Sakurai is at it again with today’s new pic of the day for Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS. While I typically love his cryptic nature, we’re 24 hours or under away from the Japanese release of the 3DS game. That hasn’t stopped ol’ Sakurai from confirming a new character… or a new alt… or a clone… whatever you want to consider this to be. You know, I am not going to even bother trying to explain it, I’ll just let Sakurai do the talking.

“They are different characters, so they each get their own title treatment on the character-selection screen. See? It says Alph.”

It’s just too late (or too early) for me to even attempt to sort it out. Just know that yes, Alph is playable character in the game but likely doesn’t actually take up a character slot. I think. Gosh darnit Sakurai.
