Nintendo needs to keep pushing the Miiverse in its marketing because it's just wonderful.

Animal Crossing on the DS outsold all Zelda, FE, Metroid, Starfox, Mother, F-Zero, Kid Icarus, etc. titles. Only franchises that are bigger are Mario, Pokemon and the Wii series. It even got a movie in Japan. So yes AC was a big deal prior to New Leaf.
I'd say Mother and Starfox are a bit over represented in Smash but I hardly see how one character(technically two for Metroid) and two stages is an overepresentation for Metroid and F-Zero especially given that Super Metroid and Metroid Prime are some of the highest rated games of all time and incredibly influential on the gaming industry.
As for Wii Fit Trainer, I hope you have similar views of Mr. G&W and ROB then since she is in a similar category.
Mega Man looks way too perfect. I just... wow. I've wanted him so bad since it was announced that we'd get 3rd party characters in Brawl and now it's happening before my eyes. It kind of sucks that everyone and their grandmothers are going to play as him, thoughHope he's a bit underpowered to make this not the case. I'M SELFISH LIKE THIS.
The only inaccuracy is that he can actually duck.

FE4 was popular and, in Japan, no FEs sold more than it again until Awakening. It still sold worse than FE1-3 though, and FE5 saw a big drop in sales from it. The games released internationally all likely beat it if we add the international numbers though. I really don't think there's any chance we'll see FE4 characters suddenly added to Smash at this point.

Yes. It features in a whole host of marketing and merchandise, and the latest league arc in the anime featured it in a starring role.

Why are people thinking WFT has a flip for Down B? She flips as a normal jump.
Can't say for certain, it's a low chance of happening in the first place and most of the clips didn't have a character running across the entire stage back and forth.
You'd THINK Sakurai would have heard the extremely negative feedback about tripping... but you never ever know. The only way he could keep tripping is if you could tech it.

I remember AC having Gamecube game, but that doesnt matter that this point. AC is indeed big now.
The "overratedness" of some series is issue that goes beyond Smash. I hate when people say that they should release F-Zero & Starfox for WiiU just to increase sales of WiiU. They wouldnt increase it enough to be true saviours.
As for Mr.G&W & ROB? I think they are great. Both do WTF character quite well, haha. As I said WFT in general might be annoying as its from casual game.
Support our heroes!

"Since tripping was the one feature nobody asked for, I decided it was something we wanted to keep in the game this time around."
But seriously, what a hilarious reason to add WFT. <3 you, girl.
I don't get why one would want to use Kaz. Jack Tretton brought the megatons this year, I haven't even seen Kaz.

Looks like I will be playing the 3DS version before Wii U, I own a 3DS XL, but no Wii U yet. I hope it can do online play, unlike Monster Hunter.

AC was released on the gamecube and N64 and they didn't set the world on fire but they were mild hits. The DS entry really turned it into a mega franchise back in 2005 though. Although New Leaf seems to be even bigger than that since they finally stopped redoing the N64 title and made significant changes.
I don't think people who say F-Zero or Star Fox genuinely believe they can save a system. They are cult franchises with a strong dedicated following that you don't hear clamor for outside of message boards(although I still hear people quote and speak fondly of SF64 to this day). I do believe the more variety in ips Nintendo offers, the better off they will be since they can get different audiences that might not normally have purchased a system, imo.
Oh I'm aware of why WFT is disliked but she really represents Nintendo in the exact same manner that Mr. G&W and ROB do. I also don't think WFT is that disliked.

Oh, has anyone played DreamMix TV World Fighters? I wanna know if Snake is good character in that game.
That would also mean that in 3 diff fighting games Metal Gear characters would be top tier. Heh heh.

It will. Every major Nintendo "competitive" Nintendo game on 3DS has online.

Man, this E3 has been amazing with the combo of everything going on with MS v. Sony and Smash coming together:

With the complete dedication to Mega Man's retro design, I wish they'd do the same for certain moves.
Mario's Fireball. The version in Smash is too slow and doesn't really make an impact.
Bowser's Fire breath. SMB1-style long distance fireballs at variable heights. Maybe he should throw hammers too.
Link's sword. Let him fire beams or have multi-hits when he's below 100% damage.
EDIT: ^^^^^ Gawd, Bowser's new model is fantastic!

Marios fireball is significantly sped up in the footage they showed off.

Minus the Xbox, that was my favorite par of the trailer (specially the sound of Pikachu backing away).
At first I thought the game didn't look so impressive, but after checking the developer's video a couple of times I think it looks gorgeous (and the final product might look even nicer).
I gotta say I'm loving the 3ds version's look too. I need these games, this will be a long wait.
Yay thanks for getting the joke and thinking it wasn't a joke
Dude, ZSS talked in Brawl

Bowser really is the most impressive thing yet, I just love how good he looks.

With the way Bowser is now, i'm really curious to how things will change with other characters.
Its all too exciting!

Mario's is the same. Bowser is looking a lot better now. Looks much more menacing.
Assuming Sonic is in. Which I'm 70% sure of.
I hope they make some nice tweaks to him. I always thought giving him a Lucario like effect, except instead of damage output and knock back increasing with damage, it's mostly his movement speed. But I'd be totally fine if it didn't happen. I just see Sakurai doing some really cool stuff this time around lol.
Man this game is gorgeous. Easily the best artstyle in the series. I've enjoyed every entry to the series, presentation, and gameplay wise. I really hope Sakurai can satisfy most of the competitive fans even if they are the smaller part of the Smash fanbase. It would really suck to have to hear Melee fans complain a decade later. Not only that, but it would be nice for them to reward skill more, and being really defensive was too easy in Brawl. My only problems with it.

Changing cant be any worse than the nerfing he got in Brawl.

You know, putting the characters next to each other like this, it's hard to believe Bowser doesn't completely wreck Mario 99% of the time
It was funny because I've been calling him having an actual running animation for the longest. My friends laughed when they come true. He looks great here, way better than Melee and Brawl Bowser, especially Melee Bowser.

Classic strength vs. agility matchup.
I don't like how he stands upright now. I liked his hunched figure in Brawl.
No tripping confirmed, thanks JSchreier!

Technique.
Yeah I might agree with you. I don't really care much about it but I also don't quite like how he stand now.
That's good news. Let's hope he answers the rest of my questions I sent to him!

Hallelujah! That's one bit of Brawl bullshit gone.
Concerning Bowser, I don't know, I'm going to miss his off-model hunched over tank mode design.
YES!

Do you guys know if they've said whether they're going to dial the number of characters down? I think I heard something like that in the past, but I might be wrong.
I want them to go all out. Just imagine the amount of awesome music and stages (I want at least close to 50) this will have.

This is great news, but I hope they don't completely remove it and implement it like this:
I hope it is an option in a Custom Brawl. Put in a slider that determines how often tripping occurs and it will be funny as hell.
Thank god.

Of course, was just speaking to how dangerous Bowser looks there. Sakurai done well.
I'm happy he both asked and felt it was worth putting into a separate article ahead of time.
