Final Smashes seem a lot more practical - a lot of the unusual ones have been retooled to function more like standard beam supers and/or wide area of effect attacks.

Im a little miffed at the Ridley thing. Im glad to see all the new stuff. Also glad stuff was directly, absolutely confirmed. There might be fewer arguements about that stuff now.

Apparently Greninja is in. Thats cool. Wish I saw that. Still hoping for Mewtwo. No longer seeing it as likely... at all.

Im not sure how I feel about transformations getting the axe. Then again, I never liked being forced to switch to ZSS.

Ill miss Lucario's old FS, but his new one is suitably badass.

So... Any guesses for the competitive mainstays this time around?

Also, I just noticed... Rainbow Road is now Mute City, but EVEN MORE IN SPACE

Sugimori needs to draw the Mario cast more often.tongue

I don't really see any reason to worry for Mewtwo- Greninja looks to handle nothing like him, and it's not like he's a Poke Ball 'mon or anything.

@Zarek Correction: Sakurai is a total troll all the time. I love how he opened and close the videos with trolling (and how he opened it with "Yes, I'm still alive") and the Pseudo-Palutena trophy. Really, this video was the single greatest thing I've seen in a very long time.

HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE!

Also, Sakurai is a pretty cool guy, even if he is a massive troll.

@Pulse: True...although it still seems like it's been heavily implied that the Wii U version won't have major singleplayer content compared to the 3DS version.

Also, the fact that they have identical rosters is going to dampen excitement for the Wii U version by quite a lot, I think, since we'll already know every character that is playable in it and have been able to use them months before release.

By the way, I was laughing out loud at when Sakurai used Substitute. And it was clever foreshadowing for the last part.

It actually took me until the end of the video before I realized that that was him using Substitute, but I laughed when I caught on.

Hmmm, considering the change to Kirby's and Luigi's Final Smashes, I now have high faith that they'll fix up guys like Yoshi, Donkey Kong, Shiek, and possibly Falco if he returns.

Want to know more about Zero Suit Samus? Visit the official website for Metroid: Other M!

See, that one actually makes sense. From what I hear, ZSS gets a lot of representation in Other M.

Charizard is now its own character(so no Pokemon Trainer) and Greninja is in but not Mewtwo? Oh for fuck's sake Sakurai. Do you just enjoy pissing people off?

Not commenting on Ridley since it could go either way.

Found this funny thing from Smogon Facebook page:

"With Mega Lucario announced, will Smogon ban him on Smash?"

"Smogon: Competitive Brawl players already don't use Final Smashes, so my guess is that Competitive Smash communities will ban Mega Lucario."

@Enlong: She does, and can be played at the end of the game. She is also playable in Metroid: Zero Mission.

I also love the new design. It's so badass.

[up][up][up][up][up]"Boss characters can appear on other stages" + Ridley silhouette. I'd say that's kind of unambiguous.

If Sakurai wanted to hide Pokemon Trainer and the other ones, couldn't he make it so he's invisible during gameplay? He made three crates appear in a stage when they normally only appear specific to a type of stage. So I'm not so sure he's definitely solo. I won't deny that's a fair possibility. I'd like six Pokemon reps now. Jigglypuff and Mewtwo added. Got some good Gen rep already. It'd be even sweeter, if PT did return with a Gen II and III partner instead outside of Charizard alone. And 3 different Final Smashes isn't hard to believe too.

Shadow?

I know about Zero Mission. I was making a joke about that bad cutscene design in Other M.

[up] Pokemon Trainer was doomed when Sakurai said that multi-form characters, like Zelda and Samus, aren't a thing anymore
