Lo and behold, anticipatory hype actually lived up towards: gloriously high-definition Captain Falc--- oh wait, never mind. Nothing to see here, moving on ladies and gentlemen.


As one of those players who has grown from a child to a young adult, Super Smash Brothers has come quite a long way since the era of the fifth generation. To be able to witness its evolution from the beginning makes it much more remarkable.

I don't know, his acknowledgement is what is bothering me to be perfectly honest.
For him to acknowledge a pretty important time for Smash Bros. and just show an image of a character who's never been in it until now is what's bothering me.
An image featuring Mario, Link, Kirby, and Pikachu would've actually made some sense. Or maybe finally revealing Yoshi (who even I am forgetting about at this point).

Well there you go. Honestly getting something notable wasn't the sure thing like so many were treating it.

As if people will care to remember this time the next time hopes get dangerously high. :rolleyes:

"Today is the 15th Anniversary of the launch of the first Super Smash Bros. There may be some players out there who played it on the Nintendo 64 as kids that have grown into adults."
There "may" be? What, is he trying to say that there might be some but it's highly unlikely?

Sakurai may be often hailed as a "genius", which is debatable in of itself, but as I always love to say: Just because you're a genius doesn't make you a smart guy.

He's implying that some of us who started with smash 64 are still children in his eyes.

Classy, Sakurai.

Guys! I just realized something.
It's the anniversary of the LAUNCH of Smash Bros.
And he shows Rosalina LAUNCHING a Luma!
This guy knows what he's doing! :awesome:

Proud to be one of those players. *wink*

And 91 users and 92 guests. Wow. Can't remember the last time it was that high. Must be because of the anniversary...

He's going to do another one of those midday updates and surprise everyone with an intensely detailed close up of Luigi's nose on Dedede's coat.

This feels both disappointing and misleading. I feel that there's still more to this that Sakurai is hiding, but maybe it's just me.

Shame on us, I guess, for expecting something more than we were likely to get.

From now on, guys, we predict no more.

We expect no more.

We anticipate no more.

We sit.

And we wait.

Wait long.

Wait quietly.





...Screw that! What's tomorrow's update? Place your bets ladies and gents!

Lesson learned. I don't know why I was expecting something for the 15 anniversary of Smash. Silly me, I am such a dumbass.

I really don't think this is a bad picture; it seems to suggest that Rosalina has two fundamental places she keeps her Luma which makes me think her spacing game is going to be really interesting but also a lot simpler to deal with from the other side than some other schemes might have suggested. Seriously, we got some mechanical explanation for the last well understood character so far; that's an above average update.

Well, there we have it. It's the 15th anniversary of Smash Bros. and Captain Falcon wasn't announced. Obviously he's cut guys. Ohb-viii-ous-leeee. :troll:

On the bright side, a fair amount of leaks are disproved with today's **** update, so there's that i guess.

IKR :awesome:, how dare we.

This is almost worse than some of that Ed Boon stuff :troll:


I don't care what people say, I'll continue to hope for the best. Having low expectations isn't fun, and certainly not how I want to live my life. So I'll expect the greatest things, and if I come crashing down, so be it.

Well, at least he acknowledged the 15-year anniverary for Smash Bros. That's better than nothing.

"Why wasn't there a reveal or something for the anniversary?!?"

People actually have a reason to be upset that it's not something new and cool. Any other day they wouldn't but today on the anniversary they do. LOL

The funny thing about this statement is that, indeed, we all got older with the passage of these 15 years except Sakurai.

Would it have been so hard to switch today's and yesterday's pics so we at least would've gotten something new? I mean, seriously, this was PREMEDITATED

Yeah treating any event like a sure thing for a reveal of something notable (except maybe E3) is a pretty silly thing to do.

This is predicting Sakurai. There are very few sure things.

Well, it depends on if that father is Sakurai. Apparently, we shouldn't "predict" Sakurai on a 15 anniversary (so irrational, I know). So naturally the kid is a little ***** and Sakurai doesn't give a damn about his birthday.
