Who do you hope is getting announced tomorrow, /v/?
>>253020239
>Oo who is it going to be
>ANOTHER NINTENDO CHARACTER
WOW
13:32:00 to go
>>253020542
Well no fuckin shit sherlock.
>>253020542
well anon it is a nintendo game
The last couple of announcements have been nothing and uninteresting, I don't care who it is just as long as it creates massive hype like Megaman did.
Can't wait for it to be not Shulk.
>>253021324
this would be awesome
Hopes and Dreams tier for me: Wonder Red, Custom Robo, King K. Rool
>>253021324
Please, Samurai. He even got a 3DS got not that long ago.
>>253021151
Who could ever generate that kind of hype?
>Ridley
>Snake return / Big Boss
>A niche character
>A character from an old 80s Nintendo game that everyone has forgotten
Crash Bandicoot.
Retro obscure NES rep, Chorus Men, or K. Rool
>it's gonna be Chrom instead of Robin
>instead of a moveset based off the many classes he has access to, it'll just be sword, sword, sword
It'll be someone absolutely no one asked for.
>yfw it's inevitably generic weebshit swordman
>>253020239
Raiden
>Hope
Isaac
>Expect
Someone else.
Everyone is going crazy over Shulk being revealed, but /v/ is always wrong about everything with these reveals.
The big one, i just want it to be over with. Doesn't matter if he's a boss or a playable character, i just want a reveal.
It'll probably be shulk or chorus men though.
>>253023347
One of these
A man can dream.
>>253023145
Good thing it'll actually be Shulk, then.
Why hope? We already know it's Shulk.
>>253023481
>tfw it's palutena again
>>253023270
mah nigga, im not the only one.
>>253023270
>>253024402
But he was in Sony Smash already.
>>253024227
>Why hope? We already know it's Shulk.
There is nothing pointing to it being anyone at he moment
>But a Xenoblade dev retweeted the announcement.
Nintendo devs have retweeted announcements they were not involved with many times in the past.
>But his VA is working on new stuff.
That's still not a guarantee its for Smash.
>>253020239
male/female villager exists
a man can hope
>>253024692
It won't happen
>>253024531
a man can dream.
>>253024692
Would make more sense than fucking Chrom.Therefore, they're deconfirmed right off the bat.
>>253024692
Shulk and Fiora look pretty weird here.
>Post yfw Diskun is announced as a newcomer
>>253024147
Case in point, fucking retard
>>253024561
I do find it funny how everyone seems to have settled on it being Shulk as if we ACTUALLY know it's going to be him.
It'll make the actual reveal way more intense either way.
At this point I trust the gematsu leak. Hope Chrom isn't too boring.
When does the stream take place?
Mach Rider
>>253025031
who? Bayonetta?
What time is the stream and where is it?
It's going to be Ridley.
>>253025219
He's too short for the cap to end up in his ass.
>>253025213
That's not Mach Rider on the right.
>>253025148
Didn't Monolift Soft or one of the main people behind Xenoblade retweet the reveal announcement? they've only done this for Directs when X was going to make an appearance.
>>253020239
DO IT SAKURAI, SAVE HIM TOO.
SAVE VIDEOGAMES.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9LJShTu5FQU
>>253025031
I'd fucking love this.
Professor Layton, but all signs seem to point to Shulk
>>253020239
That it isn't anyone for the Gematsu leak so we can talk about characters who aren't Shulk/Chrom/Choir Boys.
sakurai would totally fucking do it, too.
It's going to happen.
I really hope it's Ridley, i want to see /v/ go down in flames.
But if ridley is playable he'll probably be a secret character.
It'll probably be the chorus men or shulk.

People have been saying all day though that this one guy from Monolithe apparently retweets everything Nintendo does.
I never even played his game, but he seems alright
>>253025516
I don't know why everyone hates Metroid around here.
>>253025394
but anon, it is.
I'd fucking cream myself if it was Shulk.

No, we're going to get an anime swordsman.

>>253025689
Nope
>>253025676
Other M introduced shitposting to the fanbase.
So question:
Realistically, what would happen on /v/ if Ridley were confirmed to be playable?
I'm not a ridley supporter, nor do I care if he's playable or not. I think he's going to be a stage boss. But I really wonder how /v/ would react.
Hope?
Pic related.
Expect? Shulk, Chrom, or Chorus Kid, but it's probably going to be Shulk.
>>253025724
But Mach Rider and Mike Jones are both getting in.

