I'll be uploaded in full to Nintendo's YouTube channel in fairly short order so you could watch it there instead and be all caught up before posting here.

Fuckin' A. Not only does it begin at the middle of the night and there is no way I am going to watch it then, but I have to go at somewhere in seven am so I have less than a hour to catch up on anything in the morning.

Only sometimes posts

In case anyone's interested, Brain Scratch Commentaries said they'll be doing a stream after the Direct is over, and I assume they'll be discussing about the Direct on it.

The same guy who allegedly leaked Wii Fit Trainer, Little Mac, Pac-Man, ect. has now said that Shulk, Palutena, Chrom, the Chorus Men from Rhythm Heaven, and "Pokemon from Pokemon X and Y" will be playable.

I'd be cool with all of them, but I'll be pissed if "Pokemon from Pokemon X and Y" is playable but not Mewtwo.

I predict: PALUTENA REVEALED! (as an assist trophy) MEDUSA REVEALED! (as a boss) DARK PIT REVEALED: (still a palette swap) And finally... T(H)ANATOS MAKES HIS HAMAZING ENTRANCE!

Only one I believe there is Chrom. I'd be amazed if he didn't make it in.

None sound heavily believable to me, to be honest.

If it was a real leaker, they'd have been shut down by now anyway. Taking with a high grain of salt and just going to go with "I'm a damn good guesser" at best.

...Well, if that does happen to turn out to be accurate, I guess I'd be okay with that roster...I'd still much rather have someone else representing Fire Emblem and I'd be quite disappointed to see no Golden Sun character, but other than that it's interesting enough.

The way Fire Emblem puts in its characters is weird. In Melee there was Marth and Roy. In Brawl Roy gets cut and Ike comes in.

In 4 there's still Marth but maybe Ike loses out to this new guy?

Palutena and Chrom are both likely, and I'd say Palutena is almost a shoe-in. Shulk has decent odds. Rhythm Heaven is possible. Pokemon is such a mess that I won't bother predicting beyond Jigglypuff.

Is the Direct being streamed anywhere other than the main site? It's better to have multiple open if one starts to lag.

Roy was actually supposed to be in Brawl. We have enough finished character data to prove that. So was Mewtwo and probably some others(Dixie also directly confirmed in the past). There was no real pattern ultimately to be found. It just looks that way without knowing any of the data.

Pokemon looks like it switched out anyone not named Pikachu and Jigglypuff for exactly two new guys. SSB 4 already broke this streak.

[up][up][up]Marth is really sort of the big legend in the series. Ike and Roy were just the most relevant and new main characters in the newest Fire Emblem games.

Chrom is the newest lord in the newest Fire Emblem so my bet is that he'll replace Ike.

Ech, why does the Smash series have to be so random with its character choices. It should keep everyone it has and add at least another ten characters every game.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Fire Emblem is likely to have 3 reps, and it certainly can get 3 if Star Fox can. Ike can coexist with Chrom/Robin/Lucina/Anna/*insert Awakening rep* easily. Not guaranteed, but easily possible.

Roy was a clone who nobody particularly cares about in terms of his character in Fire Emblem itself, so it was understandable to cut him.

Ike is a quite popular Lord who is distinctive from all of the others in several ways, and has a unique moveset in Smash Bros. I see no reason to cut him. I really dislike the idea of always replacing the second FE rep just because they're "no longer relevant".

Sakurai already explained the game's roster is too hard to balance if he just adds characters. He knew cuts'll happen.

I'd just be happy with Marth/Roy/Ike myself. Very nice array of choices. It doesn't need to be from Awakening nor does the latest really matter anyway.

Okay, so if my conversion skills are correct, this starts in just under 50 minutes. Did I screw up?

Well it'd be nice to keep Ike but given the choice between him and Chrom I'd go for Chrom.

Or maybe get Chrom and replace Ike with Robin.

[up][up]Yep, that's right.

[up]And if the latter, would you then have two FE characters to cut from the next Smash Bros because they're unimportant now?

My ideal is Marth, Ike, and Robin(F). I only support Chrom/Lucina if they can stance change to lances. Roy is bleh as a character, and almost every Lord would be more interesting than him. DLC at best please. If he's in, fine.

[up][up]Well unless we can keep all of them old characters from Fire Emblem I don't see why you wouldn't get the newest ones over the older ones. Barring big icons like Marth.

Being newest isn't that big of a deal. Being interesting is.
