Currently a bit haggard from a weekend camping trip and have to work through the presentation tomorrow, but mannnn I just had to pop on here to check in. Made my account here the day Smash 4 was shown off; makes sense to make my final post the day of the final announcement.

As always, fingers crossed for Phoenix; I’m going to go out on a wild limb and guess Spyro for tomorrow, since I don’t see much of anyone else saying it.

What was the second Sakurai tweet today? I only saw the first one.

One tweet in English said I believe for people to please tune in. The second is the tweet in Japanese that has an extra bit about possibly not knowing the fighter. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but that is what I have gathered over the course of today.

I'm now 99% sure it's a third party at the very least.


Hyping up who will be the final Character who will be the final of the Biggest Celebration of Gaming who blured the line between Games series.

I'd love that, but it probably wouldn't go over well for a lot of people as an obvious marketing pick to end it off on.

wouldn't care tho give me bird

I have not been here in quite a long time. I have been lurking from time to time, but was pretty active in the beginning of Smash Ultimate through Pass 1.

It is hard to believe we are coming to the end of Ultimate come tomorrow. No matter who the last fighter is, this game is incredible and will never happen again (maybe). I am here for one last ride of speculation, but am going in with no one in mind.

Let's get hype for the end! Or...deep dread. Or maybe both!?

Okay, yeah there's no way it's going to be Cinderace with flowery language like this.

If nothing else, I think there’s absolutely gotta be something to be said about Nintendo pushing this on all social media fronts as something they WANT people to see.

It doesn’t necessarily mean it will make the pick any more or less obvious, but I must say I can’t get away from the feeling it COULD…COULD be a big one to cap things off on what they literally just referred to as the biggest gaming crossover, “transcending the boundaries of gaming”.

Pic of the Day:


Well, this is the last Pic of the Day we're getting before the final character reveal. Pics of the Day were fun to see back in Smash 4, so I'm glad Sakurai decided to do this again during Ultimate's DLC period. Also, this is likely the last pic I'll be posting if Sakurai continues to post pics afters tonight.

And with that, I'll see you all on the other side.

Frankly as a huge Metroid fan who has the Dread Special Edition preordered with drooling anticipation, I would really rather the series not have the shill pick stigma forced onto it as what happened with Fire Emblem. I'll never say no to more Metroid ever, but as an FE fan also the less toxicity present from general perceptions of the franchise, the better.

I'm expecting Dread to get a Spirit Event real soon, probably this week or the next.

Transcending the boundaries of gaming eh?

Sora transcends that boundary, he rubs shoulders with Game, movie and cartoon characters!

...Let me dream for one more night.

Time for us to dream one last night. Imagining that we might get actually a banger instead of a whimper.

Legitimately speaking: I'd love to hear an argument as for why Cinderace, Waluigi, King Boo, and other Nintendo characters would "blur the line" between game series.

Transcending history and the world, a tale of swords and souls, eternally retold...

It's gotta be. It's him.


Pumped for that Todd MacFarlane copyright on the title screen too 🙌

There's going to be some backlash if they use all these hype words and it ends up being a Gen 8 starter.... but they ended the main roster of Ultimate on a Pokemon as well so who knows.

Technically, the last reveal of Smash Ultimate was Joker on it's release day even if it was DLC. :bobomb:

On the other hand they may just want to get max viewership because of how big this game has been for all companies involved since 2018 (earlier for the ones involved with Smash 4).

Google Translate: "Last fighter announcement, approaching tonight! In the "Last Special Program" broadcast from 23:00 today, # Smabra SP Last Fighter will be released! Please check with your program, whether you decorate the largest number of festivals ever beyond the Game series boundaries."

I'm guessing this is going to be a new third party joining the roster, judging by his language.

Same energy.

Think maybe I'll stick around in the Social after all. At least for a while. Signing off for the night.

See you folks on the other side of tomorrow.
