The news abounds in connection with Nintendo's next bomb.

This time they are new names, in the absence of new faces, which are revealed to us through an interview granted by Masashiro Sakurai to the radio transmission of Tokyo's “The Gaming Show”.

He confirmed that the following characters will appear in the new Smash Bros.

Bowser Jr.
Ridley, the famous enemy of Samus.
Wind Waker Link.

And certain characters will disappear:

Ice Climbers
Mr. Game & Watch
Young Link.

Young Link will not really disappear since he will simply be replaced by the Cell-shaded version and his name will be always the same one.

The fans of Falco will be with the angels, since [Sakurai] has confirmed that the characters who weren't formerly “clones” will remain but will be worked over again to offer a true panel of blows to them.

In his opinion, the lack of interest for Mr. Game & Watch and Ice Climbers was obvious and he has to decide to replace them by Pit of Kid Icarus.

Pit should be the only one representing the “old school” and traditional ones.

[Sakurai] finally affirmed that the total number of characters should approach forty, leaving place for about fifteen new ones and one or two 3rd party characters.

I love WW link, so this is cool... If it's true.  I really don't know how reliable this source is so I'm not going to really believe it yet.

I thought that this was old and a hoax, but I will only believe it when it is on his site.

It sounds real enough to me. Ice Climbers and Mr. G&M were some of the lamest characters. I'm glad to have Pit representing the old school. This is good news, imo.

What the hell man, they were only bad if you sucked as them.  Any character can be made to be the best if you are good at using them.  I just find it hard to believe that Pichu stays and all of these others have to go.  Again, not on his website or on any major game site like Kotaku, Joystiq, Nintendojo, etc.

But his website wasn't updated with Fox a month after announced. So it could be a while.

You think that I care about waiting.  And this information has been said before in almost the same way with Sakurai confirming it as well, but this all happened about a year ago:

http://www.nintendolife.com/articles/2006/06/07/new_super_smash_bros._additions

If this were true, I think that they would have at least mentioned it officially now rather than do exactly the same thing, say the same thing, and then not show anything for it.  If they showed stuff for Fox, then they can do it for the new characters, but they have not.

Gah they have all the characters coded and modelled from the old game, and now they got way more disc space, so why no keep everybody and just add even more? Frankly this is one series where bigger is better and I really don't care about refining gameplay, I just want MORE.

I want Phoenix Wright to be in SSBB.

^B: Take that! (Uppercut)
vB: Objection! (Counter move, like Roy)
>B: Present (Evidence)... which does a random amount of damage, similar to Game and Watch's hammer
B: Hold it! (Scares opponents in close proximity into paralysis)


... it could work. >.>

I saw this a while ago and heard it was false, but I'm not sure.
I hope it is false though because the characters that they said are taken out are good..
If anything they should take out the !@#$% characters like pichu.

Old'd. Fake'd.

Although I wouldn't be surprised if some of those new additions got in. But I don't think characters like Mr. G&W and the Ice Climbers are leaving.
