I'm just happy that for once, a reveal is just that, a reveal. If there is one mind you, but it's nice for there to actually be surprises for once for the community instead of endless debates on some text leak.

Can someone give me some links to unofficial polls of who voted for who? I need some data for my speculation to work off.

So the new MGSV patch is interesting
You can get Quiet back, finally. Just replay mission 11 few times untill it becomes a [Reunion] mission.

Funny that they did that becasue beforehand it was a textbook case of gameplay annoyances as story

With Quiet being the best support character (after upgrades) her absence is supposed to leave a hole in you.

I don't mind because I think a game is supposed to evoke emotions without messing with the enjoyment factor.

I think it's guaranteed we will get something related to Smash in this Direct.
With that in mind, let's talk about the bare minimum - Mii fighter costumes!

What costumes do you hope to see?

Amen. I hope if for some reason we do get what appears to be a very legitimate leak of the Direct's specific content, that people are thoughtful enough to use spoiler tags in this thread. I think we can manage that for less than 48 hours.

Pretty unlikely scenario though, and I don't know that there's any history of that happening.

Mewtwo most certainly wasn't brought back because he was even a veteran, much less for the fact he was from Melee. He's freaking Mewtwo.
But the fact is he is a Melee veteran. It really doesn't matter if he was added due to popularity or not, him being a veteran from Melee would nullify the need for a second such as Roy if that really were the primary bases on which the latter was added. Mewtwo's inclusion would be killing two birds with one stone, would it not?

To say Mewtwo doesn't count as a fan-favourite Melee veteran simply because his popularity was in excess of the others doesn't make any sense. If Sakurai were only looking to have included one character under those specifications he needn't have included Roy.

The truth of the matter is if he can include Roy after Mewtwo there's no logistical barrier stopping him from including Wolf after Lucas. There's your true veteran parity anyway, not in two veterans and one we just don't count for some reason.

Well, the Direct with Rosalina was leaked a few minutes early.
So, it's possible.

Viridi. . .oh wait. That dream already came true. :)

uhhhh. A Federation Force soldier (Gunner). Phoenix Wright/Miles Edgeworth(Brawler). Elma (swordfigher) [don;t think she would be playable normally and I would bet money i will wind up liking her when I actually get xenoblade].

Ajna (Brawler). Zebei (Gunner). Antonie (swordfighter)

Xenoblade X costumes to coincide with the game would be amazing.

Other than that I want Boom Knuckles as a brawler costume.

So in other words, a Federation Force costume would make all three of you happy for different reasons? :p
Hm, I wonder if they had one in the works...before the backlash...

It'd be cool to see Ninten, Dark Samus, and maybe a generic Doctor outfit.

Do it enough times and it is more than just trouble.

Also, turns out it wasn't the final boss, and I'm out of reviving items.

Welp. Time to grind.
Well, he knocked out my entire party

That's a little bit more than trouble

Mii costumes are irrelevant.

Give me alternate costumes.

Or atleast more skins for characters like giving Mario his old skins back, same with Link, Samus, Wario, Fox, Falco and new skins for other characters

Wow these are fantastic. I wish I could play a real game with these guys :/

I like the whole Aztec/Mayan thing they got going too.

Only if it comes with playable Wonder Red.

Since we're sorta on the topic of reveals, who would make you all freak out if he/she/it were revealed?

For me it's Bayonetta. I might legit jump for joy if she was revealed simply because of my lack of hope for her.

Simon Belmont or Zael. They are two of my most wanted characters, but they're both unlikely because the latter's not very popular and the former is owned by Konami.

Nintendo of japan just announced a direct there as well.


Mainly posting this because I can't remember where I heard it but I heard someone actually say that there wouldn't be a character reveal because there's no direct in Japan. And some other people saying we wouldn't get major announcements if Japan isn't getting one as well.

I'm just going to wait until Sakurai retweets about the Direct and then I'm going to leave. I'd rather avoid the gif overdose. :p

What I'm hoping for:
Pokemon Z (It's coming and we all know it)
Newcomer for Smash (No veterans, something new and exciting please)
Fire Emblem Fates release date

That's all I need.

So Corocoro leaked:


Nothing huge, but more "Z" teasing. There is a second zygarde cell of importance. This one has a blue belly instead of a red belly. This seems to prove the theory that there are two different zygarde cores for 50% and that you would need to combine both to get perfect zygarde.
