Shulk was also officially announced as a newcomer this morning in the latest Japan only Nintendo Direct.
If you are having thoughts that he is a a clone of Marth/Link, I hope this trailer ends that.
Yes, I believe it.
No, it's completely faked.
I don't care./I don't know.
Xenoblade getting a character made me really happy. I don't even play Smash Bros. and I loved that video.
True beauty exists in things that last only for a moment.
Current Mood: And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe. Maybe this year will be better than the last. I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself. To hold on to these moments as they pass...
...holycrap. That looks far more impressive than the leaked videos made it out to be. Shulk looks to have a little more strategy to him than the mindless slashing of certain other swordsmen as well, which is fantastic. Although I was hoping for a Zanza alternate costume rather than his bathing suit...I suppose it could still be included, though. As long as his Final Smash can include other members of the party - and they have more lines, too - I'm alright with that.
So...potential Metal Face boss fight, and Gaur Plains daytime metal battle remix? HELL YES. I hope, if there is a Metal Face boss battle, One Who Gets In Our Way gets a similarly awesome remix. That boss theme never got old and it was used for the entire game. I suppose The God Slaying Sword is too much to hope for, so I'll pray for the more likely inclusion.
But..."Now it's Shulk time!"? SERIOUSLY? Oh, Shulk...I don't think there are words, really.
