This is the first major Nintendo created tournament with character restrictions. All the other Invitationals and Challenge Cups have allowed every character.
and said restrictions put an interesting emphasis on what could follow afterwards

Yea, just copy-paste last year's speculation with Reggie being at the awards as they are going to be the same (Smash, Mother 3, announcing a game, etc).
The timing is suspect because clearly its meant to celebrate the 35th anniversary by the end of the year but why was it delayed to mid December? As we've talked about a couple of times, it could have been in September with no schedule conflict or, hell, anytime since March. On a smaller scale it's also kind of suspect that it's after the VGAs and not before if it's just a tournament for funsies.
which is why FP8's reveal/release chances are potentially high. Once that tournament ends, it'll be time to set a clock to see when the news drops
I hope so too. I've been waiting for him since 2007 at least, maybe not as long as some of the other viewers/users who frequent the site, but nearly half my life I've been waiting to see him show up nonetheless.
Well if you listen to some folks around here, Gamestop knows all about which DLC character is next.
I would personally think a reveal would happen in December, but the character could be released in January, unless I am missing something here, which I think I am.

I can see it now. Reggie comes up on the skype call and gives a 5 minute speech about how video games helped everyone cope with staying indoors for all of three weeks and helped everyone discover something about themselves, then he hands away the game awards' newest award: best game to play during pandemic lockdown. He virtually hands a virtual award to the virtual likeness of Doug Bowser who is accepting the award on behalf of the Animal Crossing team.
Pamela Horton, WHAT WHAT

In all honestly I get the feeling the Game Awards is going to be bigger than people are making it out to be this year, atleast in non-Nintendo stuff (believe it or not, other companies make video games). It's already become the defacto place for Winter announcements and with how much stuff was obviously pushed back due to Covid and E3 being cancelled this is kinda the only big place for them to dump that stuff at the moment. I'm not really expecting anything too specific other than Elden Ring though (and if it isn't there people finally have a good reason to complain about where the hell it is).
0. Nintendo tends to reveal their hardware plans at dedicated events or in press releases, especially on the handheld side. More importantly, they like a swift window between reveal and release on stuff like this, and pretty much everything points away from a Q1 2021 release for the Pro. I mean, we still don't even have any rumored specs for the thing.
Unlikely of a switch pro announcement considering they will want to push their existing Nintendo Switch for Christmas. They will likely talk about Switch Pro in the new year
