Think that might be a taunt, would be really weird to have an AT that is also part of Shulk's final smash

Yeah, I agree. Reyn still has a good shot at AT status.

 

[Luigiv]

The approach English voice acting is interesting to say the least. Obviously not the same actors but I do love the fact that they went to effort of impersonating the originals, even if their English accents are terrible. That's a huge step up from how they normally handle these things in smash ("I fight for my friends, hur dur").

Edit: Or are they the same voice actors? If so, why does Shulk sound so American at times? Either way, totally awesome.

 

[Kansoku]

The best part about this is that the final smash is exactly the team I used in Xenoblade

 

[PairOfFilthySocks]

Hurrah for male designer

 

[MoogleWizard]

Annd another offical render XD

That's not official, is it? The head to shoulder ratio is all wrong and his head is too big. He looks deformed.

I think it's the same VA actually.

 

[SoraanTribal]

Man that was awesome! Loved the trailer. He shall be my main.

 

[LiK]

Thanks leakers

 

[SquiddyCracker]

Well, I was skeptical about another Sword-user, but Shulk seems pretty fun.

 

[RPGCrazied]

His head looks strangely huge..eh. I hope he gets another costume, not a fan of the boxers.

His white armor was pretty bad ass! Wish that was included too.

 

[Luigiv]

Actually his head is the right size, just his hair is really "boofy" (for lack of a better word). Of course he is meant to be a little cartoony looking so slightly deformed proportions aren't out of place.

I think it's the same VA actually.

Yeah, I've amended my post. I just assumed they were different actors because Shulk's accent seemed off, like an American putting on a fake English accent.

 

[impirius]

"Boxers"? Everyone knows those are Swimming Trunks and Swimming Sandals.

 

[The Technomancer]

Well, I was skeptical about another Sword-user, but Shulk seems pretty fun.

Same. It doesn't look like he's going to play too much like the other sword users either, what with the focus on switching between modes

 

[Fuu]

Annd another offical render XD

Love it! Sakurai knows what's up.

 

[LiK]

Annd another offical render XD

LEWD.

 

[kubus]

oh my god I'm ready to cry

ever since Smash was announced I really wanted Shulk to get in along with a Riki appearance and not only did those two things happen, they also put Dunban in it.

Shulk + Riki + Dunban was my team in Xenoblade.

Thank you based Sakurai. Thank you.

edit: Oh and I also hoped that his swimming trunks would be an alt costume if he got in, and voila.

Thank you again based Sakurai and Male Character Designer.

 

[AcademicSaucer]

Hurrah for male designer

Male designer didnt want to go home until he finished this

Agreed. If Melia makes it in, I'll be over the moon.

Of course it is, it's a male power fantasy!

Yea that's official. They even posted it on facebook

 

[Dusk Golem]

"Until Shulk bares his nippleless chest and thighs, I HAVE NO HOME."

 

[ultron87]

Dunban up in the house! Glad the real hero of Xenoblade gets to make an appearance.

 

[Penguin]

If swimwear is in, I hope they include some of the more.. ridiculous armor sets.

 

[Beren the Empty-Handed]

"Until Shulk bares his his nippleless chest and thighs, I HAVE NO HOME."

I mean, look at that butt. It would be a travesty to not have that in the game.

 

[Village]

Now everyone needs summer swim wear gear.

 

[kubus]

I kinda want an alt costume with the low pixel eyes. Shulk is weird in high res!

 

[thefro]

Agreed. If Melia makes it in, I'll be over the moon.

Wonder if they could get the rights to use Jenna Coleman's voice samples again now that she's a relatively big name.

 

[Bulzeeb]

haha I am so maning him

Heropon Assist Trophy!!

Fuck yeah for that

why is nobody calling Nintendo sexist on that?

 

[Maebe]

His white armor was pretty bad ass! Wish that was included too.

This is what I had in mind as well. My favourite for him in the game.

Spoiler

Please bring Melia in, too

 

[xaszatm]

Annd another offical render XD

So we can say that Zero Suit Samus is not alone in the fanservice? (Like she was ever with Captain Falcon on the loose?)

 

[Fuu]

"Until Shulk bares his his nippleless chest and thighs, I HAVE NO HOME."

Not exactly!

*enhance*

 

[GRW810]

Imagine how mind-blowing this would have been pre-leaks.

 

[HawthorneKitty]

Yeah, I better see some articles on this.

 

[Dusk Golem]

That's more Shulk nipples than I expected to see when I woke up this morning.

(Though not sure if there are any or at least how visible they are on the actual model, pretty sure he had none in the actual game too)

 

[Beren the Empty-Handed]

Yeah, it's just a dream floating high above the Eryth Sea for now...

 

[pinkurocket]

Attention to detail.

 

[Marjar]

Annd another offical render XD

Well I know who I'm maining.

 

[megarockexe]

Who is this "Shu-ulk" fellow and should I be excited.

 

[Bulzeeb]

Who is this "Shu-ulk" fellow and should I be excited.

the main character of the best rpg

Spoiler

that almost no one played

last gen

 

[Stitch]

This objectification of men is not okay.

 

[Hot Coldman]

literally no way Melia shows up, beyond being a trophy of the non-assisting variety

I wonder if the localisation team were praying Sakurai didn't decide to make her an AT

[Riki]

Riki proud to be Final Smash with DunDun!

 

[Hours Left]

I'll say it again, kudos to Nintendo for the swimsuit alt for Shulk. (Despite his twink status and the unnaturally large size of his head from the render.)

Now give us Dunban in his swimsuit too when you pick that alt, plus some scantily clad costumes for Cap, Ike, Little Mac & Mr. Fit. (And Snake, if he's in.)

Thanks.

 

[Franchuzas87]

My new main. I'm so happy, even if we already knew because of the leak.

Having Riki and Dunban in his Final Smash is really the cherry on top.

 

[RPGCrazied]

Isn't every character in Smash getting an Amiibo? Or just select ones? If everyone, that means Shulk gets one! I so need that.

 

[BassForever]

Isn't every character in Smash getting an Amiibo? Or just select ones? If everyone, that means Shulk gets one! I so need that.

As far as we know eventually all Smash characters will get an amiibo

 

[MicH]

That would be the only Xenoblade figurine, wouldn't it? I would have to get that as well!

False equivalence.
