Damnit, counted the city rooftop stage twice. Still, though. 28 characters is the more exciting number. Though, there is another more disappointing sort of interpretation that the specific wording they used means that characters like “Zim(with Gir)” and “Ren & Stimpy” count for two, so it could...

Huh. After being extremely underwhelmed by the last… I don’t know, seven DLC, who would’ve guessed that this of all things is what ends up getting me back to Smashboards. I actually agree with the sentiment that the single-player offering in Ultimate is lacking. “Hey, remember stickers? Well...

With the Kirkhope thing, it’s also important to note that Kirkhope never lied. He was just being as cheeky as you would expect from him: “Don’t hold your breath”. That’s not the “we literally talked to them and it didn’t work out” from Marty, that’s “don’t get your hopes up”. Moreover, the main...

****, these last few months have sucked for me. Even with all the pandemic stuff going around this year, the first 7-8 months of the year went pretty well for me, all things considered, and regarding Smash announcements specifically, while I really didn’t care for #5, Min-Min was a fun addition...

I thought someone earlier in the thread apparently checked the Japanese video description and that confirmed the length and no new fighters thing.

The music was actually pretty good, however I really, really don’t care for the “shoto” sort of character than he hit to a T, so he was a general disappointment for me. Certainly, though, he ranks higher on the scale than last night’s character does.

“Hey, the first pass started off with your tied-most-wanted. Surely that’s a good sign, and one of the next four will manage to-” 2. No. 3. Certainly glad to see them in, but since my other most wanted was Chief, it’s not really a major win for me. 4. No. 5. No. “Okay, so, we’re still getting...

At this point, my predictions are twofold: If it turns out that we really only have four characters left, then I’m going with Geno up next, a “wild card” slot that could be Capcom, Namco, or Ryu, Crash, and finally Chief. Even with the other Microsoft rep in the pass, the idea of having a...

Very much not a fan of the #7 reveal, but I’m really quite hoping that there was some weird **** going on like you’re saying. Consider this: -It’s roughly Q3 2019. Development for #1-3 is over with, and now they’re all working on #4-6 instead. -Suddenly, a realization: To make #5’s main...

Hey guys what’s going on in this th- ...oh, more Waluigi arguing and insiders apparently saying not to expect anything next week. I just want this goddamn wait to finally end. I’m really hoping that we at least get something else besides Pikmin before the month ends, however I’ve legitimately...

There’s also the fact that their main competition, Playstation, is about to have a major new backwards-compatible system release that we’ve known about since early-mid 2019, and said launch is only three-four months or so away. New PS4 console sales have slowed to a crawl just because people are...

And it’s... nothing. Aw.

Markomaro, HGV, and arguably King Zell with his “one last stop” comment.

I’m just saying that the current plan isn’t exactly any better, certainly not to the point of being called “pro-consumer” in comparison. Still, though, I’m hoping to get something neat in ten minutes or so, though again the rumors could be wrong. If they aren’t, then my best guess is Pikmin 3...

I wouldn’t exactly call it pro-consumer... When they had the “third game” system, you only needed to wait a year or two and get a combined version with all the little differences and version-exclusive Pokemon combined into one game. Now, without that, you need Sword, Shield, the Pokemon Sword...
