I imagine Monday and Tuesday will be underwhelming.
Tuesday especially, if it's building up to some big reveal in the Direct, but I must not make assumptions.
On those polls; how come I never hear of Medusa being on them?
Am I just in the minority in wanting Medusa over Palutena as playable? I mean, she's Pit's first villain, she's got some nice villain dynamics with Pit, she's got a cool model, and a slew of interesting attacks, not to mention an obvious Final Smash.
I have a message from another time...There will be a massive 50 post update confirming Yoshi, Captain Falcon, Ness, Jigglypuff, Ice Climbers, Falco, Ganondorf, Mr. Game & Watch, Sheik, Mewtwo, Pichu, Roy, Young Link, Dr. Mario, Meta Knight, R.O.B., Ike, Wolf, Zero Suit Samus, Wario, Pokemon Trainer, Snake, Palutena, Medusa, Ridley, K. Rool, Dixie Kong, Takamaru, Chrom, Lucina, Robin, Lyn, Issac, Shulk, Kamek, Lip, Pac-Man, Krystal, Toon Zelda, Tingle, Mii, Bayonetta, Zoroark, Sylveon, Syrup, Kat & Anna, Simon Belmont, Nintendog, Reggie, and Sakurai's cat all as Assist Trophies.
I should note that not only is Palutena far more important than Medusa, is more interesting (subjective), has plenty of moveset potential, and has several obvious Final Smashes, but the series is also named after her in Japan. It would be like putting Ganondorf in before Zelda. Terrible idea. Medusa is a nice third KI choice, but only that.
Now, that first post? Only Monday. Tuesday will have another 50 pictures confirming Wonder Red, Professor Layton, Hector, Ephraim, Leif, Anna, Tiki, Bandanna Dee, Ghirahim, Impa, Midna, Vaati, Zant, Andy, Diskun, Rusty Slugger, Dillon, Geno, Dr. Kawashima, Louie, Captain Rainbow, Duck Hunt Dog, Porky, Petey Piranha, King Boo, Shantae, Slippy, Nester, Chibi-Robo, Saki, Cooking Mama, Dark Pit, Hades, Ghetsis, Genesect, Aegislash, Paper Mario, Baby Mario, Metal Mario, Shadow Mario, Honey Queen, Dark Samus, Adam, Anthony, Mona, Prince Sable, Black Shadow, Balloon Fighter, Yarn Kirby, and an NES as Assist Trophies.

I don't know why people always say she should get Palutena's Army when the Goddess Glam Blaster is clearly the superior choice.
Wednesday then reveals all previous Assist Trophies and all playable Mario, Fire Emblem, Mother, Star Fox, F-Zero, and Sonic characters from every game are Assist Trophies.
Thursday reveals you can upload your own custom Pokemon from any Pokemon game (including Red, Ranger, Mystery Dungeon, Snap, Dash, Nobunaga X Pokemon, Trozei, etc.) and make it a full Assist Trophy. He also confirms Poke Balls come from Assist Trophies.
Friday reveals that by getting 100% completion, every single Assist Trophy becomes playable, and you unlock 8-player battles.
In case your wondering, Tuesday's Direct just confirmed Cranky Kong as playable and spent the rest of the time examining everyone's noses.

Beta the Magnet Warrior confirmed as playable.

🏳️⚧️she/her | Vio Rhyse AlberiaThe final master stroke is surprisingly revealed on Saturday. In order to get 100% completion on the Wii U version, you need to have 50 Wii U games, 25 of which have to be specific games. And you need to get someone to buy a Wii U. This was all actually a giant marketing ploy to save the Wii U.
The 3DS version on the other hand will only have the currently announced characters as playable. And it's delayed to 2016.
I believe we're in "that" stage of what Neo GAF coined "The Smash Cycle
◊".

Would you prefer the Landmaster area?

My old Wii's still in relatively good shape, just the covers for the GCN ports were broken once, and one of the clips that they must lock into broke off. Likewise the original remote it came with is still going strong, but now I use my Wiigi Remote instead.
