To be fair, the Grinch Leak definitley overloaded people's expectations...

BTW, did Japan pay any attention to the Grinch leak or Vergeben?

Including mine...

Considering how decently requested they all were in Japan, I wonder how Japanese fans felt when Isaac/Banjo/Geno/whoever didn’t get in.

 

[Arymle Roseanne]

Yes, yes, I know, the last part was a joke, but to be honest the Daisies appearing made me laugh of joy.

I mean, Peaches are edible, since that's tecnically part of a...fruit, but the Daisies are considered flowers, and so they aren't edible at all.

It's a video game so it's doesn't matter if flowers aren't edible.

What do you suggest they replaced the peaches with then, sunflower seeds?

I'm not sure what food would fit Daisy's flower theme, it's not even known on what's her trademark favorite food.

 

[Jedisupersonic]

So this is a new thing.

 

[Paperchampion23]

I highly doubt that all of the DLC for this game will be leaked. There will probably still be a few surprises in store. Here's what hasn't been leaked the past 2 games:

• Rosalina
• Greninja (to an extent)
• Robin and Lucina
• Cloud
• Corrin and Bayonetta
• K. Rool
• Every new echo fighter except Ken
• Piranha Plant

What I'm hoping is that Nintendo learned from the Roy/Ryu datamine fiasco and will better hide upcoming DLC fighters within the game's code.

If Pokemon is any evidence on preventing leaks via a demo or future content, they may not lol.

We have to remember that the box theory actually was right lol. They literally took out the 2 unknown characters in the base and still put out the box for advertising. Nintendo actually did that lol.

 

[beans]

What if Sakurai just trolls everyone and Max Caulfield from Life Is Strange is the Square rep. The game is published by Square.

She is introduced with Cloud, to make you thinks it another FF character, but it was actually FINAL FANTASY THE SPIRITS WITHIN, a Max's favorite film.
Truly the best timeline.

 

[Deleted member]

The Square rep can’t be Hitman anymore.

 

[Captain Shwampy]

Hmmm so Jon from Gameplain is predicting that Geno will be the first DLC character...

Jon also predicted shadow would be a semi clone

Thanks jon

 

[Kuon]

The Smash fan base can't be too bad, because you're apart of it.

Aww stop it

 

[Nekoo]

Hmmm so Jon from Gameplain is predicting that Geno will be the first DLC character...

Actually after the direct he posted this wishlist/Prediction for DLC aaaand...

If we're being realistic then MAAAAAAAAAAYBE cut one of the Fire Emblem reps for Pokemon Gen 8 (or cut Geno is we're being even more realistic)

[Iridium]

Ok, so I've learnt something very FUNNY that made me laugh joy!

https://imgtc.com/i/hUte4D2.gif

Apparently, Daisy's FS is same as Peach. The thing that made me laugh were the Daisies, which made me laugh SO hard. Is Daisies even edible?!

Yeah, but has anyone else noticed the vacuum effect it has? Like, it pulling airborne opponents to the ground into a forced sleep? I've seen it happen multiple times...

 

[Deleted member]

Aww stop it

It also has me...

I don’t even know if that is good or bad.

 

[The_Naraotor]

If EA somehow gets a character, the only one that I feel would have even the slightest chance would be Commander Shepard and they are probably the only EA character who wouldn't get such a negative reception, especially if Shepard has alot from the original Mass Effect. Sure, there will be some people ticked by the thought of EA in Smash in general, but considering how popular the original Mass Effect is, I'm pretty sure Shepard's reception would be more positive than negative.

For me list of possible games that can rep EA we have:

• Alone in the Dark
• Alice: Madness Returns
• Black & White
• Command & Conquer
• Crysis
• Dead Space
• Dragon Age
• Dungeon Keeper
• Mass Effect
• Mirror's Edge
• Plants vs. Zombies
• Populous
• Road Rash
• The Sims
• Titanfall
• Ultima

I think they a lot of potential though I know given their reccent behavior they don't seems to be worth having a rep for Smash.

 

[Paperchampion23]

Hmmm so Jon from Gameplain is predicting that Geno will be the first DLC character...

I personally wouldn't mind. I'd be happy with him, Sora or Chrono in the end.

