There we go I guess.
Well ****. I guess we're going to be in for an even longer month for FP5.



Next thing you know, those hat leaks were actually real but Nintendo decided to punish everyone by delaying the last Fighter announcement because of what happened.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

welp. it's either TGA or January for FP5 then... they'll prob showcase other stuff like mii costumes, online modes, WoL Very Hard Mode maybe...

say, any Notable Figures retweet the direct announcement? probably not since they claim there's no new characters...

If there are no fighter reveals in the upcoming video then the Mallow/Cacodemon Mii costume leak just took a dark turn assuming the leak was legit and these mii costumes are getting revealed in the upcoming video.
Ruh roh. "Doomguy's chances get ripped and teared"??

Has Nintendo ever been this adamant and direct about unreleased characters not being included with the Hero/Banjo presentations? It just seems odd that they’d start doing that now.

They sure are reinforcing the fact that no other characters will be announced during this presentation, unless someone has an “objection”.
Yeah. Maybe sounds dumb and I don't know if they would go that far as posting an official tweet saying "no characters announcements" only for doing the joke of Phoenix saying "objection!" at the end.

But at the same time, I don't know why, I can see that happening. I'm feeling it.

Unless the leak was recorded a long ass time ago, it's extremely unlikely that either intended to be released with Terry, they wouldn't be testing them still when the DLC releases in 2 days.

Yep and it's the right amount of cluster **** I'm ready for and alluded to in an earlier post. If you believe this leak, you best hope they don't show up Wednesday, since I really think it will be a massacre.

I think you kind of have to be with a fanbase like Smash's. Like you need to beat it in that "NO this isn't happening"

I'm pretty sure everyone's hearts will skip a few beats when this eventually pops up during the livestream:

Meh...
If there is not going to be an announcement as part of the presentation, I think I'll just forego it and read a recap after-the-fact.

Probably just to shut everyone up.
They wouldn't go that far just for a joke, wouldn't they?

I guess they haven’t really had to clarify until now, cause Joker was shadowdropped, we already knew Banjo was after Hero, and we already knew Terry was after Banjo. This is the first time a presentation is occurring without knowledge of who the succeeding fighter is.

At this point I think the best case scenario is Sakurai telling us when we can expect a FP5 announcement

If this really is the case, I sincerely hope he at least gives us a timeframe for when they'll be discussing upcoming fighters. This is so weird.

Maybe this presentation comes bundled with a trailer for The King of Fighters XV... that's 30 minutes long for some strange reason?

I can totally see Sakurai say “By the way, I know you want to hear about upcoming DLC Fighters, and while we are working hard on new fighters, we are not prepared to show you anything at this time.” Then A big huge “OBJECTION” pops up on the screen.

Eager to see the Terry breakdown. I've been pretty eager to see how he'll be in motion. Gotten more and more amped to play him. Dunno if he'll become a main but I've been looking for a new character to tool around with besides Pac-Man (Especially in my friends lobbies as they banned me from using Pac-Man XD). I'm just enjoying the ride. Glad I'm not one to get too swept up in all this. I've enough stress in my life than to overly stress over Smash DLC schedules/announcements.

However I do hope for all yall's sake that something gets announced/teased at the end despite their disclaimer. Wouldn't wanna see half of the Smash Boards community simultaneously die due from withdrawal on news :3 <3

I swear to God if I have to get up at 10AM to watch a presentation that's 45 minutes of a single fighter when Hero (who has quadruple as many special moves as any other fighter) took only 20 something...

Well I'm gonna be upset and feel stupid and go back to bed.
>Terry's presentation
>Stage
>Music
>Coin battle mode
>Last 3 online modes
>Mii costumes
>A little hint that the last fighter is the most complex of all DLC fighters
Rate it.

Alright this will probably be my last post for tonight.

With 45 minutes, it's the most jampacked presentation to date. I'm mainly hoping for an absolute shocker reveal with the last fighter not being Phoenix, Doom Slayer, or Geno. Instead, it's Zhao Yun from Dynasty Warriors, but not only that, it's also Yukimura Sanada from Samurai Warriors as an echo fighter. Of course, the odds are stacked against that being reality with what's been happening currently, but it'd be incredibly hype for me to hear it happen (and I say hear because my workplace allows me to wear earbuds during work so at least I can tune in to the audio). Unless we get a last second update from any credible leaker before 3 PST, I'll see ya'll tomorrow :)
They said no new fighters.

Only Smash fans can take the statement "We won't reveal any unrevealed fighters" and think it means they will reveal a fighter.

Nintendo themselves said no unrevealed fighters.

Now let us wait and see how the Miissacre of November 2019 plays out!

inb4 everyone speculated the past month is a Mii costume and then we get Morrigan at the Game Awards

If we're not getting a new reveal with Terry, maybe they're planning a VGA reveal again? Interesting times.

Nintendo is saying no new fighters will be revealed this direct. Whether you believe it is on you.

Not sure on the mii fighter things

Either way, we will get 45 minutes of pure Terry hype. The SNK fangirl in me is freaking out like CHIZZZZ
