User Info: RyanCE RyanCE 6 years ago #1 Edit: I'm sorry if the "Gematsu lives" in the title is rubbing anyone the wrong way -- I'd edit the title if I could. I guess I was just a little excited. Ignore that and focus on the actual information.



I've been reading through some of the Japanese bulletin boards in light of the latest Famitsu, and I found some new info in addition to a new scan (https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Bsp5iI2CUAA478W.jpg).



Here’s the rundown:



1. Lucina was originally included as a Marth skin.

2. “A certain character” was cut during development. (Chrom? Who knows. It's not clarified.)

3. Sakurai didn’t want to reduce the total number of characters.

4. It wasn’t possible to make a brand new character on short notice.

5. Lucina was repurposed into her own character slot to fill the void. I'm sorry if the "Gematsu lives" in the title is rubbing anyone the wrong way -- I'd edit the title if I could.
