I know. I'm saying it's amazing how they can pretend this is what got them off the Smash train when they weren't on it at all.

So here's the inevitable question: was "Everyone is here!" worth only getting 6 newcomers in the base roster?
I honestly don't know which is worth more to me, vets or newcomers. Such a tough choice.
The singleplayer stuff doesn't really appeal to me, I don't really have any people I can play local multiplayer with, the online format I pretty much exclusively used in Smash 4 is gone and even trophies are out. I'd spend hours reading through them learning about Nintendo IPs and characters I wasn't even aware of.This thread has shown the disconnect between ultra-hardcore gamers and the masses.
Ultimate has an INSANE amount of content. Much of it NEW content. Every part of the game has been retouched. Several long Directs were required to show everything...and there's still secrets to be found.
Yet, somehow, you're disappointed because a bunch of characters that the average gamer doesn't remember or are unrealistic to expect aren't in the launch roster. And the single player mode isn't a whole other unique game. And you have to earn your way into the hardcore online mode.
Fun, value, and polish don't matter to you - just fanboying, and things that are the literal definition of nitpicking.
This game will sell a ton and everybody will love it...except you. -_-
Well, I'm a man of my word. Pretty disappointed in the direct. I wasn't fully expecting Grinch-levels of awesomeness, but I was hoping at least one hype character was in, of any kind. I don't think any of the new characters are hype at all (not to say they're bad, but no one is going to get excited if you tell them a Piranha Plant is in the game). Oh well.Alright Team Real fuckers, it's time to change your avatars till Dec 1st

"Damn yeah, I'm as disappointed as you guys, this didn't work too well as the final Smash Direct, oh well..."
Part of me wishes that Geno was confirmed as an AT, because now I'm stuck in the DLC hype train until potentially 02/2020. My soul needs a break.
Adventure mode just seems like classic mode with spirits, I hope there's platforming.
Agreed. I think some people have really gotten carried away with the idea of who can/should be in Smash.
Defeated.Alright Team Real fuckers, it's time to change your avatars till Dec 1st

I mean, the fact we haven't seen a single spirit of a playable character just reeks to me. Yes, they're a super easy implementation, but that doesn't mean they're not carefully considered.Spirits, like stickers before them, are literally just whatever spare promo art they had lying around. I can gurantee you they aren't paying attention to what they used for those to rule out characters.
I'm gonna say yes. A lot of the returning vets were characters people voted a lot for.So here's the inevitable question: was "Everyone is here!" worth only getting 6 newcomers in the base roster?
I honestly don't know which is worth more to me, vets or newcomers. Such a tough choice.
This would have been a m a z i n g .it would have been cool if Pirahna Plant had a super expensive CG trailer too
or like... if there was a pirahna plant hiding in the background of all previous trailers
With so many highly requested characters being deconfirmed by ATs or Spirit Mode (ugh), what 5 characters are they actually going to create for DLC?
It's possible to be genuinely excited for the game and plan to play it for hours upon hours and still be disappointed in a lackluster direct that was focused mostly on Gatcha.
I know. I'm saying it's amazing how they can pretend this is what got them off the Smash train when they weren't on it at all.
I actually don't think Spirits Mode deconfirms characters being DLC. Mewtwo and Lucas had regular trophies in Smash 4 and they ended up as DLC.

Yeah, I was pulling for Isaac, but I will gladly just take some remixes. Your Shiekah Tower comment now wants me to have just GS music on rotation there.I think he's got a shot! As does Elma.
Isaac is stuck in AT land forever. ;_; (it's okay though)
Hey can we still just get Isaac's theme in the game? I think that's really what everyone wanted anyway.
This game was "thrown together last minute"?I mostly enjoyed the Direct. I didn't believe the leak, so I wasn't expecting that many more characters. The Spirit mode is a little too Gacha-y. Now that Nintendo opened that Pandoras Box, I guess we're stuck with Gacha. But the single player mode looks like a lot of fun! Leave it to Sakurai to make things even Kirbyer.
It was a bit disappointing that trophies got replaced with stickers, but I appreciated Sakurais honesty about the development costs for building all those models. Honestly, I feel bad for Sakurai. This game was clearly thrown together sort of last minute, and he's trying really hard to appease the hardcore fanbase. But they'll never be happy.
Wait.
WAIT.
Famicom Tantei Club and Xenoblade still have a chance as DLC! Ayumi and KOS-MOS. LET'S GO!
Dixie is a spiritI imagine we're getting more third party picks. Insofar as first party (assuming spirits and costumes disqualify you) I haven't seen Dixie, Elma, Min Min, or Chorus Kids.
You say gacha, I say top notch fan service. You should be grateful and PUMPED to have all those obscure (including tons of third-party) references in a single game. And they're more useful now than the tedious trophy room.
Incineroar is not even a really popular pokemon, there were so many better gen VII options.Are you seriously saying that Pikmin and Xenoblade are more mainstream and hype than Ken, of Street Fighter and Incineroar, a freaking Pokemon?
LOL.The constant thing every game where people take the last game as gospel, before everything changes, has amused me since Brawl.
"It's only Nintendo characters"
"Kept you waiting, huh?"
"It's only one character per 3rd Party"
"Ryu enters the battle"
"Generic enemies will never be playable"
"Piranha Plant joins the fight"
So here's the inevitable question: was "Everyone is here!" worth only getting 6 newcomers in the base roster?
I honestly don't know which is worth more to me, vets or newcomers. Such a tough choice.
yeah, I still think ATs are probably off the table for DLC but Spirits don't seem like nearly as big a dealI actually don't think Spirits Mode deconfirms characters being DLC. Mewtwo and Lucas had regular trophies in Smash 4 and they ended up as DLC.
