Official Newcomer/DLC Speculation Discussion

[Plank08]

Somebody catch me up please. When and where do I need to be paying attention?

BRO A 45 MINUTE TERRY DIRECT IS COMING IN 2 DAYS ITS DOOM TIME BAYBEEEE

 

[Rie Sonomura]

anyone wanna check FP5's page ONE MORE TIME to see what the copyright says now? Like if it says either "Id Software/Bethesda" or "Capcom" or even "Monolith Soft/Bandai Namco"

 

[Wunderwaft]

I said I was on Team Resident Evil and I haven't changed my mind. I'm still sticking with my prediction that the next fighter is a Resident Evil rep.

Just did and it's the same.

 

[TheCJBrine]

That doesn't really look like a jiggle, more like it fell off and then snapped back into place.

Yeah, the top of the hat falls sideways a bit and goes back, with the whole hat itself seeming to deform a tad, so it's kinda like the Slime hat's jiggle except it's not as intense. I don't know how else to describe it, so I just call it a jiggle.

Watch instead to our disappointment that after Terry's segment its just Sakurai talking about how King of Fighters history is what inspired Smash Bros. ;P

Seems that it hasn't been updated at all, looks like they learned from last time.

THAT'S TOMORROW IN MY TIME

IT'S JUDGEMENT DAY Y'ALL

 

[SNEKeater]

I said I was on Team Resident Evil and I haven't changed my mind. I'm still sticking with my prediction that the next fighter is a Resident Evil rep.

I would bet on Resident Evil if I have to a few days ago. Now, with the new leak I don't know.

I think FP5 could be a Namco character as well. But Doomslayer fits in my opinion. We will see! I feel we will have an unexpected surprise and that won't be a character announcement.

 

[Sour Supreme]

Sabi was wrong!
Aha!

Spoiler

AhaHAHAahhahaHaahAhHhahHahHahAhAhHahHahHaHhahHahHahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

 

[PrettyIvyPearls22]

Honestly, where are Verge and all of these other so-called leakers when you actually need them when stuff like this happen and the whole fanbase is practically on fire! Now, is the time to say "Hey, WE KNOW SOMETHING!"

What was she wrong about (this time)?

Say it with me:

R U O K'HEY

Nope

 

[Rie Sonomura]

So uh judging by leaks, including this one:

the one Flyboy showed which said Phoenix Wright and Terry on Nov 6, and then KOS-MOS by the guy who (supposedly) said Buddy was Banjo's codename

i'd say FP5 is a three way race between Doom Slayer, KOS-MOS and Phoenix. neither have been confirmed nor denied

WE DON'T HAVE ****ING WORD FROM THEM YET.

BUT STILL.

I CAST MY DOUBTS FOR 45 MINUTES

FORGET ABOUT DOOM SLAYER OR GENO

IF THE PHOENIX WRIGHT LEAK IS REAL I'LL GENUINELY BE SURPRISED

 

[SNEKeater]

-tweet removed - talked about the Terry presentation along with the 4chan thread that was screencapped here-

lol I didn't know this one

FROGGER

 

[N3ON]

Don't worry, in a few minutes Sabi will say, "The showcase should prove interesting! Or maybe it won't! Can't say yet! I'm waiting to hear back from some people, so stayed tuned! But get ready for surprises, unless there aren't any!"

It seems the Mallow hat does, in fact, jiggle a bit (not by me, was shared in the Geno thread):

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/471823527645937675/641072027825864715/morejiggle.mp4

That doesn't really look like a jiggle, more like it fell off and then snapped back into place.

After all the he-said-she-said leaks of recent memory, it's nice to get back to a "let's dissect it frame-by-frame" kind of leak.

 

[Rie Sonomura]

[SNIP]

lol I didn't know this one

f***** FROGGER

um... SWEARING? You might wanna spoiler box that so u don't get warned for censor dodging

 

[Michael the Spikester]

I've checked the other videos of Sakurai showcasing the other DLC fighters they've ranged from 15 to 20-25 minutes.

