I like most people here, enjoy the Chuggaconroy channel very much. I will enjoy playing as Shulk. However am I the only one who finds the trailer lacking something? My two favorite trailers are the ones for Palutena, Lucina, and Robin. I like how we got a clear sense of their personalities and game play. With Shulk's trailer Never got that sense.

...I'm not familiar with Xenoblade Chronicles, so I'm not that excited about Shulk joining the fray.

However, I AM excited about Pac-Man joining the fray. As the trailer for him points out, he's from same year as Mr. Game and Watch, one of my favorite characters in a Smash context. He also pulls moves not just from his own games, but from other Namco arcade games like Galaga (which incidentally often shared a cabinet with Mrs. Pac Man). We see him not only deploy Galaga ships, but also use the Galaga tractor beam, most likely as his grab.

He may end up a close second to Mr. Game & Watch when I get the game.

...

However, he didn't appear in any of the leaks. Is this Nintendo saying "[EXPLETIVE REDACTED] you and your leaks, this is our game, it's not finished, we control what characters will be in there, and you WILL still be watching the trailers to see who wre add after that leak!"?

there's this dude who does youtube game reviews and he said that shulk would be a perfect fit for smash bros.

(Also, yay, somebody else who likes Chuggaaconroy!_

Shulk is REALLY going to be in Smash 4?! Like, the main character of THE GREATEST RPG RELEASED FOR THE WII OF ALL TIME?! I wonder how they are going to map his moves to the Smash controls. And that ending... is Metal Face actually going to be a Smash villain?

*takes deep breaths lest he hyperventilates*

It seems that my nephew is going to be short a Wii U once Smash 4 comes out...
