If nothing else, Zero Suit Samus' Final Smash certainly looks spectacular. Curling up into a ball of energy that drags other brawlers towards it, she then gloriously reemerges as Samus, Power Suit and all.
Sakurai has also revealed that players will be able to switch between Samus and Zero Suit Samus in the middle of a fight, but only the former appears on the character selection screen; if you want to start as Zero Suit Samus, then holding the shield button while choosing Samus should do the trick. In game, you can make the same switch by rapidly inputting taunts.
Elsewhere in today's update, we were treated to a short clip from the Subspace Emissary, starring the recently announced Marth and Meta Knight. Enjoy, and we'll see you again on Monday!

I felt like the taunt trick does one of two things:
1. Cheapens the final smash switching system they had set up for Sammie, or
2. Makes the B+Down transform move for Zelda/Sheik seem like a huge waste of space.
I can't decide which though.
On the subject of the other update, Marth's theme song will now be sung by Aerosmith. Cuz, you know, the dude looks like a lady. Really, he's giving SquareEnix competition in the androgyny department, and that's saying something. I still think he's awesome, though, especially after that fight scene.

Agree: It took me a while to figure out Marth was a dude until i got all of his trophies in Melee and gathered the clues
