Most Likely..I wonder what will happen to Piranha Plant once the free offer expires. Will it be paid DLC afterwards?

I don't but i don't see him anywhere.OH MY GOD YES! How do you know tho?
No, I get that. But I want also to be able to lock in a ruleset I absolutely do not want -> ex: itemsWould you rather be forced to not play online if nobody is using the same ruleset?
Let's say you want to play "Omega Stages only, No Items, 2 Stock, No Time Limit" and nobody is playing that ruleset right now, so the game matches you to someone who wants to play "Omega Stages only, No Items, 3 Stock, No Time Limit" or "Omega Stages only, No Items, 2 Stock, 2 Minute Time Limit".
How is that a bad thing?
Thing is, sakurai isn't a doctor, or a nurse, or a vet. Being a game dev is in no way similar to those professions. He is not saving lives, he is providing paid entertainment.Sorry, but...
If a Doctor saves your life, will you not show him appreciation?
If a nurse treats you well, do you not show appreciation?
When a vet helps your pet when sick, do you not show appreciation?
We owe appreciation for a job well done. Don't be a prick.
...I had to wait a few hours when this site is usable again, so...
1. Congratulations to Ken and Incineroar (and Piranha Plant???) fans.
2. This is one of the primary reasons I have my motto. My god, what a ****show that whole Grinch fiasco was...
3. I am glad I didn't follow through on that bet on Yoshi's FS being the Mega Eggdozer lol. I like the Stampede well enough, and I was glad that it wasn't just a cinematic Super Dragon. Not that I think it isn't cool, but it would've signaled to me that Sakurai didn't care enough about his source material to look into other avenues...
4. STILL NO YOSHI ASSIST TROPHY!!! GAH!!!
5. Spirits looks like something that will overwhelm me VERY quickly...
6. The Miis have separate slots for each of the 3 classes? Hmm...
7. Probably the most surprising thing I saw was the Ray MKIII costume. I thought that trademark wasn't renewed...
8. I'm not gonna lie, my heart kinda sank when I heard that DLC wasn't gonna feature Echoes...
9. PIRANHA PLANT?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
10. Oh, so there's gonna be demos that feature ALL fighters? Can I finally see my boi in action?!!!
11. Adventure mode looks cool, although the focus on Kirby being the hero AGAIN kinda left a sour taste in my mouth...
Here are my far too long unelicted thoughts on the Direct.
-Vergeben is officially our most credible leaker for ultimate.
-The insiders were right not to trust the banner leak, but did they really have more info than the general public or did they just guess?
-I'd like to hear how the banner was faked, someone really did their homework in order to fabricate it. I was on TeamMaybe but still interested to hear the details.
-What's the deal with Papagenos' source?-Isaac (AT)
-Shadow (AT)
-Black Knight (AT)
-A whole slew of characters we thought had a chance got deconfirmed as Spirits in Spirit mode. Some of the most notable were Shantae & Dixie.
-Rex (Mii Costume)
-Octolings (Mii Costume)
-many more.
(This is not an exhaustive list)-Vergeben was right so we should probably expect SE and Minecraft.
-The way they structured the dlc it appears each character will come with a map and song(s).
-Sakurai said he wasn't talking about echos, so no echo dlc announced/planned (This could always change).
-Steve (Likely) > stage will be the overworld with random creeper spawns hazard > some music from minecraft
-Sora (Likely...GMA reveal?) > Twighlight town? Hollow Bastion? > Lots of music (plz Square!)
-Geno (Notably absent, questionable likelihood) > Forest Maze > Lots of SMRPG music (plz)
-Skull Kid (Notably absent) > Termina Fields? > More Zelda music
-Banjo&Kazooie (questionable likelihood) > idk much about BK > Lots of BK music
-Pyra (maybe) > never play Xenoblade > lots of music?
-Gen 8 Pokemon (doubtful) > new poke stadium? > More poke music
(These are mainly just guesses by me and not exhaustive).-I find it weird they didn't deconfirm Geno (not even a Mii costume), they left the door open for him. I am biased, but I hope this means he is DLC.
