Topic: Super Smash Bros. for Wii U - OT

It just makes sense to me. Everyone on Miiverse and the rest of the interwebs seems to predict the same thing: Isaac, Chrom, and Shulk, it seems like the perfect opportunity for Sakurai to do what he does best and give us the unexpected.

3 minutes... my guess is that it's the character reveal and then Sakurai talking a bit. I wouldn't get too hyped about anything else.

I'm going to guess it's Dixie Kong, for no reason.

I want someone unexpected though. Like the WiiFit trainer was.

I like Chrom and Shulk but dang.. just how many freaking sword wielders are gonna be in this game?!

I predict Kellam's going to be secretly revealed in the video, but no-one will notice.

He probably was playable in all the demos already, but no one even noticed him on the character select screen.

I really don't get the hatefor sword wielders. It's an exceedingly common weapon, ESPECIALLY in video games. What's wrong with representing a huge subset of fighting with a large number of characters? Out should I just start complaining about all the characters that fight with their fists or a gun of some sort?

I think it will be Shulk.. At the end of his trailer Shulk sees a vision of an other newcomer that he has to fight. Of course he can't recognize this character and we'll see just a shadow. (aka teaser)

Just an idea. :3

I have nothing against sword wielders in Smash... its just there might be ALOT of them in this game.

If the three rumored characters are really all the new characters left to reveal, I think they'll reveal one of the sword-wielding anime rpg pretty guys first, then the Chorus Boys and then the other one.

To keep the reveals varied.

Shadow... OH GOD NO PLS NINTY NO! Sonic is bad enough Xd

Little Mac was the 1 character in that list who I never lost as. (Not counting Palutena as she wasn't playable at E3) I personally think Little Mac is OP. He is really simple to play and as long as you understand his air sucks you will do fine. I think they made him so powerful because of how bad his air is but it makes him feel OP when you don't use any of his air.

A few things: Even if the Gematsu leak is 100% accurate and up-to-date, the still may be some unannounced characters that weren't in the leak.

Sakurai said we were nearing the bottom of the pile of VIDEOS they'd prepared for newcomers. I'm calling unannounced newcomers right now.

Finally and most importantly, spacies. Why spacies? Krystal. Why Krystal? Star Fox 64 3D launched on July 14th, 2011. Add to that one or two veteran reveals, being Falco and maybe Wolf, the fact that Star Fox U was at E3 and the fact that literally no one has even considered this yet, and it may just be possible. Besides, there appears to be such a lack of anything Star Fox in this game, so far, so a dump, especially after the E3 reveal that Star Fox U was in heavy consideration, would be well deserved and very welcome.

To bad he his already an confirmed assist trophy.

It's funny everyone swears each sword fighter is a clone of each other and yet the only real sword fighting clone out there is Toon Link I think Shulk will be fine (never played Xenoblade) he looks like he could have a lot of unique abilities Chrom.... Uh I think they could make him work have him be a in between character to marth and ike kinda like Falcon but less clone-y

I want to see Robin from Fire Emblem Awakening in the game that way we have another magic user and different gender designs.

I've said this before, I'd be up for this. Out of the three supposedly leaked characters, I honestly only care for the possibilities of Chrom making it. Again, we shouldn't expect anything too big. At least I won't...
Also, hello @Smash_Kirby; I noticed you just recently joined us. Welcome to NintendoLife. Feel free to introduce yourself at the Newbie Introductions thread here. We hope you enjoy yourself at the site.

Being honest I'd rather have Hector and Dunban instead of Shulk and Chrome.

And yet Toon Link is stronger than Link in Brawl.

idk the Palutena trailer was about three minutes long...
