Seigneur, all those costumes looks/sounds amazing.
Poor guy will be dead soon though, he didn't break the embargo, he DESTROYED it.

Ha ha funny, seriously British Shulk is nothing amazing when you live in the UK and freaking everyone speaks like that. ¬_¬;

I see where people saying that could be frustrating for someone like you who lives in the UK, but what I love about British Shulk isn't specifically his British accent. I'm not saying I love British Shulk because I find his British accent to be fascinating or weird or easy to make fun of. It's more just how balls-to-the-wall over-the-top and dramatic he is about literally everything. I mean, all the English voices in Xenoblade Chronicles are like that, which is a huge part of their charm, and Shulk is no different.

In short, I like and prefer British Shulk because of Adam Howden's fantastic, over-the-top performance, not specifically because of his British accent. That's why I'm disappointed that SMM only gets Japanese Shulk.

All that said, sorry if my post made you feel like I was just saying "lol British accents sound funny!"

My guess, The Pokémon Company didn't want any implication that Pikachu could be killed by a Goomba in one hit.

They were okay with a Level 100 (basically) Pikachu being beat by a Level 5 Snivy in the anime, so yeah.

 

[Hot Coldman]

No English Shulk is rubbish.

 

[To Far Away Times]

I had no idea about the secret characters. This looks incredible.

 

[Nia]

I'm waiting to see footage of Ashley. I'm still hyped.

 

[Prisoner]

No English Shulk is rubbish.

Not feeling it, huh?

 

[SegaShack]

I'm surprised they didn't use the Pikachu Yellow Version follow sprite.

 

[alvis.exe]

Do Amiibo have region ID differences that could account for Japanese vs English Shulk? IIRC they don't but still hoping for some miracle that'll give us Adam Howden! Hugely prefer his voice over Asanuma's. Especially for the jumping and dying sounds hahaha.

 

[Retromelon]

Charizard gets to be in another game...yay....

 

[NateDrake]

Doing a live-stream now on Youtube

 

[dreampeppers99]

do we have diddy kong or another dkc family member?

 

[TheXfactor]

Not feeling it, huh?

Oh you!

 

[ghibli99]

There is no amiibo exclusive content.

Music to my ears -- thank you!

 

[ClayKavalier]

Who's Ashley?

 

[Blood Diamonds]

Playable Shulk???

 

[Zalman]

Diddy Kong is in.

 

[HUELEN10]

I saw a Rosalina image floating around but I don't have it on me atm.

Though something unrelated to your question, Ashley is in the game too https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYQHAAABAACNUKFJE8Ob5A

Please have Mona, please have Mona, please have Mona, please have Mona, please have Mona, please have Mona, please have Mona...

I love how all the Zelda characters have their own version of the "Get Item" theme.

Link - LoZ
Zelda - AlttP
Shiek - OoT
Toon Link - WW

 

[entremet]

Who's Ashley?

Warioware character

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Please have Mona, please have Mona, please have Mona, please have Mona, please have Mona, please have Mona, please have Mona...

Ashley is quite a bit more popular.

 

[Moonlight]

I hope stuff like Ashley opens up the path for Assist Trophy characters in general.

Spoiler

lyn pls

 

[Jigorath]

Adorable.

I want this game already.

 

[Tagyhag]

That Course Clear jingle is music to my ears, love it.

 

[Nanashrew]

Who's Ashley?

The girl next door living in a haunted mansion. You'd better learn her name and don't be fooled by her innocent demeanor or she'll cast a spell on you.

 

[Forkball]

All costumes can be unlocked in the game, but you get them immediately with amiibos.

The Pikachu sprite looks really nice. It's a bummer about the sounds though. I want to hear this!

Also, Ryu is probably in the game as well. Sadly fire flowers won't give him hadokens. Maybe he can shoryuken the flag pole or something.

To be fair, that's a Smash victory theme. If they were to do a Pokémon one it'd probably be the Victory over the trainer one.

It's not happening anyway. It sucks, but that's how it is unfortunately. I'll try and use my pull to find out what I can as to why.

 

[Gnilres]

Question! (sorry if it has already been answered)

Are these costumes available only in the SMB style? That's all I've seen so far.

 

[Mik2121]

Not a fan of these universes colliding at all.

I take Mario lore extremely seriously.

You surely mean Mario story, not lore.



UGH...

 

[JoeM86]

Yes they are. The Mystery Mushroom turns into the Leaf, Cape and Propeller Hat in each other style

 

[foxuzamaki]

YES

.

 

[maniac-kun]

Whats up with all those sound bugs?

 

[Son Of D]

The lack of English Shulk is disappointing. I'm guessing it wasn't worth paying the VA to use his voice?

I don't know, they already did it for Smash. They could have at least just reused some of those ("It's Shulk time!").

 

[Hero of Legend]

THE CHOSEN ONE!

And Mario Kart! LOL

 

[Neoxon]

THE CHOSEN ONE!

And Mario Kart! LOL

A shame that The Chosen One won't get the treatment he deserves.

Damn you, TPC!

 

[BennyBlanco]

I dunno if this is old news, but I just preordered and it's $10 off if you have amazon prime.

 

[ffdgh]

THE CHOSEN ONE!

And Mario Kart! LOL

...Ok now I need Luigi, Pink Gold Peach, and Bowser in a kart. Maybe we'll get Lucas, Roy and Ryu after all.
