Holy crap this gif.

Hopefully Nintendo has better aim.

sakurai seems to be emphasising just one fighter
I want to say he could be lying to build up suspense. But this man has never done that as far as I know.

I gotta say, just one Fighter is kind of.... meh. Like doing two makes it fine if they’re not super cool or exciting because hey you got two. But with only one... I don’t know. Just doesn’t feel right.

Plus like, when are they going to be able to announce the other 3? We’ve got the September direct, then the janurary or February one (I don’t think they’re gonna do Smash at the VGA’s twice in a row). At some point they’re going to have to reveal two.

To be clear. I don’t think we’ll get a breakdown for both fighters. Or that both will release today or even soon. (Actually of one was gonna drop today we’d probably have gotten an incoming update warning already). I think one will be fully broken down and the other will just be a Joker/Mewtwo style reveal. Maybe even a trailer but I wouldn’t bet on it. I’m still saying Banjo and Erdrick. Not because of leaks. Not because of promotions. Not because of anything but the fact that when I think like a game designer, weigh what I know of the communities interests as well as the interests of potential corporate overlords, that’s what makes the most sense.

Either way, after today, we’ll get our second data point so we’ll be better able to make predictions.

I swear to God, if Atlus doesn't show any SMTV news, I am straight up just dropping this profile pic.

Playing devil's advocate:

  1. Of course he wont spoil two fighters being revealed
  2. If it's best to watch live and not spoil yourself, that could mean two fighters. If you just don't watch the direct and check the website, two fighters being revealed wont be as impactful as watching the direct and seeing it unfold.
I'm on the one-fighter train, though. Hopefully we get two

So while I'm here, might as well try and do that game Venus of the Desert Bloom Venus of the Desert Bloom suggested do a few weeks ago. For reference:
Ok guys, let’s say you could add an entirely new series to Smash along with a represented character. The following are what you can add:
  1. A character
  2. A stage
  3. Twelve musical tracks
  4. 8-12 Spirits
  5. A trailer for the character
    Be as descriptive as you want. I’ll put mine up later this evening.
So I decided I will do this with the character on the far right of my signature, Edward Richtofen. I'll do this in my next post.

“It’s best to watch this live and go in unspoiled”

Holy **** is it not Erdrick or even banjo?
Have both been wrong? The formers been spoiled to hell and back and no doubt Sakurai knows this.

not impossible he's hiding something

however, i feel every time we expect more than sakurai explicitly promises, we get burned

Yeah, hoping to see N. Brio and Koala Kong. Post Naughty Dog characters, I'd also love to see Nina and Evil Crash.

There's approximately a 0% chance he's referencing the leaks. As far as Nintendo is publicly concerned, they didn't happen.

YOOOOOO

They really are going above and beyond. I swear we might get just about every named Crash character by this point.
Best part is that they're not just different costumes: they're all their own unique racers.

Mario Kart saw that announcement and they're gonna turn full into Smash cart.

''Banjo is here! Sonic is here! Captain Falcon is here! EVERYONE IS HERE in Mario Kart!"
