Some Smash info would be nice, but I'm not holding my breath for anything new... and I'm more interested in any info involving the phrases "Darkstalkers" and "Versus Series" anyway.
I can't read Japanese, so I've no idea what it says about the collection, but it looks like just a physical version of the Ace Attorney HD Trilogy that was already released... or is this supposed to be a new collection with more games?

I just saw the pictures, and the collection is the original trilogy plus the The Great Ace Attorney Duology, which never came out outside of Japan.
I'm just don't like the fact that games that have basically nothing to do with each other mechanically would be considered a part of the same genre. Aside from special cases like the party genre where it's more to describe games that are good for parties (as an oversimplification), it defeats the purpose of genres in the first place. That's why I was advocating for the subgenres. From what I've seen from Dark Souls, it looks more akin to The Legend of Zelda than it does an actual RPG so that's why I said it wasn't one.
I don't think any of these of these are RPGs.
Wait, I thought those two games were in their own collection, based on the image.
There was an SNK copyright leak back in...late August, I believe?
Dark Souls literally has a levelling and innate stat building element to it that's important for using weapons, magic and armour.
Well, there's also the two Ace Attorney Investigations games, one of which is infamous for not being officially released in the West despite fans begging for it. Maybe they're saving 4, 5 and 6 for another collection with the Investigations games?
Yeah, my bad. Both AA Original Trilogy and the Great Ace Attorney Duology are part of the same collection. Though the image is in complete japanese so I don't know if we could assume this would be released in the West
Did this have any bearing on Smash?
Yeah, it was Smash's copyright that was accidentally updated too soon.
August 2019 on the Fighter's Pass DLC page an SNK Copyright appeared and then Terry was revealed about a couple days later. so yes it did.
It was more like 3-4 days later. but yeah it did mean Smash all the Way
Oh, Perk said it was back in late August, so I assumed he meant August of this year.
Correction: Terry was revealed a few days later, and the leak happened on September 1.
I just want AAI2...
I hope they do an Investigations collection
From my understanding, an ironic weeb is someone who likes anime and anime games (like a typical weeb) but is insecure about it and probably wouldn't be open about it in an unironic fashion. Urban Dictionary has two definitions for this term (for some peculiar reason), and The Self-Hating Weeb has a video on this topic as well if you're interested (be warned that there's swearing though).
I think it has the same problem with the "Activision leak" in which even if it's real, some burro could've edited it to include that one line just to play us the fool. (It happened before with some news regarding Devil May Cry.)
Welp, now we gotta deal with THIS problem, I just know it...
What problem? Does this leak have anything to do with Super Smash Bros. or are you just anticipating the "new game = they in" mentality?
At the same time though, I highly doubt they're actively avoiding it. My thinking is still that if Nintendo's looking for a Capcom character, they're going to go for one of the ones that are doing things on Ninetendo consoles as opposed to the others. I think these games help Phoenix Wright in this regard, and while I wouldn't say he's more likely than a Monster Hunter character, I do think this makes him more likely than Dante.
The mentality, and the fact that they might have leaked the fact that two major Switch exclusives won't actually be Switch exclusives before the games are even out. There's gonna be people who'll decide they'd rather wait than buy them on Switch. You know the ones...
I think it is impossible to tell who could potentially be revealed at the Game Awards did anyone think Joker Persona 5 would be revealed at the Game Awards? and from what I can tell Byleth was also planned to be revealed at the TGA's
In the pre-Smash 4 days, we wouldn't be in dry season very often at all.
If we were to get a TGA reveal this year, I think it would be a character that had a major release this year such as, but (obviously) not limited to, Crash or Doomguy.
I'd add Geno to that list. It's a super long shot, but I could see it, especially if partnered with a Super Mario RPG remake or rerelease or something.
It's been a month and 2 days since Steve. It ain't "Dry Season" until we hit the 2 month marker.
That's a month and 2 days too many.
Remember We are Working on '2020 Time™' So every month is simultaneously a week and 3 months all in one package.
That's too long for you?
I feel like Feb is a little 'too' pessimistic tbh.
I don't see why it is pessimistic, considering how the devs will (likely) be taking the usual holidy break and (to a lesser extent) that COVID's recently had a spike in cases.
