I'm guessing Nintendo is having an event to let some Youtubers preview it. Probably how Game Xplain is getting their footage as well.
Here's a distressingly common find in For Glory; the "let's get serious" Little Mac.
You fight a guy, and the guy's fairly easy first round. But come second or third round and, oh, guy's now changing his/her character; specifically he/she's bringing out the Mac daddy, and...Erm, returns vary.

I'm glad that I got the 3DS version. I love most of the new stages in the 3DS version and adore Smash Run. Plus, I'm looking forward to that CD and free Mewtwo. Also before anyone says that he's technically not "free" I was planning on getting both versions even before then so getting Mewtwo at no extra cost is just icing on the cake.
Honestly, not really. I didn't play as him often, and while I like Mewtwo more as a character than Greninja, not having him in the game doesn't bother me. Not having Snake though, as a Metal Gear fan, bothers me.
I don't even 'do' portable gaming anymore, so most of the stages would be poor references for me (I've never even touched Fire Emblem).

I've never heard of a significant character DLC being free, but it's not impossible I guess. They sort of emphasized that "making even a single character is a lot of work", so doing all of that work, coming up with a marketing ploy like that, only to toss him out for free later just seems convoluted.
I have.
I didn't say that. I said he's gonna be paid DLC, who will be free, initially, to people with both games.

I have a message from another time...You fight a guy, and the guy's fairly easy first round. But come second or third round and, oh, guy's now changing his/her character; specifically he/she's bringing out the Mac daddy, and...Erm, returns vary.
Hoo boy, those are a riot. Do that, and there's a zero percent chance I'll take you seriously anymore. That's why the few times I ever use Mac, it's after I've already won against that person at least once.
...I'd be lying if I said I didn't do something similar, though. I may not have a "let's get serious" Mac, but I do have an "I fucking hate you" Palutena.

"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."Skullgirls had free characters for a time because it would've taken way too much work to give vouchers to everyone that donated to the Indiegogo campaign to get all the DLC characters. They decided to just make them free for a limited time because everyone who cares enough will jump on the DLC early and it comes with the bonus of a ton of people downloading the characters when they come out. Granted, it's proven to be one of the most effective ways of handling DLC characters in fighting games and other companies have followed suit (like Atlus and Persona 4 Arena Ultimax) but that was more a byproduct than anything. But who knows.

Now you have no excuse Sakurai. Wonder Red or Wonderful 101 DLC please.
Makes me wish Arc System Works were in on that system too honestly.
Also does my Tekken Tag 2 thing count?
Are explosions science?
