Perfect. A romhack inserting him into Binding Blade would improve the game immeasurably.

Why are people still clinging onto this daft line of thinking?
On 3DS DLC all goes on the SD card and is extra data so no space needs to be reserved for anything.
It is much more plausible that the download code card saying 2.1GB and the game taking up 1.2GB is a printing error (heck the Wii U eShop overestimates space needed for games sometimes...then doesn't let you start the download because of these) and as such is proof of nothing.
Much of Melee was FMV (Mario Sunshine and Wind Waker are similar). I think the PAL release had to have 50Hz and 60Hz versions of these so that awesome 12 minute special video got cut (there are a few seconds accessible by the debug menu though).
I need GBA remix now...

I meant new characters as opposed to old characters (aka cut veterans).
I hope we get 5 characters at most as DLC. The roster is big enough as it is now.

Wha...? Why would you hope for less characters?

Man, that's not even big enough to bring back the Brawl vets!

Call me an idiot for this question but is the Wii U version going to be any different than the 3DS one animation-wise or exactly the same???
I know about the better framerate for the assist trophies.

I think the Wii U one will be different. Like there are some animations like peach hair not (gloriously) flowing in the 3DS version(Its stale as fuck) that is in the Wii U version.
edit: oh yeah... idiot!
It looks to use mostly the same animations, with exceptions for some characters who only have 2D faces in the 3DS version and Olimar's Pikmin. Having significant animation differences between platforms in this sort of game would be a massive drain on development.
I've been praying for the exact same thing, it's a great opportunity to tighten the unification between platforms and promote system sales. DLC will happen, I can't imagine them wasting this opportunity to rake in cash. The question is whether it will be crossbuy or attached to Amiibo. Or both, I'd really enjoy purchasing Amiibos to unlock new chars and then using them to transfer data. Keeping my fingers crossed.

It's not a matter of "will this be profitable" anymore. There's no question people will jump on board for more Smash content. And while Sakurai is a control freak, I'm sure he can be convinced. There's no doubt in my mind we will get some form of DLC.
When it comes or what they may be, who knows. Someone mentioned alts and stages but no characters. As shitty as that would be, I think it's plausible. But this is Smash, anything can happen.
Greninja's up B pushback looks really crazy and unpredictable. Here's a video of the pushback affecting an unknowing Marth player as they do their up B, rocketing them up off the screen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9i7GX7R1amk#t=3m35s
Sakurai's previous comments and the method of delivery chosen for the MK8 DLC make me think that they'll choose to do one or two large packs, which would probably contain things like alts, stages, trophies, music, custom moves, Mii outfits and Stage Builder parts if they're still in. Though considering the two versions, I'm not sure whether they'd sell characters separately or have them part of paid bundles on both versions, perhaps with a discount for buying both versions.
Ideally, they'd add things like veterans as part of free updates with newcomers and new clones saved for the paid DLC, but I doubt that would happen considering the potential profit.
No seriously sakurai, why does fludd even exist? =/

I often wonder what some veterans would be like if they were redone from scratch.
The newcomers have such interesting mechanics to them, the Luma, KO Meter, Monado arts etc. Veteran movesets feel so basic in comparison, especially the 64 vets.
Edit: I even mean stuff like how Mega Man is so faithfully recreated animation wise, and Shulk's jump and stuff. Like Mario is nothing like how he is in the games, not even his fireball bounces along like it does in SMB.

amazing
Samus and the different beams and Visors of the Prime series would be great.

Two large releases makes sense. I'd like to think some veterans could be given free of charge, but I would guess they would bundle newcomers with them. I actually hadn't given thought to trophies and music. Depending on the content, they could make these potential "DLC bundles" well worth the money.

Music makes sense and should be fairly easy, but I think we'd only get more trophies specifically related to the characters - for example, the in-game model of new or returning characters, any cameos in the characters' moveset, or elements in a stage. I don't think they'd go out of their way to add other unrelated trophies. Well, unless these are released as big packs and there are new modes too.
It'd be interesting to see what Sheik would look like, especially seeing what Hyrule Warriors did with her lyre. Not even mentioning Ganondorf...

in my dreams they add Paula into smash with ness's moveset and rebuild ness from the ground up to make him more like how he is in earthbound.
...and then they add jeff and poo.

Yeah, that makes sense. I don't know about new modes, but I'm on board with everything else. I'm just hard-pressed to think of a bundle concept that makes sense. Maybe a single character per bundle, but it comes with a stage, some music, new trophies, etc? I'd buy into that.
For example, a Pokemon Red/Blue bundle? Comes with Mewtwo, a new stage, some Red/Blue mixes for Music, some new Pokemon trophies.

Sunflora confirmed by Serebii? nice.

This just reminds me that they could have at least made Paula a Ness alt in the same vein as Alph. What a missed opportunity.

I don't think I've ever seen someone hope for as few characters as possible.

I dunno, wouldn't Sunkurn make more sense with it's Pokeathlon stats? Maybe Sunflora was just it's final smash.
I've been saying for a while that I want Pokey/Porky in. He's a really important character in the series and I'd love to see him in.
Having the rest of the Earthbound party would be cool too though!

I'm now sad this didn't happen.
Sunkern has the lowest BST of any Pokémon in the game. The possibility of it having all 5 stars in each Pokéathlon stat was Game Freak making a joke.

Whiff Wars. That looks like me when I play Sheik though. "One of these fucking kicks has to connect eventually!"

Oh, I see.
Anyway, I hope it's a mix of old and new with many more than just five. Unique vets (like the Ice Climbers) should get top priority.
MOTHER content wishlist? Ninten as Ness alt. Bring Lucas back. Upgrade Jeff to playable character; lasers, rockets and other gadgets as abilities, Multi-Bottle Rocket as final smash. Cave of the Past as a level, Giygas as stage boss, phone calls ala Star Fox - Dad for Ness (works for Ninten, too) and Tony for Jeff. Loid or Apple Kid replaces Jeff's AT.
Promptly take "too much content for just MOTHER" people and show them Kid Icarus' representation.
Not sure if this was posted yet but...
Zero vs Otori FT10 (First to 10) Online Set
Otori is a Japanese Smash player, just so you know -- he was really good in Brawl iirc. It's an hour long video but it's a really good set and peek into some early high level play.

Yeah, I agree. Unfortunately, 3DS can't handle Ice Climbers, so I don't think that would be possible, and I doubt we'll get Snake back.

We'll get both back, somehow. I don't really care if it's on the 3DS version or not.
The fact that we know the Icies run on the Wii U version means they should be the first DLC out. (Or just include them with the standard version.)
Oh, I missed that lol.

It depends if they want to stick with the "same roster for both versions" rule.
If there's really no way to have them back, I wish they could at least put Popo/Nana as stand-alone characters.
Starting to get more character customisations, but it's still grindy. Ah well, should be done before ORAS at this rate
Went into the multiplayer Smash Run without the others, has made them turn up far more. Bit ridiculous.
How much time do you think you have spent trying to get all the moves?
I dunno, I get frustrated a lot and give up when I see repeats
I'd say a good 5 hours, only maxed two characters (Pikachu & Greninja). Focusing on Pokémon first, will update my site with them, then do the rest in bulk as time allows over the next month
