveset, being able to toss Javelins would be pretty tight.

Incredible.
Personally I think it would be really funny to have Cranky Kong playable. He could have a pretty interesting playstyle with that cane of his!
A manakete would be...fascinating. If they could actually incorporate the transformations into the moveset, that is.
I would approve of Tiki.

Its because Fire Emblem and Kid Icarus has much better choices. It really doesn't matter if a series is "over"repped if they are all good choices.
Tiki was in the first FE aswell as FEA. I never played FE1 yet but she seems like a very important character. And I'm all for "minor" FE characters getting in. Bring on Tharja, Sumia, Tiki, Henry,and anyone else.bring them all on. ALL OF THEM.
Thats my fault. I post all the leaks here. I have too, its my destiny. To catch all the leaks is my real cause, I gotta be the very best leak poster, like noone ever was.
I actually didn't even post the Agnes leak. :O

I gotta say, I'm at the point where I feel Smash Brothers has pretty much every icon it needs at this point, so I really don't care about "representation" or how well-established the character is. Really my "wants" now are just personal favorites.
It's all about how interesting they can be, in terms of move potential, and I'm glad we're seeing Sakurai take a chance on a bunch of newcomers who haven't quite established themselves well enough.

At this point it might just be the only way that I get to wreck face with Lyn, Anna and Hector so why not? Nintendo should get chummy with ArcSys and let them do Fire Emblem Xrd or Ultimate In Ferox Arena.
Edit: I'm with Watch Da Birdie. Anyone coming into the roster after this game is really just those happy bonuses that could have jumped on at any point but either picked the wrong train and got AT'd or forgot the departure date.

Wouldn't Soul Calibur be a better fit?
Honestly, I couldn't pick between the two. My preference definitely swings towards 2D "air dasher" fighting games hence the suggestion, but I imagine a SC style Fighting Emblem game would be amazing.
Him bouncing on his cane like Scrooge McDuck would be amazing :O

Fire Emblem fighting game goes to whoever can best do justice to the critical animations.
I couldn't care less about what franchises are under or over-represented, honestly. I don't play franchises in Smash, I play characters. Therefore I want fun and interesting characters that I'd like to play. I'm reasonably franchise agnostic after all that. All the politics involving sales graphs and popularity/relevance polls to objectively and mathematically determine the ratio of what franchise deserve how many characters in what capacity is kinda silly, IMO.
Sounds too complicated for the 3DS though. orz
Tiki has like the third best case as a general FE rep in the game, heh. And jumping in and out of the dragon form would make for a pretty unique character.

Soul Emblem or Fire Emblem Arena would be the greatest.

As someone who likes SC no. Fire Emblem is all about really flashy and quick attacks which is far more guilty gear/blaz blue then it is Soul Calibur.
Apologies, but has this been answered? I'm not familiar with Nintendo's eShop retail pricing; I know digital Vita games are typically 10% off MSRP.

Fire Emblem The Fighting Game is actually CyberConnect's big announcement.
That would be disappointing, honestly. Cyber-Connect can make a pretty game, but they sure as hell can't make a fun one.

Stop posting that quote. It's fake. People kept telling you that it's fake so please listen to those people.
Edited: I've a feeling that you are one that made up the article. ;P
They nail fanservice, not gameplay. Reference-wise, Jojo's ASB is the most perfect Jojo game ever, but the gameplay is just so incredibly mediocre. It's depressing.
Real talk though: despite not loving Dynasty Warriors, I still think it's the best fit for a Fire Emblem crossover.
It's supposed to be from the latest Famitsu and no one has been able to confirm or deconfirm it yet.

The whole character roster needs a revamp.
Mario gets a buttload of reps because he's Mario, so there's always room for more Mario characters. Captain Toad needs in, jump or no jump. Wario has a mix of Wario Land moves and Wario Ware wackiness. Give him Mona, Jimmy, or Captain Syrup.
Zelda needs at least 4 reps but 5 or more would be more than acceptable (Link, Zelda, Ganondorf, Tingle, and some one else, not necessarily Toon Link)
Donkey Kong is huge, and needs at least 3 reps, but 4 would be better, and 5 only if they could make a decent villain, or get K.Rool relevant (Donkey, Diddy, Dixie, and Cranky)
Metroid needs AT LEAST 2, but 3 would be ideal, 4 if Dark Samus is a clone. (Samus, Ridley, a Metroid (would puff around like Kirby or Jiggly)
Pokemon should have 4 - 5 reps.. I get that it's popular, so go ahead and get a good mix of characters, Pikachu inclued. Jiggs has maybe overstayed her welcome, but there's room for a good mix here I'm sure.
Fire Emblem needs no more than 3 distinct characters, 4 or more if there are clones.
Kid Icarus gets 2 .. 3 including Dark Pit as a skin. That's all I have to say about that.
I'd prefer Eggplant wizard over Palutena or Dark so and so.
Pikmin needs 2 reps. 1 being Astronaut (Olimar, Louie, Alph, etc. . include them all as skins a la Koopa Kids) and 2.. a Bulborb! Include a Bulborb clone with slightly different attacks. Also, where the heck are the Pikmin assist trophies!? The creepy bird thing, the giant daddy long legs.. The Bulborb Queen. Amazing! Why not Sakurai?
Starfox ... I don't give a hoot what you think. The entire Starfox team is iconic. Starfox needs 4 reps, which shouldn't be too tricky, considering they'd all be clones of each other. Fox, Falco, Slippy, and Peppy. James McCloud as an alternate skin.
Punchout needs 3 reps.. Little Mac (not this Hajime no Ippo Mac either... real Mac), Doc Louis is a slower Mac clone who hits heavier and has his own Side B Bicycle move. 3rd rep would be Bald Bull, King Hippo, Sandman, or Soda Pop.
Kirby ought to have 3 to 4 reps. Kirby, Dedede, (drop Metaknight.. sorry) That Icy Walrus with the butt, and maybe that Wrestling Beetle miniboss.
F-ZERO needs Captain Falcon and one other character from that series.
Dr. Mario / Luigi clones with a slightly more Dr. Mario themed flavor.
Also representing Dr. Mario, Virus trio! Like Duckhunt in that they appear to be more than one character, but work together to perform moves. Can't be separated.
Everything else can be a one shot!
Duck Hunt. Ice Climbers. Chibi Robo. Some other blasts from the past. Etc etc.
Third party characters like Mega Man and Sonic would be DLC packs with 2 to 3 more characters each. Mega man would have Mega Man of course, with a Proto Man clone. Sonic would have Tails and Knuckles.
Bomberman, Simon Belmont, and Master Higgins would be rounded up in a single DLC pack. The DLC packs would also include 3-5 new songs.
Rhythm heaven DLC includes That white little guy. Moves would summon features and characters from that game, like one of the Smash Attacks being a Wrestler Pose that would blast opponents away, etc. The Blue guy and the Ribboned Pink character would be alt skins.
I bring this from the mountain... Like, from Yahweh, dudeskis.. Next time you think about making a new Smash Game, start with this as the plan. Guide 5 teams of men, each working on 2 characters per month. Have another 2 teams working on stages. Start working on it now, Sakurai.
K, thankx bai
