I honestly don't really mind not seeing Jigglypuff, but come on Nintendo, where the fuck is my Captain Falcon?

Aye, sad to see Captain Falcon leave smash, second time my main doesn't make it in unfortunately.

...Captain Falcon was unlockable in Brawl. He wasn't announced before the Japanese release of the game. Same with the original Smash.

Why are people acting like unlockable characters, or even DLC characters, are outside of the realm of possibility?

Heck, veterans get revealed randomly. Ike got randomly revealed about 2-3 weeks ago.

Fuuuuuuuuu- its midnight I checked the SSB4 sight and got hyped again! GODDAMMIT SAKURAI I NEED SLEEP!

I'm surprised they went with his old design.

Assembled the new wishlist.
Wii U and 3DS Wishlist

Wii U:
-Hyrule Warriors
-Yoshi's Wooly World
-Kirby and the Rainbow Curse
-Super Smash Bros
-Bayonetta 1 and 2

edit: And I have to say, I'm really amazed about Yoshi's Wooly World, at first what it was originally (Yoshi's Epic Yarn), didn't interest me at all, but now, it looks pretty sick, can't wait for it!

I believe the title you're referring to is Vib-Ribbon, also from the developers of PaRappa the Rapper.

Well, I guess we're about to hear some extreme elation at that then...personally, I'm indifferent, but if it makes someone's day, then it's good to hear.

I recall it being mentioned that the Smash roster will be equally large as the one from Brawl, both to keep more characters for a future installment and to prevent people from getting too many favourites and demanding they grow it even larger for future installments. Right now, there's 35 characters total, the same amount as Brawl's roster.

Its my favorite pacman design, so I'm personally ecstatic that they went with this one over the 20th anniversary model

OH MY GOD, I LOVE YOU SAKURAI FOR THIS, I AM GETTING THIS DAY ONE!
I am no longer depressed at all. He put my favourite design ever. Japanese hate Ghostly Adventures anyways so I am not surprised. LONG LIVE PAC-MAN!

Wow, Pacman will join? I knew OCG would be blown away.

I'm very happy with the inclusion of the Miis. Now I shall have no complains about the lack of choice of characters in this new game.

Actually, the roster was not stated to be any size in comparison to Brawl. It was merely stated that the amount of newcomers in Smash 4 would be less than the amount in Brawl. However, at last year's E3, no character cuts from Brawl were planned. Character cuts would only happen due to time constraints.

The only characters I think will be cut right now are Snake (unfortunately, since he was one of the best additions), Ivysaur, and Squirtle.

Why have Pac-man when you can have Ray-man.

Favourite moment from the Smash Invitational.

Rosalina/KoreanDJ is a fucking hero, sacrificing a stock like that so Mega Man can have his moment.

The Megaman fans freaking out makes me so happy, someone should REALLY show this to Capcom to show there REALLY is a crowd for Megaman still.

They've been showing more Treehouse games. Yoshi's Wooly World is on now and it looks so fun and adorable.

Sorry for the bump - Nintendo is about to announce that mystery 3DS game at a round table. It's already confirmed to be a new IP. It will also get a lot of coverage tomorrow at the Treehouse stream.

Brace yourselves.
