@ikki5 I'm not sure why I still bother checking to see if events like this are headed to the maritimes. They never are!

I just had the base game pre-ordered, but when I arrived to pick it up on launch day (at EB Games), the manager asked me if I wanted to upgrade to the bundle. They had one extra bundle, as someone had just cancelled their preorder. I'm so glad I jumped at the chance and snatched that bundle!

I got super lucky when I went to pick up my copy. I had just pre-ordered the game and was planning on picking up the adapter and controller separately. When I got to the counter the cashier asked if I was interested in getting the bundle, as they had 1 person cancel their pre-order that morning.

@Pod :
The cables on the adapter itself are about 4 feet, and the cables on the new gamecube controllers are much longer than original GC controllers. The new ones look to have 10-foot cables.

I'm looking forward to trying all of the challengers, but Samus (not Zero-suit) is my main. Still hoping for Ganondorf, a Golden Sun character, and hopefully some unexpected new challengers.

The only reason I haven't picked up Golden Sun on the VC yet is that I was unsure if the sequel was going to be released as well. I absolutely love the series, but it'd be a shame to only be able to replay half of it on the Wii U.

@deathmetalkrunc Don't give up yet. I'm sure we'll get our Ganondorf/Demise

@Amateur That's what it looks like for now. The gameplay showing us Chrom was definitely a Final Smash and if you look closely you can see that he and Robin are trading blows against the opponent. Chrom is also not listed on the official SmashBros website.

You may want to update this article, since Chrom is the final smash of Robin. Also, there's two new challengers and a returning challenger. Not 5 new challengers.

@deathmetalkrunc Right? I've been waiting for the Ganon(dorf) reveal. Since they're doing away with clone characters, maybe they'll revamp him to dual-wield swords like in WW, or have him as Demise instead.

Any of: Isaac, Mike Jone, or WindWaker's Samurai Ganon would make me very happy.

Following the color codes, A and B keep their mapping, but X and Y become L and R? So what happens to the SNES/SFC shoulder buttons? Are we two buttons short here?

@HylianJowi Ah hah! That makes so much more sense

I think you might have meant Poe and Ghirahim... not Poo and Ghirahim

@Yosher Us Canadians would like to take part too, and also get shafted. I hear your frustration..

I'm hoping they DO change Cia's garb. Not for the sake of censorship, but rather to go with something more practical/realistic.

Here's hoping Sheik will be the next announced playable character! This game is looking amazing.
