20 characters. 3 of Which make no sense.

People telling people to buy a game because of a future DLC.

See... this doing very well.

Japan Preorders are going to be fun.

The game is a copy with a new engine. It doesn't mean it's going to suck. Btw anyone remember the wii in the background? Yea totally there because Sony loves the Wii!

2d Background was suppose to be a play on most Nintendo games come from a 2d world. What about Sony? 1 or 2 in the game?

Should have been a epic 3d fighter like run around or something not a copy of SMB.

I played outfox and it's not like SMB at all really. It's only that people saw the game and see how it's a 2d fighter everyone assumed are the same as PSAS is to SMB.

Wow.

1. Sales don't make the game. If we all only bought games that had high pre-orders, then we would never buy new IP.

2. No one is telling anyone to buy it for the DLC. But if your favorite character didn't make it into the game, he might later. It's just something to consider.

3. No, it's not doing well. Like you said, pre-orders are low. But PS3 exclusives have long sexy legs. You would know that if you've been on Vgchartz as long as me.

4.  Japan pre-orders are irrelevant. This is a game aimed at western gamers.

5. Copy with a new engine? Nope. This game was made from scratch. That Wii in the background? It's no secret that Smash Bros is the main inspiration for this game. This is old news. SuperBot even admitted it on Day 1 of the announcement of this game.

6. 3D 4-player would never work. It just wouldn't be as fun. Can you imagine keeping track of 4 players in a local 4 player match? Like I said before, this game is obviously inspired by Smash Bros. The 2D background works much better than 3D for fighting games.(Even Mortal Kombat went back to 2D)

1. True, sales don't make a game, but if you ever want a sequel you want that game to sell really well.

2.Why does it have to be DLC? why it can't be unlockables? It's just a stupid and easy way for developers to get money which doesn't benefit us gamers in any way.

3. Japan's market is really important, even though it may not be targeted strictly to them, it will be sold there so it does matter to some degree (if it wasn't Sony could simple not release the game in Japan), something important considering my first point.

4. I agree with the rest.
