Though at least we do know dates can be changed, etc. It depends when he got this information. It sounds like he's predicting at this point, not having insider knowledge.
And I must ask: why the long wait?
Yeah, he's suspected of doing that. I personally suspect him of that since I've yet to see evidence of his twitter account existing publicly before Byleth's reveal.
That’s just what people theorize, even if it’s likely the case there’s no way to prove it.
Pretty sure Sabi said its very likely this week.
Tbf there's actually a few points that could prove it, the 'leaks' weren't in a single post but spread out as individual posts and if I remember correctly, some were as far as 4 minutes apart, which begs the question of why the account suddenly became inactive? Obviously there's a chance that they were merely interupted but to me it shows that there were posts in between the two that ended up getting deleted
I’m just lowering my expectations.
As Sabi's refused to give anything concrete but maybes and possibly's I've chosen to ignore whatever he says unless he can guarantee it
Some men just want to see the world burn.
Torna fixed, like, all my problems with Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and helped me realize the strengths of XC2 as a result. I just really dislike Rex, but Addam & Mythra or Lora & Jin? I'd be super hyped for.
I see the problem
Amazing how so many people here give Sabi flak, but they never give a reason why.
more like "say anything that isn't ambiguous"
Pretty sure the reason is they always give vague predictions, do so in the most attention-seeking way possible, and generally speaking end up wrong.
Yeah, there are definitely a lot of red flags about him, so there's no reason to hedge any bets on what he's saying, but there's no definitive proof that without a doubt prove he's a faker either. He's at least made it easy for us, unlike other attention seekers his posts are pretty clear and direct, if he gets either the wednesday Direct or Crash wrong he's out, if he gets both right then he's at least worth keeping an eye on, even if they're both fairly safe predictions.
For the past few weeks, if not months, Sabi hasn't disclosed anything, to my knowledge, which wasn't either a) incorrect or b) said earlier by a different, usually more reputable source. Moreover, everything he says he shrouds in an extra layer of vagueness so as to mitigate being wrong, however it results in it being less informative.
Actually, is Wednesday a safe bet? I remember most Directs typically being on Thursdays
I think the September Direct last year (the one where Terry was revealed and Banjo was released shortly after) was on a Wednesday, so possibly yes.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the last thing Sabi got right without any piggybacking an Indie direct? Not the last one but the one before that?
Some of the popular deconfirmations he got right were before Vergeben backed them up.
Sakurai said in the Banjo presentation that Home Run Contest was "pretty much the final mode". That vague statement could still allow for tweaks of existing mode things to come to fruition, like say, a Boss Rush outside of WoL's finale or a Target Test option for Stage Builder maybe, or even online options for stuff like Squad Strike, but there sadly hasn't been anything like that since that presentation other than the reveal of the "Convention" thing in the files being for testing players to be in an IRL tournament in Japan. That only just came up and near the presumed previously planned end of Smash Ultimate DLC with the last Fighter's Pass character being revealed/released, but there hasn't been any other definitive, named outliers datamined to suggest they're being worked on unless they've noticed the hackers and started hiding them like they did with the codenames of new fighters.
They seemed to add a Cuphead costume after the developers specifically talked about the prospect of Cuphead being in Smash, so it's possible!
I understand why All-Star became part of Multi-Man, or whatever it's called in Ultimate, an oldschool All-Star Mode would be ridiculously long at this point. I'm genuinely surprised we don't have Boss Rush though, I know there aren't a ton of bosses in Ultimate, but Sakurai usually puts them in pretty much every game he makes, even as far back as Kirby Super Star.
That has been heavily speculated. Depending if Crash is FP6, that will be the make or break moment for him, for us to know for sure he is lying or not.
Well since Sakurai said that Fighter 6 will take a while to reveal, it does give some room for additional content to existing modes. The one I'm most hoping for is an update to Stage Builder where you can create your own Break the Targets, board the platforms or even a story mode. If creating those modes are too much for the development team, they should get the fans to do it for them by giving us the tools and then allowing us to make them ourselves. Sakurai has seen what the community can do with the tools provided so there shouldn't be any issue with it...
People have been predicting/speculating/hoping for Crash since the first 3rd party DLC character was released. Even if Crash is the first of the next wave, that wouldn't affect their credibility at all. I could have sworn this person's credibility was already put under heavy scrutiny for the leak 'suddenly' appearing and never having been found until after the Byleth reveal. People were scouring the internet for MONTHS, looking at EVERY SINGLE LEAK; you're telling me that this one somehow flew under the radar completely? BS; more likely, it was a part of a spat of tweets while the whole account was privated, then when the 'real' fighter was revealed, they simply deleted the wrong ones, un-privated the account and said 'look, I knew back in November who it was!'.
I was unaware of any leaks or Smash Bubble. I just want her in because I was watching some Granblue Fantasy VS matches and she looks hype, her theme is cool, she uses a rapier (A staple when it comes to my favorite characters) and she has a damn stand!
