[up] No. Because he didn't say they were all the newcomers.

Rosalina also showed up, someone not on his list.

He only listed a bunch of them.

I'm not throwing in with that leak until we see Chorus Posse revealed.

Even then, there's always the educated prediction angle.

I have a message from another time...

I can imagine hearing this in Smash now, for sure.

The guys on the Nintendo Treehouse Live stream today revealed that there are still characters who are so secret that only a select few people are even allowed to see them (they were joking about having to work in a closet).

Wait, so are they being serious about that? Huh, I wonder which characters those could be.

Just got back from the Smash-Fest with tired feet and armfuls of Nintendo Swag. In addition to playing the Wii U version we also got to sample Smash Run while waiting in the queue!

The gold coin is actually a preorder bonus and can be picked up with the game, but there was a table of Nintendo promotional merchandise that we got to take home. My personal favorites are the Mario Kart 8 checkered flag and the giant Animal Crossing pin that resembles one of the metals you earn in New Leaf. There's also a Smash Bros insignia pin that's pretty slick.

I was lucky enough to be part of the last group that was allowed 2 matches as the line was getting unwieldy. Little Mac is so satisfying to play as. All in all, I enjoyed the experience. It was like attending a mini Nintendo E3 event.

So I just got back from one of the Smashfests. Thoughts so far:

  • Playing Smash Run is extremely hectic, and the end battle is really short. Like, around 1 minute long. Playing on he NSMB2 stage was hectic fun, and Little Mac was surprisingly beastly to use.
  • They made a new rendition of the Smash 64 menu music for the menus in Smash U. It's orchestral now, and it sounds AWESOME as a result.
  • Mega Man is very tricky to get used to, but definitely worth it if you can remember what move is triggered by what. I got all the way into Sudden Death with him (against ZSS).

I went to Smashfest, but it ended while I was still on line.

Wasted two hours of my life for nothing.

I got there at 5:30, and didn't get to play Smash U until 8:10. However, they had officials moving around the line with 2DS units demoing Smash 3DS.

Also I got a shit-ton of tags for Streetpass as a result.

I'm still really sad that my local Best Buy didn't do Smash Fest. The closest one is in Sarasota, I think, and that's over an hour away.

Also, word of advice for anyone going to an event like that: get there an hour or two early. You'll get all the best swag and first go at the game. In the last event Nintendo had, this other girl that got there super early and I even got bonus swag for getting there so early.

Aside from living far from the nearest Best Buy hosting an event, I don't want to get used to elements that are subject to change!

I kinda have to wonder what Palutena's basic skill set is, since hers are completely different instead of minor variations.

I tell ya, waiting in line for three hours to play two minutes of Super Smash Bros was soooooo worth it.

Sakurai's reaction to that one guy at the end seemed a little jerk-ish in a "Cool story, bro" way.

Scalding FLUDD, eh? Very useful-sounding. And he can also trade out his punch for a higher jump?

Watching the roundtable...

Is it wrong that I find Sakurai cute for a 43-year-old? Sometimes, I honestly think that the Japanese give themselves higher ages so they can be complimented for looking so young.

I'm liking the look of Mario's custom moves. I will try them all.
