Super Smash Bros. for Wii U/3DS

I’m sure today’s screenshot is going to open up all sorts of speculation, Sakurai explains the latest third party inclusion:

Yuichiro Takeda, one of the major writers on Xenoblade, has re-tweeted the Japanese announcement about the Super Smash Bros. character reveal coming on Monday. Perhaps it’s a sign that Shulk will be revealed as the latest roster addition? We’ll just have to wait and see.

Nintendo will make the next character for Super Smash Bros. Wii U/3DS known on Monday. The announcement is set for 10 AM ET / 7 AM PT.

Masahiro Sakurai has posted a Miiverse message that covers Monday’s Super Smash Bros. for Wii U/3DS character reveal.

According to Sakurai, the announcement will be streamed live. He also mentioned, “Looks like we’re nearing the bottom of the stash of new challenger videos that we’ve made.”

Here’s Sakurai’s post in full:

The Super Smash Bros. series has got throwbacks to the classics littered literally everywhere throughout the game, but Sakurai takes us even further back in time with today’s screenshots:


And that’s not all:

See? There’s a variety of characters. Huh? One of them looks pretty recent.

Alternate costumes anyone? Today Sakurai shows off some unexpected alternates for some Nintendo mainstays!

Today’s screenshot features Mii Quest’s Dark Emporer once again, as Sakurai explains a cool tie-in to the 3DS software:

Palutena gets the spotlight twice today as Sakurai shows off her huge up-smash attack:

I talked about an attack with a far reach in yesterday’s post, but it didn’t compare to Palutena’s up smash attack! No joke, it reaches really far. It reached so far in this shot that even the rocketbarrels got blown up.

However, it appears it’s not without drawbacks:

That said, if we’re talking just about range, even that can’t beat Palutena’s power, Heavenly Light. It has quite a damage field. However, this is a no-flinch attack, which means the opponents won’t react to the damage!

Today’s screenshot features the Mii Gunner once again, as Sakurai explains one of the possible attacks available to Mii fighters:

The Mii Gunner’s side smash attack may have the farthest reach of all the side smashes…as should be expected from a firearms expert!! Looks like the attack missed this time, though.
