I remember that Zelda was announced like a week after Rosalina because that's when A Link Between Worlds was released in Japan, so...

Maybe they're waiting for Tropical Freeze to come out in North America to announce Diddy Kong? I dunno.

What I think I like the most about LM's reveal is that it went against what people (myself included) expected and didn't reveal a Donkey Kong character, but instead something nobody anticipated. That keeps people guessing and makes the reveals feel fresh and awesome. I'm thinking in a week or two we MIGHT see Diddy, but it'll probably be over a month before we see another newcomer.

However, that could be completely untrue as well. That's what I like about the Smash reveals they've done so far. There's not really a predictable pattern, though sometimes the announcements coincidence with the release of a game. That seems to mostly just apply to the vets, though, newcomers don't seem to have any pattern at all.

GUYS
YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW FUCKING MUCH I WANTED LITTLE MAC FROM THE BEGINNING AND NOW HE'S HERE
I'M HYPED AS FUCK
I'M MORE HYPED THAN I WAS WHEN MEGA MAN WAS REVEALED THIS IS LIFE-CHANGING
IT'S LITTLE MAC
JESUS CHRIST IT'S LITTLE MAC

FEEL THE BURN!!
PICK UP THE PACE!!
GET SERIOUS, BABY!!
GIVE EM THE GOODS!!!


I'm pretty hype right now too. I: I actually can't stop thinking about Smash now. I'm at that point that I won't be sated until release day.

I want Doc. to do more than just be a voice in the trailer somehow too...

I'm betting assist trophy. I mean, Doc /does/ have some moves

As long as there is plenty of chocolate, I will be happy.

I could see Doc walking around as a more passive assist trophy, almost as a joke, where he gives the players helpful (or maybe not-so-helpful) tips. However, if he gets hit, it'll knock his chocolate bar away and he'll get MAD.

It'd be even more hilarious if the disclaimer popped up the moment you did so.

The timing of this was just perfect, if only for how it made Rock look just before the hit connects.

"oh .... SHIIIIII-"

I like this reveal better than any Kong.

You forgot "Other fans: K. Rool"

Personally, I'm hoping that Mac himself won't have any voices at all
instead, Doc'll just drop commentary on the match whenever Mac's in the mix




and when Doc is selected, Alphonzo will provided good alternative commentary instead

Wait, they could always put Doc. into one of Mac's taunts and make it character specific insults. It wouldn't be too farfetched to do.

I want the exact opposite of this. Smash does not need a narrator.
