I wonder what the regular picture will be tomorrow, though. Probably another "let's show something from the past game but not tell us officially what it is, even if it is the same role" like he has been doing for whatever reason.

It's been more than a month without a single playable character confirmation. I hope he reveals at least 2 during the redirect. Maybe more.

Ah, I see the issue here. Irene is using "confirmed" by its strict definition. Everyone else is just saying stuff is true. Let's take Starfy. We all know Starfy is an Assist Trophy, and we're going to treat it as fact because we know it for sure. However, it technically hasn't been outright confirmed. So we know something is true, but we haven't confirmed it. It's the same thing essentially, but since we're being pedantic, the difference means something.

There, everyone happy now?

Man, this is like when people talk about wavedashing, and then it becomes arguments over the meanings of the words "intentional" and "glitch".

For my part, I think it's true that we should keep uncertain factoids off the articles - such as what Luigi's FS is - but saying things like "We don't know if Sakurai was referring only to random tripping" is going too far.

Why must the Direct be so very far away...

I hope a newcomer is revealed tomorrow.

Unless it's PAC-Man.

No. That's pretty damn vague since more than one version of tripping exists anyway. Also, considering Lying Creator, he could've meant anything. The only thing that is so far most accurate is "No tripping will return", and then some did. So we don't know what's going on.

Also, the article mentioned a twitter... which unsurprisingly, the original wording is unfound. They didn't even bother to screencap it either. It's a very unreliable article for exact information. It's vague for more than one reason.

FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK

Ehehe, on Pac-Man he's a case of "I'd rather not, but I can at least see where they're coming from if he is a playable character."

The internet will explode if Mii is confirmed. Personally, I think they're a good fit and deserve to be in Smash, but I don't really want them.

#39563: Apr 7th 2014 at 1:46:18 PM

I'd prefer them to be in in some way. I will take them as the new Fighting Team if necessary, though. I'd like them playable, and for online, just force us to use reasonable costumes only.

I feel like I'm one of those few people who'd actually like to see Pac-Man. Anyway, I expect to see Palutena or Awakening rep on the Direct.

With the way Pac-man is going, I'd rather see another Namco rep.

Pac-Man seems to be a Love It or Hate It character from what I've seen. I take relief in the fact they said Namco-Bandai (or Bandai-Namco, it's the same bloody thing) won't get any special treatment just because they're helping.

If he does make it into the game, I'll be a bit disappointed we didn't get, like, Bomberman or something, but I don't think he'll be a "this ruined the whole game, 0/10 no buy" type character, either.

[up]Sakurai played the Song of Time!

Whoo boy, I can't wait. I don't know why, but I really want something Kirby related; a stage, maybe a Meta Knight reveal, just anything to rep the pink blob's series.

Huh. So that was an interesting conversation I wound up missing. Oh well I guess.

Anyway, the timing for the Direct tomorrow kinda sucks, because I've got a class I gotta be at, but you can bet I'll be here as soon as I'm done, tests be damned.tongue

[up] Oh Pleasepleaseplease reveal Meta Knight tomorrow.

And also R.O.B.

I'd be really happy if they reveal both.
