Super Smash Bros. 3DS stream confirms new playable characters

As reported by Eurogamer, Twitch user Hayama is streaming Super Smash Bros. 3DS ahead of its Friday release in Japan, happily confirming new playable characters in the process.

Dark Pit from Kid Icarus: Uprising and the Duck Hunt Dog are included. Both appeared in an unconfirmed leak of the fighter’s roster that occurred last month.

Mr. Game and Watch, Ness and Falco are to return, but Metal Gear Solid’s Snake probably won't make it in this year.  Super Smash Bros. 3DS arrives on October 3. A Wii U version will also release this year.
