Super Smash Bros. General v16: Everyone is STICKERS!

The main reason why I'm not mad about PP is because of it's status as a free pre-order bonus- in order to piss off as few people as possible, it had to have been a cheap, easy character to pull off. What better than something with 90% of it's models done?
In the end, it was something that was unlikely to cost much, with the real characters being later in development. We'll get more people we want later, I'm sure.
I wonder if they might bring back the Smash 64 fighter profiles as a way to give people incentive to play Classic Mode.
yea I got over Piranha plant fast after I looked up some reactions to his reveal

they're all the same shit too i swear lmao. why the fuck anyone thought a simple reveal using in-game footage would be some sorta hype character reveal is so beyond me but yea I'm pretty on board with this character now. i'm sorry but this shits just too funny and it's all i'm gonna think of now whenever i see this character. I swear to god if it ends up top tier and in tournaments I'm gonna fuckin DIE
dude i saw that too. the fact alpha thought it was going to be fucking GENO when its not even a cinematic was funny. but i think its hard to judge when ppl are full of adrenaline and arent thinking clearly. one of my friends always records our discord calls when these directs happen and ill go back and watch them, and ill be like "wtf i really said that?"
So here's a lil tidbit from the World of Light trailer:

To be fair none of the DLC characters got flashy cinematics (besides Corrin lul)
It would be a damn shame if we get someone big lik Banjo and all they do is a little "yup here's Banjo have fun"
true but lets be honest alpha was really grasping at straws there lol
At this point, I'll take what I can get to avoid the Stevepocalypse, especially since Banjo is one of my 3 most wanted not in. Give him a single poster that slides across the screen into gameplay footage and it's good enough for me.
Of course, the other two were Geno and Isaac , so, uh, yeah, today wasn't the day I anticipated.

I dont like that Incineroar does a pose after every successful hit.
It's cool thematically but it's also something that I will always cancel out of and is basically just flavored end lag.

A lot of people theorize Shulk casted Speed on Kirby, given Xenoblade mechanics and how kirby on his warpstar is probably the fastest vehicle in the lineup
Another fun thing about the trailer- you can tell Sega was totally okay with showing it's characters get their ass beat by the beams, while Capcom and Squeenix characters are nowhere to be found
I wonder if they were hesitant before Sakurai and pals were like "okay okay, what if he dies trying to save Pikachu?"
To be fair, Sonic saving tiny animals has kinda always been his M.O.
I thought that was a good touch that lines up with his entire saving small animals shtick.
With Capcom we saw Mega Man actually die and Ken get slammed into a screen, I think they just didn't make a scene for them in there. Square Enix is definitely the over protective one.
I see a lot of people treating Spirits as the some kinda' death knell for a character's DLC hopes, but it's not like with assist trophies where having Waluigi the fighter appearing alongside Waluigi the assist trophy would cause problems. They could very easily have a character be both a sticker and a fighter without needing to do anything.
I mean sure but they straight up said in the direct that fighters aren't spirits, so yea, it kinda is a death kneel. i know everyones looking for loopholes right now, but it was stated pretty plainly.
The real question right now is the fuck was up with Geno, who was a profile icon lol. Is he a spirit too or just a profile icon? the fuck are the profile icons anyways, I must've missed that shit i guess.
Isn't it because they try to make Fighters play like the spirits they're trying to represent? Would be kind of weird to add Woodman for example and still have a woodman Spirit battle with Megaman.
Man it's heart breaking the hearts of people thinking Shulk sped up the warpstar. That thing in series traveles galaxies in a manner of seconds. Like Squeak Squad straight up shows it hitting warpdrive to the darkest reaches of space in a *instant*. Shulk turned around and did a big grunt then blew up really.
that said more I see of the fuckin lucha cat more I love the stupid asshole. He's just overwhelming in personality.

In terms of DLC I'm just not sure how much attention they're really gonna' pay to it.
I can't wait to smash that smug ass face into the ground.
Sakurai and the Smash team are really good at getting me to warm up to newcomers I don't particularly care for. I wonder if they could get me excited to play as Minecraft Steve, or hell, a potted plant!
Man Xenoblade got a lot of attention in this direct. CONSTANT Spirit appearances like Melia, Fiora, Mumkhar, Zeke, Pyra, Rex, Tora, Shulk gets a pretty central role in the little World of Light cinematic, Sakurai literally apologizes for 5 minutes that Rex isn't in the game by offering up a costume and music. Still, almost feels like they're forgetting something though. Something or some -game- is being ignored.

No wait I figured it out, it's just XCX gets a single piece of content in the whole Direct and it's a sticker of a robot. Well I might not get a costume, assist trophy, stage or song but at least I'll probably be able to play as a giant ROB with a superscope and pretend. All the love XB1/2 get make the snub at X hurt twice as bad.
Also what the fuck was Marth thinking, did he even look at the crew he brought with him. "Oh we can finally understand what he's saying"
