The Custom Moveset's being unlockable might make up somewhat for the lack of Unlockable Characters in comparison to Brawl at least. Because that's 8 Special moves to get for each character. (It does make me wonder if the Mii Fighters will have default options or if they'll be the only characters that have all their special moves available from the start)

If Ridley uses his Other M "Roidley" design if he's playable, I'm never playing as him because that design is trash.
Would you prefer no Ridley at all then if the Other M design was the only option (Or at least the default one)?

Personally, for a character like Ridley. At this point, I think Ridley fans should take what they can get. Also something about the Other M design looks like it might be more easier to program then the preferred design. (GP beat me to it, but I think it needs to be said that it's nitpicky to say you won't play as Ridley if he isn't the right design for you. Even if it's a reminder of a bad game, I feel like it's as silly as people not wanting to play as Sonic just because he doesn't have Classic Sonic's design)

Wait! There's a Mother compilation stage? And it's default?

I guess this makes the leaked unlock conditions more likely. This also means that all of the stages may have been unlocked due to Dark Pit's condition. Dang it! Still hoping for a secret stage. There's room for one on the leaked stage select screen.

I never thought about that. You bring up a good point. I can see them having all 12 from the start.

If Ridley is a combination of his classic form (with tiny wings and thinner claws) and his Other M form (shorter neck and stronger build) I won't mind. However, Other M Ridley with no changes would look bad.

no the ridley pic
 
Good Unlock Conditions
Bowser Jr.
Wario
Mr. Game & Watch
Ganondorf
Jigglypuff
Ness
Dr. Mario
Dark Pit
Lucina

Bad Unlock Conditions
Duck Hunt

I can't say for Falco until I play Target Blast, but it looks like a fun mode. Either way, most of the conditions are good. Considering the secret characters that may or may not be in the game, my overall inpression may change based on how hard and how feasible their unlock conditions are.
 
I also think Bowser Jr. might be painful to unlock, better get used to using bowser.
 
i will not be surprised if Robin is top of the tier list and is banned from the tournaments, especially after what a read in the document.
 
I rather see Dark Pit or Palutena being overpowered because Sakurai is putting too much Kid Icarus Uprising content.

Meta Knight is the only character in the history of Smash to be banned. Even then, that rule is only a sometimes thing. Robin does look good though.

Intro cutscene for the demo. The "AKB" on the Mii characters clearly stands for "Akibahara", a location in Japan that likely corresponds to where the demo is taking place. This either means that the actual intro cutscene will feature your own Mii Fighters, or that this is just promotional for that area and the actual intro cutscene will be different.

If it was gameplay footage, then maybe. But this is a pre-rendered cutscene. I can't imagine the Miis on the system would appear in the intro.

The original Super Smash Bros. cutscene changed as you unlocked the hidden four. It's not out of the realm of possibility that your Miis would appear. Also, why would AKB be chosen out of all names?
 
I wonder how you'd unlock Mewtwo, Impa, Ridley and Dixie if the text is real (which I'm sure it is)? I don't give two fucks about Mach Ridley and Chorous Men
 
Mewtwo: An event match of some sort.

Impa: Clear classic with Sheik on hard or higher difficulty.

Dixie: Something involving DK and Diddy

Ridley: Clear classic on the highest difficulty with Samus.
