>which is highly unusual
Since when? Haven't the secret characters always remained secret until release?

>>251692751
No? As far as I remember Ness (and Capt. Falcon) were revealed early on in Melee and Brawl.

It was only Jigglypuff who retained the secret joke character gimmick after the original.

>>251693151
Ness and Captain Falcon weren't revealed for Brawl until after the Japanese release.

>>251693151
>As far as I remember Ness (and Capt. Falcon) were revealed early on in Melee and Brawl.
Melee yes, Brawl definitely not. Melee is the exception, for SS64 and Brawl Ness and Captain Falcon were secret characters not revealed until after launch. If you were here on /v/ at the time you'd definitely know this via the UNTIL NOW and TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT memes

>>251693151
>Ness (and Capt. Falcon) were revealed early on in Brawl

No

>>251693028
I wasn't. If anything I got a laugh out of it and took it as a hint since they actually had the nerve to mention them directly during an E3 Direct presentation of all things.

>>251692590
>which is highly unusual

It isn't. What's with all these Ness and Captain Falcon fanboys who don't remember pre-Brawl?

Damn, it's been so long I don't remember. They still made early appearances in Subspace Emissary stages, so they weren't completely secret.

I'd rather see Ninten. Give him a turn to shine.

I really think that part of the script was written by the Robot Chicken guys.

>>251693526
As a Trophy sure.

>>251693515
They were still unrevealed until the launch, Subspace Emissary was pants on head retarded in relation to the unlocking system anyway, which is one more reason that I'm glad to see that it's not returning.

>>251693579
Nintendo still would have approved it, and Reggie did his own voice unless that was a really good impersonator.

>>251693608
As playable.

>That feel when you know in your heart they wouldn't exclude your character but Sakurai keeps making you doubt yourself

>>251693526
>>251693567
I bet Nintendo thinks as Ness as a total replacement for Ninten, like how Peach or even Rosalina are replacements for Pauline.

Well, look at the clay models, the only difference is the way they wear the hat.

It doesn't help that the two are so identical the only way people differentiate them is with that 'kerchief, which Ninten only had in live-action advertisements.

OP here.
Lucas was one of my mains for Brawl.

>know that feel

>>251693962
Thank goodness Lucas came out different. His original designs were just like Ness/Ninten's.

His first 3 designs in EB64, (Before he turned blonde)

>>251695408
Jesus, the middle one is awful.

>>251695050
Nah, it's Pit. That's what he looked like before Kid Icarus Uprising (or Super Smash Bros. Brawl.)

>>251695408
Ah cool

>>251694415
Why do OPs feel the need to say they're OP when they reply to posts in their thread? It's completely irrelevant in this context.

Until now? But Sakurai isn't a rusemaster! He's always honest and straight forward! Everything he does should be taken at face value.

Give me my Lucas back SAKURAI
