What could realistically be announced in a Smash Direct?

- Joker shown off and Sakurai goes into the intricacies of the character
- Stage is shown off for him
- New music, spirits are also shown
- Homerun Contest is back
- Stage builder is back
- New DLC character is announced
- Sakurai announces he's working on a new Kid Icarus for Switch
All but that last one.

Basically all of that until the last point, lmao

I'm fairly certain there will probably be a teaser for the next Fighter Pass character at the end, presumably for "Brave" (which we all assume is a DQ rep).

Metroid Prime Trilogy will be a new mode added to Smash. Has nothing to do with Smash. It's just MPT, all of the games.

"MPT is done but won't necessarily appear in a Direct any time soon"
*MPT doesn't appear in a Direct*
"WTF where is MPT"

Nintendo will be able to claim it's the best selling Metroid of all time selling 15 million copies.

That isn't even a rumor, it's a known fact. CoroCoro comes out 15th of each month with updates on the upcoming game, so we expect official reveals a couple of days before that.
Don't expect Coro Coro to have any new information this month. It'll have the information from the Direct, potentially with trainer art and the starter height, weights, etc., but we're probably going to be waiting until May for meaningful new information.

We should find out what it's all about in a matter of days on the 13th, at least. If Nintendo tweets something out then then we'll know there's the slightest shred of something to it. Maybe.

Aspis, the aspen's Greek name, means shield and amongst the Celts its lightweight wood was indeed favoured for making shields. These shields were more than mere physical barriers between warrior and enemy; they were imbued with additional magical, protective qualities to shield the bearer from psychic as well as physical harm.

Sounds like it's Pokemon Sword and Shield related

If this for example relates to Pokemon Shield and the professor is indeed Professor Asp or Aspen, then it's a damn clever wordplay too, since Aspen comes directly from the word shield in Greece.

If this is a hoax, it's still fun. Especially since the first japanese asp was clearly google translated :D

If accurate, then I'd assume each date is something related to Pokemon. Whether it be news, a trailer or its release date.
