This will be my face if Nintendo doesn't announce the direct tomorrow. It will also be my face when watching the direct.

Fable, and Perfect Dark developed by The Initiative, have been rumored so credibly for so long that it's basically a guarantee at this point.

'What are your predictions for the Microsoft event---'
"Fable."

He said it almost instantly and confidently. Don't quote me on anything though, I'm just the messenger!

I'd listen to that SpawnCast... but it's Nate. Who is absolutely grating to listen to.

I’m sure the direct is soon, I just hope there is a character announcement... would suck if there wasn’t one

Did you pop a viagra after first getting that hate boner? Seems like he's all you ever post about.
I post about other stuff. It's just I find it odd people talk about him like there's nothing wrong about him when there clearly is like Sabi.

I hope there's a character announcement there. And it's our boy. Because for there not to be a Direct means even more waiting and waiting...

Perhaps I shouldn't have been so condescending. Sabi was, too, cocky, but he was also just a disturbed individual. I'd had spoken to him for years, and there was always something twisted about it all. Nate just gets a kick out of teasing people. Maybe he is secretly a terrible person, but unless he is, he shouldn't really be compared to Allen.

Ahoy there Geno Bros! I've been lurking for years now and just recently decided to make an account.


On the topic of weird dreams of Geno in smash, I had one where he was confirmed in ultimate and I was losing it. However, for whatever reason Geno was a reskinned DK who looked wooden with a geno hat on. Upon the awkwardness sakurai said "Geno was such a brute in Super Mario RPG, I just couldn't figure out how to portray it, but i'm proud with how he turned out, I hope you will be excited to play as him!"

I contemplated life itself for what felt like 20 minutes and woke up.

Here is the Spawn Cast
20200718_231956.jpg

https://youtu.be/pjPu8PylYoU

At 2:43:19 is when the group starts talking about Nintendo Direct rumors.

Along with what I summarized on the last page, Nate also said at the end of the podcast he doesn't anticipate Zelda being there. "I didn't say it won't be, but I'm just not anticipating it." - Nate

For those uninformed, Nate is definitely credible. He never comments on rumors unless they're likely true and actually gets annoyed by rumor-speak. As such, he doesn't like having to reassure people so much. This isn't a Sabi type or something, Nate is credible.

Welcome! I once had a similar dream where I dreamt Dig Dug was confirmed, but he was just Bad Box Mega Man from SF X T.

You guys are having dreams about Smash? I never get those.

I've talked about it here before, but back in early 2019, I had a dream where a direct happened and I checked the Smash website because I was away from home at the time. Lo and behold, Geno was there as the next fighter! But... his name was not "Geno". No no no, for some reason, his name was "Geno from Super Mario RPG"

Just did a quick check to make sure, the last 4 general directs were all announced only one day before at 7:00AM PST. If anything them announcing it tomorrow isn't an exception, it's a pattern.

I think it would be nice to get a Mario RPG character into SSB, but I don't want Geno and I definitely don't want Paper Mario (ugh, a third Mario, no thanks)

Fawful would be the best. He is cute and charming and silly while also being a spiteful weirdo. He has major roles in two Mario & Luigi games plus a minor role in another one, and is a fan favorite character.

I guess he'd also work as a boss fight, seeing as his chances of being playable are null, but making him playable would be so perfect. He is such a silly character and there's a lot of fun to be had with his attacks and presentation. Despite being a fan favorite character and being the best character to represent Mario RPGs, he has no traction for SSB and would never be made playable now that the Mario & Luigi games might be done for good. But if Sakurai knew how to make the best ssb game ever, he would add fawful

While I, personally, don't have the highest thoughts on Geno's shot. I think coming into the Geno thread just to say you don't want him is pretty tone-deaf. Completely discounting Paper Mario as a "third Mario" also misses the point entirely. Neither character would act anything like the rest of the roster.

I can't think of any but I think the reason Nintendo is supposedly holding it on Monday is because Xbox is doing it's big thing on Thursday. I think Nintendo always planned to do their reveals after Origami King released but then Xbox set up their plans for this week and its like "Jesus christ we need to announce our stuff we have literally nothing on the table after Paper Mario" so they shifted to Monday.

Buddy, you can’t just come to the Geno thread and say you don’t want him. Also, saying Fawful makes the best Smash Bros ever is completely your opinion. 1 character does not make a difference making the best Smash game. Smash Ultimate is most successful Smash game ever without Fawful. I’m sure you have better things to do like making a Fawful thread or something.

Woah, these are really good! Not sure why they're not properly scaled, though. You'd think if you were showcasing your sick pixel art you'd want to keep it at a proper scale like 2x2, 4x4, etc.

See? Looks so much cleaner.


OH ****! STEVE MINECRAFT MII COSTUME CONFIRMED?!


Given how every other Smithy Ganger is a living weapon, Mack being the knife rather than the weird little red guy riding on him would make much more sense.
That's because twitter compression is awful. Did a post before with its true native size and it got jpeg'd to death. Im impressed you were able to clean them up from that background LOL Thank you for liking my work! The other renders like that one will be available when the animation is done.

As an artist myself, I can totally vouch for this… Screw twitter compression.

I dunno if you were trying to get a rise out of people, but the way you phrased it didn't really bother me, so I'm just gonna assume you were just giving your opinion with no ill will involved, and I'd personally also like to see Fawful as a boss, in his corrupted form at least. I wouldn't mind Midbus, either. I want more bosses, in general.

I always follow SeanHicksArt SeanHicksArt creations on Twitter and Instagram. Nice to see him in the Geno World here. This is QQS and my best wishes from Chile!

So uh, is nobody else going to acknowledge that someone with sources (if I'm thinking of the right person) just gave us a mysterious smile? Seems like the kind of thing we'd be freaking out about.

Nazyrus Nazyrus is connected to someone who was once a close source of Sabi's. Knowing who this person is, I'd believe they are well beyond credible enough. I don't particularly buy into whatever Naz is teasing this time though.

I base this on nothing but my gut, but I feel like the GameStop "leak" is extremely plausible, especially since the damage control is so suspicious.

The Gamestop leak is false, but might be quite the happy coincidence though~

lol'd. It's not that person, who want to stay away from all of that **** after what happened. I can vouch on that.

That's what I've been saying this whole time. Pamela Horton is too smart to say "Geno was announced for Smash" if she was talking about a Mii fighter costume from five years ago. And GameStop is too dumb to know how to do proper damage control, especially given how they've been handling this disaster so far. *Especially* with the "We have no idea who the next fighter is. Probably someone from Fire Emblem," line. There's no reason to think that one of the biggest game retailers in the country doesn't know who's coming next. Them trying to say they couldn't possibly know is just dumb.

Is a Direct getting announced tomorrow?
Is Geno coming to Smash?
Is his Mii Gunner costume coming back?
Is Mallow gonna be playable instead?
Is Geno gonna come down from the heavens with angel wings and a long thin sword and give us dis pear?

Yeah you can all thank sabi for that. It is indeed not from that person. I am just leaving my blessing here and wishing everyone good luck since FP7 is clearly close to reveal based on what we all know :) (amiibo dates and such)

I think they are teasing going to bed.

So, Bed is character 7. We were warned that we were sleeping on their chances.
