Hopefully we can have more than just FF music on Midgar. The Streetpass Quest music would fit in well.

Hoping the blurred mode is a good single player mode like subspace emissary. I missed it from the wiiu/3ds version.

Has anyone been able to put a name to the Monster Hunter stage? I'm not really big into the series

Here a list of all confirmed rules:
[Text in this box and color are predictions] and outside is a comment

Normal Rule Setting:
  • ??? [Rules (Stock / Time / Stamina / Coin)]
  • ??? [Number of Stocks / Time for Time or Coin / HP for Stamina]
  • ??? [Fighter Present (In Order / Name / Series)] This would make a lot of people happy
  • ??? [Echo Fighter Display (Single / Grouped)] It was mentioned as an option
  • ???
  • ???
  • Damage Handicap (??? / Off) [1 to 9 ] like in Smash 4
  • Stage Select
    • Select
      • Choose
      • Choose in Order
      • Loser's Pick
    • Present (In Order / ???) [In Order / Name / Series] What else could there be as order?
    • Random
      • Random
      • Battlefield & Omega
      • Battlefield Only
      • Omega Only
  • Final Smash Meter (On / Off)
  • Items
    • [Appearance (None / Low / Middle / High ] like in Smash 4
    • [Each Item (On / Off)]
    • [Each Pokemon (On / Off)] Would be great!
    • [Each Assist Trophy (On / Off)] Would be great!
  • Random Stage Selection
    • [Each stage (On / Off) ]
    • [Each stage Battliefield (On / Off) ]
    • [Each stage Omega (On / Off) ]
Advanced Rules
  • Stage Morph ( Off / Random / Every (min) )
  • Stage Hazards (On / Off)
  • Team Attack (On / Off)
  • Launch Rate (1.0x / ???) [0.5 to 2,0] like in Smash 4
  • Custom Balance ( ??? / Off ) I really want to know, what this means ...
  • Pausing (On / Off)
  • ??? (Number of rules is unclear)
  • ??? [Score Display (On /Off)]
  • ??? [SD Penalty (1 Point / 2 Points / Off) ] like in Smash 4
  • ??? [Damage Gauge (On /Off)]

The custom balance setting is interesting. When I first saw it I thought it was just the Damage Handicap option re-branded, but that's a confirmed menu option, soo... *shrugs shoulders*

SPECULATION TIME
--Maybe it's just a way to quickly turn on/off all the Advanced Rules listed.
--Has there been any confirmation custom movesets returning? Maybe this toggles that option on/off.
--Saw some theories that it could be Sakurai's way to please competitive Melee players somehow, but would an option like that be titled "Custom Balance"? Seems like this would imply something else.

Guess we'll see.

Man, I just noticed from K Rool's trailer that DK is wearing his Punch-Out!! gloves versus K Rool's DK64 gloves

Here's the problem y'all. There have been 3 info dumps.
#1 Revealed Inklings
#2 Revealed all veteran characters returning, Daisy, and Ridley.
#3 Revealed Simon, Richter, Chrom, Dark Samus, and King K. Rool.

There is (presumably) one info dump left. Who is big enough that they would save them for last?

I want to believe that we're being trolled and that all characters who aren't being used in a match will be available as assist trophies so characters like Waluigi, Shovel Knight, Alucard, etc. still have a chance of being playable.

So my last hope list.

Incineroar
Rex and Pyra(unlikely outside of DLC I know)
Travis Touchdown
Geno
Medusa as a Palutena echo.
Octoling as an Inkling echo.

Also almost no chance she's playable but I'd love something from Shantae in this game.

I expect at least 2-3 more Smash directs.

But I guess next time the newcomer might be Geno, with Dixie and Isabelle being revealed as echoes, or in Dixie's case a semi-clone.

Krystal is in the game and they gave Wolf an ahegao. Don't question it.

At the very least I wish Raiden was an assist trophy but its easier to use Grey Fox i guess.

Gray Fox probably works better as an assist given his role and iconic appearance but pretty brief actual playable presence, a Raiden echo could actually work really well now that we've seen Chrom and DS.

Give him a cartwheel roll and zandatsu final smash and he'd be perfect.

Incineroar is very likely, and Geno has a shot. The rest of them may not happen, at least not till DLC for Rex/Pyra and probably the Octolings.

Goku riding on the wave of Dragon Ball Fighterz Switch, while also explaining online modes and demo announcement shortly around the release of Nintendo paid online.

Then a final short direct weeks before release, with the single player mode, some final details and the final newcomers and echoes (Maybe Dixie there, close to the announcement of DKCR 3 back with Kremlings for 2019?).

Yo, Sakurai not playing right now

KRool looks crazy viable, he's slow but versatile

All the echos were dope. And Simon looks like a possible solidpick depending how fast he is.

I feel like this game should be the new pillar to the smash scene going forward

Does anyone have the high-res renders of the 5 newly revealed characters? I'm not very skilled with using inspect element or I'd get them myself.

So at this juncture I'm guessing as far as full newcomers go...
- Something Rhythm Paradise
- Elma I guess? I'm still putting stock into that rifle thing and that she could've been considered an advertisement character for smash 4 DLC alongside Corrin
- New Pokemon

And then echoes, anything else is DLC wishes.

didn't even know Rainbow Cruise was confirmed
This one blew past me as well, neat!

Can I say how happy I am about Richter? I've never been a big fan of Simon especially the blonde look.

Richter is my second favorite after Julius.(third if I can count the Netflix version of Trevor.)

So I was always kinda meh because I knew Simon would be the pick. Richter will definitely be the one I use more.

Taking today's deconfirmations into account, my wishlist is as follows:

1. Incineroar
2. Banjo & Kazooie
3. Dixie Kong
4. Boshi
5. Elma

We're really scraping the bottom here, considering I haven't even played those last two games.

I think even a Snake echo could do if they go with MGS2 Raiden. Just have his side B be a move with the sword.

But obviously I'd prefer Revengeance Raiden.

It's crazy how many fan requested characters are getting into Smash. I really like the changes they are making as well.

I mocked King K. Rool fans a lot back in the Smash 4 days because they were, honestly, really obnoxious. But I have to admit that I got hyped during that trailer. I'm not necessarily a fan of the character, but I love the way Sakurai manages to bring every one of his fighters to life.

I always held out a sliver of hope for Richter, better known as Best Belmont, so you can imagine my reaction when he popped up on the screen.

Same, honestly. I never cared for K. Rool as a character (and I'm still pretty indifferent to him) but his Smash incarnation finally seems to do something good with the weird thing.
