Where was it officially stated that there would be no more clones?

I don't think you can count Four Swords and Four Swords Adventures as two different games...

Except that they are two different games, with two different stories.  That's like saying I don't think Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask count as two different games.

Snake grabbing Mario:

I don't understand how he's going to grab Bowser, Charizard, or Ivysaur. I can't imaging how that'd look.

I remember he did say this somewhere. That's not to say that clone characters won't necessarily come back. If they do (Ganondorf for example), they'll most likely have different move sets.

I agree with Sarhan. The characters will be back, but with different moves. Let's just hope Ganondorf uses his sword for combat other than for show.

I imagine Ike has taken the place of Marth/Roy, and I don't see them keeping around Dr. Mario.

I hope they keep Dr. Mario so I can show you guys how Dr. Mario should be played. Hopefully Marth will be back too. Don't care much for Roy, but Marth is one of the most commonly used characters and definitely one of the toughest to master, as well as one of my best, so I'd love it if he'd come back so I could use him for our GW tourney. I just hope WDing stays in.

It would be nice to see another FE character, I suppose from the currently localized FE games since most of the world has gotten their hands on it. (though I'd personally like to see Sothe to help induct the release of Radiant Dawn)

I wonder if we'll get Snake's stage tonight though?

That's a pretty good guess. It's coming up soon, that's for sure.

EDIT: Just saw the update. Lame +1. Tomorrow's update will be Sonic in order to make up for tonight's crappy one. And with that, I go to sleep.

I'm pretty sure that if Sonic is in the game and information about him will be released it would be just before the game comes out, not to make up for a 'bad' update. After 'You must recover!' we just got a profile for Pikachu.

At least this update clears away those rumours that Trophies would be taken out for some reason, which didn't even make sense.

I don't know if I'd call it lame considering I thought the stickers were gonna replace trophies & I'm glad to see them make a return.

Man, between trophies, stickers, CDs & just unlocking the stages & characters it seems I'll be playing this game for quite a while.

Sakurai can't shit gold everyday, you know.

He should learn to do it.

has every post in this topic just become OH WELL, SONIC IS TOMORROW

Like I said before, I say that every day so I can finally be right when (or if) he comes out. So no, not every post, but roughly every 10th one, give or take a few.
