So the leaks were really fake I guess
Super Smash Bros
-
-
Sakurai is such a troll.
NO, YOU HAVE YOUR CHANCE TODAY!
-
I like the microsoft movie editor esque text towards the end there
-
Holy crap who saw all that coming?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
-
It seems I was the right all along by not believing the leak, awesome :D
-
I guess that Lucina is Marth's alt costume.
Now that the leak seem to be proven fake, I'm in hope mode that Shulk will be in. I'm playing Xenoblade right now and I see so much potential in him.
-
''Looks like i'll get my chance another day..'' Best line i have ever heard
-
It looks like Lucina has the same moveset as Marth. Also, was that Chrom doing Great Aether? Does that mean he has the same moveset as Ike? Are they skins? Or maybe Marth and Ike are skins of them?
-
chrom isn't playable. Site updated apparently but so much traffic
-
-
I'm so glad we don't have to worry about that dumb leak anymore. ..Probably.
-
I'm going to die from a sheer hype attack, now the wait for the game is going to be even harder :I
-
fuck fuck i missed the video….you guys aren't fooling me? no joke? i need to lie before,....before I faint.
-
Lucina most likely alt Marth.
Chrom is Robin's FS. Sad for the character, but really psyched about Robin. Golden Sun repesentative and Shulk chances kind of sank again.
The good old Captain still as stilish as ever.
-
Lucina's a separate character on the website, so she isn't an alt of Marth.
Honestly, I greatly prefer this over getting Chrom - I wanted Robin in for a while, and while four characters seems like a bit much for Fire Emblem, I'm glad to see that Lucina's in as well!

But she doesn't have a newcomer box. It says Newcomer, but it's boxed like she's a Veteran.
-
You guys, I'm so happy.
It's like Sakurai hacked all my hopes and dreams and he's making them happen.
-
But it doesn't seem like Chrom is playable. He only seems to be a part of Robin's Final Smash. Does that mean the leak was false? Or maybe the leak points out characters that ARE in the game, but not playable.

I feel you, I really do.

Sal Romano said Shulk would be revealed today, so it's completely false. AND I FOR ONE LOVE IT.
-
Lucina is a separate character but probably has the same moveset as Marth, because her character is only one square long in the select screen on the site, while newcomers are always two.
Really hyped for the Avatar, his moveset seems really interesting, combining magic and swords. Let's see how his weapon select is gonna work. He's also the 4th character that has male and female versions.
Poor Chrom, though, he only gets to be a Final Smash. Maybe he can be an Ike alt, his model is already there. -
Man, Robin looks really fun and unique.. I assume he will get alternates similar to the villager. It really looks like Lucina is a Marth costume despite Sakurai trying to make me think otherwise, all her moves are identical to Marths. She also didn't get as much attention as other newcomers. Which is fine, I'm just happy to be able to play as her.
-
Look at this, guys. Look at this and rejoice:
-
Lucina most likely alt Marth.
Chrom is Robin's FS. Sad for the character, but really psyched about Robin. Golden Sun repesentative and Shulk chances kind of sank again.

Well, I don't know about it hurting Golden Sun's chance, since I already saw those chances as being astronomically low. I still really want a GS rep, but the series kind of stalled out awkwardly. On the other hand, Smash would be a great way to raise interest in the series again and maybe motivate the sequel to Dark Dawn that we never got, but somehow I don't think that's the plan.
-
I wonder, will those be the only ways Robin can look or will you be able to make him look like how you did in Awakening.
-
Sorry, can't admire. Staring in disbelief at Robin's poster art.
Goddam it, so many mains. SO MANY MAINS.
-
By the way, have you noticed those silver/golden colours for the Captain? Fabulous.
-
-
So whats up with the evil looking Lucina on the website?
-
So much Fire Emblem in Smash… aaaaand I like it.
-
LOL at sakurai's comment on Miiverse about Captn.
And welcome back, Captain Falcon!! When are you ever getting a new game of your own?
-
I wouldn't say this totally deconfirms the gematsu leak, as there are logical explanations for getting Chrom wrong. (If you're not a Fire Emblem fan for one)
That said, I'm not totally sold on the leak anymore. But there is still much that gematsu got right, so I just hope Shulk is one of those things.
Regardless of all else, not getting Shulk will sour me quite a bit.
-
shulk will be nintendo direct and rhythm kids will be left as surprise. I like the leak, only problem was lucas getting cut imo
-
I want the leak to still be right mainly because I will be so sad to not have Shulk and a Rhythm Heaven rep.
But this stunt today just rekindles all possibilities. It's exciting.
Also, FUCKING ROBIN YOU GUYS. Asddaddssdsszaffd
-
I can now have my husband-wife/Mother-daughter tag-team :P
-
So…basically they introduced these three guys at once because none of them were good enough to get introduced one at a time?
I haven't played much Fire Emblem.
-
After seeing the beautiful trailer, I can say Sakurai is a wonderful, wonderful megatroll.

