Geno (♥♪!?): Return of the Starsend Savior

[ZelDan]

One good thing we know we can look forward to is for all the bickering and ****-slinging around the Grinch leak to end. Then the Smash community can look forward to going back to its usual non-leak oriented bickering and ****-slinging!

But seriously I am excited (and nervous) about this direct!

So it begins...

 

[Flynn__]

Me: no fears.

Insiders: one of the characters from the leak is actually an AT.

Me: one fear.

I really hope it's not Geno

 

[Gurein]

Geno bros. Me. You. And even Banjo bros. All of our dreams align. We have to pull through. Here's hoping we ALL get in.

 

[BluePikmin11]

I am really hoping to get my Geno prediction right.

Crossing my fingers twice as hard for Geno.

 

[ForsakenM]

OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!

Since this Direct is 40 minutes. I think that's plenty of time to reveal 7 characters. In the August Direct we got 5. 3 of them echoes. So 2 echoes and 5 fighters is possible. Plus the mystery mode and other stuff.

 

[RetrogamerMax]

Let's pray to the stars on Star Road that Geno will finally get in on Thursday.

 

[yakko789]

Holy **** it's this Thursday! Geno has to happen! This Thursday, Nov. 1st, I had an exam scheduled at the time the direct is scheduled, but something happened at my University which pushed everything back a week, so now that exam is Nov. 8th, so I can actually watch the direct! I'm so excited and nervous!! Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!

 

[Oracle_Summon]

You guys have been waiting since Brawl to get your Star Warrior. May he face off Isaac in the field of battle.

More like this:

That is how I feel about getting through the next two days.

That and there's supposed to be Treehouse presentation going on after the direct, so maybe a reveal or two will happen there.

 

[StrawHatX]

Isaac fan here. Godspeed Genobros! I think it’s time for our guys to finally make it!

 

[Teeb147]

We in this!
it's all coming to this, 2 days :D

godspeed indeed genofriends

 

[Fatmanonice]

Aside from Ken, Geno's the only Grinch character in the last 24 hours that hasn't been suggested by some random insider to either be an assist trophy or totally not in the game at all. Like my grandpa used to say "I don't whether to laugh, cry, or **** my pants."

 

[Frosty Pops]

Greetings Geno allies from the Isaac buddies. Rooting for you guys hardcore, wished upon a star and everything. Hope we get back to back reveals for our favorite RPG reps!!!

 

[coolcat12347]

Guys, just thinking about Sakurai saying something along the lines of
"From Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, Geno descends from the stars to grant this long awaited wish."
Fills me with joy

 

[~ Valkyrie ~]

Something for ya'll from Chorus Boys-thread:

I have to yet really get to know Geno since being a long-time Toad-supporter, but I've been hearing a lot about your long waiting and campaigning for quite a while now.

Hopefully your long-awaited wish comes true around Thursday.

 

[PhantomShab]

Good luck on thursday Genobros. If there's any Smash game to get him as a playable fighter, it's this one.

 

[Smashoperatingbuddy123]

40 minutes is really promising for team Grinch

That's longer than 50 fact extravaganza and the first one was a little short with 26ish minutes I believe and we got 5

And the greatest thing of them all that happened

Rip box theory

 

[mbvswb]

ten year geno supporter. add me to the list genbros

 

[Fatmanonice]

Rip box theory

This. If Sakurai only reveals two characters in 40 minutes, one being an echo, he'll unequivocally be the biggest troll of all time.

 

[domriver]

This. If Sakurai only reveals two characters in 40 minutes, one being an echo, he'll unequivocally be the biggest troll of all time.

Agreed. 40 minutes and 1 newcomer? and 1 echo. Sounds to me like the banner leak just very well may be real after all. Good thing we will find out this thursday. Also Now if Sakurai wanted to end with a blast those 7 will just do it. He will give all of us heart attacks/ high blood pressure etc... LOL.

BREAKING NEWS***
NINTENDO FANS ALL OVER THE WORLD ARE SUFFERING FROM TO MUCH EXCITEMENT. lol

 

[Gioka]

Hi Geno Bros! Coming from the Isaac thread to wish you the best of fortunes for this direct, I am on team real so I think the stars are aligning for Geno to come back home! The wait is almost over guys, hope we meet on the other side ~

 

[Corbin]

It's surreal to think we may be less than 48 hours from seeing Geno in Smash. A majority of my life, wanting Geno in Smash. All leading up to this.

Thursday is going to be crazy!

 

[gzmee]

alright, genoboys.
let's stand in a circle, hold hands, and pray.
and then get the booze ready if it doesn't happen. we can still drink it if it does, but, like, it's basically mandatory if it doesn't.

 

[Slender]

This is it. We're in the endgame now.

 

[domriver]

papagenos are you going to do a live stream of this final direct? Since we are really anticipating Geno to be in it? :D

[link2702]

So in order to try and control our hype a bit, how’s about discussing something mrpg related?

What’s the strangest glitch you ever encountered in smrpg? For me it’d have to be when i was younger and going through maybe my second play through of the game as a kid...in the battle against bowyer iirc, for whatever reason when a character got hit, they faced the opposite direction of the battle. To this day idk what happened, and it corrected itself soon as it came to that characters turn to attack.

That song needs to be in the reveal trailer.

 

[domriver]

That song needs to be in the reveal trailer.

I second that.

 

[Dr. Jojo Phantasma]

The Geno struggle that lasted for more than a decade could end two days from now. Oh the feels would be great, I look forward to seeing Geno's trailer.

 

[Dee Dude]

Sup Geno bros?

Just here to wish you all luck!

I know before this leak happened, I’ve doubted Geno and that he was a very overrated pick getting before many other important characters.

But it’s selfish of me to not realize how much he truly means to you all, if he really is that popular then there must be a reason.

I’ve finally warmed up to him because I guess it shows no matter obstacles a character has, they’re most beloved by the fans who grew up with the game and even the director taking interest.

Hope you all get your wish granted!

 

[FCZHornet]

If geno gets added to smash I will LITERALLY drink a cold Coors light.

 

[SmashKeks]

It's time boys.

My anthem the next few hours.

 

[PurpleStrings16]

Hey guys. Not sure if I have posted here before.

I’m from the Banjo thread.

Just wanna say good luck to you guys. I think Geno, Isaac, and Banjo have a very similar aesthetic to their fans, and so I have always felt like Isaac and Geno fans were relatable in these threads even though I did not grow up playing either games for them (tragically).

I know we all want that leak to be true, so we will see on November 1st.

Best of luck.

Best of luck to Banjo too. I haven't played any of the BK games yet (but they're on my list), but it's no wonder why the bear and bird were such icons for the N64. They definitely deserve a spot in this game, and they look like they'll have a fun moveset too. Here's hoping this plays out well for all of us.

 

[MooseSmuggler]

It's been over a decade for some of us, and it's coming down to this. Hang in there just a little bit longer!

Oh and PsychoIncarnate make sure I'm on the supporter list before the reveal

 

[Teeb147]

It really has been a long time for Geno and Isaac fans.
This is the culmination. Time to see if sakurai made somethnig with the dreams
