No, i meant in the day-to-day updates, only 2 newcomers.

Well...that's actually a substantial amount...you can't just discount the other 5 new characters...it's probably better for Nintendo to reveal really big characters at conferences anyway...not online...though some big updates like the Pokemon Trainer have been online.

Underwhelming update, just Link's special moves.

I'm not seein' it...

Japanese site.

Go link.

I'm suprised the Japan site is updated and not the USA.

dtewi, if you're going to call every update underwhelming, I don't get why you hang around...

Because it's actually an awesome update.

Update: Link: Special Moves

The design for Link is taken from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, so his special moves have also been designed a bit differently.

<Side Special Move: Gale Boomerang>

Gale Boomerang!

The Gale Boomerang deals damage when thrown at an enemy, but when it comes back, it also lightly pulls the foe’s body.

<Standard Special Move: Hero’s Bow>

The Hero’s Bow! It’s fast.

<Down Special Move: Bomb>

Are these bombs made by Barnes?

<Up Special Move: Spin Attack>

You can charge up the Spin Attack!

<Grab: Clawshot>

All this and the Clawshot, too!

You can use the Clawshot to perform life-saving tether recoveries by aiming at available ledges.

It was difficult to aim in the previous game, but this time it automatically flies to the closest ledge, so it should be pretty simple to use.

Of course, it doesn't mean a thing if it can't reach its target...

So the boomerang pulls other players towards you, the bow is fast, and the clawshot targets ledges automatically... So... Link might be even better in this game...

ummm...
