It's pretty damn early but I'm going to bed. This is a precaution because I haven't had a proper night's rest in a good few days and tomorrow is a very important day, so I'm gonna really need it.

With that said, Good Night [Big Shots]. The day of reckoning is almost upon us.

 

[TheMightyP]

Your reaction when Harada steps on screen tomorrow and Sakurai announces him as the new head of smash.

Then Harada announces pass 3 and Harada presents where he chills at good bar talking smash.

Damn, we're really NEVER getting Rollback now

Given that it’s almost inevitable that the video will begin with the fighter being revealed, I’d like to request we view the video one frame at a time, so we can keep the “agonizing tension during the video waiting for the reveal” going.

 

[Z25]

Damn, we're really NEVER getting Rollback now

No rollback would of course be the first announcement.

Smash fans should expect this by now.

Esteemed cohorts,

I am writing to you this day to commemorate our time together in this war. It has been a harrowing battle, filled to the brim with blood, sweat, tears, and the constant sounds of keyboard rattling, but at long last, tomorrow we are due our final prize. The answer to the question.

CP11, who?

I eagerly await what the masses have to say about whoever the lucky fellow is. Now that the fiery embers of war are starting to reach their last wisp, I find I am at peace when reflecting about this time. May it always go down in memory as one of our finest hours, and one I shall not forget. Not one moment, not one single meme. I will always remember, when Smashboards was us.

Yours in times of war,

MooMew Galoshes von Pawston, XII

Me watchin' all the chaos tomorrow:

Anyways

See y'all for Cinderace

I also have a new drawing for later today so I'll post it when it's ready

I ain't peacin' out just yet, but I proooooobably will around 10 EDT.

Maybe even later, I'll see how safe things look around then. Wanna go in blind this last time.

The final fighter starts off with every major remaining request being killed off in a very ****ty in memoriam montage.

Smash fans about to fork out $8 for basic training mode features that should be standard in any fighting game at launch

[Rie Sonomura]

i set some security measures in place on twitch, and now i'm gonna stream Splatoon 2: Octo Expansion, particularly the escape segment, in the hopes of manifesting Octoling and/or Off the Hook for tomorrow's final Smash character

if you want to watch: https://twitch.tv/riesonomura and I'll do my best to not skip ANY phases, I did a no skip run once before!

 

[TheMightyP]

What I do find interesting is that Sakurai did say that FP2 was suppossed to be a couple extra fighters before it became a full fledged pass.

Where do you think he would've drawn the line if Nintendo didn't tell him to make another pass?

Steve and Sephiroth would've been all we got.

I think there's a high probability we would've ended at Sephiroth or Steve.

Watching Tim Burton's Sleepy Hollow tonight as the start of my Halloween movie marathon. Following it will be Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark, The Blair Witch Project and Ghostbusters 1 & 2 (Also to get ready for Ghostbusters: Afterlife).

[Wario Bros.]

Sakurai, Harada, Nintendo, and Smash Bros. JP account on Twitter are hyping the living hell out of this final character.

They're really confident that Ultimate is ending with a big bang.

Tomorrow I watch Spectre to get ready for No Time To Die.

Also spending Thanksgiving at my grandpa's (Here in Canada we get it early as opposed to the US).

I mean, no matter who the character is, it will be a big bang.


We'll never see a video game like Ultimate for a very long time, and this is the final swan song.

Big Bang, huh?

Guess the Prince of all Saiyan is finally getting the respect he deserve.

Does Harada even know who is the final character or is he just being himself?

 

[Cutie Gwen]

I can see it now, everything starts as normal, but someone knocks on Sakurai's door...

He shall be let free

Goku is already a spirit.

That and it ain't the best Goku.

AKA the only Goku I respect if he got in Smash

Considering he’s super tight with Sakurai and works for Namco, he probably knows.

Judging by his tweet, probably not.

Let's be surprised together *Last celebration*:P https://t.co/DYejMJ36jS

— Katsuhiro Harada (@Harada_TEKKEN) October 4, 2021

Regardless, him working on Ultimate gives him a reason to promote it anyway.

 

[NNN]

Do you all remember how the last Smash 4 character was the one that broke the meta?

 

[Z25]

One thing I hope we get, if we get any extra content, is like one giant music pack. With it featuring tracks from a bunch of different games, maybe even third party ones. Be a great addition to have music that celebrates gaming history continue to be added.

 

[Jondolio]

gonna really try and sleep now before the day of reckoning

g'night

If anything that makes it more likely he knows. You don’t use the



unless your joking. Implying he’s joking it’s a surprise to him.

Yeah, the competitive crowd never stopped complaining about it.

It was and still is super funny.

 

[Shroob]

Tomorrow....


After all this time, we'll know who CP11 is this time tomorrow...

 

[Deleted member]

I will probably buy Nickelodeon All Stars tomorrow.

For PS4 obviously (and sadly because I don't have online there).

Is Gex on NSO?

First off, the countdown

When ultimate was twelve days out from release, I did a series of images featuring each of the original 12 fighters interacting with my character.

This one features my irl best buddy, who goes by Wukong online. He likes monkeys, so I made him DK for this one!

Not all of these are winners, but I still had fun with them. Especially the Yoshi one, I’m really proud of how it came out. In hindsight, I probably could’ve done something like this with every dlc character leading up to tomorrow…aw well.

Next up, roster predictions:

This was made in late august 2018. Only two were correct, and Isabelle isn’t an echo. So more like one and a half lmao

This was done in December 2018. My predictions were Erdrick, an Xbox character, Crash, and some form of Undertale content. The only one I got wrong was Crash. So far…

This was made for the Incineroar thread, to celebrate his inclusion! Good times…

This concludes part 1! Part 2 will be held shortly, so please look forward to it!
