Darkness covered the face of the Smash Mansion. No one was awake, save the two hands. It seemed it would be like this forever… until morning's first light. As if on cue, Master and Crazy Hand somehow blared a rather loud noise out of their horns. Every Smasher, whether or not sleeping alone or together, tumbled out of bed. With the Smashers properly awakened, Crazy Hand, through the PDA system, shouted,"AtTeNtIoN, sMaShErS! Report to the screening room immediately! This is the last day for newcomers! NO SLACKING!"

People seemed to forget they were tired after that. Everyone dashed to the screening room like they were running from their biggest fears! Unfortunately, they were all in pajamas, but no one seemed to mind. As everyone settled in, the screening room darkened. The trailer was about to begin…

"Why do I sense a-nostalgia?" commented Mario. "Your crazy, bro…" said Luigi. An 8-bit game came up, with a dog sniffing among the grass. He lept into the field, scaring off a few ducks. The unseen player shot two of the ducks, but missed one, cueing the dog to laugh. Mario did the same, as Luigi shrugged from embarrassment. Then, the screen zoomed in on the dog.

The dog looked to the side, where 8-bit versions of Mario, Pit, Link, and others appeared. The 8-bit Mario held out his hand, beckoning the dog, before jumping, making the screen look more modern. The other 8-bit characters did the same, as the camera zoomed in on the grass. The dog leaped out of the grassland, a duck landing on his back. They turned around to face the screen… Duck Hunt Takes Aim!

"Okay…?" said a confused Ness, while everyone else went nuts. "SAKURAI!" screeched Link. It only got worse when a mysterious hand began shooting at enemies for Smash Attacks;"Are they a duo or a trio!?" mumbled Rosalina, fidgeting through her hair as her Luma tried to calm her Mama down. When Duck Hunt showed off his Final Smash, it was surprising that the entire mansion didn't explode. "Why you gotta pin the target on-a me?" whined Mario, as the trailer ended with a little celebration of the Duck Hunt trio…

The screening room brightened again, and Duck Hunt was on stage. He gave a little laugh before taking his seat, while the Smashers began to recover from their salt. The room darkened again, bringing Smashers to a conclusion that the next trailer was about to play. "Bet you a kiss that another swordsman is gonna show up!" whispered Link to Zelda. "*Sigh* As long as it isn't Ghirahim…" Zelda replied.

The trailer took place in a grassy field. From a distance, Bowser was running. He came to a stop, before unleashing a terrifying "ROOOOAAAAAAAR-!" A little butterfly flew beside the Koopa King, leaving the other Smashers in the screening rooms to snicker. Bowser turned in the direction of the butterfly, as a mysterious figure was holding a strange red and blue blade, which emanated a blue light like a lightsaber. "I'll take that kiss now," chuckled Link, as he and Zelda shared a passionate kiss.

Bowser turned around, trying to find the figure. Said figure leaped out of hiding, holding his blade while crying out,"BACKSLASH!" Bowser was launched off the field from the rear. The blade reverted to its original form, as its wielder slung it on his shoulder, declaring,"I'm really feeling it!" Shulk Foresees A Fight! The sword fighters, mostly, proceeded to go nuts.

Shulk turned around, as the screen turned blue-ish. Link and Marth doubled up on him, slashing him off stage. The vision ended, and just before his fate was sealed, Shulk flipped over, dodging the attack. "Little cheat!" Marth complained under his breath. From there, Shulk proceeded to dodge or counter every attack Link or Marth threw at him.

On one particular team up, Shulk leapt far away from his opponents. "Now it's Shulk time," Shulk declared, as his sword began showing strange Kanji symbols. When it reached a red symbol, his blade went back into lightsaber mode. "This is the Monado's power!" he cried. "Guess that's the sword's name," Ike said, as he promptly went back to sleep.

The trailer only got more screams from there. Between Shulk's Monado Arts, his Final Smash, and the mysterious entity at the end, this kid was on fire! At the end of the trailer, Shulk dramatically jumped down on stage, put his Monado on lightsaber mode, and declared,"I'm really feeling it!" He received a roar of applause as he took his seat. For the final time that day, the screening room dimmed.

A Koopa Clown Car raced over the barren landscape. "New Mario villain?" Bowser examined, intrigued by the trailer already. The Clown Car skidded to a near stop as it unleashed a cannon ball. Some Smashers in the vicinity were blown back, as the clown car then unleashed a wrecking ball. Most Smashers dodged to attack, and Mario ran toward the clown car. The drills made him change his mind.

As the Koopa Clown Car was about to pummel Mario with his drills, the red clad plumber pulled up his shield. It was too weak, however, as it eventually cracked, leaving Mario beaten on the ground. The Clown Car's propeller turned into kart wheels, as it ran over both Mario and Mega Man. The kart driver raised his hands in victory, revealing himself to be… Bowser Jr. Clowns The Competition! I'm pretty sure you know the rest.

As the Smashers (both villain and hero) settled down from the buzz, the trailer showed Mario being flung to the ground. As Mario looked up, his eyes caught a fearful sight. Behind Bowser Jr. were the Koopalings; the sides of good and evil both looked at one another. With determination on their faces, Mario and Bowser Jr. leaped toward one another, as did the other Smashers and Koopalings. The battle between good and evil had begun...

The trailers had ended. The newcomers had been welcomed. But no one (for some reason) had expected a huge feast in the kitchen! The Smashers gobbled up the delectables with open arms, even though it was just the afternoon. The newcomers had settled into their rooms, and the hands had been temporarily relieved of their duties. At last, the Super Smash Bros. roster had been complete…

At least for now… ;-)
