I suppose it depends on the complexity of the character, as well. I can't imagine it took the standard length of development time for Ryu, for example.

[up][up]As far as I'm aware they did not. I think that every character had entirely new models, as do all of the 3DS characters.

I could be wrong, though.

Well a Direct was just announced for Thursday. We might be getting something then.

Re: models: I remember hearing Jigglypuff's 3DS model is recycled from X/Y with some coloring touch-ups, but as far as I'm aware none of the fighters have ever reused their models from older Smash games.

Re: Direct: Yeah yeah, we know the drill by now. I'm not expecting a fighter reveal, but that only means I'll be pleasantly surprised if there IS one.

I'm still not anticipating anything happening for Smash until next year, but I wouldn't be surprised if they announced something before the end of this one.

I think they at least have to mention Smash, if only for a "we're counting up the votes, please understand" line. Otherwise they're really going to be pushing the fan's goodwill.

Smash is the only thing I'm absolutely certain they'll have something of. It's been awhile since a new character, and the timing makes sense.

If they don't announce a new character, I may have to avoid other Nintendo-related websites for a while because no one is going to be happy.

But I really don't think it's out of the realm of possibility that we'll get a new character announcement.

Indeed. I'm kind of expecting a dedication to him in some fashion at some point during the direct. I feel like it'd be wrong if they don't do anything at least.

I'm keeping my expectations low as far as ballot characters go.

Still kinda hoping for Shovel Knight deep down though.

The problem with a ballot is that anybody who voted for somebody who does get made might get really sour about it.

Except maybe if they're free.

Personally I'm kind of excited to see the first Direct without Iwata. Sad to see him gone, definitely, but I think it'll be good to see things moving ahead too.

[up] Maybe, but that's kind of their problem? I guess?

People will be unhappy even if the character they voted for makes it in anyway. No one is ever happy for more than five minutes with Smash news gets out.

... Mario?

Bowser? No wait, he "always sucked and still does"

The fact that Smash exists?

I love Smash, but the fandom sometimes...Sakurai could make Luigi's nose bigger and a group of people out there would be complaining.

I'm not going to lie, I want Shovel Knight in just to see all the complainers come out of the woodwork over how he "Stole ______'s rightful place on roster."

I didn't even notice a fandom until Melee.

I liked Smash before it was uncool! ;p

At this point, I'm not really going to be disappointed with whatever characters we wind up getting. I'm just glad we're getting new characters. Sakurai could say that Baby Mario and Luigi are going to be in the game and I probably would still get them.
