Hmm... If there is no other character announcements in this presentation, what could they possibly say in something 20 minutes longer than the last character presentation?

Anywho, looks like we might have to wait for the Game Awards for the next fighter.

Even more than Hero though?
Nah. But there's enough to go into detail for a while. Not to mention potential EX versions. Terry's got:

Power Wave(mainstay)
Burn Knuckle(mainstay)
Crack Shoot(mainstay)
Rising Tackle(ALMOST mainstay)
Power Dunk(in a lot of stuff)
Fire Kick
Quick Burn(a Double Fire Punch)
Round Wave
Power Charge
His C+D Kick

There's a few others I'm probably missing though.

Lmao well yeah if it's really true then that is very disappointing. The rate at which new characters were being announced would suggest 5 being revealed with Terry's presentation. Perhaps we'll get something in the January Direct then.

What are they going to do for 45 minutes, if there aren't any new characters and no new modes? I can't see Sakurai talking about Terry taking any longer than it did for Hero, and that was half as long.

and Mega Construx has the license to Pokémon too
I wonder why LEGO has never been able to get a license for anything Nintendo related? Clearly they’ve been in contact before, given the Mario things in LEGO City Undercover, but yeah. Maybe LEGO charges too much or something, or there’s too much upstart costs (molds for new LEGO parts tend to cost a lot more than those for other brands since they’re machined much more precisely.)

My guess is taking modes and updating then more. As well as maybe a lot more spirits. World of Light could certain use more stuff. Areas for each Fighter's Pass character. I'd love a Target option for Stage Builder(I doubt this). Tournament Mode changes. Online option changes? Going over the actual patch notes?

Master Hand playable in Century Smash would be a great thing to say. But it's technically an unannounced fighter, so...

I am not buying it. There is nothing else they could show for that time. They’re done with modes.

Get ready for 20 minutes of Sakurai walking around his home and vlogging

Not to get all "conspiracy" on you, but remember when Sakurai said "Fighter" for E3? Then we got Hero AND Banjo?

I don't think we'll get information on the next fighter, but I think there's a chance it ends with the reveal of the fighter, if that makes sense.

Anyway, we'll get some disconfirmations.

Imagine having the longest Smash presentation ever and not revealing new characters.

Really curious as to what Sakurai is going to show then.

I'm pretty sure they said "we're probably done adding new modes". So Mode information isn't impossible. But updates might happen instead of new modes too. No way to know till the next two days. I wouldn't completely rule out anything but a playable fighter beyond Terry.

But Jones brings up a good point. Depends how you define information in this case. It's been proven that announcements of this caliber uses weasel words.

I'm still suspicious.

But I don't know if I want to risk losing sleep over a big ol' heap of nothing.

You know, this technically doesn’t say they couldn’t reveal a bunch more stages or something. They are gonna have to expand the stage select screen somehow for the post-pass characters anyway, unless none of them have stages or something.

I’ve always thought that the lack of new “Sakurai pick” stages was one of the more disappointing parts of Ultimate. It was always fun seeing how they’d make stages out of things like OS features and heavily casual focused games...

edit: I still don’t think that’d fill 45 minutes, but yeah.

Legit I am no longer excited for this direct at this point.
I'll miss it anyway, it will just showcase stuff I can learn playing the game later that day, and it just seems like a waste of time.

I'm not disappointed, I just don't see how it would take 45 min to talk about Terry.
Same here. Assuming every single move takes 2 minutes to cover, that's still only around 30-ish minutes. So, something big is coming. but what, exactly?

Yeah, we've yet to experience another leak that had similar effects to the Grinch Leak, nor one that has lasted quite as long as the Grinch.

And for the sake of the fanbase, I sincerely hope we never do.
