Try to keep a maximum of three items on this list at once. A fourth is okay, but five is out of the question.
Also, watch the <noinclude> on the last item. It needs to stay attached to the last item, with no spacing.
Finally, note some ground rules for whether new SSB4 information is newsworthy:
- Playable character, stage, and item reveals are.
- Assist character reveals usually are (that is, Assist Trophies and Pokémon).
- New elements of previously known things generally are not.
