They also show up often in Classic and are used as "Hazard Free" stages in All Star.
Classic Mode before the big 8 player map patch was really poor with stage selection.

This is the only period since release where we haven't been given any inkling what will be coming. I would think they'd want to keep it on everyone's mind in at least some small form.

no we were given an inkling just a few months ago as a trophy

That's why I'm pretty exciting about next announcement because we actually have no clue who we would expect to see, other than Wolf.
It might happens but it might not happens.
It was a great ride with SmashGAF but it's too bad that everyone bailed out in this thread. Only few of us left here.

You know I was thinking for a second to change my wording to avoid the obvious joke.

Pac-Man and Mii actually were leaked alongside Little Mac.
Did you all see the Isaac Smashify came out today? I was waiting for him since they announced the whole project, and I think I had too high of hopes. Something in his face shape looks wonky. Maybe his eyes? I have such nostalgia for Golden Sun, but I still haven't replayed them since they were put on VC. I am a terrible fan.

And where is the beard?
They modeled him in 3d instead of just drawing him so he looks lifeless with those dead eyes. And the textures look to be ReBoot quality.

Dude from Japan on Reddit's AMA of a Japanese gamer said not to expect Isaac because Golden Sun isn't really that popular or remembered in Japan
IntelliHeath

Yeah, I appreciated that they did all works but Isaac's face don't look right and came off somewhat creepy.
He didn't exactly said NOT TO EXPECT, but yes he confirmed it's popularity is pretty low.
Same here but it's fun to rooting for him.

I have no idea what Nintendo franchises are even popular in Europe. I didn't even think Nintendo was popular in Europe as a whole...

I was gonna say this, lol. This was something I believed since it seemed the person really had an eye for the differences in Ness' design, like his shirt being untucked and "perfect" looking, and how different his face looked in general. He looks great in Smash 4 though all things said and done.
This is what I homed in on too. The texture on the boots seems a little "too" realistic, and juxtaposes with the rest of it, and the face/hair are too anime, with the massive eyes his original design doesn't have. The hair needs something too, maybe some feathering on the edges. Doesn't look like it's been hand done, more a 3D model so that's probably why. If the Smashified guys read this though please don't take offense, what those guys do is awesome and I love their videos, just a critique though~ (Pls do Dixie or Krystal at some point <3)
Well recently big titles In Europe the UK have been Wii Sports, Wii Fit, Brain Training and Tomodachi Life which are all already represented.
I suppose we have Ray from Disaster Day of Crisis and Doshin the Giant. And who can forget the classic European exclusive, Wii Chess?
Technically one could make an argument that Sonic is that representative, since, at least in the UK (Europe is too diverse for me to make further comment) he was bigger than Mario.

Playable character from European Truck Simulator is the perfect third party rep.

Those characters would be perfect vehicle character because you could see their expressions (or emotions) middle of fights, like Clown Cart.

I can't believe Stunt Race FX keeps getting the cold shoulder, not even a remix on a Mario Kart stage.
The third party door is wide open, lets all share in the thrill of a good solution.

That reminds me there isn't an Excitebots trophy in the game despite being a recentish Wii game with easily ripped models.
I guess Nintendo wants to forget a game that sold like 10,000 copies exists, but Captain Rainbow has a bunch of stuff in Smash 4. Although that might be because Mac is in the game.

Y'all should take one for the team and get Mike Jones in this party. StarTropics was released there as well after all!

So September 13th, the one year anniversary of Smash Bros 4 3DS.
What better way to celebrate than to remind everyone that they were slightly disappointed at release that Wolf wasn't in the game.
Also since they'll have Fox and Falco in the studio anyway, at least Fox will probably get lines in Wolf's trailer.
- Lylat Cruise, Space Armada music from Brawl is playing.
- Fox reflects a missile from Samus and then rushes forward, grabs her and forward throws for the kill.
- Fox: "Sector is clear, returning to base"
- Suddenly a Wolfen fires on him, Fox spot dodges and then runs to the edge,
- Fox: "WOAH, what was that... Wolf!? You're back?"
- Wolf: "Ha, can't keep me down, Star Fox. Let's see if your skills have improved"
- WOLF CAN'T LET YOU DO THAT
- Cue Star Wolf theme from Smash 4 and gameplay montage

I would have loved either that or an Endless Ocean stage; anything which went for an underwater environment. Of course, in the end we had neither...
Seeing what happened to Isaac, I have to agree. Though it is a shame the series is so obscure - a playable character would have always been out of the question, but it had so much material for stages, enemies, assist trophies and bosses...