-If the choice is between Sora & Geno, the choice is Sora hands down. Much more iconic and reaching with gamers as a whole. I love Geno, but I'd rather Sora get in over Geno.
-A SE rep seems even more likely now since Vergeben was right on basically everything. If there is more than one SE rep then I'd want Sora & Geno. Mallow would be a dark horse hype pick tho.
-I'd love for Skull Kid to get in. It was weird he wasn't deconfirmed either.
-Banjo&Kazooie has great move potential, so I'd be happy for them to make it in. Admittedly, it could be difficult dealing with Msft tho.
-Sakurai announced 5 DLC's (Excluding Petey) and gave it a very soft deadline of a year from release. This is less DLC than Sm4sh got. I hope he'll reconsider adding more characters when the 5 are finished. I hope this game is supported for at least 3 years (balance patches mainly, but more than the already announced 5 would be the cherry on top).
-How will they decide the 5 DLC chars? Or have they already decided? Will there be another ballot?
-Ken & Incineroar are pretty lackluster final reveals IMO (this seems to be the pattern with all final smash character reveals tho).
-Spirits mode seems complex
-Overall, I'm stoked to sink my teeth into this game for countless hours for years to come.
This is what it says on Nintendo's site:I wonder what will happen to Piranha Plant once the free offer expires. Will it be paid DLC afterwards?
I respect your decision good sir or ma'am. How you choose to spend your money is your own choice, and you shouldn't waste it on a game which you personally don't believe will interest you.Im not buying the game
I dont have a switch
Get owned lmfaooooooooooo
Alright, see you online!lol. Nah, I don't think I will. There's nothing in this game to convince me to buy a switch for like 300, smash for 60, and DLC for 30. Even if that DLC ends up including Skull Kid and Geno. I don't care for the revamped stages or the revampd physics since I jjust play this stuff casually. Two newcomers and one echo isn't worth that much money.
I mean, you have a point, but I've seen several people predicting the game is going to underperform.It won't be, but that's not because of some fan-fueled fallout.
Red Dead Redemption 2 and Call of Duty are still things, and if you're arguing the "best selling on Switch," Smash has never even been the top selling game on any previous Nintendo console. There's a very strong possibility it'll be the best selling Smash game ever if it can top Brawl's lifetime of thirteen-and-a-half million. But keep in mind that Super Mario Odyssey has already sold over twelve million in its first year.
Smash Bros will meet and likely exceed expectations, but expectations for Smash will never be "sell better than Pokemon or Mario".
HOLDER YOU NEVER UNDERSTAND ANY OF MY 50 CENT REFERENCES GODI legit almost made that same joke but I was confused as to what exactly you were referring to because if you get Ultimate soonish, you just get the plant anyways. I was like afraid that Isuck, er I mean Isaac not showing up really upset you. I do recall seeing on the front page the title of the support thread was "Get Isaac or die trying" and I was thinking "what is this a cult?" LOL. I joke, but yeah I wish you could have gotten your wish, which was put back in with the likes of Ghirahim.
SO MUCH FOR NOT GETTING MY HOPES UP AGHHHWait Geno IS AN ONLINE ICON. I KNOW IT HAS BEEN SAID BEFORE, BUT I CONFIRMED IT MYSELF
DID SAKURAI HINT US LIKE THAT? I FEEL LIKE GENO WOULD HAVE BEEN A VERY CLEAR SPIRIT IF IT WASN'T THE CASE
I'M STILL DREAMING
And you, as a customer, should exercise that right. No one's obligating you to buy anything, and you should be smart with your money.Then it's also my decision not to financially support the decisions he and his team makes
Don't give me false hope manMan I think Heihachi will be DLC lol. If Akira was in as a AT and Heihachi was not... there's nothing else I can expect.
