Which was the best reveal?
>>
cloud is best, everyone else is alright besides ryu who is a shit character.
>>
Mega Man and Snake. No one saw em coming, and the payoff was nice.

Pac-Man would've been tops too if they revealed him at the tournament, but they kinda spoiled him early on and released the trailer later.
>>
Snake
>>
Cloud would've been the biggest with a better trailer. It was too calming for "literally cloud in smash". Bayonetta's had the presentation behind it in addition to "literally bayonetta in smash"

Snake or Mega Man, They were both a part of their game's announcement and completely unexpcted Snake was the first but Mega Man's had more polish. Sonic had no fanfare and the rest are DLC.

Problem with Pac-Man was that it was revealed in a separate conference, right?

Snake's reveal was the most insane by far. He was revealed in the first trailer, before we even knew 3rd parties were an option. Truly legendary amounts of hype.

As for more recent ones, Mega Man's was both unexpected and fitting. Pac-Man was a pretty cool addition too, but the Bamco partnership already kind of foreshadowed it.

As for the DLCs, either Cloud or Bayonetta.

Revealed behind closed doors, randomly tossed the trailer onto the internet later

Snake. Bayo is my favourite, but the Snake reveal is otherworldly.

This is a game that, at the time, was known exclusively for it's Nintendo-singular all-star roster. It's a fucking Nintendo game full of Nintendo characters and a homage to Nintendo's entire software/IP history. It's post-E3 conference where everybody believes Nintendo has already dropped their loads, and here's a bunch of journos sitting behind closed doors watching a new trailer for the new Smash Bros. It goes through the motions; familiar shit, improved graphics (for Wii), and a bunch of awesome new Nintendo characters. Fuck yeah, Pit! Fuck yeah, Metaknight! Wario! Good mix of classics and surprises. New stages. New setpieces. Nintendogs assist trophy. Final smash looks awesome. All the shit people had come to love about Smash with a bunch of new surprises. Trailer ends, Smash Bros Brawl logo appears on the screen, awesome new theme ends triumphantly.

*brrt brrt*, that familiar codec buzz
what the fuck
what. the. fuck
It's a codec conversation. It's Campbell. It's Snake. It's their original Japanese voice actors performing entirely new dialogue perfectly stylised like a scene from MGS2. It's reference Smash bros in total serious deadpan cheek, a hybrid of Kojima's writing and Sakura's silliness.
"Supero smashu brothu"
"Are you up for it?"
*that fucking classic Snake grunt*
*camera zooms out*
*that fucking classic box*
*mario and link fighting in the foreground*
"Reconnaissance. Knowing your enemy is the quickest path to victory"
*throws off the box, freeze fucking frame on a PERFECT character model*
*NEWCOMER: SNAKE*
"IT'S SHOWTIMU"

This is when there were no expectations of DLC, third party shit, guest characters or anything. This AFTER the big E3 conference. This is a fucking Kojima character in a Nintendo all-star game. NOBODY had ANY fucking idea this was even remotely possible or on the cards.

The surprise simply wont ever be beaten in Smash even if the reveals themselves have gotten gud.
>>
Snake truly takes the top spot. Absolutely nobody knew he was going to be revealed or that third party characters where a possible thing. Both Sonic and Mega Man are tied imo, mainly because thanks to snake, a lot of people were expecting SOMETHING. Bayo is up there, followed by cloud, and ryu.
>>
I really thought Shrek was going to make it in.....
>>
>>320559338
It has to be either Snake or Bayonetta because of how unexpected it was. Especially Bayonetta. I mean, fuck man who else thought she wouldn't make the cut?

How? She's as Kid-unfriendly as you can get. Unlike Snake, she's pure sex appeal and uses guns with realistic-looking bullets. It just feels really weird to see her in the same game as colorful characters like Mario, Pikachu, Yoshi and Kirby
>>
>>320561365
And Snake is a fucking assassin.
>>
>>320559906
Nothing, he's just a fag
>>
>>320559759
Yeah that crazy pac man and his DLC status. His reveal was pretty shit but oh well, at least he's not that shitty cartoon version
>>
>>320561365

...Snake's specials and smashes consisted of pulling out weaponry with models literally based on real world military equipment. His final smash was rappelling from a helicopter and using a grenade launcher.
>>
>>320561365
>Unlike Snake, she's pure sex appeal and uses guns with realistic-looking bullets.

And Snake is a soldier/assassin that uses realistic explosives?