No matter how many times I rewatch the trailer, I keep thinking that Robin's calling his weapon the Lemonsword.
-
Yup, I know which smash character I'll be cosplaying now for midnight release and stuff.
-
With the website updated, I'm guessing Lucina will have her own slot on the CSS but will be a complete 1:1 clone of Marth. Not that it change anything really. Maybe it will be done that way for faster selection (especially if they both get alts like Lucina getting her masked costume) or they are slightly different gameplay wise (different FS maybe ?).
Pittoo if he's in might get his own slot I guess.
-
Am curious to see how Lucina will play compared to Marth.
-
Guess isn't it now that I will see Ganondorf fighting with a sword.
-
So much hype…
SO MUCH HYPE!!!!! :D I am absolutely shocked by this announcement; Sakurai may have taken all the speculation from the Gematsu leak and flipped it on its end!
-
Whoa very impressive.
I think it's safe to say this was turned everyone exceptions on end. Thoughts on the characters
Cap: Falcon punch, nuff said.
Lucina: felt very fast to me, maybe more of speed sword user compared to ike's power and marth's skill. Much happier with her then chrom.
Robin: and a spell sword, looks interesting, I wonder if the book is a special mechanic.
I was hoping for shulk, but all in all I'm happy.
Edit: Seems Lucina is fully a newcomer, it mentions it on her page, she just didn't get a large link since she and robin share a poster and trailer.
-
So you're now telling me FE has 4 reps now!? Considering I just became a new fan of the series after Awakening, the series deserves it 100%. :D
But the Captain is also back; And my heart is filled with joy…
Sakurai never ceases to surprise us(And troll us. ;p)!
--- Update From New Post Merge ---
I hope there's still some truth to the 2nd leak. I still want some Monado ass-kickery in my Smash... :)
-
I'm worried about Lucina because her moves look really similar to Marths.
Guess Shulk will have to wait just a bit longer.
-
This post is deleted!
-
Im shocked, i dont know what to think anymore. Chrom got screwed, but then again robin looks pretty good i guess, and lucina is just a marth clone? I doubt ill be able to get him to look like the robin from my game, but either way i dont know man, i feel like i should be happier then i am.
-
I love these character intro videos they're so great. Fire Emblem Awakening cutscenes looked so nice and were the only time I ever used the 3d option on my 3ds, also Falcon looks cool as fuck in that artstyle.
I'm super happy Robin is in the game just like I hoped, I'll use female Robin so she's like my avatar, though the face and hair colour are different in mine. Also Lucina's alt costume has to give her the mask.
Went into this expecting Shulk came out of this pleasantly surprised with Robin. Still hoping we get some Monado madness eventually.
-
Well, that was a fantastic reveal trailer! As a new Fire Emblem fan (Awakening being my first exposure to the series), I'm glad to see it get two representatives in Lucina and Robin. Sucks that Chrom will only be part of Robin's Final Smash, but at least he'll be present as more than an assist or regular trophy. I'm loving Robin's move-set, especially since I was partial to lightning magic and Levin Swords, myself. As some of you have already mentioned, hopefully he/she will be customizable, so you can make him/her look like the one you used in Awakening. I'm not holding my breath, though.
Also, I was saddened by the fact that Captain Falcon did not ask Lucina to show him her moves. And that his Falcon Punch was interrupted. These are petty complaints, though, because his reveal as a returning veteran was awesome.
