Good to know the badges and equipment you get in the 3DS version will 100% carry over.

No problem. I've spent apparently ~230ish matches with Sheik online now it seems, about half with friends/people from AllIsBrawl and the other half on For Glory 1v1. Really starting to feel like I have control over the common MUs and starting to kill super early with Sheik (Fair to Fish is seriously amazing, learn when to hit B early and when not to) and her combination of insane mixups and the ability to easily condition people with Needles. Strategic use of Vanish is highly underrated; I've run offstage only to do a Vanish to edge, when I know opponent can only make it to ledge, to either hit then with the explosion hitbox or to trump them off the ledge for free Bairs. Done it numerous times on stage too after conditioning people... Hell, I've even decided while landing on stage to use it. Such a crazy ridiculously buff move now. I've started to be able to work in Grenade finally too. Sheik has arguably zero bad moves and it's amazing. Dash backwards, reverse down-b? Legit. Dash to pivot fsmash? Legit too. Ftilt ftilt ftilt chase with fair, do it a few times, mix up to Fish after a few times, so fun to condition the hell out of people with her. Find yourself on ledge? Decent option if you haven't shown it before is tapping back to get off ledge but not fast fall, instantly hit Vanish, and recover on stage with it. Hitbox+windbox on end is seriously dumb and unnecessary. I could talk about new Sheik for days, man. So so so happy with all the changes.

All this Smash 4 Sheik play has even worked its way into my Melee/PM game, mostly with Vanish. Random Vanishes as mixups completely wrecking my locals. One guy noticed it the other day so I might have to start holding back a bit to not let people get a complete read on me, heh

That means there are indeed at least 3 character spots left. Let speculation resume.

Wait, what?

Taking the extended MegaMan reveal trailer now for Bowser Jr., I got to thinking: what seemed over the top about some of the reveal trailers? Palutena's kind of stuck out. Rosalina's, Greninja's and Shulk's seem prime for being "continued" as well.

Mewtwo is back, so I have a feeling one or two of these trailers are not quite "done" yet.

There are 4 "missing" character slots on the 3DS select screen to make the screen completely full. Before Mewtwo's announcement, it was kind of a 50/50 between a stylistic choice and there being character yet to be added. Now that Mewtwo is confirmed as playable in 2015, there is either one lonely random row of only 6 fighters at the very bottom of the select screen, or there are 3 fighters on the way to make it an even 6 rows of 9 each.

Oh new characters? Sweet. Will they be DLC or just patched in?

**Kirin** · 2014-10-23 18:04

Mewtwo will be free DLC to people who got both versions. Between the free soundtrack and now Mewtwo there really isnt a reason not to own both.

**Corrderio** · 2014-10-23 18:11

I was planning on getting both anyway so go me.

Wonder how much they'll cost and if they're account bound so I only have to buy once.

**Nama** · 2014-10-23 18:51

Some people are already flipping their shit over the "bullshit" of "having" to buy two games to get DLC since they didn't announce you can buy it stand alone but thats pretty much a given though.

**Corrderio** · 2014-10-23 18:55

Also, why is everyone going fanboy over Mewtwo? Was he OP in Melee or something?

**Not Kuno** · 2014-10-23 18:58

Mewtwo has always been my favorite Pokemon. He wasn't too good in Melee though, which made me very sad.

**Kirin** · 2014-10-23 18:59

He was Lucario before Lucario, and I've always liked him because he was a little unorthodox to play as (kinda like Ness) and he is the "villain" slot for Pokemon.

Just kind of neat to have him back.

Oh dear:

Not one single utterance of "Settle it in Smash". Come on Nintendo...

**Ratatapa** · 2014-10-23 19:24

Is that Young Peyton Manning?

**Madeline** · 2014-10-23 19:51

full nintendo direct video for people who might've missed it/came in on it halfway like I did!

mad hype for those stage returns. been missing some of them like onett! and a higher definition hyrule temple. :Q

**Adajer** · 2014-10-23 20:27

8 player Smash matches...........

**SephYuyX** · 2014-10-23 21:21

Wow, this game is.. vast..

**Lucavi** · 2014-10-23 21:32

This game is nuts...

**Cream Soda** · 2014-10-23 23:57

Seems like a solid choice from the ratings/comments

Anyone have any other recommendations? Official ones are like 50+ and no free shipping, so probably not going to go that route

I just bought this one and it seems like it's literally the same thing with a different logo and a slightly lower price.

**Nitsuki** · 2014-10-24 00:13

Might pick that up if i can't find my official wii one at my parents place.

**Qeomash** · 2014-10-24 03:52

Any word on how much the Amiibos are going to cost?