>>253026137
How could it introduce shitposting when /v/ wasn't even a thing at the time?
>>253025401
They did, but I think some other devs did as well. Platinum, for example (if I'm remembering correctly)
The evidence isn't very solid.
>>253026137
No, just Other M.
Before the fanbase was able to discuss the whole series with little to no shit flinging.
>>253025971
Ridley has been a talking point since Melee, and has been a source of arguments since Japan Time. If Ridley was confirmed playable /v/ would literally be /v/ - Ridley for 12 hours straight.
Pardon my ignorance, but what did Reggie mean when he said, "No Johns"? From what I gathered on Google, it's some sort of in-joke in the Smash community.
>>253022384
Actually they could do Banjoe and Kazooie/Tooie really well.
Well, they'd definitely be aware of the Gematsu leak by now. If it's true, it would definitely be in their best interests to announce a character who isn't on it, especially considering that so many people seem a little turned off by the kinda boring safe bet characters that were the E3 reveals as well as Shulk and Chrom. I hope it's something we're not expecting and not just fucking swordo number 6.
>>253020542
oh my god I'm going to be so fucking pissed if this is the case
>>253020239
Mr. Game and Watch.
>>253026382
No bullshit excuses when you lose
>>253021693
I like your taste.
>>253026195
It really does suck. I mean I unerstand why Nintendo wants to include newer characters like WFT and Greninja to appeal to the younger fans, but still.
>>253026382
No excuses for being shit at the game.
>tfw every character I didn't expect was a disappointment
>>253026478
>zero when losing his first stock to wizzy under 15 seconds on PM
>>253025615
He is alright plus his move set would be sweet.
Even completely disregarding the leaked roster, I will be honestly shocked if it's not Chrom.
>mfw it's Charlie
>>253026256
Yeah, I know he's never getting in.
>>253026382
When did he say that, anyway?
>>253026423
>Well, they'd definitely be aware of the Gematsu leak by now. If it's true, it would definitely be in their best interests to announce a character who isn't on it,
They could've done that at E3 and instead announced 3 characters who were.
The reason they don't is because they don't have someone who isn't on it to reveal
>>253026593
Yea it's totally like they didn't include classic Mega Man or Little Mac or anything.
Darn Sakurai pandering to the kids.
i really hope it's gold pink rosalina or child link
>>253025971
Something like this times a billion.
>>253026757
>Only two newcomers not pandering to them
At this point, any character other than Shulk or Chrom will be alright with me.
They're just such boring choices and I'm already expecting them.
Guys, listen, how about this:a group of metroids as a single playable character
>>253020239
I know it isn't going to happen, but still.
>>253026894
>like WFT and Greninja
And also there's the oldest one of them all Pac-Man, totally pandering to the kiddies.
>>253026894
Pac Man
Villager
>>253026195
At least the game will reference all of those things in some way. Brawl was really good about having a ton of Nintendo references from small shit to stuff as important as ATs and Stages.
With Sakurai you just have to realize that every cloud has a silver lining.
>>253026757
What I meant is that Sakurai tries to cater to both new and old fans, which is fair.
It sucks for the older fans because they have favorite characters like K.Rool and Mach Rider that they've wanted to be playable for a long time.
>>253026195
>Shulk will be in Smash
>>253026913
>Every button command leads to a grab/grapple
>>253027043
Kids know who he is, he even has the Ghostly Adventures in case they don't. Really though he's less pandering and more a shoe-in because Namco's involved.
>>253027057
Are you implying kids don't love Animal Crossing?
It's going to be fuckign Bayonetta.
Screencap this shit.
>>253022384
>Mumbo gets revealed as an Assist Trophy
>Randomly casts on of his spells from Tooie, like summoning a golem to kick some ass, or making everyone giant
>>253027223
Nah, m8
Kids love Call of Duty nowadays
BAYONETTA WONDERFUL RED AND OKAMI PLEEEEASE
>>253027082
He can't just pander to oldfags.
And there's more likely than not going to be another retro character. Takamaru's game just now got localized.
>>253027238
Honestly, the thought of her being playable has crossed my mind before.
She'd be totally out of left field and would be pretty damn interesting.
I could definitely get behind it.
I'm really hoping Nintendoland is at least a stage though.
anything not dark pit
its gonna be dark pit
>>253026913
It's too bad that they've said no morphing characters this time around because a metroid that goes through its stages from Metroid 2 would be alright.
>>253027149
As someone who didn't buy the weeb-game everyone everyone was in a tantrum about, why should I care about him being in smash. What makes him interesting? I am actually asking.
>>253020239
since something important and championlike is needed perhaps pic related will join smash
>>253025971
> /v/ - Space Pirate HQ
>>253027295
Not exclusively. Plenty of kids play Animal Crossing and just about everyone knows who Pac Man is.
>>253026467
Bald Bull wearing a ski mask?
>>253027412
His sword is kind of cool I guess.
I liked Xenoblade, but Shulk himself is just a regular old anime-styled protagonist. He's nothing we haven't seen before. That's why I'm opposed to his inclusion.
>>253027486
Yup. There was this arm wrestling arcade game from Nintendo and one of the opponents was that guy. After beating him there was a small minigame of removing his mask and the announcer just goes "BALD BULL...?"
>My face when Snake is announced
It's not going to be Chrom because we have Ike and Marth, Chrom will probably be a secret character. Not to mention that a third fire emblem rep probably doesn't deserve having a special reveal livestream just for him.
Chorus men and Shulk are the ones left then, two reasons for this, one is that they're new franchise representatives, two Rhythm heaven is very popular in japan, or at least /v/ says it is and /v/ would never lie.
Or it could be an entirely different character that we don't know about, however any other character would probably be secret character material.

