You haven’t blocked me yet
I mean I know you hit a limit

But I’m sure you still could if you try hard enough
Why would I ignore someone who is prime bully material? I gotta make fun of someone around here.

I’m practicing with some drawing stuff again, here’s a work in progress that I’m taking a whole lot of time on because I’m trying to figure out how different parts work

oh hey I’m useful!

Don’t worry, the bullying doesn’t bother me as much cause I’ve seen you get mad over minor stuff before so I see it more as a reward than anything

Alright. We got a new prez in Nintendo of America. News that you'd thought would be in a Direct just straight up are now announced out in the blue, such as Joker and Super Mario Maker 2's release date, which a great amount of us thought would be in a Direct.

I'm JUST saying. For E3, just MAYBE.

To help usher Doug in...

Conference?

I doubt we will get a E3 conference from Nintendo again given the Direct approach has been quite successful for them. It is possible, but considering how these conferences are more often a miss than hits I hope not.

Honest, random thought. What if every next Smash DLC character is just dropped a la Joker.

No announcement in directs whatsoever, they are just dropped whenever Nintendo wants.
The year is 2019

Nobody expected Joker to be revealed by surprise instead of through a Nintendo Direct. It was strange, but not out of character for Nintendo.

When we didn't get a character reveal at E3 people were confused. Then all of a sudden they dropped Erdrick on the 4th of July, alongside the disconfirmations of Geno and Chrono, to mass outcry from the fanbase.

Jumping to conclusions, fans began to fear the unexpected. Any day a reveal could come out of nowhere, either confirming or disconfirming their biggest desires. Fan debates scaled into arguments which scaled into shouting matches which scaled into all-out wars.

Out of boredom and "for the keks" 4chan decided to brigade GameFAQs resulting in countless users both innocent and guilty being banned. When they attempted to hit Reddit it got so bad that the Smash Bros. subreddit had to be closed. 20 new Smashboards moderators were brought on in the wake of these attacks in case they were to make another hit, and they did. Even with reinforcements the moderation and administration team were able to hold on just long enough to weather the cataclysmic ****storm. 4chan then ended up turning on itself and attacking /v. This resulted in the creation of /sm, a board dedicated to Smash Bros, after 4chan moderators and administration unanimously agreed that "****'s ****ing cancer." Following that the 4chan community largely settled down.

Banjo followed in another sudden drop that August, and Lloyd was revealed in an October Nintendo Direct. Fans began to feel hope again. Maybe, just maybe this was all behind us.

Then came Leon on Christmas, and the out-of-left-field announcement of another Ballot to determine the final DLC character in February. Tensions reached an all-time-high. The fight was taken to Twitter as all of the remaining fanbases duked it out in a free for all that enveloped the entire internet. It was impossible to stay neutral. It was later found out that the intelligence agencies of Russia and China had all attempted to influence public say. Apparently they really like Waluigi over there. People compared this to the period of speculation centered around the Grinch Hoax, and many fans were driven away from the community as the final straw broke over the camel's back, and the Smash Bros. fanbase was consigned to a perpetual stereotype of toxicity.

In the fallout of it all, stood Sora as the winner. The twins from Astral Chain were also there for some reason but idc Sora got in.

That was two months ago. Since then the goliath of Smash Bros. character speculation has returned to dormancy. People have begun to resume their normal lives again. And just like that the memories begin to fade, as another chapter closes in the story of our lives.

~FIN~

Honestly, after E3, I'm done predicting when we get newcomer announcements whether we get one there or not

You're forgetting something important, though. Sony and EA aren't appearing, which will be a massive drop in cringe compilation juice.

We need to fuel the cringe economy again, Zeke, you just don't understand.

If Sakurai doesn't come out on stage and dab in front of a live audience to the reveal of Banjo, how will we be able to live?

So...

Ja----Kasumi as a Joker echo is finally dead, right?
No, not yet.
They could still modify her, shroob.
We don't know her persona yet, shroob.

SHROOB IT COULD STILL HAPPEN.
SHROOOOOOOOOOOB.

It just occurred to me, now it's possible for Joker to date Kasumi. The shipping wars will get bigger!

There was a problem fetching the tweet

In other news, Nintendo just drops Mario Maker 2's release date like it's nothing.
Yo, cool, too bad it's at the butt end of the month. Would have been nice if it was a week before E3.

At this point, a May Direct doesn't seem likely.

She’s a mii costume for sure
Either that or a DLC spirit. Maybe then they'd acknowledge the SMT stuff. Yeah right...

honestly, it's hard to say

she has a sword and one-handed shotgun, which are styles that could feasibly be translated into a ken-like echo of joker, and her costume is basically just skimpy female joker complete with trenchcoat and matching silhouette

the other interesting thing is that joker's grappling hook recovery seems most likely directly taken from P5R, so sakurai's known about it for some time
