Initial loss but it gets the word out that they exist and people get to try them when they otherwise may have completely ignored them. Could build a lot of interest where none previously existed. And since I'm on that topic it still makes me giddy when I think that I can get a little figure of any character on the roster. I want a little Robin figure for my desk. :v:

I seem to recall a gif or video of a similar instance where a characters dash move completely missed despite their attack clearly connecting with the opponent, followed by both characters not close enough to attack each but the opponent still being able to grab the one who attacked earlier. I was joking about how some hitboxes were kinda of ridiculous.

dude i'd love a free amiibo with smash and it'd probably hook me on them if smash has good amiibo integration.

i wonder if robin and wii fit trainer will get both male and female amiibo's hang on a moment wasn't Lucina pictured when they first unveiled the amiibos back at E3? i simply dismissed it as just being about amiibos in general outside of smash as i recall game and watch was also pictured i wish i had the picture but maybe i should take a closer look in case we could get any other clues

[QUOTE=murple;45411763]i wonder if robin and wii fit trainer will get both male and female amiibo's[/QUOTE] Probably/hopefully not. Unless it's like, each version of the amiibo works on both versions of the character in-game. Like, if I get a male Robin, I better be able to use it on a female Robin npc.

[QUOTE=Maruhai;45411816][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/4t6lrf0.gif[/IMG] this ?[/QUOTE] Bingo.

[QUOTE=Rufia;45411873]So wait, Lucina was made to fill a gap left by another character? I wonder who got cut.[/QUOTE] Thread says that part was a mistranslation. (Which is why I didn't quote it over.) [QUOTE]Originally Lucina was a Marth color variation because they're related characters. The have different names and voices but play the same, and would receive treatment similar to male/female WFT, Villager and Robin. However, while Lucina's fighting style is the same, she has different characteristics. Because there's only a small difference, she would be a convenient additional character. This made her a lucky newcomer pick.[/QUOTE] If they have no issues with creating clones just like that, I would expect others to show up.

[QUOTE=Rufia;45411873]So wait, Lucina was made to fill a gap left by another character? I wonder who got cut.[/QUOTE] This might sound out of the left field, but could it be Rayman, with Sakurai subtly hinting what it could have been before Ubisoft cocked their relationship with Nintendo up big time?

There's still hope for the other two Space Animals to come back, huzzah!

Huh. It sounds like Lucina is a special case, and that we might not necessarily get any other clones. Damn.

[/URL][/QUOTE] Surely the Shadow image there is just to tie in with the thematics of the covers, because I doubt he'll be back in Smash Bros 4 as anything but an Assist Trophy again (especially when he's basically had no relevance to the series aside from Rival Battles/Races in Generations since Sonic 06). Also the fact that they probably made their own Mega Man model for that cover really shows. It's like they tried to apply the lengthy bending of limbs from Mega Man 8 but forgot how his fucking limbs work.

[QUOTE=Rufia;45412058]Have we seen Shadow as an Assist Trophy yet? If not, I wouldn't be surprised if he turned out to be an alt costume for Sonic.

Or maybe it was other footage, but I recall seeing him in the new Animal Crossing stage.

[/QUOTE] I actually meant new clones, although Lucina's inclusion did seem to hint that small changes were enough for a character to justify their appearance in Smash 4 despite being 'clone-y'... until the whole "Lucina is a special case" thing I was talking about.

A Metal Sonic alt skin for Sonic would be rad.

Sonic turning into Metal Sonic when using a Metal box would be rad.

I'm kinda sad seeing Lucina being treated like that. I was really happy to see her on the roster, and planned her to be my main, but seeing she's just Marth, but easier, kinda blow it for me.

I'm just really happy Captain Falcon is finally confirmed... was getting worried another one of the originals was being eliminated haha I still think Ridley should have been put in if even to be a foil for Samus but my friend pointed out that he flies around only in the games but idk Charizard and meta knight had wings and it wasn't an issue.. thoughts?
