I actually don't think that entirely kills it—they could just not allow any streaming because they want to save it as a surprise or something.
Maybe but a Direct would be streaming live anyway so i don't see why they would forbid streaming the event...

The bar posting that video though? A gif involving a whole bunch of different Zelda games? With Majora's Mask in the thumbnail and the last two in the video being shown as Majora's Mask and Hyrule Warriors, which are the two games Skull Kid was most in?
Could be a hint or could be just a funny meme. I guess we'll see soon enough ;) Good points tho, i didn't noticed those Zelda related posts.

Could be another related Zelda thing. Could be a remake. I'm just saying, it is curious...
I would die from hype if they announce a new Zelda game (fortunately i always carry a fairy just in case ;))

Edit: Also, ONE HUNDRED PAGES of hype for Skull Kid!! Yay!

I was hoping Young Link would return with a Majora's Mask look but was disappointed when he didnt. Hopefully Skull Kid makes it in cause I'd love character representation from my favorite game of all time!

Woot! 100 pages!

On another note, boy have things slowed down as a whole lately on Nintendo's end. I'm wondering if they're just going to do a loadout Direct in November like they did a month or so before Smash 4 containing the remaining characters and explanations on them along with some of the newer characters?

That's basically what I'm holding out for. Waiting on that November 7th for a thicc spicy Smash Direct. Lines up with what they did for 4 too like you said. 50 Facts was about a month away from 4's release. Same with the 7th. Plus the 7th is a Wednesday so, lines up nice and good.

It's barely been a month since we got Isabelle. Things haven't slowed down, we're all just super impatient. :laugh:

They were in Four Swords Adventures. Also, Groose from Skyward Sword strongly resembles a Gerudo with his bright red hair and yellow eyes.
I never played that game, so I didn't know they were in it. Groose does look like a male Gerudo, but there really isn't any solid evidence or proof besides that, that points towards him being a Gerudo.

I just feel like releasing Skull Kid around Halloween would be pretty dang cool.

Also for the purpose of clips for my MM anniversary video but I suppose I have enough to work with anyway, lol.

I'll be happy if we get Skull Kid just sometime. Fingers crossed for something this week though given that bar's video thing though, lol.

Yay on 100 pages!!!!!!

Also interesting to note, apparently a guy who leaked Cloud on reset era is claiming there's a real image leak floating around ASIDE from Ken,

as poor as it looks, Skull Kid was never proven fake if we assume the third image was a different person (which is actually pretty likely since the pose is different and it's suddenly a lot more blurry)

And the third, probably from a different person, fake one

They were all posted separately so it's possible each of them were a different person, but I suspect the first two are same, regardless of if it's real or not

True, but it bears mentioning at least! People speculate that Telma from TP is a Gerudo descendant as well, but again, it's speculation.

His fingers are glued together in all of those images. It's just his AT model from Smash 4.

What do you guys think of the possibility of the Skull Kid race returning in a future Zelda?
I would very much like it, I've always found the skull kid design to be very appealing in TP and MM, so I'd be curious if the race was brought back, what there redesign would look like.
As long as they aren't in 900 different spots taking the place of what could have been actual content and reward you with their own poop for doing one of a handful of copy/pasted "puzzles" then sure.

Congrats on 100 pages ! Here's hoping that MTL Arcade's "3 days remain" statement bodes well for us...

Here's to a smash video announced tomorrow, which would be an excellent present for 100 pages.

I've been thinking though, if they're going reveal Skull Kid, why not just wait till the 26th while they have the chance? It would be a nice touch.

Probably best just to ignore, we've been discussing on discord and he has specified a bit what he's talking about.

Won't go into specifics but Nazyrus will back me up

YouTube is down (!!!) but the music of the day was another Megaman song! The music theory was already dead and buried but this bodes very well, I think... for another Zelda track appearing. Whether it will coincide with Skull Kid being revealed is a different story, though.

That menu theme sounds incredible! I love it!

To be honest, this has gotten me hyped for Ultimate all over again. :)
Yeah, it's extremely good! Man, I loved Melee's theme, I loved Brawl's theme, and I grew to like Smash 4's theme as well, but Ultimate's is fantastic.

Truly epic.

Apparently it was uploaded with Nintendo's permission, anyway that's what Pushdustin is saying: https://twitter.com/PushDustIn/status/1052382746511720448
Interesting. It seems like the game might actually be in reviewers' hands, judging by a tweet I just saw on papagenos papagenos 's Twitter page, so I'm really hoping we get info before things start leaking.

EDIT: https://twitter.com/GenosPapa/status/1052408966574157825?s=19 The tweet in question.

Yeah I don't wanna find out Skull Kid is in by some asshole who couldn't wait for everyone else,
I wanna see a cinematic of Skull Kid fighting Fierce Deity Link.

Do we really have proof of that being the game and not just a printed cover? Do we have proof also that that's the official menu music and not a fan creation? All of this coming out so quickly and I'm not sure why it is believed immediately xD

There is good chance that it could be true. The E3 demo still looked very good and this was more then 4 month ago. Also Sakruai said in a interview a month ago that the game would be finished not far away.
It is nornal that gold version is ready 2 month before the game will be released for production, merchandising etc.
The guy that uploaded the music theme said that he did it with the agreement of Nintendo. Of course this could also be a lie.

But the music sounds nearly excactly like the music in the E3 demo just with more guitarre. It would be difficult or impossible to record this music with such a clear tonal.

Sakurai did say it wouldn't be too much longer before it goes gold in a famitsu article I think

Nintendo, you're playing us like Skull Kid's flute! You drag us around like Majora did to Skull Kid! Quit toying with us, we want to know!

Obviously I'm being overly dramatic but still, it's simultaneously hype-bulding and irritating. XD

Nintendo goes off pacific time don't forget y'all. 2 hours and 40 minutes till usual announcement time. I think the simple fact that they haven't tweeted anything else yet is foreshadowing.

I thought for sure it was 10am EST? At least that's how it seems to be according to what GameFAQs is going on about right now. Still, the fact they haven't posted anything yet gives me hope—there's still a lot of hours left in the day.

Yeah, it's typically 7AM PST, which is 10AM EST.

Probably best not to get our hopes up at this point.

Three hours later than they normally do and it was ****ing nothing. :roll: Looks like we're waiting until November at this point, I swear.

My last hope is tomorrow (and it's a really small hope). If not I'll just wait until MM anniversary because it's a lost battle.