The game is fantastic, definitely worth a play. Good story, likeable characters, good puzzles.
And he'd be more magic than swords if they did him right.
Shrek confirmed
Neutral B is the Gun slot. Which includes
>Basic Gun- A standard blaster shot. Damage at around 12-20%
>V-Laser- Less damage, but fires at a 45 degree angle both upwards and downwards.
>Dragon- High damage and homes in on opponents, but moves at a slower pace
Side-B is the bomb slot.
>Standard Bomb K- A bomb that knocks foes towards the ground. Fires in an Arc
>Burrow Bomb B- A bomb that blasts the foe upward. Can be placed in the ground to trick enemies
>Wave Bomb- A bomb that fires towards the ground, setting off a trail of explosions in the direction the bomb was fired
Up B is the dash attack. In Custom Robo the dash attacks were different based upon the robo chosen, but it's easier to change out the dash attacks instead of basing it off of the leg parts
>Shining Dash- A quick dash that launches the player in the direction they hold the left stick. Can stun foes on the ground for a quick moment. >Grappler Dash- A slower dash that deals more damage with knockback.
>Vanisher Dash- The player disappears for a quick moment in a teleport move that deals very low damage but is hard to hit.
Down B are the Pods. These are pods that can be set up around the field to trap foes.
>Standard Pod- A standard pod that floats in the air. Explodes after time. Can deploy two at a time.
>Spider Pod- A pod that scurries around the stage slowly. Will rush towards a foe if they approach it.
>Ground Freeze Pod- Being hit by this pod will freeze the opponent for a few seconds in place, letting you get in a few hits.
Final Smash is a full barrage of all his main weapons. The Final Smash changes based on what moves are selected.
You know you want it /v/
>>253025971
Every single thread would become Ridleytime for at least 48 hours. The shillquisition threads would be overrun. The Dwarf Fortress threads would be Ridley Fortress. Dark Souls would be Solely Ridley.
Sora would be nice, even if he uses the stupid cards from Chain of Memories.

Screencap this post.The trailer begins as a reveal for the Wii U version of Warlords of Draenor (coming to all 3 consoles though) - and at the end, the Smash logo pops up. Blizzard's cinematic team lent some help to Nintendo for the trailer. Metzen reprises his role as Thrall.
>>253025971

>You know you want it /v/
I'm not denying it. I want it badly.
But it's not happening. He's irrelevant. He and his series were never popular. They're also not old enough to get in by being retro.
slim to none chance but I am praying
>>253030023
Yes, ZSS/Samus and Shiek/Zelda are split into several characters.
It's also why we have separate pokemon like Charizard and not a Pokemon Trainer like Brawl.
>>253029607
>classic mega man is worst mega man
Didn't even have the decency to make it X or EXE. At least they're in the final smash and I can hope for alternate costumes and songs from their games.
>>253026756
Stop it anon, I don't want to lose hope.
It's actually a brilliant strategy. Leaking absolutely terrible characters to the press, so that people are genuinely happy when ANYTHING ELSE is actually getting put into the game.

>>253030841
>>253030893
Set your expectations much lower than that.
>>253030893
That game is a lot of fun, but I gotta say it will never happen.
I'm lost, what's happening? I've been busy so I haven't been able to keep up with any news. Are they having another Smash Direct?
I would hope for Lucina, but I know that won't happen. Ridley would be nice, but everyone's just expecting it to be Shulk. I guess my biggest hope for a Shulk reveal is that Egil or Melia make it in in some form.
>>253029107
And then at the end Sakurai apologizes for playing such a rude joke on the audience and puts up a picture of Chibi Robo as it fades to black.
>>253029852
>>253031012
WFT is fine. At least she's actually unique and seems to have a fun concept backing her. At least she isn't an animu swordsman.

Yeah, I think it would be him. Assuming it is a Gematsu guy, Chrom is too soon after Shulk/not that hype. Chorus Men don't really appeal to the hardcore, but Shulk's got a lot of love from people.

As much as some people like to praise Xenoblade Chronicles,VGChartzsays it didn't even hit 900K sales on a console that sold as well as the Wii. That's kind of disappointing.

You know, I think Ike is better, but I gotta respect your taste. All three of those guys are god tier lords. Only one missing there is this beast.

Move Sceptile up a tier and you would be me

Unfortunately it will be much less if we have to wait for the game to actually ship to determine it. So ultimately Ridley getting confirmed beforehand would be a sudden and massive one. Rather than just people being disappointed amidst the launch chaos.