Who doesn't enjoy a good fake text leak from 4Chan?
This is the second time Agent 3 has been mentioned. The other time was that dude who claimed to be a friend of the original ESRB leaker.
Late October would be absurd.

I know. I really wanted that Gabbiano Stage! Maybe I could go back to the Ballot a 4th time...
Agent 3 would be an interesting choice and would be easier than modeling different versions of an Inkling. I would be more than okay with this. That would also mean an Agent 3 Amiibo, which would also be less confusing than releasing another Inkling girl or boy. Although, there are multiple Mario amiibo so that probably doesn't matter.
Finally something to look at.
Agent 3 would at least cover the idea of confusion with the costumes. I'm still of the opinion to not expect a character from Splatoon.
We'll get a bunch of vets, and one newcomer who is prob third party. That's where I'm placing my bets right now.

Yeah, even if this rumour was true, getting Solid Snake to return is a lot like trying to squeeze water from a stone. It won't happen, especially with how loopy Konami has been as of late.Who doesn't enjoy a good fake text leak from 4Chan?

But what vets? After Wolf, none really jump out as obvious.
Snake is weird licensing nonsense, Ice Climbers are technical issues, and Squirtle/Ivysaur/Pichu are not all that popular and are more Pokemon DLC.
The more I think about Agent 3, the more I realize it's the perfect Splatoon rep.
- It solves the issue of different gear. Agent 3 only has one uniform and one gun. Access to three different grenades opens the moveset up as well.
- Alt colors wouldn't be as complicated as Inkling, instead being recolors to the gear, hair, skin tone and gender, versus entirely different outfits and hats.
- Agent 3 is visually different from the Mii costume and older Splatoon Amiibo.
- At its core, Agent 3 is a playable Inkling, but rooted into a specific character with a consistent costume, which makes it easier to make individual.

Why not? I would love to have Endless Ocean stage!
Did the leaker took a look at my wish list and made the fake leak from it? :|
Isaac, Snake, Inkling (Agent 3) and Wolf came from my wish list that I made few pages ago. I'm totally up for Dixie Kong too! More Donkey Kong Country representative is bonus! Unfortunately, it's probably fake!
I don't think Shadow Mose Isle would come back due to several reasons.
Why not?
I second this. I'm glad that Saki is back as assist trophy, and I would pay couple of dollars for Isaac to come back as Assist Trophy. It's better than nothing.

If Shadow Moses came back, 100% guaranteed it wouldn't have the codecs.
Or if they did, they wouldn't be character specific, and they'd record a handful of generic ones, like how the Star Fox easter eggs work.
There's also the issue of Hayter. He was difficult to get for Brawl, and with Konami burning that bridge, where does that leave Snake's voice?

A part of me wants to believe that ice climbers could still return. Nintendo talking to Konami about an old IP to license could lead to Snake.
And considering Pokemon is still very popular with most cuts, why not? Pichu especially could return, considering we may have had plusle-minun replacing him in brawl. The popularity of vets in Japan also leads me to believe they're more likely.

That's one of few biggest reason why I'm unsure about Snake's return. Shoot, I would love to see codecs coming back but I doubt it since DLC stages are parity to both versions.

Shadow Moses is also one of the more graphically intense Wii stages, so down porting it to the 3DS would be tricky.
They might have to cut the Metal Gears in the background on the 3DS. Which isn't unprecedented (RIP walking Chozo), but would be disappointing.
Yea, Pichu returning would make some sense. That would round out the Melee vets, besides Ice Climbers who are more of a Brawl cut. Plusle/Minun as alts would be a nice bonus as well and get some third gen into Smash.
He's super easy to bring back too. At minimum effort he has one attack different from Pikachu (Up Smash) and a different idle animation. But I'd really hope they'd go further. At least fix his obviously broken run animation from Melee.

The only thing about Pichu is that the basis for his character in Smash is "low-budget, low-effort, intentionally bad character", and even if all that gets changed up, it would feel weird having him be paid DLC. I wouldn't have complained if he had been brought back as a joke character and total clone in the game's base roster, though - but I don't see much point in including him otherwise. I think Wolf is the only cut veteran we will see as DLC.
