GOD'S FAVORITE CHAMPION

Some of the new animation is also incredible. I'm honestly really impressed how much was improved just from the base assets they had from last time.

Has anyone confirmed if Cappy is an attack or just a feature thing that pops up with his eyes?

He's only in a taunt and he'll looking around during some moves

Mario’s dad, Dr. Mario, felt terrible to play in sm4sh. I hope they make him a little better this time around.

They rotated pika's neutral stance like 20 degrees towards the camera so you're not looking at them in profile and it makes them look way more dynamic, I'm really excited for everything about this game.

Someone post the picture of Sakurai when he was working on Kirby, when he somehow looked 20 years older than he does today.

basically the only reason he looks older in that one old pic is because he's actually smiling and you can see his laugh lines

If Shadow does turns out to be an echo fighter I hope we also get ones for other 3rd party characters like Ken.

Ms. Pac-Man, Zack, Proto Man, and Liquid would be good. I don't know about Bayonetta.

Also Dark Link has technically appeared in Smash before and should return as an Echo.

It also looks like they stopped letting him outside about 20 years ago, he gets progressively paler over the years.

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.

Honestly, with DLC and everything, I hope they make an Echo for EVERYONE. I can't think of any character besides like, Duck Hunt or ROB who couldn't have a good one.

timing should be pretty tight though, so you can't really react to it and it's more of a predictive thing

They could have some fun making echo characters from other ip's, like how Ganondorf started as a Falcon clone. I bet you could probably pull off a decent Chris/Jill/Leon from Resident Evil with Snake's moveset, or fit Bionic commando in as a Zero Suit Samus echo.

Insane pipe-dream option: Make a Contra guy one of the new fighters, opening the floodgates for Gunstar Heroes, Metal Slug, and Cuphead echoes, respectively.
