Okay if we aren’t getting a new music track tomorrow, it’s likely one for a new series represented in Smash put up directly after the Direct. So let’s hope we aren’t getting a new music track tomorrow!

Huh. Rosalina breaks the pattern of music, possibly in an attempt to avoid another Bloody Tears situation. Down to the final 12 characters to be revealed, plus any that get revealed on Thursday.

With Rosalina now covered, this is now who's left to be covered (not counting any unannounced newcomers):

:ultyoshi:
:ultzelda::ultmewtwo::ultroy::ultgnw:
:ultmetaknight::ultdiddy::ultlucas::ultolimar:
:ultlittlemac::ultrobin::ultbayonetta:

Also, assuming that there are no weeks where 2 fighters are covered, the max amount of unannounced newcomers we can have without having to have weeks where 4 fighters are covered is 4.

The info today on Rosa mentions that Luma panics when Rosa gets hit, so it's not just grabbing Rosa either. This info and nerf towards her does make me happy, though I would want to know if a big hit means a longer Luma panic or not. Whatever it is, this change alone pleases me. Maybe now I'll be brave enough to battle her again because of this.

Let's just hope nothing is accidently shown off on the 31st (There's still a possibility something could come up on the 31st under everyone's nose)!

Finally they included Ditto. He was already in Melee (although not accessible by normal means) suggesting that they already tried to include him properly way back then but failed. Did they really need 4 iterations of the game to get Ditto right?

In Pokemon TCG for the Gameboy they also replaced the Ditto card with a Gameboy exclusive one possibly because the real Ditto card was too difficult to implement. I guess Ditto is really hard to implement in games.

To be covered:
:ultyoshi:
:ultzelda::ultmewtwo::ultroy::ultgnw:
:ultmetaknight::ultdiddy::ultlucas::ultolimar:
:ultlittlemac::ultrobin::ultbayonetta:
:ultken::ultpiranha:

I expect them to wait with covering Piranha Plant on the blog until after the game releases. Ken will likely be monday's update.

#SakuraiShouldScrapThatPieceOf****ePlantAndGiveThatSecondSquareEnixCharacterVergebenTalkedAbout

WHO ELSE IS WITH ME ON THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!
Any other fans who wrongly assume scrapping one character will net them another that they want.

So, unfortunately many people.

Or they just need to scrap said that stupid plant and have it just be an enemy you fight in the new story mode!!!!!

Or just scrap it all together and give us some worthy DLC that's actually worth 10 or 20 dollars of our hard earned cash!!!!!!!!!!!

You do know that like every other DLC thing in existence that's free the first day!

They'll eventually stop making it a free update and make it to where you to purchase it with actual cash!!!!!

Second! I think the Smash Bros players who aren't on drugs or who don't want this stupid plant or other terrible things we saw in the last direct!!!!!

Should either start rioting at NOA offices until they decide to scrap the pointless plant or should just not buy a single copy of Smash Ultimate!

To all of you who are upset with Nintendo about the horrendous additions to Smash Bros Ultimate!

Please do everyone the sober individuals a favor and don't buy a single copy of Smash Ultimate!

Just to show Sakuria that we mean buissness!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Moving back to the usual, Ken is today's update, as previously expected.

Part of me hopes we could be getting Street Fighter music this week (no bias at all, nope I definitely don't say this because we need Guile's theme or anything)

I'd rather have a Zangief remix. Red Cyclone for life. ;)

(A Street Fighter 3 remix would be even better, like Alex or Ibuki. It looks like we might only be getting Street Fighter 2 representation in Smash though. :( )

They keep referencing the Capcom Vs. games - Mega Man’s Mega Upper in 4 and Ken’s Final Smash - and I’m hurting inside because I know there won’t be any Marvel vs Capcom 2 music in this game :p

Do you think we will have every character showed with the release? Is that even possible?

I am very disappoited that Daraen did not got a new final smash. It looks like Sakurai wanted Chrom in Smash 4, but as a Fighter he had no ideas to put Chrom in to the rooster. To many clone fighters, now echo fighters. Daraen is alot interessing fighter with unique a move set.
In Ultimate Sakurai gived the clone fighters a handy name and give Chrom the Roy move set to say, Chrom is now joining the fight. If he as gamer would like him, he would give Daraen a new final smash. How it looks now as they had not enough time to recreate Daraens final smash (I wanted that he transforms into Grima) like they did with Yoshi.

My theory is that Chrom (and possibly Dark Samus) were super last minute additions, hence Robin's FS not changing.

Also Gamexplain's preview shows us non Street Fighter 2 characters as Spirits, so here's hoping we get remixes from the other games too :)

dis needs better updatin but since game is out in a few more days i think they don't feels like it. I like the Guile Assist Trophy description "Crouches and waits patiently then Flash Kicks anyone that gets close."

I don't know if anyone has mentioned it, but one of the pictures from the Guile post reveals that he can use Sonic Boom!

And with Lucas done, we have done every single Brawl character.

We got a problem though.

Unless literally every post next week is a character post, we won't have enough room in the week for everyone before release.

Well they can get to December 7th with these four characters. And I don't know of we will see this character, but I don't think so::ultpiranha:

Well if that’s the case then we have only 3 to go, and that’s totally plausible.

Yoshi was uploaded to the other blogs, but Mr. Game and Watch has yet to show up outside of the Japanese blog for some reason.

I'm assuming Mr. Game and Watch's blog entry was delayed slightly over the minor controversy being patched. His entry will likely be posted on Tuesday or Thursday night if not next week.

How is 1 stereotypical move more offensive than 3 stereotypical characters?
