With Smash Ultimate's DLC coming to an end this Tuesday (presumably - maybe they could release some random stages or Mii costumes afterwards, but I doubt it), what are some games or series that you got into thanks to this period of Smash speculation or reveals?

For me, it was:

-Castlevania - I had tried playing the classic titles on the Wii and Wii U, but I couldn't get into them. Richter's inclusion led to me giving Symphony of the Night a shot, and between that and Aria of Sorrow (and Bloodstained, which partially counts), I definitely prefer the Metroid themed Castlevanias over the linear platformers)

-Persona - I had bought Persona 5 on sale, but hadn't played it. Joker's reveal encouraged me to try it out. Since then, I beat Persona 5 Strikers, and 4, and bought 3 and Arena Ultimax, so I'm a fan

-Shantae - admittedly, this also has to do with Fraymakers, but I gave the series a shot (though admittedly, I went with the shortest game, Risky's Revenge), and I enjoyed it

-Ninja Gaiden - I made sure to do my research and pick the easiest game in the series, and even then, it kicked my butt repeatedly even on the second-easiest difficulty. Still, I have a better understanding of why people want Ryu Hayabusa in Smash, even if I still don't see the appeal behind ultra-difficult series like this or Dark Souls. (I'm fine with difficulty up to the point, but after a while, it's just not fun)

I think that's about it - while I started out with other series, like Guilty Gear or Dragon Quest, that had more to due with the fact that they were easily available, rather than trying them out for reasons relating to Smash speculation.

Donkey Kong Country. K Rool made me check the games out. Now I’m sitting here anxiously awaiting the reveal of the new one.

I suppose Fire Emblem as well. I’m not a huge fan, but every once in a while I’ll pick up the newest game and have a good time.

I played Banjo-Kazooie and Donkey Kong Country thanks to their respective Smash reveals. And while I didn’t play em’, I checked out playthroughs of Persona 5 and Xenoblade Chronicles 2. Well, I did play a bit of Xenoblade.

Ya know, since Chapter 2 of DR did well, and that October 30 this year is gonna be like Deltarune Second Anniversery, if i'm not mistaken. Ya guys think we're going to get a little something for Toby at the end of the month?

Maybe, but I find it more likely that we’ll get more Deltarune news in about four years :nifty:

I got into Dragon Quest because of Hero’s inclusion. Though as of now I’ve only played XI S and the OG trilogy.

I wasn't even thinking about big news or the like, just a little cool surprise for DR fans since Chapter 1 as been out for 2-3 years at this point.

Though will say, it ain't gonna take 4 years to get big news lol. Call me a optimist, but at most, we just have to wait 2 more years for Chapter 3-5. (maybe a little less if developpement goes much smoother thanks to chapter 2 experience)

Dragon Quest 11, Final Fantasy 7, more taditional FGs (wanted to expand my knowledge of FGs).

I do not regret buying any of them, especially DQ11. Such a good game.

He has a team now? When was this? This sounds interesting.

Pretty much what I been thinking, yeah.

He gonna be confident too if he think he can release 3 chapters in one go.

Not sure exactly when, but he got one between chapter 1 and 2.

Pretty much needed one to be able to make Deltarune a full game too.

I’ve been seeing so much stuff about Amazon’s New World MMORPG. Really curious if I should play it, considering the mmorpg nerd I am.


At the same time though, Crossover might not be enough to get it to run on my chromebook.

They were already in my backlog but I played Super Metroid, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night & Persona 5 because of Smash hype. All three ended up being some of my favorite games ever.
