I wouldn't say convinced so much as speculated. Glad to hear he's in though.

I hope he gets a new recovery in the Flying Pikmin. The one in Brawl was horrible.

I love the addition of a whistle sticking out of his helmet, and I'm definitely glad he stuck with Olimar instead of choosing one of the new players in Pikmin 3.

That being said, I do hope that the new pikmin show up in this game, since they could definitely add to Olimar as a fighter.

Yeah the Flying Pikmin would make a great recovery. On top of showing Olimar we get a look at his new stage too!

So here's what we've got for confirmed stages... Here we go!

3DS Version
Battlefield
Super Mario 3D Land
New Super Mario Bros.
Spirit Tracks
Gerudo Valley
Arena from Fire Emblem Awakening
Nintendogs

Wii U Version
Battlefield
Final Destination?
Skyloft
Smashville
Wii Fit
Distant Planet
Dr. Wiley's Castle

Honestly, I wouldn't count one of the Pikmin 3 Protagonists out yet. Olimar is seen using the Purple and White pikmin from Pikmin 2, but there's no screenshots showing Rock or Winged Pikmin. Could be that Alph, Brittany, or Charlie will show up as a sort of a Lucas/Luigi clone of Olimar using those two pikmin alongside the three classic ones.

(I remember TSR's reaction to Olimar during the Smash Bros Dojo. It was wonderful )

Is Dr. Wily's fortress even going to be a Wii U exclusive at this point?

Don't get me wrong but I think it's just a wee bit silly that we're going by what just the screen shots have shown us so far.

I certainly remember when everyone was pissed when it wasn't Captain Falcon getting confirmed.

I guess they are going to put Wily's Fortress with a design that's based on one of the Game Boy Mega Man games, or probably King's Fortress from Mega Man and Bass. Who knows, we might even get a stage from Mega Man Zero/ Battle Network.

Say, wouldn't it be cool if the next "Pokemon Stadium" stage is called "Pokemon Colosseum"?

Except Megaman and Bass was a SNES game long before it was on GBA.

It's a wee bit silly to utilize and organize our information in ways which are confirmed and awaiting further information before modification to the confirmed data?

I suppose, then again I'm only just saying.

Now what is this little bugger supposed to be and where is this from?

This is something new to me, considering it's in Smash.

It's the ship from Pikmin 3:

Pikmin 3 gon be good.

Hey guys! Sakurai updated with a picture of a new stage for the 3DS. It's a Kid Icarus Uprising stage.

I'm 95% certain that the stage is from Chapter 11 of the game. I'm hoping one of these two is true:

a.) It's like the Castle Siege stage from SSBB where it cycles between different areas
or
b.) There are other stages from KIU. This one isn't really that memorable IMO.
