It’s surprisingly easy to say any character from one of the franchises already in Smash is already somehow super popular.
People love Adeleine and Porky, imo.

The former is in fact one of my three most wanted first party picks.

I'm glad you had a good day yesterday! Life's just been pretty damn great in general for me lately tbh. :3
I can’t even describe how much I am glad to hear that.

Hopefully things keep going that way!

Chances are none of the chosen characters are Spirits already, but we'll have to wait and see who the rest of the DLC is first.

Adeline is really popular though

Remember how angry some people got before she was confirmed to be a dream friend in star allies?

Here's a thought. Do you think they'll add more Pokeball Pokemon in a Novmber update?
They seem to be very lazy regarding Poke Ball Pokemon this time-keeping all the Smash 4 ones regardless of factors like Fennekin no longer being the new fire starter and Vulpix being added and similar, they didn't get the new AT mechanics, and there are now more ATs than PBP.

In other words I doubt it.

I think people forget that characters are popular within fanbases. A character doesn't have to be a mainstream superstar to have a dedicated following.

So here's a ****ing weird coincidence.


Glitch theory.


'Member back when the game came out how Bowser Jr., Mii Sword and Duck Hunt broke certain modes?


Only to later realize Bowser Jr. was used as a basis for Plant?


Well, Mii Sword has basically nothing on Joker.


And who have we been talking about that would fit the two of them?


Like, I always thought that the idea of Duck Hunt as a base for Banjo Kazooie to be ****ing stupid but....


We're staring down a barrel of a gun called Erdrick+Banjo right now.
i think it's an interesting coincidence, given the likelihood of banjo/erdrick, but i also don't see why the base characters avaliable to the players should break anything

if they've copied them over to new characters, it should be the new dev-only characters causing the glitches, not the original characters - there's no reason why the original characters should have been changed or altered at all in the process of copying them

You'd think that'd be pretty clear by now. When characters like Geno get mentioned by Sakurai of all people in part of his follwoing, and I'd argue that even Richter Belmont is more well known than the former. Granted, being known by the Average Joe doesn't hurt much.

You can tell he enjoys it.

Hey y'all. I'm still recovering from the possibility that Banjo is coming home. I was so hyped last night I forgot there was Persona 5R stuff going on. Gonna give that a look real quick.

That reminds me, you know those thin Oreos? I found the best use for them is to crush them up with ice cream. They give a better crunch to crumble ratio over the normal ones.

It's on Tuesday.

Here's a countdown link to the exact time.

I think the clincher for this leak isn’t going to be during Nintendo’s Direct, but Microsoft’s presentation.

If they announce that a Banjo Collection, or Banjo sequel is getting a release also on Switch, I think it’s sealed.

Sakurai himself allegedly said he didn’t pick the characters for the pass in his latest writing. While i’ve always thought he had at least some option, it would make sense if, at some point during collaboration, the revival of Banjo was brought up and then plans were made to include Banjo.

I don’t buy that Smash collaboration was on the table from the start. But the Banjo revival and putting him in Smash, if this ends up being real, makes a lot of sense.

What’s going to be interesting is hearing what Sakurai would say about Banjo in his column.

EDIT: I do want to reiterate that i’m not 100% believing it yet, as we don’t know who Verg got the Banjo information from. But it gets harder with each new person saying they’ve heard the same.

I just don’t want to get burned after getting emotionally hyped.

Ok, I promise that this is the last media I share today.

But I want to say that the fact this exists brings me life:

I think this will be the first time in history where I watch Microsoft's E3 press conference.

He said he got it from his most trusted source. Link

"I heard today that regarding Banjo & Kazooie being one of the fighters pass characters they are "DLC. But not 100%. 99%." for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
That came from my most proven & main source"

Well Ubisoft was the one to announce both Kingdom Battle and Starlkink but unless Nintendo worked something out to get Rare's DK games in Rare Replay 2 or getting Diddy Kong to Cameo in Banjo Threeie or something like that I think we'll be waiting for the Nintendo Direct, if there is anything at all.

I’m well aware, but my point is we still don’t know exactly who that is.

I’ve believed much of what his most trusted source has said before, so I have no doubt that he believes it, because at the very least his source believes it.

Just with everything and everyone coming out about it, I can only imagine who his source actually is, because a ton of people knew about it before him.

pfffff why do people think that Microsoft is going to announce anything Nintendo related
The only Nintendo related announcement they might make is if anything form their publishers and studios will be on Switch.

Doesn’t mean they’ll announce Smash stuff. It’s not crazy to think, “Coming soon, we have the Banjo collection which will launch for Xbox One...and Nintendo Switch!”

It could totally work.

So Eurogamer just seems to be straight up saying Witcher 3 is coming to Switch now.

Also some other site apparently leaked all the Google Stadia details.

Everybody just said **** Embargoes today.

Also, with things looking like we might be getting 2 characters at E3 and one of them often being discussed as being shown at Microsoft's conference, I saw a really good dream big post. It was that Microsoft, Bethesda, Square and Nintendo's presentations would each show a newcomer.

Like, that's not going to happen but in the crazy timeline it did, Nintendo wouldn't have won E3, they ****ing owned E3.

I mean. Especially because Bethesda isn’t getting a character. It would feel a little weird for them to show of Crash or Artorias. Like, why are you doing that?

But, I am not dismissing the possibility of us getting reveals for all 4. I mean, everyone’s expecting 2, and Nintendo never does what you expect.
