I can't really say it any better myself, my guy. I said last night how this is reminiscent of how Banjo & Kazooie were before E3 and I recall someone saying that I was wrong and then I doubted my judgment.I felt like saving this for when this potential Direct was officially revealed, but I decided to do it now.
I like to think I’m a rather analytical person. I like to look at things from multiple different angles and try my best not to immediately jump onto something. And I will always believe that no character getting into Smash is guaranteed or a lock. No matter how likely we think someone is, we can always be thrown a curve ball (Chrom in Smash 4 I think was the best example of this).
But now... it’s getting really hard not to get excited for Geno! He was already one of the frontrunners going into Pass 2, and now with both Min Min proofing Spirits are back on the table, AND everything that’s happened this last week, I really think he can be next.
This thread over the last week is the most fun I’ve ever had on this entire website! Which shows by how much more frequently I’ve been posting. It’s giving me major flashbacks to my time lurking over the Banjo thread for months before his reveal, and that last week before E3 was just as wild as this thread is right now!
Even this rumoured Direct, while I didn’t believe it at first despite the creditable insiders backing it up, it’s been getting harder and harder for me to doubt it over this weekend. NONE of the insiders behind these Direct rumours have backed down ONCE, and now even one of them is giving times it could potentially be revealed at, mere hours before its supposed to happen. I’ve never seen such a strong group of people backing something like this despite the growing concerns after it wasn’t revealed Friday.
Regardless on if you think anything pointing towards Geno from this week means anything or not, from GameStop to potential insider teases, he was already looking great with his decade long fan popularity, Mii Costume continuing to be missing in action, Sakurai’s own like and consideration of the character, music takedowns, and Spirits not deconfirming.
Geno Gang. GenoBros. We got this next one boys. I’m really feeling it!
And if he’s not next in line, then we don’t give! We keep going until the very end!
...but yeah, no I'm certain now that the feeling isn't a coincidence. I echo your sentiments too. I'm feeling Geno now more than ever!
