Are you saying this about Metal Face because you want him in? Or is it something else?

Do you have any idea what Metal Face is?
I mean, metal face would work if you (big Xenoblade spoiler ahead)
just use Mumkhar... but then why bother calling him metal face. Unless that's his final smash. In which case he's the perfect wolf clone /s

I've won at least one avatar bet with WiiRevolution, but I didn't have the heart to cash in. He just believes so hard that characters will get in even when they have no chance, or when he just thought about them getting in for the first time a few minutes ago. It's kinda adorable in a way.
Welp, that convinced me. Seeing how viable he is as a wolf clone with Ice Climbers' final smash just sold me on him being a shoe-in. They even have his voice recorded already.
"Fancy-Fanc-Fanc-Fanc-Fancy meeting you-Fancy meeting you here Monado boy. Fancy meeting you here Monado boy. Fancy meeting you here Monado boy. Fancy meeting you here Monado boy. Fancy meeting you here Monad-Fancy meeting you here Monado boy."
Can't wait.

Charizard is actually taller in Smash than his "real" size. Charizard is super tiny in Pokemon, just barely 5 feet. Lucario should be the size that Kirby is in the game (Lucario is 3 feet tall lol, he needs to grow an entire foot during his final smash), and Kirby should be inches high, but seems a few feet high.
But they all scale well because there's nothing to compare them to in their universe. In Pokemon, apparently everyone in the world is 3-4 feet tall if we go by the Pokedex's height numbers lol.
Which is why I mention Olimar. Because he does have stuff to scale him with (real life stuff), but he scales well so it doesn't matter.
Ridley (and Metal Face) have humans to scale them, so it won't be as easy to scale them down as it is to scale Olimar up.

Why thank you.
I just don't think that a shared stage would be so dramatically different, and the tease at the end just reminds me of Dark Pit tease and I don't think there will be a playable boss mode. I really don't care about him much, but it might make a very unique moveset now that I've thought about it some. Maybe Sakurai just really like Metal Face/moveset idea/Xenoblade, who knows?
I played around 13 hours of Xenoblade, so yes. He is a huge machine.
That can be shrunk down.
Fixed.
And what do you mean I believe characters can get in with no chance? Agnes totally has a chance! Dr. Luigi, Emolga, DKJR, Urban Champion all have chances!
The Witch from The Witch's House too. And don't forget Stella from Xenophobia!
I can't wait to prove yall wrong. It will be my greatest achievement. (About Metal Face, not the other characters I listed.)

I'm not sure if I should make a thread or not for this.
Remember this picture.
Yeah, it's the motivation that kept people going on to find more information in the data. People kept searching for more hints so they found some information so PushDustin found something in Smash 3DS data. I'm going to copy and paste the content that was posted in other forum.
All information should be credit to PushDustin.
Proof that the game has code to load character and stage DLC:
The shop will appear on the main menu. There is an extra Nintendo Network logo that I believe is unused.
In Japanese it will be called the "Notification Shop"
Also I think PushDustin found those following in Wii U Connectivity section. Take a good look at the bolded words.
Japanese
PushDustin's conclusion
I'm going to add my feedback on it. That would make sense why Smash 3DS' Download Package said that it required 2.1GB awhile the game that we downloaded were 1.1GB or so. I'm not saying that it would happens but who know.

So you don't. And that's why you're in the wrong here.
EDIT:
Very interesting stuff there, IntelliHeath. That "A Challenger Approaches" text is in a very interesting spot.
I mean, all it is is extrapolating dark pit trailer nod > playable dark pit.
That said, it's very wrong.
Also, I don't think characters will ever be unlocked EXCLUSIVELY by connecting to wii U. My guess is that they're FREE or EARLY if you connect a 3DS to Wii U, otherwise, you have to buy them. My Main concern is this: What if you have multiple 3DSes in the family? Does only one 3DS get the extra characters? If everyone does, what's to stop people from allowing any 3DS to connect to their Wii U to unlock free characters.
There's a flaw there, :/

??? I know that (Xenoblade spoilers):
He is a guy in a suit or something like that. Or is there somethng else? I basically already spoiled all of Xenoblade so you can post it if theres something else I don't know.
Also, glad to see more proof of DLC/Connect characters! I hope its announced in the direct, but it may be too soon to announce DLC. You never know with Nintendo.
"Challenges," "Notifications," and "Shop" are three separate entities. I'd post this in that old DLC thread, though.

I'd love if it meant we're definitely getting new characters with the Wii U version, but... the "A Challenger Approaches!" text could also be flavor for Custom Characters/Mii Fighter transfer, right?
Either way, glad to have further confirmation of the shop.

