"In addition to the 16 skilled players that will be competing at the Super Smash Bros. Invitational at E3, we'll also be holding a special exhibition match starring four media outlets from around the world!"

That better not include Kotaku or IGN.

 

[MasterofMonster]

If GameSpot is in, I know who I wanna see get crushed. X3

Anyways, so much Smash this E3. They better show off some BIG newcomers.

 

[greenluigiman2]

Maybe they'll have to use the 4 remaining characters.

 

[Gameboi834]

I'm hoping Andre of GameXplain gets to rep his "media outlet".

 

[greenluigiman2]

Andre Segers, Jose Otero, Henry Gilbert and Michael Pachter.

Oh, so they are going to play with the four leftovers. Nice.

It's nice that no characters need to be left out then, but otherwise, I can't see this generating too much hype.

Was that actually confirmed? Or are we just presuming that to be the case as of current?

It's just being assumed at this point, not officially confirmed.

 

[ZeldaMaster]

Andre Segers of GameXplain is the most deserving for sure.

 

[MontyMonterson]

GameXplain are awesome, they genuinely care about Nintendo games and are extremely passionate about them. They're such a nice change from the usual media outlets who constantly feel the need to bash Nintendo and only post negative articles about them and don't really seem to care about the quality of their games but only their sales numbers.

 

[MasterofMonster]

I'd love to see André play. Especially since he will be dead after, anyways, having to analysis countless upon countless of hours of GamePlay after all this.

 

[Morbi]

Andre Segers of GameXplain is the most deserving for sure.

I agree, I have been watching his videos before I go to bed for no apparent reason, well I suppose it is because I enjoy hearing his opinion. As an avid speculator, I do not go out of my way to do that (as I hear plenty of opinions pertaining to Smash each and every day). I would LOVE to see GameXplain at e3.

 

[DaDavid]

Andre definitely deserves a shot, so hopefully we can find out soon who's going.

 

[New_Dumal]

I want someone playing as Pit. He seems too different to be ignored.
ZeRo , please pick Pit.

 

[Levy22]

Yeah guys, Gamexplain won't be there...

[MasterofMonster]

Aww, that's a real shame. :/

I guess IGN is most certanly one of them, though. Not sure about the other Three.

Oh boy. IGN. Wooo.
*heavy sigh*

Well, the good news is, at least they won't dare lie in the Smash articles since Nintendo were kind enough to let them play. :3

Question:

Is the invitational before the digital event?

Nope, after. It's 24 hours after the PS4 conference I think.

 

[Mamp]

Regarding the media tournament, Matthew Tarantino, author of webcomic Brawl in the Family, hinted at something in his comment on his latest comic.

• "I’ll be back July 2nd! In the meantime, enjoy the excitement of E3 and the fresh new kart smell of Mario’s latest racer. But if that’s not enough, here’s one last tantalizing tidbit–I’m not just going to E3 as a spectator this year. In fact, I just may be meeting with a certain beloved game company…"

Do you think this could be a hint that he will be playing, or nah?

 

[MasterOfKnees]

I think the reason he's meeting with them could be in regards to the Tadpole Treble game or w/e it's called that he and his brother are developing for Wii U. I doubt he's going to participate, though he'd definitely be my first pick for a media outlet.

 

[Deleted member]

One of the media outlet guys/whatevers is obviously Sal Romano

 

[Dark Phazon]

Great the invitational is 12am Wednesday morning that's nice.......

UK time.....

 

[ElectricCitrus]

Has the Reggie/Geoff grudge match been confirmed? Has Geoff even said anything about the invitational at all?

He said he was excited to be the Host in twitter. That's all i have seen.

 

[Gameboi834]

So does anyone know how well Keighley will do?

[Dravidian]

Mario Kart 8 rumors/leaks are popping up. I guessing smash ones will follow shortly

Why would there be leaks for a game that's out already haha :l

DLC leaks/rumors

DLC leaks/rumors

That are fake, unfortunately

 

[Hinata]

We've been over the fact that this picture is fake, but the expanded roster hasn't been proven fake yet.

 

[Gameboi834]

Fair enough. I don't think that portion is false, but we'll see.

 

[Lobos]

Is this gonna be like when brawl came out and the melee players were like "meh its ok" then went back to playing melee?

 

[Banjodorf]

We've been over the fact that this picture is fake, but the expanded roster hasn't been proven fake yet.

Honestly Plessie just makes too much sense for it to be fake. I mean, not that it wouldn't be easy as **** to make a fake Plessie head for the CSS, but honestly. And it's just the kind of thing they'd do.

Plus, didn't they admit that at least Diddy got cut due to time constraints, and because Koopalings? I've figured they'd put him back in with DLC ever since I heard they were doing it.

 

[Batu]

Anyone knows the hour of the tournament? I want to twitch it but is hard to do it, cuz cant stay all day looking at it. :s
