Fuck that poser. We need Belmonts or (by Hudson which Konami owns) Bomberman

Fuck yeah. Simon Belmont particularly(not just to round out the Captain N video team), since out of all the CV games, he appeared in the most Nintendo-released games(3; Castlevania, Castlevania II: Simon's Quest and Super Castlevania IV, if not counting Vampire Killer, which would make it 4). Besides, fuck modern relevancy and the Kojima fanboys who'd try to say it's all about popularity, there were more CV games released for Nintendo consoles(and handhelds) than there were Metal Gear games released for them. Castlevania needs it's due as the PROPER representative for Konami!

Bomberman or Bonk would suffice for Hudson(as would Master Higgins, and to a lesser extent, Milon).

We need Square Enix to get into the race. I can't think of anyone in particular(old school Fighter from the first FF, Slime from DQ, Crono from CT or Randi from SoM), though I could think Bub and Bob(from Bubble Bobble) would make a killer addition for their Taito side!!

Wow, yet again Sakurai makes I character I didn't want look interesting. Pac-Man reminds me a lot of Game & Watch, my main.

Nintendo has absolutely destroyed E3. They've gotta have something huge ready for tomorrow's round table.

IIRC, the third leak from Sal didn't say the team wants Lucas to be DLC. It just said they're considering DLC, and separate from that, there is internal debate about cutting Lucas. But yes, from that one can infer Lucas would be a possible DLC candidate, if cut. I'm sure any and all cut characters could possibly come back as DLC. Could be lucrative if they charged for them...

Trying to find this 3rd leak. Any source?

Really weird seeing G&W at the end of that video but nothing on him in the Smash site. Also him without the thick border is odd.

Pac-Man is so awesome, but man, I really do wonder why they didn't close out the Invitational with him. I'm sure there was a reason, I'm just not sure offhand what it may be.

It's because Pacman is a dinosaur of a relic, & most of the kids in the audience will go 'huh' if they had watched this trailer. (For the record, I'm only half-joking.)

Very excited about PacMan! Hope they add a Ms. Pacman alt. costume as well.

Surprised that blue represented Megaman instead of Sonic in the trailer though. While I wasn't alive at that time, as far as I know Megaman and Mario were not "competitors" (for the company they represented), but Sonic and Mario definitely were. Will that Pac-Man stage be in the Wii U version as well? I really hope so.

I vote a Dragon Quest character so it could be alil more relevant in the west >_<

Heck DQIX & X have create-a-characters right? If they used that they could go all AC/Mii on 'em an have different variants!

They might have been worried that the Invitational would turn into a disaster, or that the crowd reaction would be resoundingly negative. Basically they played it safe and lost out on a big opportunity.

Yeah, probably this.

The third leak was posted at Gematsu this morning, before the E3 Digital Event. Same leaker who revealed Wii Fit Trainer, Villager, Mega Man, etc, before last E3. The third leak essentially says that the team was internally debating whether to cut Lucas, there is talk of post-launch DLC character releases, and the leaker once again reaffirmed the following newcomers: Mii Fighters (identified by name, before the event), Palutena (although he called her "Goddess Palutena"), Pac-Man, Shulk, Chrom, and Chorus Men.

Clearly the crowd would rather watch Famitsu beat Gameinformer.

Pac-Man and the first Game & Watch game came out in 1980. Donkey Kong came out in 1981. Thus Mr. Game & Watch and Pac-Man are both a year old than Mario and DK.

Well, yeah, that's obvious. But G&W hasn't been confirmed as a character yet, has he? Thought it might be a tease.

It's occurred to me now that the three guest characters all represent the three franchises that were part of Project X Zone, a game on a 3DS console. :0 :0 :0

They need to reveal more characters! The leak fucking sucks, though. Characters i don't want and characters I do want absent.

Mickey Mouse is pushing it. Sora would be a better fit.

I think he makes a good fit, honestly. He has moveset potential.
