Personally, I'm kinda worried the invitees will purposely sandbag or make a mockery of the tournament to spite Nintendo because smash 4 isn't melee >_>.

:Considering that the tournament is primarily to promote the game as intended to be played, and it's probably desirable for it to take a predictable amount of time, I suspect it'll be using the ingame tournament mode (a single-elimination bracket) of 2-minute matches with all items on normal and all stages available (and possibly on Random).

If indeed they don't like the game, that's not something you want to be broadcasted to the public.

So what do you expect for the upcoming invitational tourney? Who do you think the 16 "highly skilled" players will be? Which characters do you think will be playable? What rules do you think will be used? ect.
