Tournament next week
Oh boo. That's what I get for not being able to read Japanese. I just saw special and thought Special Direct. Maybe context next time on us single linguals.

Well I won't fall for that trap again.The game is called Smash Bros. Special in Japan, not Ultimate.
I can't wait for Nintendo to announce a direct and reveal a character who isn't on the leaked banner and also isn't Incineroar or a Square character, something like Chibi Robo or Wonder Red or something, killing the Grinch Leak, all the Insiders' sources, and the Box Theory in one shot.
as, you too! it means a lot I mean it.Lemme spread some real positivity for a moment. Brock, you're freaking awesome dude. Keep being you.
It's still possible that they'll have an announcement next week before the tournament, but I wouldn't bet anything on it.I suppose no Direct on the 1st then, but maybe the following week?
Just give us something!
Imagine this place if Dante is revealed and that's it. He's the last.
There's different ways the banner can be deconfirmed.I can't wait for Nintendo to announce a direct and reveal a character who isn't on the leaked banner and also isn't Incineroar or a Square character, something like Chibi Robo or Wonder Red or something, killing the Grinch Leak, all the Insiders' sources, and the Box Theory in one shot.
Asked this a couple days ago too (maybe yesterday?), what're people's current thoughts on DQ's chances at this point?
Ken's pose would probably do it.
this would be like ten christmases for me
twenty christmases if it's Chibi Robo
You know it's a lock, my man. DQ3 hero is coming.Asked this a couple days ago too (maybe yesterday?), what're people's current thoughts on DQ's chances at this point?
That was so damn cool. I remember staring in disbelief at the screen after someone typed Phoenix Wright's name and got a result, probably the most excited I've been about a game "reveal" ever.My favorite leak was when Capcom revealed Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 and put the website up, but someone found out an unrevealed character by changing a picture filename on the website. So for a good half hour or so on various gaming forums (including GAF), people were making a mad dash to plug in whatever names of Capcom and Marvel characters they could think of hoping that they'd pop up.
It was awesome.
Spent the last hour or so (minus breakfast) on this for fun. Couldn't get the color values quite right but I tried my best to manipulate the blank E3 banner to resemble the grinch one as closely as possible. Above are the full character banners for E3, Isabelle and August Direct (from top to bottom).
Feel free to draw your own conclusions... There are some areas I find suspicious. BUT. Notice how the waterfalls/trapezoidal structures on the right have always been obscured by Dedede. However, this was something the fake banner got right. (ignore the fact that the rightmost one is gone)
Yes, it was obscured even before Richter appeared in the August Direct:
And in the very first time we saw the mural:
Hmmm....
(Edit: It is possible, then, that the leaker had access to the blank e3 banner. But take note that 1) No one was able to find it for 24 hours, 2) He would have no reason to work in discrepancies 3) If we admit point 2, that means that the discrepancies are due to artifacts and distortion - which takes us back to square 1
I was on GameFAQs at the time and it was nuts.My favorite leak was when Capcom revealed Ultimate Marvel Vs.

Basically any character announcement would do it

This looks like one of those terrible filters that people use when they play emulators.See what bothers me about the grinch leak is that master FUCKING chief is like right there and nobody is paying any attention like wtf
I'm not entirely certain about the last part so if anyone could find a version of the mural where Dedede and the characters around him are NOT obscuring the waterfalls/trapezoids? The middle one, particularly
Ugh. I fucking hate those filters. They never look good.This looks like one of those terrible filters that people use when they play emulators.
In my opinion a DQ rep is the number one pick that Sakurai would go for, but maybe he wouldn't actually get them.
But then if he actually snakes Banjo into the game then he is clearly a debate wizard.
No way. Music rights are complicated, and Geno has more precedence for being represented. Also square enix doesn't like giving DQ a global push for some reason, so they'd want someone else as a character.
Lower than Geno and another FF7 rep. Higher than Lara or another FF rep.
You know it's a lock, my man. DQ3 hero is coming.
In all seriousness, I think it's an inevitability, it has to happen sooner or later (maybe DLC, maybe next game), but DQ has to be the biggest, most glaring omission by now and Smash does tend to favor japanese IPs a lot.

The collective "Who the fuck is that" reaction 99 percent of people had towards Rocket Raccoon at the time will always be my favorite part of that day.I was on GameFAQs at the time and it was nuts.
I can't believe they let that happen, but it was so hype.
What, you have something against SNES games looking like they were made in MS Paint?This looks like one of those terrible filters that people use when they play emulators.
See what bothers me about the grinch leak is that master FUCKING chief is like right there and nobody is paying any attention like wtf
fuck i'm so blindForget master chief look at what else is there...HOW DID NOBODY SEEE THISSSS
Everyone here thinks i'm stanning for Roy from Fire Emblem but i'm actually a dedicated Roy Koopa main.When I saw the title for the Wendy's Smash event, I seriously thought for a moment that it was the title for Wendy's (the Koopaling) Classic Mode run (like how characters have named Classic runs)

It's whatever you want it to be, babe.Is it hype or sexual tension or both in this thread I can't tell
My preferred characters will almost certainly be locked, so it's going to entirely depend on how fast I can unlock them.When you boot up the game, what will be your first match?
Me, it's always a Mario v Link v Kirby v Pikachu match on Battlefield (I usually don't get to have Smash launch parties with friends)
I am forever grateful that Sakurai allowed Roy (FE) to wreck Roy (Koopaling) for his DLC trailer

I'll scan in my Puff, Ganon and Ridley amiibo before doing anything.When you boot up the game, what will be your first match?

For real though, Roy Koopa is the best Roy and the best Koopa.

and then play as Mario.
Those shades are killer. Wendy is a close 2nd, though.For real though, Roy Koopa is the best Roy and the best Koopa.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate legitimately features Iggy Koopa, Dark Pit, Daisy, Alph, Richter Belmont, and Ivysaur as playable characters.
