Yeah, I feel this exact way about a Warcraft or Starcraft character. Those games are/were huge globally and they almost never get brought up for Smash speculation. It does make sense since they are primarily PC games and the Smash audience mostly plays console games but it was still strange to never hear them brought up at all. I made a support thread for each game but I don't think I ever got a single reply in either of them.
Tune-in on 3/4 at 6am PT for an in-depth look at the new Super #SmashBrosUltimate DLC fighter, Pyra/Mythra, with Director Masahiro Sakurai. He will also reveal the fighter’s release date! pic.twitter.com/eSjrrgGqAk

Good news! You didn’t get Ninja’d. Enjoy being the first to post this.
Personally I'm satisfied with just Banjo & Kazooie in Smash. I'd rather other Rare characters just get more games for themselves and thankfully that's happening with Perfect Dark.
A lot of that is rooted in Microsoft's inability to really take advantage of the IP's they acquired. There's no reason circa 2003-2007 they couldn't have made a Diddy Kong Racing spiritual successor to make their own Mario Kart series. Same with immediately turning Killer Instinct into their exclusive fighting game franchise, or gradually having Conker titles become their version of Ratchet & Clank. That's not even getting into the mixed successes of Perfect Dark Zero or Nuts & Bolts. There's a really ideal period to make Rare a cornerstone of their library and it never really happed. That Viva Piñata, a new IP ended up being one of the most enduring Rare franchises on Xbox is somewhat telling of the output.
These presentations seem to happen at such random times every time haha!
Yeah, I'd love to see that too. Hopefully the Perfect Dark game is actually good. I was a little disappointed with Perfect Dark Zero. I would love to see the Battletoads get a game using their classic designs that actually has some kind of budget around it. The new game just doesn't feel the same. The character designs are a lot worse and remind me of the new Nickelodeon TMNT designs, which I also don't care for.
They already said not to expect any more fighters, at least, so there’s that.
Nice. Curious to see their moveset and finally take a look at those alts.
I do think a case can be made for the Battletoads though. They were RARE's first major success in gaming and would make a great retro NES rep. They haven't been totally forgotten over the years, showing up as a cameo in Shovel Knight and Killer Instinct and got a new game last year, even if it wasn't the greatest thing ever.
March 4th? That's WAYYY Earlier than I was expecting. So release wise it's probably March 14th then, eh?
The presentation will be roughly 35 minutes long, and there will be no further new fighter announcements.

Nah, they've been doing this for a lot of the Sakurai presents in the past 12 months.
Yeah, that's definitely true.
I'd say a reveal around E3, then a release in early July personally.
They announced both Hero and Banjo at E3. And Banjo was released in August. So I can see them announcing CP10, then releasing in August. Announcing the Final one around October, with release in december.
isn't that March 3rd?
Nevermind lol. Some reason I always assumed it was the 4th
I'm thinking more so a reveal at E3, but a release in Late August/Early September because I'm thinking Challenger Pack 11 is probably November 2021 lol.
All because Terry Bogard was revealed with Banjo & Kazooie's release.
I'd be surprised if it took it that much time. The period between Smash fighters has rarely been more than roughly 100 days, and even Hero's release in July took place three months after Joker's in April. Byleth to Min-Min was the longest period even that was going from two different Fighter's Passes.
Yeah, but I wouldn't be surprised if the next couple of characters are on the more... complicated side, like, Steve levels of complicated. Like, Clones being summoned, evolving into 8 different characters, Bridges, Chaotic Crate throwing. I think we're going to get some very complicated gimmicks soon.
Can't wait for more deconfirmed characters as Mii Outfits.
Sony doesnt like Nintendo is pretty dumb since it's been over 20 years since anything particularly bad happened between them. Sony is also a lot less strict with their ips, allowing the kratos fortnite skin to be multiplatform, while nintendo won't even allow a rocket league skin of samus to be playable in any cross play matches. Also don't forget nintendo is literally dominating in japan and it'd be a good idea to partner with them/increase interest in games like little big planet. They also did that gaming pledge thing with them. I wouldn't be surprised if playstation saw what all it's big partners were doing like square enix, capcom, atlus/sega and then ****ing Microsoft and decided to take part in it. If there isn't sony representation via mii or fighter, it will be there by next game. Also a Sony character or mii would probably be given more attention than any other dlc has gotten since people consider sony and nintendo to be enemies. As internet breaking as sonic in brawl
Well, the combined might of
and stood no chance against the memetic powers of 
anyhow. Might as well right? 
Fighter 10 reveal in mid May and release in late May. Month theory!
The only thing I wish we got were Mii costumes. The lack of a Mumbo Swordfighter costume was borderline depressing.
You already know where you're gonna put your warp pipes?
