Crash 4 isn't coming on the Switch though is it? At least not yet. Would be kinda weird to time the reveal of Crash and only promote the releases on other consoles.

Then again, Crash has always been a popular choice and he may be planned regardless of Crash 4, and if delays have happened, sure.

It's all up in the air tbh. I have no idea who do expect, and I love it.

I just realized, given that the presentation is only three minutes and Sakurai has a short announcement he wants to make, odds are we're pulling another Terry, where we just see the CG portion of the trailer.

With gameplay, Smash character trailers can end up between 2 to 4.5 minutes in length. Unless we're getting a 2 minute trailer and Sakurai is really just running on camera, making his announcement in under a minute, and skedaddling, we're not seeing gameplay tomorrow

While it is not a gurantee there are a lot of things lining up for steve to be revealed,the fact that the presentation is only 3 minutes long plus a announcement of sakurai it could very well be possible that more information will be shown at minecon

Oh, I thought the trailers were shorter than that.

I hope we'll at least get to see the render in full.

For every 3rd party characters, the trailer was shown alone without any explanation, then the Sakurai presents happened later. For Byleth and Min Min, the presentation included the reveal + explanation. For this reason, I think it's 3rd party this time. This could also mean that the character isn't finalized and that the release date is not very close.

Interesting thought

So we are only getting the trailer tommorow, eh?

Then my guess is further detail could come next week, and we will get a playable character at the later phase of this month.

Hmm 3 minute trailer time doesn't necessarily mean it's a fighter with a big gimmick, could be a fighter with two gender options like Byleth or an Alph style alt type of thing.

Probably gonna be 3rd party because it’s just a trailer but if the message at the end is a delay then I could see this being dropped to satiate our curiosity and end up being a first party whose gameplay isn’t in a completed state.

it seems worth noting that this is branded as a 'Mr Sakurai Presents' like all the other presentations, despite only being three minutes

given the circumstances (sakurai said in the Min Min presentation that he almost considered just doing a reveal trailer instead of a longer presentation), i have a feeling this might actually be the equivalent to the other presentations and he just didn't have the time in this instance to put something longer together

Yes.
Well, looks like it will be just the trailer, it's not a good clue, probably we should wait a bit more than usual. Looks like I'm not the only one worring about this.
Anyway, could be anyone but after 2 Nintendo fighters I prefer a third party. My guts (just thinking about the Ubi Mii cosplays) says that Rayman will happen in the pass but not necessarily tomorrow. I'll be happy with him, I love the french comic style. After Banjo-Kazooie and Min Min and Dixie seeming out for this kind of stuff I don't have a big most wanted but Doom Guy could make me scream at the screen.
Leaks will happen right now, so stay safe.

Can't believe Nintendo had the audacity to clown on me twice in the span of 2 minutes

Ever want to find a reaction image so bad but you just can't find it?

For me right now it's the one of Rise of Darkrai with Ash having climbed the entire tower while the others took a hot air balloon ride

"FIIIIIIIIIIINALY!"

WELCOME BACK!!!

How are you doing?

Considering it is three minutes long, what will Sakurai say?

Also, 3 minutes probably means we see the render and some bits of gameplay. I don't think they ever made 3 minutes of full video trailer.

Why would it be that short tho?? Maybe all the core mechanics are shown in the trailer?
Click to expand...
...Possibly. I'll keep my prediction of trailer + Sakurai says "delay", with a chance of no gameplay though.

Do they think the long Sakurai Presents videos give away too much or something? Are there not gonna be any more Mii costumes?
Click to expand...
Oh yeah, shoot. What about the Mii Costumes? Is this gonna be the first character with two Sakurai Presents?

Inb4 people theorize it's someone who said something to the effect of "sorry to keep you waiting" at some point in their gaming history.

Robin and Lucina's trailer is close enough. What do you mean by "full video trailer", exactly? That none of those 3 minutes are gameplay?

With a high chance of potential spoilers, I'm gonna take a break until after the trailer tomorrow.

Good luck speculating everyone!

I follow this. Whether I end up liking the character or not, I’d at least like to keep the mystery of who it is till they’re revealed. I’ll see you all tomorrow after 10am EST.
