In a stunning reveal Nintendo has announced that Cloud from Final Fantasy VII will be appearing as a DLC character in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS. The character has become a fan favorite since appearing on the original PlayStation title, which was the first Final Fantasy game to launch exclusively on a non-Nintendo platform.
