I hope one of Sonic's taunts is him tapping his foot like he's waiting, or waggling his finger.

Fox looks like he's a DBZ character powering up!

Awsome, Link's taunt teh secks! Smilie

Yeah Fox's one looks like the UP+B Move... When he powers up and then shoots himself up in the air on FIRE! <3

I see all these people insulting the Nintendo corporation because of the lack of mature content. Yet there is something about Nintendo (at least their games) that strikes a certain unadulterated feeling of joy!!!  Pokemon Y - 1048-9263-5562

Could be a dumb question, but have you noticed that every character that has ever been an unlockable in the smash bros series hasn't been shown yet?Smilie

Yup. I'm beginning to worry that neither Captain Falcon or Luigi will return, like the fate of our fair Nessy. Smilie

I was thinking the same thing. That would be great.

No, don't say that! They have to keep Luigi, they just have toSmilie... and C. Falcon too I guess.

Anyways, cool, this'll be fun. I'd like to do a different taunt every once in a while. I wonder if Luigi's will still do damage, if he's still in it...Smilie

Isn't that because unlockables are secret...and they wouldn't want you knowing all the secrets of the game before it was even released.

Krystal seems more likely than falco at this point.Smilie

Shame that Master Chief isn't in this....his taunt would be teabagging....:p

There is no way Luigi is going to be left out, and I'd say it's highly unlikely Falco won't be returning...

I don't understand why people want Falco anyway. He literally WAS Fox with a minorly different blaster.

I mean WTF!!! They took the Link's N64 taunt!

I hope it has the "blink" on the tip of the sword like in the N64 Smilie

I don't think they'll throw Luigi in the game 'cause they said they didn't want clone fighters [still I'm looking forward to him Smilie]

Yup, he was, and I didn't like him one bit. He didn't handle all that well (jumping around just felt awkward.. ), and his gun wasn't anything special either. Plus, I just really dislike his head. I'm not really into birds with big foreheads and stuffs.. Ah well, here's to hoping he's left out this time XD

It's argued Falco will have a new moveset, because it seems like it'll just be him, Fox & Krystal from StarFox.

What about NESS!? Smilie What about HIM?!? Smilie if he's not in it, then who's to say Luigi & Falcon aren't in it too!! Smilie

My theory, Snake, Lucas, Sonic & King Dedede are secret characters. We already know Snake & Sonic are. Also, I doubt you would start out with 3 Kirby characters, surely King Dedede is secret, also the week breaks between announced characters had been getting bigger, when it used to always be a character a week, this started around the time Snake was revealed...

Snake & Sonic are secret, & Snake was revealed before Lucas. Then there's this screen:

We have no reason to believe this is Beta; Besides, if it was, why hasn't a "beta" screen of the character select been revealed yet?[/mytheory]

So... I only hope that Falcon & Luigi return... if Luigi doesn't return, then I will have a rampage...

Who cares about Ness he isn't even well known over here and Lucas look exactly the same.

Capatain Falcon will probably be in it because the samurai goroh assist trophy was already revealed.

Can't see luigi being left out, would seem rather silly.

Smilie NO HE ISN'T Fool! Falco might have the same moves as Fox but trust me he is a whole different egg from Fox!

Superlink that screenshot doesn't have lucas...so its got to be old?

EDIT: or maybe those are the characters you start off with nd the others not shown are hidden characters?

Finally someone notices...! Falco is awsome he jumping is much much better then Fox, he might be slower and a bit heavier than Fox but he is more powerful! FALCO >>> FOX
