You could have at least posted the Ridley statues.

Trolling to that level? For Sakurai, it must be Wednesday.

I suspect it's built off of one of the earlier stages in Uprising - like maybe that colosseum in the background is where Pit fought Twinbellows' resurrection in Uprising (I don't think that would count as a spoiler, since that is stage 1).

Though the glowing wings behind the Palutena statue are interesting. Maybe it's Palutena as a stage hazard; maybe it's some other deity. I suspect it's dropping a hint, and Sakurai is giddy with the idea of people speculating on it.

It seems pretty clearly to be the Skyworld from Uprising. The boss of Chapter 21 was fought in that coliseum, too.

I sure said that!

Sometimes I wonder if Sakurai ever lurks around random internet forums and reads Smash-related discussions during his free time...

If that leak was a real leak, you can bet he knows about it. If it's not a real leak, then it's all a big coincidence.

Theories are going around that it was Sakurai himself that made that leak.

Wouldn't put it past him to do such a thing.

Link's mentor in Spirit Tracks, who is also a sort of reincarnation of Tetra's second-in-command from Wind Waker. He replaces Conductor Link in the ST stage if T.Link is already fighting on it.

Apparently he's a Royal Engineer, and he replaces Conductor Link when Toon Link is on the Spirit Track stage.

Even if it wasn't a real leak, I'm sure he knows about it. This is hardly a coincidence, and I'm sure he or someone in his office would have heard about it by now.

Sakurai seems like he's into social media, and I'm sure people have been pestering him about this on twitter. On a note related to the pic, anyone else find it interesting that he doesn't refer to the statue as "Palutena" and only refers to it as the "Goddess of Light"?

All that means is that she could be playable. It just makes it seem more probable she is.

Not that she's a bad choice, but I want more villains/antagonists. Melee/Brawl had a small list, but at least had some.

Shadow?

#34619: Jan 29th 2014 at 10:52:37 AM

So far there's Bowser, Ganondorf, Wolf, Dedede, Wario, Meta Knight (some of them are more antiheroic but eh)...

Maybe Mewtwo counts.

I was hoping someone would make an Alfonzo pic.

Mewtwo was implied slightly to be a villain(and he does sound like one via voice acting) due to Event 51 at best.

You could argue Jigglypuff is one since she's based upon her Anime self, who is seldom a "protagonist". But yeah, Mewtwo was technically the villain of the first movie.

Anyway, 64 only had one via Giant DK, who was based blatantly upon the first version in the game titled Donkey Kong.(keep in mind that Donkey Kong Country itself implied Cranky Kong was that specific version of DK) Also, he was an unplayable boss, so...

That leaves Melee who gave us two(and arguably three) villains. Brawl gave us(sometimes technically... for all of the new ones, anyway) Wario(villain at first, and does act like one in the SSE, to be fair), Wolf(he's not evil later on in the Star Fox universe, but eh, close enough), King Dedede(SSE aside), and Meta Knight(SSE aside). King Dedede does appear to be a villain at first in the SSE due to him trying to collect Trophies like the other villains do.

I just hope For has some. It doesn't have to be Medusa, either. Just some new ones. At least 2.

Shadow?

What about Sylux from Metroid Prime Hunters? He seemed to be one of the more important hunters from that game and he really hates Samus.

There should be more Metroid representation.

If any character from Hunters was going to get into Smash, I'd say Sylux or Weavel has the greatest chance. Though, Sylux would be more likely, given the theory about the Prime 3 ending.

I want Rids, not a hunter.

Hunters was kinda lame anyway, even if the eponymous characters were cool.

I liked Hunters...and the hunters. They each had their own weapons and transforming abilities and they were color coded.
