I'm curious about something.
Are people panicking over Nintendo having maintenances?

I'm pretty sure I recall they did state that the fighters voted in would be considered for future games. At least in the European one.I think Nintendo should have stated that the ballot could be used for future games. They actually did that for the Japanesse Version, but Ones in the U.S and Europe I believe didn't have that fine Print, And it's kind of bogus considering it seemed 95% of the Ballot was used mostly for Ultimate and not For smash 4
I think it did have a fine print on the US and Europe websites, but who reads fine prints these days, amirite?I think Nintendo should have stated that the ballot could be used for future games.

Bringing this back if anyone else wants to give it a whirlNew NEW forum game(TM)
so with the Ultimate Deluxe idea that DLC would have their own spaces in Ult DX’s WoL, where would you place those characters?
for me;
Piranha Plant - Light Realm, just to have one more villainous character under Galeem’s control for irony purposes, we have a lot of heroic characters under Dharkon’s control so
Joker - Dark Realm, just because the aesthetic fits
Hero - Light Realm, he’s seen fighting Dharkon and their minions in his trailer and Galeem is Dharkon’s natural enemy
Banjo & Kazooie - Light Realm, tbh almost all the cartoony characters are there anyway
Terry - Dark Realm, idk why
Byleth - either, but Light Realm is preferred to have one more FE character there (currently it’s only Marth and Roy, everyone else from FE is in the Dark Realm)
Min Min - Light Realm obviously since her Spirit was there in Vanilla Ult
Steve - also Light Realm
and for some of my ideal Ultimate DLC picks:
Elma - Dark Realm, to contrast Shulk being in the Light Realm
KOS-MOS - Dark Realm
Arle - Light Realm
Octoling - Dark Realm, cause the Spirit they’re based on (Octoling Girl & Octoling Boy) is there. The one named Octoling is in the Light Realm and technically of the Enemy Octoling, not the Octo Expansion kind
Crash - Light Realm, as previously established with cartoony characters
Neku - Light Realm, to contrast fellow Nomura-designed character Cloud being in the Dark Realm
Ahri - Dark Realm
Black Shadow - Dark Realm cause he’s an Edgy(TM) villain
Falcom character - if Adol or Estelle, Light Realm. If Rean, Dark Realmcause Trails of Cold Steel. dark and edgy. Get it???
Hm... so you're thinking they ultimately backed out?I figured it as well as several insider's claimed that Byleth's intended reveal was supposed to be December. And their trailer starts in the same way Joker's TGA one started.
I suppose. But it may have gotten them bad publicity.On the other hand, it seems weird to think that revealing Byleth at TGA instead of a Sakurai Presents would somehow hurt sales. That's the bottom line of all "reception" based arguments; unless it negatively impacts sales it doesn't matter.

I am the guy who goes around saying that in the Byleth video-I have a theory, and I wouldn't be surprised if it's been discussed already, that the only reason we didn't get a TGA 2019 reveal was because it would've been Byleth. They wouldn't have been well received at such a huge cross platform event, and Nintendo likely understood that it wasn't the best way to advertise their DLC pass.
In my eyes, there really isn't a good reason to not use TGA to their advantage as it has become such a huge event rivialng even E3. I think a reveal is very likely this time around, and if we don't get one it's likely that it isn't very exciting.
I'll appreciate Jump Stars more when they have Magical Girls.And Super Smash Bros. vs. Jump Stars.

I knew you’d do something like thatHere I go!
Piranha Plant - Light Realm - somewhere near Donkey Kong.
Joker - Dark Realm - Mysterious Area.
Hero - Dark Realm - Sacred Area.
Banjo & Kazooie - Light realm - Near Dr. Mario
Terry Bogard - Light Realm - Street Fighter area
Byleth - Light Realm - Near Bowser's Castle I guess
Min Min - Light Realm - Stick her behind the Spring Man spirit.

My most wanted characters
Axel Stone - Light Realm - In the city near Inkling
Klonoa - Light Realm - Near Jigglypuff and Yoshi

Asha: Dark Realm, On path to Dracula's Castle
The Monster World IV protagonist.Question, who’s Asha?
If bad publicity for showing Byleth was a concern then they wouldn't have put Byleth in, it's more likely that the Smash trailer and the Ashen Wolves trailer weren't finished on timeHm... so you're thinking they ultimately backed out?
I suppose. But it may have gotten them bad publicity.
It's not just a part of the background anymore.
Maybe a new big bad on Galeem and Dharkon’s level too?If we had an expansion of Ultimate with more WOL content, I would like a brand new map with all DLC and new characters present on it. Something new. Maybe new sub areas. Just a new map to explore.

I just imagine the intro cutscene showing Galeem's and Dharkon's fall and defeat, followed up by the entire cast's exhausted but relieved reactions to this finally being over, and turning around to resume Smash Bros activities... only for an ominous rumble to draw their attentions back to where Galeem and Dharkon fell, revealing Galeem's and Dharkon's bigger and badder daddy materializing into existence.Maybe a new big bad on Galeem and Dharkon’s level too?
what would they represent? Aether? The void? Fire, Water, Wind or Earth?
Points aligning for a potential November announcement of some sort (likely to be Smash related; ergo, CP 8 reveal).
Those are some of things I could gather from what I've kept up with. Certainly there's more I think.
- In previous years, Nintendo has held a noteworthy Direct within the month of November.
- The last two years, Nintendo has had Smash-themed Directs/Presents in November (2018 being the last Smash Direct prior to the game's release, and 2019 being the Mr. Sakurai Presents Terry Bogard).
- It was stated that the October Partner Showcase would be the last of its kind for the rest of the year, opening up the possibility of a Direct akin to the usual General Directs, or Direct Mini (or a game-specific-themed Direct).
- The Super Smash Bros. Ultimate North American Online Open October 2020 Tournament ended last Sunday, November 1st. Two other past Smash Tournaments of a similar format (NA Online Open, and VS Cup Challenge) this year saw the eventual reveal of Challenger Packs 6 and 7 not long after their conclusion (with the reveal gap being no more than five days after the tournament's conclusion).
- A few days ago there were some minor, almost unnoticed changes in the Smash website, specifically on Steve/Alex's character banner on the Fighter's section; one day appearing with the tag "New Coming 10/3/2020", the next day only saying "New", and then going back to saying "New Coming 10/3/2020".
- Nintendo's Six Months Earnings report will go live this coming Thursday, November 5th. After said reports have been published, notable game news have followed soon after.
- Two additional maintenance subjects have been added to the scheduled November 16th maintenance.
- The Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Super Mario Bros. 35th Anniversary-themed Tournament's exact date(s) is still to be announced for December.
- Yesterday Nintendo uploaded the first of their Monthly Rewind videos for the year. Among the news were many noteworthy moments such as the Hyrule Warrios: Age of Calamity news, the Pikmin 3 Deluxe release, as well as the October Partner Showcase. November's Monthly Rewind will most likely go over notable announcements to be made within this month.
I doubt it. I bet that CP8 will be a January release.We might see a reveal this month or December, but for the actual release date? I'd be surprised if it's earlier than April or May.
My gut says early February, but it depends on a lot of external factors, like if Steve was all hands on deck for programming or if the hypothetical delays Sakurai mentioned actually amounted to anything. A lot of people are thinking the next fighter will be simpler and take less development time, though, so we'll see.I doubt it. I bet that CP8 will be a January release.
To be fair I didn’t say it would be Smash related or even Direct relatedHave maintenances ever once meant something?!
Every time this thread has hyped themselves up over maintenances it has always ended in disappointment