 

[Wyoming]

I think people suspecting or even expecting a second season for Smash DLC are fooling themselves.

Prove me wrong, because hey...I want to believe, gang.

The first season was said to last till February 2020. We'll see how Sakurai and co feel about extra work around that time.

It's a wait and see game, but expect only five newcomers to be safe.

 

[Dyllybirdy]

It also has me...

I don’t even know if that is good or bad.

The latter, duh...

Why haven't they given up on the idea of L block? lol I don't trust their predictions at all

Alone In The Dark is owned by EA?

Did they make the last game in the franchise?

He still does believe Geno has a significant enough chance to warrant him there though.
No one should trust his predictions as any more than predictions however.

 

[Nekoo]

L Block is a meme in their community / resetERA for a long while now- lmao

It is wait and see but I see far too many saying "actually a season 2 is Highly Plausible"

 

[Kuon]

L Block is a meme in their community / resetERA for a long while now- lmao

I mean, Sakurai can put in whoever he wants, but we know that nobody would pay for a Tetris block. They have to draw the line somewhere. lol

 

[beans]

Thats dumb, T or S (with a Z echo fighter) would be the best pieces.

 

[KingofKoopas]

Somehow that does not surprise me considering where Tetris came from..

 

[Nekoo]

but we know that nobody would pay for a Tetris block.

If it comes with a stages and Music?

****ing sign me up.

 

[DMTN]

While I'm personally hoping for Geno, I wouldn't be surprised if Sephiroth ends up being the SE character. All FF content in Ultimate is based on FF VII after all.

 

[Luigi The President]

I mean, Sakurai can put in whoever he wants, but we know that nobody would pay for a Tetris block. They have to draw the line somewhere. lol

Yeah, and NO one is gonna pay for a ****in Piranha Plant! That's absurd!

See my point? They don't care!

 

[The_Naraotor]

Alone In The Dark is owned by EA?

Oops my mistake Alone in the Dark is owned now by THQ Nordic.

 

[Kuon]

If it comes with a stages and Music?

****ing sign me up.

I'll pass. There's a reason why Piranha Plant, the wtf character, is free for a time

 

[Deleted member]

Thank god.

So much hate no love for I Block, the MVP of Tetris

It's cause he totally understands that Geno has been cursed by obscurity and being a low priority 3rd party character lol.

Seriously, Geno would be hype. His moveset could be hype. I'll be pleasantly surprised if he's the SE DLC character, but I'm not betting on him over quite a few other characters from that company.

I'd love it if by the time they start to reveal the DLC characters, Geno is a bonus 6th one, or something. It's also possible there is a 2nd season of characters, but who knows at this point

 

[Kuon]

Yeah, and NO one is gonna pay for a ****in Piranha Plant! That's absurd!

See my point? They don't care!

Still, I will not believe a Tetris block will be playable unless either A. Vergeben says it or B. They reveal it as a fighter

 

[Nekoo]

Still, I will not believe a Tetris block will be playable unless either A. Vergeben says it or B. They reveal it as a fighter

Or C. You realize it was a Joke

 

[Deleted member]

Oh yeah.

They are making a sci-fi movie trilogy for Tetris.
They wanted to make just one movie first, but apparently “the story was too complex for a single one”.

Seriously, look it up, i’m not kidding.

 

[Luigi The President]

I'll pass. There's a reason why Piranha Plant, the wtf character, is free for a time

And can you explain to me why they're still gonna be paid for, afterwards
After, let me emphasize, 2 months out of the games potentially 2+ year long lifecycle

Still, I will not believe a Tetris block will be playable unless either A. Vergeben says it or B. They reveal it as a fighter

And you shouldn't. I was only criticizing your argument.

 

[Kuon]

Or C. You realize it was a Joke

They predicted Tetris block in one of their videos recently before the direct, and it didn't seem like they were joking

 

[beans]

The tetrimino we need but not the one we deserve

I still don't get it, buuut they made a movie out of battleship.. And it was stupid too.

crysis rep but the switch can't run it

Speaking of A's and B's, and Tetris:

Spoiler

Unpopular opinion here, but I think that the Tetris Type B. theme, is better than Type A.'s.