I say Bayonetta made more sense because her most recent game was Wii U-exclusive. The reveal was initially surprising but thinking about it a little bit, it makes a lot of sense. What better character to put in then one that just happened to be exclusive to Nintendo's console?
>>
>>320561703
Yeah. But he didn't have any guns.
>>
>>320561801
Right, just RPGs and grenade launchers.
>>
>>320561801

Yet he had a grenade launcher, rocket launcher, claymore mines, C4 explosive, and choked enemies into submission.
>>
>>320561623
Oh. Well in that case instead of being DLC it's being forgettable.
>>
>>320559338
Snake is definitely the most hype. Mega Man had probably the single most polished and cool looking intro trailer though.
Bayo and Cloud both had those "hooolleee shitttt" moments for me as well just from how much I didn't expect them. Probably would have for Ryu too but he got leaked mega early

Then Cloud was revealed

then you know for sure they couldnt get more broken barriers than that

Pac-man's trailer is the best out of all of them, but they fucked it up and the trailer wasn't out until people at the press saw him.

Pretty sure Cloud is more barrier-breaking than Bayonetta.

>>320562481
Yeah, lets just put whoever in. Smash 4 is basically MUGENstation All-Stars now over 10% of the roster aren't Nintendo characters
>>
Cloud was so unexpected that people started seriously discussing Goku in Smash
>>
Snake, followed by Bayonetta
>>
>>320559338
I still think Snake's reveal is one of the best moments in a game trailer ever. A visual gag and words and suddenly the whole game was changed.

>>320562618
>stupid fan-created criteria

Going by things Sakurai says in interviews isn't fan created. Just because Sakurai lies constantly and goes back on his word habitually doesn't mean they were "fan-created criteria".

Yeah they should cut out the third parties and add more Fire Emblem characters

Mega Man had the best trailer, hands down.

Most people and myself thought that Bayonetta couldn't get in because she was too lewd and inappropriate. It was also one of the reasons why people dismissed Shantae as a valid inclusion (although she never had much of a chance, regardless) After all, that one Tharja trophy had to be removed, and not to mention that one incidence with Palutena and CERO.
>>
Nothing will ever top Snake. No one saw that shit coming and it was proof that there were absolutely no limits anymore.

Bayonetta was a bit of a surprise though. Everyone else in the OP image felt like an eventuality.

bayonetta was the only one that made me fucking lose it with hype in smash 4. megaman kinda did but he's shit in the game so who cares.

Snake for Brawl, definitely.
As for 4, I'm gunna go with Bayonetta. She was the last ditch effort for Sm4sh and I don't think there was another character that could have had such a favorable reaction, especially after another goddamn FE rep got in, not to mention all those tweets from Kamiya telling people to fuck off and to stop asking him about Smash.

So, whose trailer was the best quality?

I'm going to say Mega Man

Mega Man definitely had the best trailer. I feel like if Snake had a trailer purpose built for his revelation fully like Mega Man did it would have been pretty cool, but then it would have missed the casualness with which his reveal was otherwise, which made it that much more hype
>>
>>320565587
>>320565868

Kamiya just got annoyed because it's not up to him. Bayonetta is owned and controlled by SEGA, so it was up to SEGA and Nintendo, he had nothing to do with it and everyone kept bothering him with it.
>>

Definitely. I think that's apart of why Snake's reveal was so great. With the newer reveals there was a lot of predictions and hoping for certain characters, like Bayonetta (still loved get reveal though). Snake was completely out of nowhere, nobody had even considered him joining. It's like the start of everybody making wild predictions for characters.

>>
>>320570491
Not really, he just lacked the shock factor all the other characters had. Mega Man was pronounced dead upon Inafune's departure, and a lot of us honestly expected Pac's redesign, and definitely didn't expect him to be the arcade namci rep. Snake, Cloud, Sonic, and Bayo all speak for themselves.

The problem is Ryu lacked that shock factor all other third party characters had. Capcom already had a rep, and Ryu was such a no brainer his reveal was underwhelming. He's not a bad character or addition by any means, but he certainly lacks the wow factor the others had.

Ganondorf was a late addition to Melee and the later games decided to stay faithful to that for whatever reason.

Smash 4's are the best developed newcomers yet, a lot of them have some unique asset that connects them to their home game. If the Dorf had been added to Smash now, he'd be a shitton more true to his appearances in Zelda.

It was still more shattering than even snake.

Sure, snake was huge, but sonic had been shitposted about being in melee forever. It was just one of those rumors that made their rounds everywhere. And every day since the snake reveal people were shitposting about whether or not he'd be in. It was pretty late into the dojo shit when he was finally announced. Snake was the tide being pulled out and sonic was the tidal wave.

Snake's reveal is head and shoulders above everyone else.

Then probably Cloud and Bayonetta. Sonic and Mega Man were both really cool but since they were so heavily requested it was less surprising. Ryu would have been up there with Cloud and Bayonetta if he didn't get leaked. Pac-Man's reveal got botched terribly.

In terms of pure surprise:

In terms of insanity:

If your choice isn't Sonic, then you weren't around for Japan Time. Simple as that. Seeing him appear out of fucking nowhere in an ordinary site update was insane.

