By the way, for those interested, Melee is up first when EVO begins tomorrow.

Fingers crossed that we get some sort of reveal during EVO. Preferably a newcomer (and Lucina)...

Why would we get a reveal at EVO of all things? Especially when SSB 4 isn't even going to be there.

In fact, I think it's far more likely that we'll get one at Comic-Con instead.

You never know, especially with how unpredictable Sakurai (and Nintendo as a whole) is with regards to reveals. Remember Ike's reveal pre-E3?

There's a slot on Sunday right after Smash Grand Finals for "Award Ceremony and Announcements". You never know.

I'm going to be there live, by the way, so if they stream pool B21 you might see me lose.

What was so unpredictable about Ike being revealed before E3? A lot of us expected another veteran confirmation before E3. We just weren't sure who it would be.

It was unpredictable in the sense that it came at the end of May, about a week or so before E3, and most people thought that any other reveal was going to happen at E3. Never mind the fact that it was Ike, a character that many people thought was cut.

Not really unpredictable if people saw it coming at some point anyway.

I'm not expecting a reveal at EVO at all, but I wouldn't be surprised if there was one. After all, there has been some focus on and acknowledgement of the competitive Smash fanbase with For, especially during the Invitational.

Hmm. If they were to reveal a character at EVO, I hope they reveal Meta Knight still, and showcase how he's been nerfed. Or Ganondorf and showcase how he's been buffed.

Or Wario just to screw with everybody.

What would the chances be of Snake returning and Kojima was lying in that one interview?

"And showcase how he's been nerfed"?

There was something about gliding no longer being an option, wasn't there? That seems integral to Meta Knight's design. What's the point of wings if you can't fly?

[up][up] Kojima would've been under contract not to say Snake was playable, so he didn't have a choice but to lie if the character was.

Or he's telling the truth.

I don't see much of a reason for Sakurai to not want Snake back, but giving a near identical Final Smash to Zero Suit Samus is a bit strange. That said, it's really too hard to say. I'm entirely 50/50 on him coming back.

Shadow?

I'm far more pessimistic about Snake myself, he was my main in Brawl but I think he's gone. I see your point about him possibly having no choice but to lie, though, so I'll try to make an unbiased case for/against him sometime tomorrow.

Pit in specific has lost gliding. I dunno about the mechanic as a whole.

Peach's is (or at least is considered as) an entirely different mechanic, so I'd imagine that it's still around.

I'm pretty sure we've seen Peach in her SMB2 hover pose in at least one screenshot, and I'm pretty sure the Super Leaf has the same effect.

That time slot at EVO is probably for Mortal Kombat X.

I am indeed playing Marth. If I get my way I'll always be playing Black Marth.

One of the players in my pool is apparently a Melee It On Me guy, so I'm utterly screwed. grin
