can anyone give me the rundown on recent leaks/ speculation?

For the past few hours

Vergeben and some other leakers are heavily implying that we would get a playable Minecraft character in Smash.

One of them (I think Verg) said that the Square Enix character is so under wraps that even having the character get leaked would get someone fired. Implying this character is a big deal.

Shinji Hashimoto made a reply tweet saying simply "Yes" to a fan tweeting support for Sora in Smash and he then deleted the Tweet.

I hope there are more Nintendo characters for DLC than last time!

We'll get Rex and Pyra and Sproing Man definitely. Maybe a BOTW rep. Maybe a character from The Wonderful 102.

This was Smash 4 DLC with regards to Nintendo characters:

the more i sit down and think about steve, the more faith i have that they would never make him playable, standing next to the hyper-expressive DK, with steve's stone-cold stare

I still don't know what's his nose, his mouth, or his lips...

SieteBlanco · Sep 20, 2018

Rex and an ARMS character? Sure. Don't see BotW character happening, they would have been in the base roster.

ClickyCal' · Sep 20, 2018

If the square character was that big, it's sora. Absolutely not geno, No one would care about leaking that.

Assuming the rumors are true we still got 8 Nintendo characters in a 13 character roster. There's also a chance Elma could be in so that's 9 out of 14.

There were three non-Nintendo characters and four Nintendo ones.

I found it now.

Also he commented on Castlevania Collection, Simon (and Snake I think), and another few things first before DasVergeben so I'm positive that he piggybacked on those stuff but I will give DasVergeben the credit for Isabelle for sure, and 7th Pokemon that weren't "Decidueye, Lycanroc and Mimikyu".

Did I miss the persona 4 announcement in the last direct? Or can we selectively decide which leaks DasVergeben ripped from Steath and which he didn't based upon which are correct and incorrect?

And for third party characters so far. He's gone for the most notable characters for their respective company.

I can agree with this. Smash 4 DLC made me kinda sick of 3rd party characters.

Metto · Sep 20, 2018

So if Steve and Sora are in who do you think they'd have be the big finale? I'm kind of leaning on Sora because I think his inclusion would be more surprising.

I think they're both going to be revealed in November alongside Shadow, a Direct filled with third parties. But yeah, Sora would be the final reveal.

Deleted member 46477 · Sep 20, 2018

Y'all saying we ain't getting Utada Hikaru songs in Smash are not dreaming big enough.

Utada Hikaru is the final newcomer! Let her embrace you in the Sanctuary of her final smash!

Just like the August direct one in the beginning and one at the end.

Today's fighter is Pikachu

Today's Fighter
#08: Pikachu
This fierce fighter uses electric moves like Thunder Jolt and Thunder. Pikachu Libre is one of the alternate costumes and you can tell she's female by the shape of her tail.

I'm actually a bit surprised they did Pikachu already, I expected to hold off until Let's Go came out like Wario & WWG

It's going to be Pokemon Trainer.

That already happened a while ago. His memory was Pokemon Stadium for some reason

Speaking of, Pikachu's Memory is Yellow

a brief google translate doesnt seem to mention Let's Go at all. Surprising.

Smash's version of Pikachu is the coolest by far. Anime chu has a lot of individual moments but the smash move set and animations are just too good.

Now I just wish they brought back the electrocution skeletons from Smash64. Was that considered too violent or too much extra work?

IntelliHeath · Sep 20, 2018

Lmao what if the remaining newcomers are
Steve, Sora, Incenroar and Elma

That would be a good choices so I don't see anything wrong with that.

Kirbivore · Sep 20, 2018

Are we so desperate that we want Stealth of all people to be acknowledged?

IntelliHeath · Sep 20, 2018

I'm shocked that it actually took them long time to show Pikachu on the blog.

SieteBlanco · Sep 20, 2018

Yeah, I'd be fine with Sora, Incieroar, Elma and Steve. Mostly because Elma is cool, but Sora would alleviate most of the salt caused by Steve.

I'm so stoked for his ultimate moveset. The animation's great and the nautral air looks soooo fun

KtotheRoc · Sep 20, 2018

I've been checking out the Pokémon Marathon on Twitch. Definitely have a lot of Pikachu on the brain lately, lol.

Bard · Sep 20, 2018

Sora and Steve would be a double wammy of garbage. Knowing how Sakurai is though, it wouldn't surprise me.

It's why I figured they'd hold off until Let's Go. Guess not

~~pikachu & his memory are 150/151 and mewtwo was robbed~~

The quick attack into thunder on snake in the official video is fraudulent af though. So dumb :L

Birdie · Sep 20, 2018

I'm still a bit shocked Pikachu doesn't have one of his Z-Moves as a Final Smash...they could've left Pichu with Volt Tackle, since technically it's kind of his move originally as you needed to breed a Pichu to get it.

who do you speak those names in the same breath

Lord Vatek · Sep 20, 2018

Yeah I can definitely accept Sora, Elma, Incineroar, and Steve. Assuming they reveal them in twos, that would also match the last Smash Direct's "One third-party, one first party" thing.

Then they'd have to animate a dance and create elaborate animation from scratch

I have no idea what this even means tbh.

gettin' there
need to cover a lot of smash 4 ground though

64 - 3
Melee - 6
Brawl - 6
Smash 4 - 11

So you're thinking a Smash Direct in October with Incineroar and Steve.

Then a Direct in November with Elma and Sora?

Personally I would just have Incineroar be revealed on his own in October and then do a Direct early in November with Elma, Steve, and Sora. With Ken, and Shadow as Echoes and maybe Dixie Kong as an Echo or maybe upgraded Semi Clone. That way we can get 16 characters with 8 original, 6 Echoes, and 2 Semi Clones upgraded from Echoes.

sora is a character, and a good one at that

steve is not a character, and also extremely ugly

I just like that Snake, this ultimate soldier, thinks that taking out his RPG is the quickest option and gets blown away.
