Assist Trophies have sound effects too. This doesn't change much, tbh.


We already could guess she was in the game in some form.
I like finding out stuff like this, but if people make tooo much of simple things, it's jumping the gun way too much. take it easy. (though still enjoy the ride ;))

It can happen whenever, really.

That said, it's also the Health & Body Holiday in Japan, so it was a pretty good time to actually show it.

Wolf was posted on a sunday too. Why would it matter anyway?

Fighters can appear on any day except Music day (The only one being an exception is Simon for obvious reasons)

Doesn't seem like there's anything new of note in terms of announcements for now. We just have to play the waiting game and see what comes next. :)

So this is a weird thought I had earlier, it seems like Shantae’s able to speak in her animal forms if her calling out some of her attacks is any indication. If the Shantae series had full voice acting and she was able to talk and interact with others transformed, do you think Cristina should use the same voice for her animal forms or let her use different voices like for example her Hawk voice from Seven Deadly Sins for her Monkey form, her Cerebella voice from Skullgirls for her Elephant form, etc.?

(Sorry I don’t have much to contribute to the current conversation, I’m just kinda waiting on announcements as well)

She really only talks in Harpy form.

You didn't miss much, Dylly. We're all just sitting here with bundles of tin foil around to make fresh hats while we wait for some semblance of an announcement to get hype over. Only thing of note is that Christina Vee liked a tweet asking if Shantae would be in Smash. But she might've just liked it for the fun picture of Shantae whipping the crap outta Sonic.

Oh that? I heard she's voicing the new Icons character Ezel or whatever, that tweet was in reference to the character being revealed a few days later. That being said, I'm looking for a confirmation and I'm not finding it so maybe I'm wrong.
Why would she hide THAT if it's already public knowledge that she's going to voice that character in Icons?

The supposedly reveal happening tomorrow, it probably not happening. Nintendo has not made a move yet.

Besides, if we begged them now, it'd be too late anyways.
The game is almost finished.
No way they'd make any changes now.

So do we have a source for the blog theory? Just making sure this isn't another "Bandana Dee has additional Amiibo data" claim.

The Oct 9th leak is pretty much fake at this point, since they would've announced the reveal.

Which one? The Nindies blog theory or the "they're running out of characters to show on the website" blog theory? The former I can verify, as I have been checking the source code of the blog every few days. The latter, I don't know about.
