Official Newcomer/DLC Speculation Discussion

[Mamboo07]

Any chances of a Christmas themed spirit event?

A low chance, but maybe.

 

[SKX31]

Any chances of a Christmas themed spirit event?

Decently high - aside from the usual suspects wearing Christmas themed stuff (And ) I'd really like some more creative Mii costumes even if that's unlikely.

And I even played that one...I think I used it to kamikaze my way to a Heart Container.

Oh, that Heart Container. That one is extremely finicky - and although it's not the worst placed upgrade in the series it's up there.

 

[Iko MattOrr]

It's almost impossible I know, but I've got the feeling that they will shadowdrop the FP5 trailer the day of christmas... I know it won't happen.

 

[Jassassino]

Has fighter 5 been datamined yet?

 

[andree123]

Has fighter 5 been datamined yet?

No. it is not in any version after the P. Plant update.

 

[Megadoomer]

Has fighter 5 been datamined yet?

No, and it seems unlikely that it will be. As far as I know, the only fighter that was revealed through datamining was Hero - Joker was announced before the game's launch (and his codename in the files, "Jack", doesn't clearly point to Joker like "Brave/Yuusha" did for Hero), and Banjo/Kazooie and Terry weren't in the game's files until their release from what I recall.

Has fighter 5 been datamined yet?

Yes.

I was not expecting them to close off Fighter Pass with Chain Chomp but I might enjoy it if the moveset is good.

 

[Eldrake]

Yes.

I was not expecting them to close off Fighter Pass with Chain Chomp but I might enjoy it if the moveset is good.

Oh please, the "Chomp" codename is obviously alluding to Garchomp.

 

[Deleted member]

Has fighter 5 been datamined yet?

I was hoping that in my dream, but no, nothing new yet.

Geez, binge-watching the Kantai Collection anime makes me wonder if we'll get content from that series in Smash.

 

[osby]

Oh please, the "Chomp" codename is obviously alluding to Garchomp.

There's no way Sakurai will add another JRPG character after Joker.

You might as well act like "Brave" is Erdrick and not Banjo.

 

[Calamitas]

Has fighter 5 been datamined yet?

There has been no update to the game since that patch that fixed a freezing bug with Terry, and there hasn't been anything left over in the data that wasn't mean to be there yet since the day one patch that had Brave. Expecting a datamine to reveal the identity of FP5 at this point is just silly.

Let's try something a new game.

What video would you play/watch in celebration of one of your most wanted characters getting into Smash?

Oh I know what I'll be turning on.

Spoiler: Waluigi

Spoiler: Kratos

[Cutie Gwen]

Yes.

Oh god oh **** Assist Alliance is shaking rn

 

[Flyboy]

Absolute buffoons. Absolute fools. Clearly "chomp" is a third-party character, which is why we're getting Ms. Pac-Man

If Adeleine gets announced for Smash, I would celebrate by watching the announcement trailer over, and over, and OVER and O̸̭̿̌̾͒V̴͖͇́͋̽͐E̷̙͘Ṟ̸̻͖͈͇͍͓̬̣̒͋̓͒̚͝ͅ until I have the chance to actually get the character and main her.

Here are my choices:

Spoiler: For Doom Slayer

Spoiler: For Travis Touchdown

Spoiler: For Ori

Spoiler: For Phoenix Wright

Spoiler: For Master Chief

(I know this Halo per say, but RvB is part of the Halo universe.

Hell if Dante got in I’d play 1,3,4, and 5 again, I’d hit the jackpot with that.

For Kos-Mos is hard since the originals are in the PS2 and I don’t have it anymore.

Tbh if banjos codename was leaked alongside hero’s, then the whole banjo vs steve war would be over by now.

so if she got cancelled would you just sit there for the rest of your life watching the trailer until you die

 

[Iko MattOrr]

Probably, except that I wouldn't die completely, I'd become an undead (ghost, zombie, living skeleton, whatever) and haunt the persons who decided to cancel her.

 

[Jassassino]

Well, considering a lack of datamined info, I shall return to my slumber until February.

[Rie Sonomura]

hey so

first Splatoon 2 new update is on Jan 6. Direct then?

pls add the missing final fest music to Private Splatfests

 

[Ura]

Tbh if banjos codename was leaked alongside hero’s, then the whole banjo vs steve war would be over by now.

But if Terry's codename got leaked, it would have set the Geno thread on fire because of "dolly" lol.

 

[Ridrool64]

Spoiler: Arle's the only one I can actually think of

As for the others, I'd probably celebrate by either watching a let's play, or just playing their game.

 

[Calamitas]

Well, that January 6th is a Monday, so that's honestly not looking too likely.

they announced the Robin/Lucina reveal, which was on a Monday, on the Friday before. they could do the same here

 

[Calamitas]

I mean, yeah, but that was just a character announcement. For a full-on Direct, I don't really see that happening.

Fun fact: putting Videos in spoiler tags does not magically stop them from loading, and will still cause slowdown

[Diddy Kong]

What's this stuff about "Chomp"? Is this the new "Brave"?

 

[Deleted member]

I really hope the reveal is on early January...

 

[Will]

Has fighter 5 been datamined yet?

You think after the brave files they'd be stupid enough to let people datamine?

You see, they choose to be stupid unique ways every time and leak themselves.

Most trusted leaker: Nintendo

 

[DarthEnderX]

Oh please, the "Chomp" codename is obviously alluding to Garchomp.

Not gonna lie, that's a solid pick.

Dragon/Ground, two types not in Smash yet. Vaguely humanoid. And a very popular pseudo-legendary.

? Music leak.
? Datamine.
? Copyright.

i was gonna put down kencineroar on the box for a joke but that's grasping for straws

The only legitimate leak so far that wasn't nintendo was for picture leaks and for text leaks. That's still half on Nintendo.

Currently on my phone out. What's this I'm hearing about "Chomp"?

FP5 leaked, they're from a game called Read The Goddamn Thread It's Like 2 Pages. A cult classic from the PSP
