There are a lot of people that are just like her, absolutely beside themselves with joy at both Isabelle in Smash and a Switch Animal Crossing.

It's a good time to be an Animal Crossing fan!
It really is such an obvious choice for a general direct character reveal looking back on it. Hard to get much more mass appeal than Animal Crossing.

I'm just gonna put it out there..... I dont care about Isabelle but it's great she's not a full echo.

Why would anyone expect some badass trailer with a hard rock theme for an Animal Crossing character? It's a chill series and the trailer reflects that.

I've been sitting at it a while, and there doesn't seem to be a clean way to have a Character Select Screen in both expanded (echoes have own slot) and combined form. I've tried with 5, 6 and 7 rows. Assuming you have 1 Random Select spot, we currently have 69/75 slots filled.

We could do 72/78 but that means we get 3 Newcomers and nothing else and we have 6 rows.
(Seems unlikely no more echoes, though this looks the most possible to me)

We could do 70/77, which means 1 newcomer and 1 echo, and we have 7 rows.
(Seven rows is a lot, I don't think this will happen.)

We could do 70/80, which means 1 newcomer and 4 more echoes, and have 5 rows.
(Also possible, but I just can't imagine only 1 more newcomer with all the speculations)

So, I can conclusively say that the Character Select Screen will not be clean in BOTH forms. So expect there to be empty spaces and not a clean rectangle. Of course DLC will fill these voids, but it is just interesting to note.

Really dissapointed about the reactions of the Smash Fanbase for Isabelle.
Here i though Smash was all about Nintendo fans from all fanbases united in celebration of the company, turns out it's only the case for the Zelda/Metroid/Pokémon/Donkey Kong fanbases.

So far I like every newcomer and every echo (except Chrom). It feels like this Smash roster was made for me.

She brought back non-Ballot picks AND semi-clones.
I was always under the assumption we'd be getting both. I may not have been around too much recently to express it, but I always assumed the roster here would be like any other. Like Inklings and Isabelle are two very popular and more modern characters while you've got the big guest in Simon with bonus in Richter, and popular characters for Smash like DS, Chrom, and especially Ridley and Rool as the long awaited ones from the ballot

Smash 4 didn't introduce any semi clone in it's roster and the closest it got was Roy in DLC. We just thought Semi clones were done based on that and the existence of Echoes.

Anyone who voted thinking the ballot was for smash 4 dlc probably wouldn't vote for any assist trophy or boss character hence why some thought Ridley did poorly in the ballot.

That's a big assumption based nothing. I'm sure there a ton of votes for characters that were assist trophies, background characters, or the like.

Alright, this is where I stand post direct:


Early October:
  • Youtube announcement of the N64 mini for holiday season, it includes Banjo-Kazooie
Late October:
  • Smash Direct: Online modes detailed, demo announced, Dixie semi-clone, Ken echo, ends with Banjo-Kazooie announced for Smash.
Early November:
  • Nintendo direct: Among other things, Golden Sun collection or port for 3DS, Isaac announced for Smash. Kingdom Hearts collection switch port announced.
Late November:
  • Smash direct: Spirit mode detailed, Smash shop, confirmation of post release content, Pokemon newcomer, Shadow echo, ends with Sora.
January 2019:
  • First 2019 Nintendo direct: Xenoblade X port announced, Elma Smash dlc announced.

I'm torn on where the second Bamco rep goes, either Mrs Pac-Man echo in any of the directs, or Heihachi taking Dixie's place and move her to DLC alongside either a remake of DKCR with Dixie mode, or DCKR 3.


Book it!
There's not going to be an N64 mini this year. Maybe next year

Wait, why Elma instead of Rex & Pyra for DLC?

Just got home and saw the news Best of luck next time #TeamEcho.

Also i kinda hope the Dante rumors never stop the Dante fans are way chiller then the Goku fans and their post/memes are funnier as well.

I'm really disappointed at the Isabelle reaction. And it's all because she's not an Echo and the only fighter introduced today.

Some smash fans need to get a grip.
