The game has more than enough fighters.
I hope they announce an online beta instead.

No Xenoblade Chronicles 2 representation, no buy.

There has to be at least one Xeno 2 character in this Direct considering this is a month from the DLC.

Personally i'd like Jin, Malos or Morag-Brighid, but most likely it will be fcking Rex and Pyra.

Am I weird for looking forward to new game mode announcements more than new character announcements? I just feel that the character list is good enough already that I'd rather see how the game can be played beyond simple matches.

All this character discussion and I am here just hoping they finally tell me something about the single player modes :(

I'll be surprised if there isn't any Xenoblade 2 representation at some point considering Sakurai made it a point to say how much he loved the game. Who that'll be remains to be seen, but I definitely hope for Malos, though that'll only work if his VA is allowed to shout his battle arts :D

To back up my theory (even though it's pretty much a lock) i'd like to remind you that earlier this year Sakurai wrote on his column for Famitsu, that he played Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and liked it a lot.

brazil, unfortunately
I'm pretty sure we'll get an online related direct in september.

also a pokemon direct in in october.

What remains to be confirmed is if we'll get a third one more general/traditional, by the end of the year.

Hoping for Elma and for Alph to be made an Echo Fighter. It's crazy he isn't.

Dixie and Impa are probably my two most wanted after those.

Edit: to be clear, this means nothing, that has been there since the beginning of the game.

I'm happy for smash fans but it was a little to much smash at e3. Especially when they do another smash direct this early.

Would have preferred a couple other announcements at e3 and less smash. Smash fans getting their own dedicated direct.

Generally you don't add unique characters less than a year before release based on a game you just played because you liked it.

I'm the same. I'm looking forward to the modes more than the character announcements.

I'm excited for this because smash bros is my favourite franchise and I'll probably play pretty much nothing else once it releases. On the flip side it feels a little weird as E3 was basically dedicated to smash bros. When do Nintendo plan to give the rest of what they've got planned some attention?

Why wouldn't it be necessary to continually market one of the biggest games of the holiday?

Smash isn't exactly in RDR2's spot where that game actually needs more spotlight.

People know Smash U exists... its constantly on tv on certain channels in America. The casuals know. Hardcore already know.

We just got an extensive look at E3 and here we go with another one! I'm still excited but jeez! At least a character reveal is pretty much guaranteed

I'm honestly surprised to see the number of people who expect Rex/Pyra, or Spring Man, etc.

Sakurai decided the roster in 2015, you won't get any characters from recent Switch games until DLC.

I appreciate all the responses to my earlier question. I was truly curious about what people though. It does still seems strange to me seeing Nintendo to follow up their somewhat criticized E3 direct because it featured mainly Smash with more Smash, they could have spaced it out more.

But I certainly look forward to future Directs, sad that I didn't get something that interests me this time but I can wait a few more weeks.

Well, if someone had hope Nintendo would have something beyond smash and Pokemon this year, sorry.

I know it sucks for a lot of people it's more Smash again and there are plenty of people who don't care for Smash. Maybe September we'll get a general direct.

As awesome as a collection of everything is, I was ready for smash to feel fresh iterations ago.

If they're doing another direct so soon, my guess would be that they aren't really happy that it was mistaken as a port and want to show some new stuff.

Hoping for some single player modes and a new character that isnt from Anime. A character from Arms would be cool, or from some smaller DS/3DS games like chorus kid, sadly, I think it would be too small to be the big announcement from the direct.
