I don't know where the exact picture of Tsubasa as a Spirit is in the Direct, I just recognized her ASAP because I'm actually a fan of TMS myself (currently playing through it). She WAS in there, I know that.

I do think the final Direct was a little underwhelming, but I'm pretty satisfied with the roster as a whole! Gotta be honest, I had NO CLUE what to make of the Grinch leak. Facts and fiction were being passed around, nothing getting really truly verified OR debunked. That was just one leak I...

A post on Reddit put it best this way: "No XBX music, No XBX characters as Spirits, No XBX characters as ATs, No XBX stage, No Elma at all. It's definitely one of the DLCs. When goddamn Tsubasa Oribe from Tokyo Mirage Sessions (Thanks for acknowledging her Sakurai) is getting shown off as a...

This is absolutely amazing, guys! After Ridley was revealed, I was actually pretty OK with Metroid's representation and all that I wanted back was Brinstar Depths. For me, pre-E3, what I wanted was either Ridley, or Dark Samus as a unique character if Ridley was impossible. Even though Dark...

Out of all of those, Gaius from Fire Emblem Awakening has to be the most... random. Like... a group of people banded together to pick this random character from Awakening. Who's the person at #18, by the way?

By which I mean... super heavily demanded newcomer, highly popular, wanted for an extremely long time and still not in Smash yet. Ridley was definitely wanted more by Western audiences, but it leaves me to wonder if Japan has anybody with extremely heavy demand like Ridley?

Got my Ridley amiibo pre-order in. Gosh, I can't believe I'm actually going to have a Ridley amiibo. From Smash Bros. Because he's in Smash. Still mind-blowing.

Datamined amiibo info? This interests me. Link, please?

Damn, any idea what this means for Decidueye and Gen 7 Pokemon in general? Another Greninja situation?

You can add me as a supporter if I'm not already there. I'd actually like both Elma and Rex & Pyra, but I'm not sure how likely the latter is. When exactly was the roster decided?

Could... could I just ask WHY Ridley was being called "Captain America" by Japanese Smash fans? Like... I-I don't get the connection and am genuinely confused here. Is it because he was heavily requested in the West?

I'd totally sign on for the Paper Mario Peach Beam. Something from SPP would be good too, though Nintendo doesn't seem to want to acknowledge the game much.

With the 'streamlining' of Final Smashes that Sakurai had said fighters would get, does this hopefully mean a different Final Smash for Peach? I REALLY hope so. Peach Blossom is just an awful Final Smash, so bad that I'd actively avoid using it in Smash 4 because my opponents could heal and...

Damn, that's honestly awesome to hear straight from Sakurai's mouth. Well technically, the translator's mouth, but Sakurai still said it in Japanese. XP

Can someone link or show me this interview where Sakurai cites the western fanbase? I can't seem to find it.
