Nothing good would come from revealing the top ballot picks. Sakurai said it best. People would hound companies about it. Even if the next Smash game isn't for another 5-6 years people won't forget.

Metroid in about 24 hours. Can't believe it's almost here. I'm ready.

Xenoblade sold well. It isn't one of the behemoths of Nintendo but that (Mario/Zelda) isn't the baseline for success.

Square seemed pretty generous this game after what we got with Cloud in 4.

As long as they never cut Ridley we won't have to fight.

I get it, I do, but it feels pretty disappointing when you want more 1st party and the immediate reaction towards that is negative. Several of my most exciting DLC picks were even 3rd party. Banjo, Sephiroth, Sora, but my most exciting was Pyra/Mythra and it makes me sad seeing a franchise like...

I do like 3rd parties, and Ultimate especially is a celebration of gaming as much as Nintendo, but in the future when we inevitably have to cut down I don't want them to skim over 1st party characters when choosing who to add. Almost feels like we went wrong somewhere because people get...

I like how Kairi is relegated to a tiny picture in the Dive to the heart part of the stage for Sora. Even in Smash she gets shafted. at least aqua got one

I'm like, fully content with the roster. I was before, but I am even more now. I still can't believe Disney played ball lol. I'm very happy I was wrong. I didn't think Sora was impossible but I figured he'd be the hardest newcomer to grab out of all options. I'm soaking up the now all day babbbyyy.

Saying "they're just gonna do it" is ridiculous. This isn't a fairytale where negotiating terms is done by sheer willpower. Sakurai should be free to make another game that isn't Smash too. I'm sure he'll come back if asked but give the man a break, and if he did get said break a new director...

I don't think we're getting an enhanced port. It's not just porting the game to another system and everything is fine. You have to renegotiate ALL the rights for every character and music track. That's very very optimistic thinking when I'm pretty sure Ultimate barely happened as is. Just...

Not ready to think about the next Smash game yet. All I can say is even though it'll probably be good with new characters it won't top what Ultimate has done. This game is truly special. Hence why it's called Special in Japan.

Honestly 9 tracks was more than I expected considering the legal crap they had to certainly hurdle through just to get him in the game. Wish we got the main themes but no way we were.

I know it's part of the speculation cycle, but I hope people will finally in the future for the next eventual game stop the "my character I want is getting promoted in places or getting a lot of attention, it must be Smash related" stuff. Seems like a ton of character threads fall into this...

I've always wanted Sora and I grew up with KH so I love the series, but I never really considered it as a possibility because of Disney. I can't imagine all the legal hoops and work they had to go through to get this done. Definitely the best possible last reveal for Smash.
