So what's the chance of Wii U-only modes and characters?
I'm having a blast watching the stream but I feel kind of bad because I've spoiled an entire game which I won't be playing until winter.
 
I love Dark Pit's dark arrows and the blue effect on his Side Smash (Electroshock Arm?), and the Kirby Game Boy stage is so cool. It alternates between scrolling and being stationary, and players can play behind the frame of the screen, appearing as outlined silhouettes. :)

I think it's the Pandora Claws.

I'm really miffed they didn't make his moveset use the DP Staff. Like, it's kind of crazy when you could just recycle (MOST) animations and let him use the staff for his normals and neutral special.

Then they go and include it in his render like it's some big part of his moveset. The disappointing thing about Pittoo for me is how he doesn't use that damn staff :(

Dang, Bowser Jr.'s Final Smash is really dumb.

I didn't realize it actually summons shadow mario to fight, thought it was just paint on the screen. Nice!

His Side B definitely isn't the claws, dunno about his down B.

Maturity, bitches.
Hmmm... I wonder if Sakurai will just talk about the Wii U version in future PotDs or will provide post release commentary for the 3DS version.

Would be nice to get the official unlock conditions.

I doubt that happening until sometime late next year. It's obvious Sakurai's is gonna drag this on and reveal everyone slowly until the Wii U version hits.

This. Nintendo didn't announce Mario Kart DLC until 3 months after release. My guess is that we get an announcement around March-April of DLC. Heck maybe even E3.

Modes, for sure. Characters, almost none. Already stated the rosters were the same.

I feel kinda bad watching the streams too. I couldn't avoid the characters, but I could have avoided all these details until Oct 3.
 
My hype is so high. I want this game now. NOW.

I think you're probably right. Easier to unlock, as in go to the debug menu and choose 'unlock all'.

But yeah, it would stand to reason that the character we saw unlocked were the earlier unlocks. If they tried to keep something super secret hidden in their confidential ratings video, it would be the last unlock(s). You wouldn't unlock the last character first, then it'd be the first character.

I just have a hard time buying that they wouldn't include every character in a ratings video. I bet that we get everyone from ESRB leak and All Star mode remains locked until Wii U version comes out.

I have a hard time buying that too. But I think All Star will unlock once we get everyone from the ESRB video.

All-Star mode was likely locked because Mii Fighters weren't unlocked in the ESRB leak
