Kid Icarus' Palutena Joins Super Smash Bros. Wii U/3DS - Update

Well I hope he makes it in for your sake then. Again, I am 95% sure he will return. Nintendo may not have much more interest in F-Zero, but I'm sure if Sakurai wants Captain Falcon in the game, he will be there! >

Well Pacman and Game and Watch is confirmed for the game as well. Sakurai used Pacman during the event. So that's two more characters, but still no Falcon for me. T^T

That's right, kinda wish Pacman had a trailer, maybe he will get one tomorrow. Anyway, lots of characters still have not been announced to return, plus Captain Falcon has always been a secret character.

Edit: Actually, here it is! XD

He'll be there don't worry, I don't think they would get rid of one of the original 12 fighters. Maybe Jigglyuff(well at least that is my wish anyway.) No offense to Jigglypuff, but there are so many cooler/more relevant Pokemon that deserve some spotlight.

But...but the Falcon should have been announced with the others originally seeing as there obviously isn't another F-Zero game coming. T^T
I just want my Falcon along with my new F-Zero, but it just feels like Nintendo wants the Falcon to die. *hugs copies of F-Zero GX, GP Legend, Climax (yes I imported it), X, and Maximum Velocity*
If anything let Sumo make the game then, or SEGA, or both seeing as both those companies are strangely really good at making racing games when Sonic isn't the only franchise present.

Samurai Goroh is an Assist Trophy. I'm fairly confident that they wouldn't do that if Falcon wasn't coming back. He was unlockable in both N64 and Brawl, so they probably aren't going to reveal him prior to release and leave him as a secret character for players to unlock. That's exactly what they did for Brawl. Don't worry so much! He'll be there.

Man she look quite OP. So wait, Dark Pit will be another character? He better have a different moveset to Pit so he's just not a clone. Also Nintendo should really invest in a SSBB anime!

 

[Kaimax]

Just make a Smash Bro anime already... lol, That was awesome.

LADY PALUTENA! LADY PALUTENA! LADY PALUTENA!

They really can't do too much more to sell me on this game.

As for those hoping to see Captain Falcon and Samurai Goroh, the later was seen in the tournament as an assist trophy, as was Shadow the Hedgehog. So while that somewhat solidifies them not being playable characters, Captain Falcon has yet to be confirmed or denied yet (same for, say, Tails).

Until October, no one knows. Even Bayonetta of all people could be confirmed for all we know.

Before you say it doesn't happen:
-What about Snake?
-What about Sonic? Twice?
-What about flipping Megaman?
-What about freaking Pac-Man?

It ain't over 'till it's over!

I truly hope that little anime short is a part of something bigger!

 

[Zakarath]

Ooh, SSB anime-style? Looks pretty coo- WAIT IT'S DUBBED NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[CelestDaer]

So... a mixture of Peach and Zelda?

Japan is Fast. Just announced yesterday and the image boards are already flooded with Palutena artwork. Yes, including Rule 34.

Pfft, took them that long. When Zero Suit Samus was first announced for Brawl the fan art, including the rule 34, was up only in a matter of hours. XD

I doubt Dark Pitt would be his own character. As a palette swap for Pitt, that's a lot more likely. Also, the anime needs to be animated by Shaft then since they are the ones who did the animation for Palutena's trailer, and Palutena's Revolting Dinner.

I have reservations about this, mainly because it just feels a bit iffy to be playing god. (hurr hurr) Her canon power level just doesn't scale well with the smash bros universe. Feels like a downgreade, even if she is still a very well designed character (and brings up the number of female brawlers, even if two of them are the same person)

Oh, and still waiting on Captain Falcon, the most memetic of fighters. Can't believe I'm still this exited even though I don't have a WiiU, and I'm probably not going to get one after what the Wii did to me.
