[Rindain]

Ridley, Geno, Captain Olimar GO!

 

[JohnTinker]

It's time.

 

[CreatureX3]

Maybe as a followup to having six "veteran" items in one day, we'll get two veteran characters, like we used to back in the ancient times of Mario + Link and Kirby + Pikachu. >_>

Sheik + Young Link (cel-shaded) would be nice.

 

[layzie1989]

It's time.

holy shit :lol

 

[Rindain]

That reminds me...Midna/Wolf Link is a good possibility.

 

[ohamsie]

How are you on GAF

I'm selective in the threads I read?

 

[Olaeh]

I will predict Olimar

 

[Golden Darkness]

Grey Fox/Cyborg Ninja Assist Trophy!

And Grabs, I think.

 

[Iam Canadian]

Double update!

MGS Assist Trophy and throwing!

 

[Darkpen]

OH SHIT, GRAY FOX O_O

 

[Rotanibor]

3rd party assist! mini-ton!

 

[ohamsie]

[JohnTinker]

HOLY CRAP


MEGAAAAAAATON

 

[Firestorm]

niiinjaaaa

 

[Olaeh]

ZOMG!! more 3rd part assist!

 

[Rindain]

Cool update...tomorrow HAS to be a character profile!

 

[MrCheez]

new snake ass shot GET

 

[grandjedi6]

Awww! It makes you want to use him as a playable character.

That bastard :lol

 

[CassSept]

Throwing...
AND GRAY FOX :OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
3RD PARTY AT CONFIRMED!
AWESOME!

 

[Scalpel Knight]

Awesome, the first third-party assist trophy we've seen. Too bad he isn't playable, that would have been too cool for words. Still, neat.

 

[Iam Canadian]

I don't like Metal Gear, but this guy seems cool enough.

Gray Fox, who engaged in a grand battle to the death with Metal Gear REX... To think that he would reappear on Wii, and alongside Mario and Sonic at that!

You never know what might happen in this world.

Too true, Sakurai. Too true.

 

[Firestorm]

Well, basically confirms Tails as at least an AT.

 

[CreatureX3]

Whoah! Double f'n update!

Gray Fox...wow!

 

[ohamsie]

More Snake ass!

 

[JohnTinker]

Well, basically confirms Tails as at least an AT.

Hopefully he'll stay there

 

[Insaniac]

Now sakurai is just teasing >.>

 

[Golden Darkness]

If Snake is going to be joining the brawl, then it should be fine to have someone else from the Metal Gear world join as an Assist Trophy, right?

Frank Jaeger, the Gray Fox, appears!

Oh! Cool mono-eye!

He approaches stealthily with lithe jumps, coming right in then slicing repeatedly. Awww! It makes you want to use him as a playable character.

He slices over and over with his back-handed grip.

By the way, he reflects projectiles.

PA-SHEEN!

Gray Fox faces off with Snake.

Gray Fox, who engaged in a grand battle to the death with Metal Gear REX... To think that he would reappear on Wii, and alongside Mario and Sonic at that!

You never know what might happen in this world.

===================================================

Surely you’ve learned how to shield to protect yourself. Have you learned that yet? Good. You’ve learned.

Then next up is grabbing. And throwing!

Press the attack button while shielding...

And grab at your opponent!

If you press the attack button while shielding, you’ll grab. Give a try next time you’re shielding.

Block your enemy’s attack with your shield!

Then just press the attack button to grab your enemy!

Tilt the Control Stick in any direction you like to throw!

Then pursue with combo attacks!

And so on.

Grabs are also effective against enemies that are protecting themselves with their own shields. Shield against attacks, then grab. Or dodge. If you can understand this flow, you’ll find they add a dimension that changes the simple charging attack.

At any rate, get in the habit of shielding when you’re in trouble. Then you can think about what comes next.

 

[fernoca]

This goes along with the semi-old rumor of multiple third party charatcers from the same franchise..

Playable Sonic with Nights as an assist trophy...Pac-Man and the ghosts...etc...

Hmm...

 

[Chumly]

Well, basically confirms Tails as at least an AT.

wasnt this confirmed long ago? Tails follows you around and saves you from a fall.

 

[rakka]

holy shit, gray fox : D
was hoping he would be in the game

not playable :______________ (

 

[Iam Canadian]

This continues to support my theory that Smash 101 updates are going to be paired with more interesting updates from here on out.

 

[Scalpel Knight]

Awww! It makes you want to use him as a playable character.

You fucking cocktease, Sakurai.

 

[Alien Bob]

That bastard :lol

That pretty much confirms him as a playable character

Spoiler

believe.

 

[ohamsie]

Wonder if Raiden will be a secret character or an assist trophy now..

Spoiler

or not in at all :O

 

[speedpop]

Hell yeah! Gray Fox rocks.

 

[MrCheez]

PA-SHEEN!

 

[kirbutashi]

THIS IS JUST LIKE ONE OF MY JAPANESE ANIMES.

 

[rikichi]

OMG!!!!!!

I JUST FUKIN CAME!!!!!

 

[Link Man]

Boring week thus far.

 

[QuickKick89]

You're that Ninja!!

 

[kirbutashi]

Force choke confirmed?

 

[MrCheez]

VS

KATANA FIGHT GO

 

[RagnarokX]

wasnt this confirmed long ago? Tails follows you around and saves you from a fall.

Yeah, that's what the E for All people were saying...

 

[Hero]

So three of the Assist Trophies we've seen so far have been a character that wields a sword. (Samurai Goroh, Lyn, Gray Fox) Sakurai sword fetish confirmed?

What other sword wielders could there be?

Edit:

Forgot the Sin & Punishment character.

 

[Baryn]

Haha, Kojima is responsible for Cyborg Ninja being an assist trophy. I know it! For the past ten years, he hasn't allowed us to play as the anti-hero ninja, and he has done it on purpose.

 

[DDayton]

Gray Fox versus Star Fox, eh?

Spoiler

(Yes, I know. Fox McCloud.)

 

[Raging Spaniard]

Is Shin and Punishment a Nintendo title? I thought that was 3rd party

Anyways, cool update, now I'm expecting a Meryl Assist too.

 

[Shard]

I want a Psycho Mantis AT now.

 

[Saitou]

That cocktease remark can only mean one thing


MGS4 RAIDEN PLAYABLE BELIEVE

;_______________;

 

[Scalpel Knight]

Haha, Kojima is responsible for Cyborg Ninja being an assist trophy. I know it! For the past ten years, he hasn't allowed us to play as the anti-hero ninja, and he has done it on purpose.

Soon it will be revealed that all playable characters are replaced by Raiden after 2 hours of play.