I think its safe to say we will get our next fighter(s) revealed on Wednesday.

 

[Deleted member]

lol I didn't know this one

f***** FROGGER

Uh....? It's 4chan so I'll ignore it.

 

[Sour Supreme]

What was she wrong about (this time)?

Implied that if a Terry advertisement wasn't up at 7/11 today, we wouldn't see Terry for another few weeks.

Sounds like she was speculating versus actually leaking.

 

[Wigglerman]

If Frogger legit got into Smash, then...it's Game Over. That's it. Best game. 100/1. *****/**. Sakurai retires and receives his angel wings. World peace.

 

[Guynamednelson]

long presentation just after huge leak with a runtime that promises to deliver on said leak?

yup, 40 minutes of terry input moves and 5 minutes of mii costumes confirmed

"You may notice a random assortment of characters on the sidelines. This one is Kyo Kusanagi. He's the protagonist of the King of Fighters series. And this one is Iori Yagami, his rival. And this lady is Mai Shiranui. She's popular for a certain reason that...we couldn't show in Smash Bros. Over here is Ryo Sakazaki. He's the protagonist of Art of Fighting. Looks familiar, doesn't he? He was one of my mains when I played The King of Fighters '95. Next we have Ralf Jones, the protagonist of Ikari Warriors..."

 

[Michael the Spikester]

So how iconic is Frogger exactly and what legacy did he left that'd get him into Smash?

Not too familiar with the character having never played the games.

 

[N3ON]

We're not getting Frogger you maniacs.

 

[Sour Supreme]

Sounds like she was speculating versus actually leaking.

Still wrong.

 

[Wigglerman]

So how iconic is Frogger exactly and what legacy did he left that'd get him into Smash?

Frogger is among Pac-Man, Galaga, Space Invaders, Centepede and other arcade hits of the era.

Edit: Also another Konami rep which would be the most left field rep they coulda had.

 

[King Sonnn DeDeDoo]

Dang, I have an appointment with my therapist exactly when the direct is going on. Oh well, mental health before smash bros.

Anyway, let’s go Phoenix!

 

[Garteam]

5 mins of Terry, 40 mins of "poor souls".

"This poor soul is Geese Howard, he's fallen off his 30-story building 17 separate times."
"This poor soul is Mai Shiranui, she's contractually obligated to show as much cleavage as possible and can't get the attention of her senpai, Andy."
"This poor soul is Joe Higashi, he hasn't had too many bad things happen to him, poor kid's just as dumb as a stump."

 

[SNEKeater]

Nintendo leaked the presentation.

Spoiler

joking, I'm sorry

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Frogger is among Pac-Man, Galaga, Space Invaders, Centepede and other arcade hits of the era.

Fair enough then.

I also recall he's Konami who owns Metal Gear and Castlevania.

 

[Mango The Magician]

No leak should get credit for guessing November 6 since every leak since Oct 6 has been guessing November 6.

 

[Goombaic]

What a list of potential fighters. At least one of these guys in is in the game if these leaks are to be believed.

Doom Slayer
Geno
Phoenix Wright
Frogger

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Dang, I have an appointment with my therapist exactly when the direct is going on. Oh well, mental health before smash bros.

Anyway, let’s go Phoenix!

I have a therapist appointment as well granted later in the day so I'll still be able to attend the video.

 

[Wunderwaft]

Nintendo leaked the presentation.

Spoiler

joking

Bro you nearly gave me a heart attack.

 

[Wigglerman]

Fair enough then.

Correct, which would be a hilarious and out of left field rep for Konami of all things. I dig it. Not dig dug it, that'd be Bamco. But...I'll stop now. XD

It's happening!

 

[PrettyIvyPearls22]

Someone refresh our memory, how long were the other presentations like this?
