Official Newcomer/DLC Speculation Discussion

No one is talking about the important news:

We got another cat outfit in Animal Crossing.

Nah. The new skin tones are the real important news.

Finally, blue and green-skinned people will no longer feel left out

With the AC update I guess that leaves us with a Tuesday announcement next week for a presentation happening on Thursday. The only way I don't see that happening is if Pokemon practices their heel role once again to laugh at Smash fans and feast on their despair.

Or it turns out there's YET ANOTHER game to shadowdrop. They're probably planning Welcome Back Boxboy for next week, followed by Chibi-Robo: We Don't Know What to Do With This Franchise So Uhh Labo I Guess for the following week.

 

[RileyXY1]

I could see GF do a Crown Tundra presentation next week.

Chibi-Robo: We Don't Know What to Do With This Franchise So Uhh Labo I Guess

That would be the most transparent thing Nintendo could ever do for 2020, honestly.

 

[SMAASH! Puppy]

Just realized I am going to be in school while this Smash presentation happens...

You think that's bad, once you're out of school and get a job, or go to college in the summer, they will never not have their presentations when you can't watch them.

Well...You at least don't have to worry about the Chibi-Robo game happening. Though a Chibi-Robo game for the Nintendo Labo stuff might be pretty decent.

Whatever happened to Nintendo Labo anyway? Did it not catch on?

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Next week or the week after I'm calling.

If Pokemon next week then its the week after.

At least, the quality of a Direct isn't affected by whether you specifically can watch it live or not.

I've had that curse since 2017, with the E3s being the sole exceptions to that pattern.

 

[RileyXY1]

Pikmin 3 Deluxe is also coming out next month so Nintendo might want to promote that too.

 

[Evil Trapezium]

Check this out.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

I pick Klonoa, Geno, Crash Bandicoot, Travis Touchdown and Phoenix Wright.

No, but it is less hype imo, and it's really difficult to avoid spoilers. Makes me glad that I don't have set hours right now, so I can just do whatever so long as I get everything done.

My picks.

2B, Amaterasu, Crash Bandicoot, Elma, and Phoenix Wright.

 

[RileyXY1]

And besides, considering that FP2 is struggling in sales that ad might have been put there just to get more people to buy it.

 

[AceAttorney9000]

Next week or the week after I'm calling.

If Pokemon next week then its the week after.

Pokemon Crown Tundra happening next week feels pretty likely to me, because it's technically more "time sensitive" than Smash due to having to be out by November, I think. Still would prefer Smash coming first, because Crown Tundra would still have plenty of room for its own time in the spotlight before coming out in November.

Out of all those... Geno, Crash, Bandana Waddle Dee, Phoenix Wright, and Rex.

You're never optimistic about anything.

Master Chief, Dante, Crash, 2B & Sora. Basically my dream line-up.

 

[zferolie]

Actually, I think it's just Granblue Fantasy. As far as I know, they haven't made any plans to release the game in Europe even though it's already in English, which likely means they're happy with their current playerbase, which means they certainly wouldn't care enough to promote it with a fighter.

True, and other the Fate Grand Order ot is the longest running and most successful gatcha game right now.

No shantae makes me sad, but still a bunch of characters i want. Gonna go with Reimu, Rex, Crash, Arle, and KOSMOS

It is pretty bizarre to think Crown Tundra is already approaching.

 

[The Stoopid Unikorn]

Not gonna work since the reason it's struggling is because we know only a sixth of it after 8 months.

Though one thing people overlook is how the ads have a 50/50 track record. Only Hero and Byleth actually got their dates predicted with these ads, iirc.

Yeah. It's not a guarantee that we will see a fighter soon, but some people have put their hopes extremely high thanks to the ad and Amiibo Theory.

 

[Deleted member]

A part of me thinks Rex is very likely, but a part of me isn't really feeling Rex's chances either.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Riley no offense but for once can you stop being a pessimistic always expecting the worst outcome regarding FP7? Sorry for calling you off on it but it's been getting really annoying and everyone likely including me is sick of it.

 

[zumaddy]

An FGO character would be amazing because a) I like FGO and b) the announcement would make the Smash community go completely feral

 

[Deleted member]

So, since we got something at 9am, does that mean we don't need to wait for anything to be announced at 10 or will there still be something?

I can hear the "ANOTHER ANIME CHARACTER???" complaints from eighty four kilometers away.

Lets goo new skintones and eye colors

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Probably the former. Either next week or week after are our best bets assuming Pokemon ain't next week.

 

[The Stoopid Unikorn]

Next week or the week after I'm calling.

If Pokemon next week then its the week after.

Is it really a good prediction if you just say "it'll be next week" every week we don't get anything?

 

[Deleted member]

Phoenix Wright is my most wanted character that I feel like has a decent shot.

I'm skeptical on Steve's chances, and I have a higher chance of winning the lottery than the Terrarian getting in.

No, but all it takes is being correct once and you can start an entire youtube channel over it like BlockedContent

Winter is coming!

Finally, I hate the heat.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Then watch you start complaining about the cold.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

itys gonna be a painful 5 days of wait for this AC update

 

[RileyXY1]

Not much, aside from Age of Calamity that will be out in November.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

If that's the case, the latest we could see FP7 is the middle of October.

Unless miraclely Nintendo decides to pull something out of nowhere.

 

[RileyXY1]

If that's the case, latest we could see FP7 is middle of October.

And besides, releasing CP7 in October would leave Nintendo with nothing to promote in the last two months of the year aside from Age of Calamity and 2021 titles.

Probably Bad Smash Character Ideas: Azura. Her Final Smash in a cinematic where she dances and the opponent(s) are inflicted with increasing discomfort.
