... Today is Tuesday.
Well hopefully Nintendo remembered to not send the announcement down the Garbage Chute.

Of all the things I decide to reference, why did it have to be 2005 Wonka?

In seriousness, maybe tonight by 9pm est? That's when Joker's vid released after all?

8 PM est is 9 AM in Japan, one of the times Guybrush20X6 said to keep an eye on

It honestly is strange to me that they didn't even give something to say what their plans are since there's no E3. I definitely expected it.

I really doubt they'll go back on arms being release in june, it's already a delay. I think this would be a good time to give a little bit of news.

Nintendo can't afford to delay any of the first 3 fighters of the pass beyond the extension for 6. The pass might become a money sink if they don't regain interest in it soon. I'm glad ARMS is getting a rep, but unfortunately, it won't be enough to get most people to buy it.

I'm not buying the pass anyway this time. I got disappointed with enough fighters in the last one that I'll just get the ones I like from now on.

But yeah maybe there isn't much hype at the moment. Maybe there would be if they had more announcements about stuff? :p

Well this pass is one more character but over an extra year so things would have been slower even if we didn't get another disapointing remake of The Day the Earth Stood Still

Theres a part of me now that kind of wants them to just shadow drop the character into the game and put the Sakurai Presents up a little later. Just the thought of suddenly noticing that Smash is patching is exciting.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't Dr. Coyle have a 3rd arm come out as one of her abilities in Arms? Since Wicked Weaves refers to the giant hands in Bayonetta's smash attacks, maybe Dr. Coyle's third arm could fit the build and be used for her smash attacks.
No She DOESN'T;

The Only character with ONE Extra arm is Barq & Byte(and ONLY because of Byte having a Boxing Glove coming out of his Robotic Mouth)

This is outrageous.

It's unfair.

How could they announce that the next character is from ARMS, and still not reveal who it is?

Yes she does. She grows an extra ARM after charging but it only lasts for a few seconds and what side it's on is random.

Yes.
Looks like nothing happened today. If tomorrow is the same I'll move to next week.
Shadow drop on Thursday is a possibility but with PS5 presentation seems a bad date. And I don't wait for Nintendo news on Fridays.
For me is tomorrow or another week.

it just the garbage shute's in both versions
I messed it up. I was trying to say "there's a chance they [Nintendo] decided not to release it today, a rewording of a quote from the 2005 film (after "Today is Tuesday", which is what I was replying to).

Moving on, what sort of music should get in. Naturally, I hope the entire OST makes it in, but if I had to pick one song, Min Min's theme is it.

Outside the usual candidates, the replay theme bops hard.

Because they have been delaying their announcements due to the virus? That doesn't make them evil that makes them concerned and caring of their employees.
True for the most part, except the presentations/directs are pre-recorded

I wasn't being serious, just felt like making Star Wars references out of boredom. That line is take from Revenge of the Sith, where in the final battle Anakin says "from my point of view the Jedi are evil!"

I think the best way to frame it would be Incinaraor blocking two ARMS like Spring Man does in the ARMS debut trailer but it's framed just right so it's not obvious who it is.

Via Dolce doesn't need a remix but if it does get one I hope to god Yoko Shimomura does it
It's basically made for her

He then steals the clown car and looks directly at the camera and says "That's right kid, as long as we have this, all my friends can join in too!"

If fan rules get disproven soon, some fans could say that they "have the high ground".

Not me, Smash logic goes that the old guy will be outdone by the new one. Don't they know how kayfabe works?