Nothing tops Snake reveal. shit was cash. Megaman is the second one, Cloud the third and then Bayonetta. Ryu and Pac were leaked, so they werent so hypeful

I was honestly expecting Ryu. Megs was already in, Ryu is Capcom's 'other' mascot, Street Fighter has history with Nintendo.

I love Sonic, but his reveal in both Brawl and this game really did feel more like afterthoughts than anything else. I can understand with Brawl, since he was a literal last-minute addition to that game, but this game had no excuses, and that makes me kind of sad. At least they make up in this game by making him a high-tier character.

In that order
Any other answer is fucking wrong
Why? No one saw them coming

Remember, Sonic was initially meant to be kept under wraps completely. He was meant to be revealed in-game right at the end of SSE, as a complete surprise. They delayed the game and had to reveal him prematurely to keep the hype going.

Either way:

>Brawl's 'stinger' reveal was Snake
>SSB4's was Mega Man

Smash 5, who the Hell is it going to be?

Snake was holy shit what
Sonic was makes sense
Megaman was awesome
Pac man was fucking stupid
Ryu was eh
Cloud was when was FF7 remake promo
Bayonetta was wut

Of the current third party characters, who do you think is 'safe' for SSB5?

Hunter from monster hunter. No idea who else could have such a big impact.

Sonic and Pac-Man.

Megaman and Sonic.
Pacman if Namco helps out again.
Absolutely not Cloud
>>
>>320564183
cloud's game wasn't even on a nintendo console. In fact FF7 was pretty much Square giving Nintendo the finger. the only thing that could be more barrier breaking would be a rep from a franchise that was never on a nintendo system or fucking goku

what the fuck is wrong with you? of course he'd make a better stage or codec than a character

Sonic and the Capcom characters

Given how stingy Square was with Cloud (two songs) we will probably only have him in Smash 4
>>
>>320579306
Literally only Sonic, Pac-Man maybe if Namco is helping with the game again. Megaman, MAYBE. I'm positive everyone else won't return though.

As someone who is a Mega Man fag and was expecting him in Brawl but got dissapointed in SSB4; Sonic's reveal was great! I mean it was just by suprise, you wake up from bed just to check the latest Japan Time... and there he is out of nowhere too!

If Bayo, Cloud and the others minus Mega Man have had a similar treatment, it would still be mind blowing as when Sonic appeared.

Bayonneta again because no one's going to expect her to get back in probably. Her moves look pretty solid, it would be a waste if they make another one without her.

I'll say though, if they did something like "all smash dlc is capable of working on later smash games" then I'd probably be overwhelmed with joy. The fact that you have to pay extra for both 3ds and WiiU version of DLC pretty much shatters that dream though.
>>
>>320578671
Nope sorry, it is between Cloud and Bayonetta the closest ones to reach Snake's reveal.

For me, Sonic. Was a big fan back then.

Cloud and Bayo were announced an entire two years after the first trailer

I'm talking about the 'stinger' reveal as in the end of Smash 5's first E3 trailer

Snake was the biggest surprise. People shit their seats.

Sonic was half expected after Snake. Also I can't remember if there was a Sega leak of information, as there usually is.

Mega Man was the second biggest surprise, and it was especially made beautiful by both his classic design being animated so flawlessly and after the horrific treatment Capcom had given him recently.

Pac-man was far more expected than Sonic was, specifically due to Namco's involvement in the game's development. Once Mega Man was in, Pac-man was a sure in. It was just a matter of whether it'd be his classic or modern design. They chose the better one for sure.

Ryu was a surprise but not a shit-your-seats surprise like Snake or Mega-Man. He basically opened the gates for any third party character to be possible.

Cloud was surprising in that you'd think they'd pick a character that was more Nintendo related, like the Chocobo or Geno. This feels more like an advertisement for FF7 Remake than anything, and makes me question if Ryu is just an ad for SFV.

Bayonetta is important to the Wii U so she gets a pass that Ryu and Cloud don't hold. She still feels out of place, more than Snake or Ryu ever could, but she's definitely a better pick than most pople Smash Ballet picks.

Snake > Mega Man > Bayonetta > Sonic > Pac-man > Ryu > Cloud

Snake easily. Sonic wasn't as huge and who the reveals for 4 wasn't as great as Brawl, at least for me personally.

I really wish Sonic had a better trailer/reveal than the media going "oh Sonic's in Brawl btw", and then the dojo updating to include him. Imagine if they'd done it up like Snake's reveal, or later like Megaman's.

I figure it's because he was apparently added in so late, but it felt rushed. As for best trailer, I've got to give it to Snake and Mega Man, though, with Pac Man as a close second to those two.

They were all pretty sweet in their own ways, though.
