I'm off to work soon and thought that maybe my day would be fast because of it, but I'll just be anticipating for the Direct for the whole day, so it'll just go slower than usual. Gahh, hours go on faster!

Question time. If you were to choose between a release date being announced or about 2 new characters being announced tomorrow, what would you choose?

Just got done having a Brawl sessions with my friends.

Honestly playing Smash Bros. Brawl just made me more anxious for Smash 4, and more hype for this Direct.

New characters, bar none. I want the release date, sure, but knowing the release date and knowing how far away it is is torture. I mean, think of how it was with Brawl and all the "Here's the release date!....No wait, delayed! Please understand."

I think release dates are better announced on a Direct. Two new characters are better saved up for E3, along with the inevitable Zelda U reveal.

To be perfectly honest I'm hoping for Ridley, Paper Mario or Dixie the most. So far there aren't any newcomers that I'm invested in. I like Animal Crossing, sure,but Megaman, Wii Fit, Punch Out and Mario Galaxy weren't my jams really. Metroid and Donkey Kong, speaking more my language. But give me Ivysaur and I'll be happy. Especially if its PM Ivysaur lol

You speak Metroid? Perhaps you could coax the Metroid that was attacking Smashville to go home?

You know what I hope for besides newcomers and veterans? Getting the air cleared up over Palutena and most especially that Phantom. That is the singular unknown that's really bothering me.

Fortunately, for Japanese / Australian students (that aren't in university yet) it's a perfect time. (holidays)

Videos? I got you


In all honesty however, this direct is the best thing to happen in awhile for me. I don't think something has made me as happy as realizing that there was a Smash Bros EXCLUSIVE DIRECT coming. And this was a day where I participated in sexual activities. But alas, Smash Bros made me more happy. #confessionsofatipsyalax

Here's to tomorrow guys. And whatever happens, we all have eachother.

Whelp, I'm certainly not going to get my hopes up unecessarily high.

But just in case, this feels like a good place for this:

First time I've heard one of these metal covers of the song where the drum beat isn't totally awkward. It's a pretty hard song to transition into metal believe it or not, since it has this super whacky rhythm.

Which plausible info from this Direct do you think would cause the most meltdowns and controversy?

I'd say a Ridley confirmation. Oh, how I'll relish the anger of certain Youtubers and GameFAQS people!! Entertainment for weeks!

In terms of controversy that's an easy one...

If Mii is the only Newcomer revealed in the Direct, I'll be afraid to visit these boards. A huge percentage of the online Smash fan base will probably sink into depression for days after seeing their hopes crushed in such a cruel fashion.

Since everyone else is posting hype music for the game, I figure I may as well do so my self.
