I've had a fascination with calling Reimu lately. I haven't even played Touhou but my Monado Vision is kicking in.

I'll only accept this if it means Yoko Shimomura remixes.

It turns out we're getting a spinoff character who's name starts with "G" and is plant themed
...just one many would dislike,
Grovyle gets a pass. It's more Pokemon but he ain't an ad. I think he's not an ad unless they announce another PMD remake. Or was he in the remake? I never ****ing played those games.
I'll be oversleeping by one minute, try to hop onto YT before it's too late, and first thing I see is ProsafiaGaming looming over me.

So is this Jeff guy legit then?
About as legit as anyone else from the past few days making Geno jokes.

I really don't know what to make of the Jeff Grubb tweet. Either he is blatantly spoiling the Smash reveal or he is trolling Geno fans into thinking he is blatantly spoiling the Smash reveal. Neither of those things seem "on brand", but I don't follow him that closely.

Eeyup. People just splatter the bosses on the thumbnails and ruin the surprise. Aside from Profasia, there's also Boss Fight Database, who considerately made separate videos for all the major Bloodstained bosses and spoiled the final boss and the bonus boss. What a nice pair of guys, eh?
Welcome aboard the Reimu train, pal. I'd offer some snacks but Reimu buying anything would violate canon severely, so...

What I usually do is go directly to Nintendo's youtube page when I open the browser. They pretty much always put a new direct as the home page video, so you don't end up seeing anything. As long as leaker people are right about the direct timing, it should be pretty safe to do that.

My personal thoughts on the Jeff Grubb tweets.
I generally can't tell what's going on anymore, apparently some people earlier were teasing the Direct in the Geno thread this morning, making people think it meant Geno was coming, only to be shut down and now Geno's getting teased by an actual creditable person?

I don't think that Jeff Grubb is teasing Geno on those tweet. He imply earlier (like yesterday I think) that he haven't heard anything about a direct coming, so it would be weird that he suddenly know the next smash fighter.

Hmm... A lovecraftian eldritch undefinable alien monstrosity hell-bent on destruction, chaos and ceaseless evisceration, it having unfathomable and limitless powers of desolation alongside the ability to aquire alternate forms which only aid it in the process of reducing everything around its reality-defying and indescribably horrific body to atomized rubble...
Looks like him and Kirby are two peas in a pod!
Maybe he is just doing all those tweets to throw Geno fans off?

Jeff obviously knows how people will see those 2 tweets. I doubt he's trolling, the salt and the complains against him would be massive if he was actually trolling Geno fans lmao.
He has been 99% right this year in everything he has said, and not only for Nintendo related things, also for Microsoft and Sony. Honestly, I'm assuming it's Geno because of him.
With that said, I'll say: if it's Geno and the direct is tomorrow, I'd rather insiders to keep quiet. Just as N3ON said, if Kelios is right, we will get the direct in less than 24 hours, so spoiling the character now seems stupid for me. If you're gonna leak the character, at least do it a week before. Don't wait until the last moment.
Who knows maybe all this Geno thing is a super leakbait move from Nintendo and we will get another Square character lol

Haven't played TWEWY yet (idk if getting the Switch version because of the mixed receptions about how it plays on the console) but Neku seems like a really cool choice, I'd be completely okay with him.

This whole thing is weird:
If it is bait then it was a **** move to bait those who want Geno
If it is an actual hint then it's a **** move to spoil it for everyone else
OR we are all assuming this is for smash and it could just be a hint at like Mario RPG on Snes online or something like that

Would probably be one of my "Non" Promo Pokemon picks for Smash too.
I would absolutely love Grovyle, He's my all time favorite Grass type Pokemon, I always liked Sceptile, But always thought Grovyle's design was cooler.

Yeah. It's either a spoiler or deliberate bait for Geno fans. And yes, this could also not relate to Smash at all. Except, putting Super Mario RPG on SNES will only make the Geno supporters even more motivated.

A Direct is just a bunch of commercials. I'm not sure why you think commercials have to be watched live in order to work...
Pokemon in Smash peaked in Smash 4, when we had the largest number of Pokemon without any type overlap. And the potential for future great choices to give us new type-coverage was at it's peak for characters like Decidueye and Garchomp.
But then Trainer came back and they picked Incineroar and ruined everything and now who gives a **** who they pick anymore, none of it matters.

Just click on the three dots near the video name and choose "don"t recommend this channel". Problem solved.

I mean, as much as I don't give a rat's ass about Geno and feel there's infinitely better options for both Mario and Square, there's nothing wrong with that

Yeah, just after Kelios saying it's a general Direct as far as he knows and that it won't be shadowdropped.
