Seeing as how you can make a bunch of Miis you could simply make one that fits your playstyle.

I'll be cool with however my Mii turns out. I don't care, just wanna play.

Assuming every character has at least one alt, here's what I'd imagine we might see.
Mario = Dr Mario
Luigi = Dr Luigi
Peach = Motorcycle suit Peach or sporty miniskirt Peach.
Yoshi = Wooly Yoshi
Bowser = Probably Dry Bowser but I'd prefer something like Wart as an alt
Rosalina = ???
Donkey Kong = Retro DK? Mechanical DK from the Mario vs Donkey Kong games?
Diddy = DK Jr or backwards baseball cap and shades like his victory animation in DKC2.
Samus = All I've got is helmetless Samus or different suits.
ZS Samus = ??? Did she have anything interesting in Other M?
Kirby = Yarn Kirby
King DeDeDe = Masked DeDeDe
Olimar = Anyone from Pikmin 2 and 3.
Zelda = Hyrule Warriors style
Sheik = Same as Zelda if Sheik is in HW.
Toon Link = Crawfish pyjamas
Link = Either HW style, SS style or "start of the game" outfit.
Sonic = Sonic Boom style or retro style.
Megaman = Protoman
Pacman = Ms. Pacman

Anyone else, I have no idea because I don't play the games, they have their alts revealed or they've not been confirmed.

True. The appeal of Mii is playing as me and with the custom options available, it does seem strange you can't custom attributes. If you and I played online as ourselves, you'd be power and I'd be speed. Seems backwards. You've always struck me as more speed than power.

My Mii is based on my body type (close as I could anyway). While my gameplay preference leans towards speedsters, this game wants to adapt some semblance of physical ability based on appearance. And I would not be a speedster in real life. I suppose I'd be fast-ish because I'm the skinniest your Mii can be. Not sure how being tall will help, maybe add some range to my normals. I certainly doubt I'd have power with my body slider all skinny.

In any case we need an elaboration of how Miis appearance translates into stats.

I think it's as simple as the taller the stronger, the smaller the faster. If weight played a part, maybe that would help in some way. Maybe skinny being faster and thicker being stronger. So you'd be pure speed and I'd probably end up more average than any of the two extremes.

I'd think taller adds range. Being tall has little to do with power.

The update that revealed this specified height being the difference maker.

Little Mac's alt costume so far was shown to be the classic pink jumpsuit.

He has two. Pink hoody and wireframe Mac.

How would Giga Mac work in the hoody? Will he tear through it, Hulk style or something?

Probably just disappear.

I hope not. He could rip through it or rip it off Hogan style and then it can return when he shrinks back to regular Mac.

Might be a liability to have transitional animation between forms. I suspect there's a reason transformations in Brawl always used some fancy Power Ranger type light effect to hide the replacing models. Bowser-Giga Bowser, Zelda-Sheik, Samus-Zero Suit, Sonic-Super Sonic, all transform with some effects in between. They never actually had transitional animations.

Not too mention something for an alternate attire would be a waste of dev time.

You're right about the transformations. Though, Smash Bros has been unnecessarily detailed before. I was blown away by how detailed the Great Fox trophy was in Melee.

One of the outfits for Mii Gunner. Looks like Conan.

We talking models or animation?

The model of it and Marios denim dungarees.

WWE X Smash Bros

With Pacland being a stage, I really hope they put this music in the game. Preferably as a remix or redux of somekind, like they do with other music tracks.
<iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/F72NaRZ2o9U" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

The tune originated as the cartoons intro theme (which I watched as a child) before being used in the game.

Would be a "markout" moment for me, tbh.

Smash loves doing remixes so that's a strong possibility. Brawl's soundtrack was FAT.

I had read the Japanese Pacland didn't include that music so I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't include it because it means nothing to the Japanese gamers. Same situation with Startropics. It was never released in Japan and has never been referenced in Smash Bros at all.

Mike, the hero in the game, would be cool, even as an assist trophy. Also would like this music to appear but, because it means nothing to Japanese gamers, it's not going to happen.

What is that?

This.

Star Wars reference in Sakurais post about Samus' costume?

Yeah, totally a Stormtrooper reference.

Thought so. Surprised Marios outfit wasn't the 4th of July update.

Yeah you would think so.

I demand a Wario Scottish Saltire outfit!

Just posted on the official Smash Bros Facebook page

A new challenger will be revealed next week, but instead of unveiling on something like a Nintendo Direct we're going to live-stream the 3 minute reveal on the official website at the following times:

North America: Monday 14th July at 07:00 (PDT)
UK: Monday 14th July at 15:00 (BST)
AUS: Tuesday 15th July at 00:00 (AEST)

Must be special for a build up and a live stream.

The live stream will be here:

I can't think of anyone worth this unless they are third party but we have 3 third party characters already. I can't imagine Banjo-Kazooie, Spider-man or Mickey Mouse are going to be revealed.

Original Power Rangers with Megazord Final Smash! :shifty:

Edit: Looked up a video of it. First time I've seen it in 20 years and I enjoyed it more than I really should at my age. :$

lol wut

He'll drop from the rafters at 2:55.

Miyamoto: ITS STING ITS STING WE'RE ALL OUT OF TIME SEE YOU NEXT WEEK EVERYBODY

Sakurai has said we're nearing the last newcomers to be announced. I'm thinking we'll get this reveal on Monday and a big reveal just before release with a reveal between those two.

Just thought. Maybe a release date for the Wii U version with the character reveal?

Bimmy and Jimmy! WOOO!

I bet it's Wreck-It Ralph

Not a newcomer, but I'm willing to bet ROB will come back to the game.
In Tomodachi Life he's mentioned as being a smash brawler.
