If Nintendo is set on more Smash Invitationals, the next perfect opportunity they'd have would be at the games official launch. There were Gamestop tournaments when Brawl came out, I could see Nintendo doing some kind of Smash Launch Invitational when the new one comes out.
And, if they held off until the Wii U version's launch, it would give people a chance to get accustomed to the game, too. While it probably won't be quite the same, it would certainly give them more of an opportunity to get set and figure out how to play and who they're good with for when the console version comes out, and make the most of the delay between launches.
I have a feeling there's going to be two tier brackets this time: Vanilla and Customization Allowed.
"It's liberating, realizing you never need to be competent." — UltimatepheerIt could simply be a stationary tornado with a small suction effect, where the placement of the FS would (once again) be vital.
"Tell them to shut up and have some faith in me." - dead flashback guySeriously, the only newcomer? We have enough boring non-Roy sword users already. Ugh. Good thing I don't trust leaks.
I wouldn't mind him getting in, personal dislike aside. But I definitely don't want him to be the last newcomer.

"It's liberating, realizing you never need to be competent." — UltimatepheerYeah, I would riot in the streets unless Chrom came with a huge disclaimer stuck around his neck like "SORRY ABOUT THIS, WE'RE STILL WORKING ON RIDLEY AND ISAAC AND COOL CHARACTERS LIKE THAT FOR DLC LAWL".
"Blow your mind" more like FREAKING QUOTE, AMIRIGHT?!

"It's liberating, realizing you never need to be competent." — UltimatepheerWere people really angry that Greninja uses Pokémon Speak? Man, that's stupid. Not only does every Pokemon but Mewtwo and Lucario use it, but why should it even matter in the first place?

"What's out there? What's waiting for me?"I get the feeling the Chrom hate is primarily a result of people who've never played Awakening so they just see him and assume he's just a complete Marth clone.
Which, fair enough I suppose. I felt the same way about Ike when he was announced for Brawl, but I didn't raise a fit everytime somebody mentioned him as a possible character (like some people I could name but won't.....)
x7 It wasn't going to be just mine. Moreso of who would be put in the game. Like I know that some characters I'd really want would be in, like K.Rool. But there'd also be characters that I don't care for, like Chrom.
Do you guys think that all characters revealed will be our starter characters? Aside from possibly the third-party reps.
