you have pikachu as normal...

 

[Gyrom8]

Verge said Isaac is an assist? Ooof, a lot of people are gonna be mad if that’s true.

It'll be even worse if Geno and Banjo get in.
'EVERYONE IS HERE! ... Except you, Isaac.'

 

[Jumpinjahosafa]

I have nothing to be dissapointed about

Snake is back

Ryu got buffed

Ganon got super buffed

Young Link is back

Any other newcomers are icing on the cake, doesn't matter if the leak is real of fake to me

 

[SushiRoll]

People seem to have stopped discussing the Grinch leak entirely, was it proven to be false? Or is it just a moot point now that the direct is so close? Just making sure I didn't miss anything major.

Errbody came out of the woodwork and said "it's false, trust me, I'm a doctor."

 

[Tiltedssb]

I just want the direct to open up with sakurai saying, "buckle up *******"

 

[CrunchyCHEEZIT]

gotta be real, it'll be hard to convince me that the final newcomers won't be garbage if all the insiders are scrambling to claim that Geno and Banjo just flat out aren't in/are ATs and Isaac is an AT. at least I have... Richter, I guess.

And the UK Nintendo Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEG4fd9DERXPzziMo3WgYMA
And Japanese Nintendo: https://www.youtube.com/user/NintendoJPofficial

Here's the link to the US Direct: https://www.nintendo.com/nintendo-direct/11-01-2018/

Here's the link to the JP Direct: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQuFh_zgdsg

Enjoy.

EDIT: Why did I post all three, you might ask? For a very simple reason: The US Direct has Sakurai dubbed over, the UK Direct has Sakurai subtitled, and the JP Direct is the original Japanese footage with no translations.

Thanks! That's crazy that they already have this video up and ready to go for tomorrow

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

Ok so let me get this right, insiders want me to believe there's "no big third party announcements tomorrow"
But at the same time they want me to believe we are getting Ken, from the biggest fighting game franchise, also Shadow from Sonic, an arguably huge franchise, a Square Enix new character, which would be huge, and also Minecraft content, which would also be huge.
Adds up pretty well

These people backpedal so hard and fast that they shouldn't even be leaking, but qualify for the Tour of France.

 

[ErenJager]

It'll be even worse if Geno and Banjo get in.
'EVERYONE IS HERE! ... Except you, Isaac.'

Meh most ppl wouldnt even care for isaac if he wasnt in brawl.
Sakurai removed him after brawl for a reason.
Probably never to return, if he did probably as an assist.

 

[Jovahexeon Joranvexeon]

Breath in

Mystic...you seems like an honest dude.
You give me hope for Isaac(Vlad here in France)

But A BETTER ROSTER THAN THE LEAK? HOW?!

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Huh? Where'd the tweet go?

Pikachu normal?

 

[KMDP]

Doubtful sakurai would do that tbh

He's been putting fan favorites in

"The Grinch leak is too good to be true, why would they put all these fan favourites in?"

*clears throat*

That is literally all they've been doing this game.

I haven't played all of the games, so I'm not sure what the right typing for Cloud would be, just went off of his design.

Feel Dark Samus would be better as dark/poison. I guess G&W would also be dark in the lore of Smash, with him being made of shadowbugs.

 

[Nekoo]

Later as in? I thought the general consensus was this is the final blowout (I personally don't consider that to be the case, especially in my predictions, as I believe there's a rumored Nintendo Direct also). Or is that a reference to DLC?

Probably reference to DLC.

 

[Kuon]

gotta be real, it'll be hard to convince me that the final newcomers won't be garbage if all the insiders are scrambling to claim that Geno and Banjo just flat out aren't in/are ATs and Isaac is an AT. at least I have... Richter, I guess.

What do you mean? That last part about Richter confused me

 

[mynameisBlade]

Imo. Dante would be really lackluster for me.. The best playable version of Dante already exists in MvC3... Please Sakurai, give us a character that has never been in a fighting game before..instead of rehashing something that has already been done...

I dont include Ryu in this due to him being the main fighting character of all time. Obvious pick, but Dante?... There are many other characters that have a **** ton more support and have been wanted much more.

 

[Sehnsucht]

Merry Samhain to all the tots and tykes.

When you raise your bonfires tonight, consider doing so in the name of Smash, that you might reap good harvest tomorrow.

Careful of your wording, bud...
People really like Dante here

 

[Smashoperatingbuddy123]

Hoping for the best tomorrow

If real looking at everyone on the forums hype comments

If fake hitting the eject button to dodge the flame war and huge negativity
(Unless its nearly as good of a final roster)

 

[KMDP]

Got my bingo card ready for tomorrow

Spoiler

Ah, I see you're using one of my Bingo cards.

Nice.

 

[Deleted member]

If we get 7 newcomers revealed, the character section on the website will look weird, with one empty slot.

I feel like a DLC reveal would make up for that if Grinch is real.

I mean, now that Namco executives have come out and said they purposely feed people false info, the whole "insiders" scene is now inherently untrustworthy.

Tend to agree as Dante would be another 'how to cram his crazy fighting style into Smash' type fighter, in the vein of Bayonetta. I'd prefer something purely creative., like the bike-heavy mach rider or beam swapping Samus

A newcomer to the fighting genre... Like Crash Bandicoot or Spyro?

I know that it's offtopic, but has anyone heard of Undertale 2? It seems like that game is trending today, so it's possible that an Undertale music could be in the game. However, it has a very major flaw you may not know. Check the Social thread for more details.

 

[KMDP]

Merry Samhain to all the tots and tykes.

When you raise your bonfires tonight, consider doing so in the name of Smash, that you might reap good harvest tomorrow.

Everyone, create four large bonfires in the Shape of the Smash Logo in the hopes of your most wanted getting in!

Be sure to do the Dededance while doing so.

 

[thespoiler]

Every insider is claiming it’s fake because..... They’re trying to cast doubt about the leak in order to surprise us. Still team real.

I didn't know that the UK Version is subbed instead of dubbed. I'm currently learning Japanese at the moment and I've been trying to watch stuff in Japanese with subs so I can still understand whats going on. Thanks for posting this friend!

You mean the game that has a download page that explicitly asks people not to talk about it? Is that the one you're talking about?

 

[TeamFlareZakk]

This is the final form of my predictions:

69: Isaac
70: Mach Rider
38e: Shadow
60e: Ken
71: Chorus Kids
72: Skull Kid
73: KOS-MOS
74: Banjo
75: Geno

Grinch leak is for real and here are some dlc predictions: 76: Incineroar, 54e: Medusa, 36e: Dixie, 77: Sora, 78: Bandana Dee and probably a few more going up to like over 80 or something.. Im going off a guess that some such as Incineroar were saved later for dlc so the game can launch at release without a delay and some 3rd parties such as Square and Microsoft would totally want to try to add other characters in as dlc.. Could we really actually see Master Freaken Chief in Super Smash Bros?

 

[Mellowy Yellow]

Will Sakurai start the direct by reading a 10 minute long poem as to why Gamers will start a revolution?

 

[Michele]

Um, that's not it. I'm talking about the uninstaller deleting your folder. https://smashboards.com/threads/nin...direct-edition.452577/page-2999#post-22635327

It's a spin-off, actually.

I mean, now that Namco executives have come out and said they purposely feed people false info, the whole "insiders" scene is now inherently untrustworthy.

Which, by proxy, makes Vegebeans even more unreliable than expected.
