Sakurai you madman!

Just went full Keynesian economics on the roster. No cuts, and add all you can.

Anyone else worried we might get less than 10 or even 7 newcomers this time around? I mean having all characters back is great and all but in reality only 3 mattered, IC, Snake and Wolf, not many people cared for the rest. I think that's it for Geno, 3rd parties tend to get revealed at E3 so I doubt he is in. Same for Sora(Although that didn't have much of a chance of happening anyway).
I think we'll hit 70 chars or so before DLC and I'd be fine with that. Everything looks incredible. A lot of characters have got some kinds of rework.

Can't wait to fire up Smash for Wii U again and do some directional air dodges with Ridley

Don't bother, they will now change to "they're just lying like they did with Splatoon 2" nonsense.

Are we really doing this here? Seriously?

Turbo is a new game compared to Hyper Fighting.

I will actually argue this.
Let's agree that this is a new game in the same vein as Hyper Fighting to Turbo. It's still Street Fighter II at the end of the day.
Ok, what has to happen for you to accept this is not a port? Because it seems like you are so headstrong determined that when Smash 6 is announced, you will scream port as well.
I have to watch gameplay and immediately be able to discern it's a new game like all the other Super Smash Bros. titles.

User warned for trolling
Wait, this is a port? Lmao - knew it.

Can I download a character update patch to my Wi U version of this?

who the fuck cares if it's a new game or an enhanced port, it's been four years since the last one. This is not like a Street Fighter revision that comes one year after the original game. Jesus Christ.

I think it looks great. I'm super happy for the Melee vets finally returning. I couldn't believe they added Ridley. They finally fuckin' did it, the madmen.
I'm most hyped for Daisy.

Any chance for more newcomers? I seriously need Rex and the awesome tracks of XC2 in Smash. And a Mor Ardain stage.

One of the low-key best parts: Pokemon Trainer is back without the horrible stamina gimmick.

Already preordered. I love love love the fact that the entire roster argument/speculation is sidestepped. Looks fun as shit with the mechanical changes.

I'm at the hospital since I just had a heart attack during Smash trailer.

Man, the announcements are so amazing that I'm so happy that we finally got Snake, Wolf, Pokemon Trainer, Young Link, Pichu, Ice Climbers and no cut. Also we are getting many old stages back as well so I was so ecstatic about it. I hope that Gamer would come back as well. *cross my fingers*

Trailer was just perfect. ITS PERFECT!

It's a port with characters brought back and 2 new ones. It is literally the same game as Wii U but with a balance/gameplay patch.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has new characters, an entirely new mode and a new mechanic - port
Smash ULTIMATE has a couple new characters, a new mechanic - totally new game
latest

not really seeing this logic that it's not a port.

This reveal definitely surpassed my expectations! Ridley looks amazing to play as. I can't wait to get my hands on this game.

For now, I have to go back to sleep. I wonder if there will be something new in the morning?

So has anyone combed through the videos to see changes? I've already gone through every character video and listed the changes I noticed to my friends in Discord

I'm surprised so many people are upset. I honestly thought everyone would be hyped because all of the characters are coming and we're getting Ridley as one of the newbies to boot.

I'm very happy to be able to play as Pichu and Young Link again.

At first glance it looks like Wii U but the character vids showcase a lot of new animations and moves. Nearly everything characters do is familiar but animated slightly differently.
