Do you guys think the Tetris Spirits could be an hint at Arle being DLC fighter 5 given they're the two most iconic puzzle games?

Won't surprise me if datamining is done and we get insider on it.

The "dynamic" weather video GameXplain uploaded from the Sword and Shield presskit is super misleading. It claims it has dynamic weather but the video never once shows the weather changing, just hard cutting to different areas with different static weather.

Very disappointing clickbait.

No.

Getting new Tetris content in Smash is a rare occasion. I can't see Sakurai doing it just for giving an extremely indirect hint for a less popular series.

No

I don't really think Sakurai does obscure hints like that

It's likely just to recognise Tetris 99's success, that's all

Not trying to be rude, but what does Arle have anything to do with Tetris?

Oh wait, she's from that one weird Tetris spin-off game.


AHEM... on-topic, nah. Sakurai doesn't really do that.

We didn't find files for Banjo or Terry as they realized they ****ed up, what makes you think they'll **** up on datamining again?

Funny how speculation has been turning out.

We've gone from Tracer to Hayabusa to Crash until going back to square one to now discussion between Arle and KOS-MOS.

The ride never ends

Definitely not.

They are two different series from two different companies.

Given how spot-on this anonymous leaker has been with his/her predictions. I'm gonna join in on the train on KOS-MOS being DLC fighter 5 until further notice from Vergeben.
no matter how many times I’m gonna repeat this, its likely someone impersonating the one who leaked the codenames. All of them are anoyumous. Just because they have the same picture of a cat doesn't mean they’re the same person.

None of the other random spirit additions foreshadowed a new character. It's not like the Daemon x Machina spirits mean that we're getting a Xenoblade Chronicles X character as DLC, the Pokemon Let's Go spirits mean that we're getting a Pokemon from Sword and Shield as DLC, etc. I'm not sure why this would be any different.

We’re getting close to November and terry and we have nothing for who challenger pack 5 is most characters we’ve known have either been-
Game delayed-doom
Confirmed not 5-ryu,crash
Leaker dead-reimu
And fake 4 Chan leaks-kos-mos(I really don’t see xenosaga getting in before tales tekken or digimon)
So 5 is a complete mystery until verge says somthing
To me I feel 5 is someone unexpected and not mentioned in leaks like Leon or Lloyd or even a new company. So I’m gonna expect one that’s not been leaked.

What if you wanted to see Zacian and Zamazenta typings...
But Game Freak said
There was a problem fetching the tweet
After reading a theory about the wolves on on Bulbapedia, I'm starting to think them hiding their typings is a directional decision. Ohmura did say that he wanted the Legendaries to feel like fleeting rumors where NPCs in the game will say things like 'I saw that that cyan creature', and so far they've had the least revealed about them then almost any other Cover Legendary before them in pre-release. It seems like they're intentionally trying to build up a mystique about them, so that players can get curious about them and then seek them out to discover what they're hiding.

Also:

It is stated by reviewers that during their first 90 minutes with the game they encountered one of the wolves briefly at the beginning of the game without their ornaments. It would certainly fit that angle since they would be the Cover Legendaries with the earliest debut in the story (ignoring Cosmog, who's a pre-evo), and they could use that initial encounter to start to build up interest in them that grows as you encounter them multiple times across the story.

Michael the Spikester Michael the Spikester remember my Kratos and Atreus moveset? I’m thinking about making it into a video. And I need help. The one thing I’m not really sure of is the victory theme. What do you think it should be?

The odds are in favor of a Namco character. If true I will finally be vindicated.

Doom Eternal being delayed shouldn't affect Doomguy's chances if negotiations were already in place prior to it being pushed back.

Not saying that he's likely to be fighter #5 at this point, but still.

Yeah. The deal would be set regardless.

I still think it’s possible it could be him. To me it all depends on how and when they reveal him. Doom is big, and big in America. So it makes sense to reveal him at a big American event (like the game awards). But if they just reveal whoever it is in Terry’s presentation then no, probably not him.

Hey everyone, I'm back from the test. It was mainly about a series of questions relating to usual stuff like science, math, and other subjects.

So, anything new happened?

Oh yeah. Sakurai came buy and showed us all fighter 5. But he made us sign an nda so we can’t tell you who.
Fighter #5 is Geno.

...

A Mii costume of Geno, to be exact. You're welcome.