For people who still doubt that it's temple.
Someone suggested a good possibility answer in other thread. He said that it might be used for people to unlocking rest of secret characters for Wii U if you are already did for 3DS version.
Who know. *shrugs*

Putting them side by side, the Wii U version's drastically improved lighting really stands out. I can't wait to see the whole stage...
That's exactly
right. Which is why scaling him down makes no sense, because then the dude, who was also a human in shulk's world would be about 6 inches tall, so scaled to shulk, would be dumb. So using Mumkhar as playable would actually be pretty great, and have metal face be his final smash.
That's a good point! Wonder if you have to re-fight them, or if they just unlock.

I've learned not to trust the bones.
Just want to remind you:
Sakurai said:
Shulk was unlikely enough, so why would Metal Face be in?
Technically, they all have chances. They're just not really worth mentioning. Sure, Doshin the Giant might get in, but he would be one of the weirdest additions to date.
Isn't Notifications just referring to the Notifications that appear on the main menu? So the shop would probably just be called the shop?

Of course, your avatar is a Pikmin ghost, you have no bones. XD
I've been meaning to ask that, why is Shulk such a diiferent character to the others?

He's from an obscure, low selling franchise that has had a grand total of one game released so far and he's not retro. That's pretty different from every other character in the roster.
WiiRevolution1
Member
It doesn't matter how small it makes him, still think he'll get in.
Just shrink him down, thats the answer to life's biggest mysteries. And plus, Sakurai might just like the game/character alot. Who knows? We will find out by 12/31/15 if I win or lose, maybe even on the 23rd. :O
Lettuce just take a seat, sit back, and just sit ln our thoughts on Metal Face until he is confirmed. Seriously, in my head he shrinks down quite well. Then again, you don't want to be in my head.
KLatin Scelus

Oh, that's pretty neat.
I've heard great things about that game, so I'm suprised it's low selling.
Green Mamba

It did well enough for itself, but on an order of magnitude it's far and away the lowest selling franchise in Smash Bros. represented by a character.

Doshin is too big. He even has GIANT in his name.
Isn't the Mother series technically the lowest selling franchise? I thought Xenoblade surpassed 1 million across all regions?

I'll be going into the direct as unenthusiastic as possible.
That way if something big comes out of it my hype can just sky rocket.
While if not I can just finish watching and shrug my shoulders.

Pikmin are biological mysteries. They have a skeleton, yet at the same time they have plant-like features.
Let's not forget that Piranha Plants are vertebrates.
I'm imagining this but with human-sized giant mechs.
He can be shrunk down, just like Metal Face can!
/s
Doshin is my go-to joke character for new additions, for the record.

I love how we can still have so many questions this close to release when the 3DS version is already out.

Yep, that's one of few aspects that made me exciting for Wii U version. Less than three days to go.

WiiRevolution is convinced Metal Face is playable based on the trailer plus datamining info, and the fact he thinks they won't add a stage boss to Gaur Plains in the Wii U version. Maybe it's just an ongoing joke though.
Edit: Oh damn it. Looks like the post I was responding too was old.
Dude, Agnes is practically confirmed I don't know what you're talking about. Did you not see the leaks?

The gimped version ( :/ ) being out doesn't really mean much. Fortunately, I guess.

well duh, the two versions are supposed to be different

$40 to let me play 2 months early was totally worth it. I would be dying reading all the discoveries every day on here.
Right, but how different are they? There was a lot of discussion about this, and evidence is pointing more and more toward "really different". That's exciting.

WiiRevolution has completely wrecked my understanding of what's serious and what's not. I'm assuming you're joking, but just to be safe; those leaks were faked.
Some fun tidbits from the announcer answering questions:
-They told him to immitate Pat Cashman, the Brawl announcer, so I assume they couldn't book the original guy.
-They recorded back in April, so that would mean the E3 demo couldn't have been fully complete until at least then.
-Bowser Jr was a favorite of his to record
-He tried to give each character a bit of personality in calling out their name
-Can't say the names of any Nintendo-owned characters and won't break NDA about characters that may have been recorded.
-Isn't in the loop for the dev process, so he wouldn't be aware of what got in or didn't get in to the Wii U version.

So you've joined the dark side, I see.
3DS game was an interesting diversion, but after transferring over whatever I can I will probably unload my copy and get most of my money back for it.
:lol
Possibly the single upside to certain intellectual properties being purchased by Microsoft.
Alternatively, I guess Miiverse will be happy.