I'm also fully expecting Geno as DLC and I don't care if he's a spirit. That doesn't mean a thing
I expected more, but it's a massive step up from Smash 4 so whatever.Alright, I'm curious:
What's the general consensus here on World of Light? I had a pretty negative reaction at first, but I'm coming around. Looking at this trailer a second time and paying more attention, I'm starting to think it's gonna be more than just events...
Where did you see this if I may respectfully ask?Wait Geno IS AN ONLINE ICON. I KNOW IT HAS BEEN SAID BEFORE, BUT I CONFIRMED IT MYSELF
DID SAKURAI HINT US LIKE THAT? I FEEL LIKE GENO WOULD HAVE BEEN A VERY CLEAR SPIRIT IF IT WASN'T THE CASE
I'M STILL DREAMING
I added to it after posting. Basically, I feel like he went above and beyond everyone's expectations by working to get every veteran back; by striving to really cater to fans with people like K Rool and Ridley. He owed us nothing; he didnt have to listen to crap; its his game. But he did. He made a poll and put some of the most highly requested characters in and gave us back a lot of veterans that we were requesting when he didnt have to; its Smash Brothers; it would have sold regardless. For that reason, he deserves some accolades.Thing is, sakurai isn't a doctor, or a nurse, or a vet. Being a game dev is in no way similar to those professions. He is not saving lives, he is providing paid entertainment.
Doctors are needed for survival, sakurai, and smash is not.
Skull Kid is confirmed an assist trophy, and Pyra and a Gen 8 Pokemon don't make the cutoff for DLC Season 1.Here are my far too long unelicted thoughts on the Direct.

Maybe we should be grateful for the fact that he brought back every character and added two of the most highly requested characters?Again, what do we have to be grateful for?
Do you expect customers to be grateful for what you do at your job, if you're working a job that has customers?
No, they are paying for the service. Its his job to make video games.
Stop treating sakurai like some god, if he wasn't making bank he'd **** off if its so hard. We owe nothing to this man.
Does any character in the Smash roster have a token shown from they're past artwork from other games?Geno isn't a Spirit, and even if he was, he'd still be in the running anyway because they're essentially trophies.
Geno is a token for Battle Arena, so yes he is not disconfirmed:
https://youtu.be/fccgHnBQ0YM?t=1255
The official FB post said "the last Smash Direct before release" #DealWithIt #IncineroarIsHereAlso, can people please stop with the whole "We always get unexpected characters" argument? That doesn't work here. Not only was this game hyped as being pure fanservice, with all veterans returning due to high demand, but the ballot being looked to for newcomers as admitted by Sakurai with characters like K Rool, Ridley, and Simon. Even Isabelle might apply here. Then you have characters like Geno where Sakurai admits he wants him, and ATs like Shadow and SK being hidden all these months, while "coincidentally" having Knuckles and the moon revealed. And you expect people not feel bad about all this?
Can't believe the day would EVER come where I'd hate a character more than Corrinr. Like lol between Shadow and Skull kid being hidden all these months, and a enemy character being it's own unique fighter, I have never felt this off put by smash in my life.
Questions: Besides Vergeben, why did all these insiders come out with info after the grinch leak after doing nothing for the longest time?
What exactly does "yeet" mean? I think I have an idea through the few examples of context I have, but I'm still a little out-of-touch I guess.I love how Capt Falcon just got yeeted from his ship by the light
Again, what do we have to be grateful for?
Do you expect customers to be grateful for what you do at your job, if you're working a job that has customers?
No, they are paying for the service. Its his job to make video games.
Stop treating sakurai like some god, if he wasn't making bank he'd **** off if its so hard. We owe nothing to this man.
Though my opinion on Incineroar isn't necessarily perfect, it would skyrocket if it ends up having a German Suplex. That'd be all kinds of hilarious and awesome.
And no one is obligating you to chime in and police people's opinions. Adios!And you, as a customer, should exercise that right. No one's obligating you to buy anything, and you should be smart with your money.
But no one's obligating you to come on here and ***** either.
