Ah did not notice it. Must have been too busy cheering that Zororark was there and not playable.
To be fair, Sakurai didn't actually say anything about any of the Wonders being confirmed or deconfirmed. Going off what he said in the Miiverse post, we have seven trophies for the W101 IP. A series with that many usually guarantees a playable character to represent it (then agian, we didn't get any Animal Crossing fighters in Brawl, but that was more due to Sakurai having a hard time choosing a suitable one).
Could be another case of Sakurai-Brand Trolling™ at the surface.

Eh.Okay, really, just showing the trophy for Wonder Red means nothing. Fighters get trophies, after all.
Of course, either way, Sakurai more than likely knows how fans would interpret him posting a picture of a character's trophy so he probably is trolling.

Let the joy of love give you an answer! Check out my book!I'd lime like to note that, in the Pic of the Day he says...
Me being an overspeculative Smash fan, it's probably one of the former two. My fingers are crossed for them as an Assist Trophy, though.

Because it seems to suggest that he specifically isn't playable, I guess, and thus would make his playable reveal even more satisfying?
...Not that I think that's particularly likely. But with multiple Wonderful 101 trophies being included, it does give me more hope for other representation in the form of an Assist Trophy and/or stage.

Welcome to th:|A reveal as a trophy seems like a pretty unceremonious way to hype up a character's possible reveal, especially if it's not a popular request. Few people expected a playable Wonder-Red (I love W101 and still didn't really want him in) and his trophy appearance doesn't seem to be deliberate misdirection of any kind. Remember the Pseudo-Palutena moment from the Direct? I think he knew that she'd be counted out if she was first revealed as a trophy, so he trolled us with the ugly clone of her. The fact that Wonder-Red is being blatantly displayed here seems more like Sakurai's way of disconfirming a character rather than teasing for a possible reveal like with Ridley.
I hope that made sense, I'm tired and my thoughts are scattered.
What is a fandom? A miserable little pile of flame wars! 3DS FC: 0387-9377-7408 PSN ID: Raven King SageIt's the exact opposite though, it shows Sakurai thinks they're important. :/
You know, I've thought about how Sakurai should do a possible Ridley reveal, and it's basically this.
All takes place on several stages, however, they're fully rendered cinematics instead for the first part. It basically plays like a boss battle trailer, with Yellow Devil, first look at Master Hand and Crazy Hand, and then we cut to the Pyrosphere, where Samus battles Ridley.
But then, unexpectedly, a different winged beast comes out, and it looks like the Ridley we actually remember from before he got a training regime with Hulk Hogan.
The rest is just Ridley fighting, and the last scene is him squaring it off against Other M Ridley.
Pipe dream though. Ridley most likely isn't in.
EDIT: Beast Ganon as boss character, plox.

Yeah, that kind of reaction to Assist Trophies seems really absurd. Would they not feel insulted if the character wasn't included at all? Or would they just be insulted so long as the character they want isn't playable, because their own personal tastes are all that matter?
Like, I love Golden Sun and really want it to get a playable character. But if it doesn't, while I'd be disappointed, I'd understand that the the series is ultimately not an absolutely crucial part of Nintendo's overall history, and thus there's no reason to think it should be guaranteed a spot.
Heck, I loved The Wonderful 101 too, I was just well aware that there was little reason for it would get a playable character in Smash Bros 4, so I didn't get my hopes up.

Welcome to th:|I'd like Grovyle instead of Sceptile because of his design and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers.
"Yeah, it's a shame. Here we are in an underground cave with all these lasers, and instead of having a rave we're using it for evil."Wait, I've figured it out! The Wonderful 101 trophies are actually a hint that Hideki Kamiya (aka Wonder Director) will be playable!
He'll be revealed at the same time alongside Reggie.

Welcome to th:|
x6 That would be quite the treat for Mew 2 King, considering that he's a Ridley supporter.
Information about the Bullet Bill item.
Also, the main site currently has a picture showing the Polar Bear and Zelda up, which is probably Smash Run. No idea how this mixup happened, but eh.
Either of these could change, despite me posting the link.
Shadow?
