Sakurai already said that there will be more characters. However Ridley, King K Rool, and Simon Belmont were honestly all the ones I wanted.

-
Sakurai lied (or there was a mistranslation) he claimed 103 stages, but monster hunter stage is not in the stage select, and with that one its 104.
-
Great stuff from that direct.
I am glad about the new characters (even the echoes) and the new modes presented.
Still no deconfirmation of my dream pick. My Golden Sun unrealistic hope of rep is alive.
The wait will be very long.
-
After the leak I kind of wanted Trevor and Julius, or a koopalings style for the four beltmons.
-
Simon, K. Rool and Ridley are in Smash. We're done, we don't need more, this is already perfect.
… still want that Dixie echo tho...
-
The DDD->Krool troll was.. Beautiful.
-
I think the most important takeaways from this Direct:
-The crucifixion is canon in the Nintendoverse
-Luigi is dead for real and nobody can bring him back -

Good to see King K Rool finally get his shine, and the Castlevania guys as well.
Chrom got his due, but Walugi is still forgotten.
-
I'd play that game where you as Luigi haunt people.
-
Really happy with these picks tbh.
I wonder what's that green censored mode, it had the image of a boat…..? -
I need to watch it a few times more.
The site is in the middle of the update, people in twitter post screenshots of the stage detail screen.
-
Weird, just realized that Chrom is an echo of Roy, not of Ike.

Really? I could've sworn I saw Chrom using something like Aether.
Gotta rewatch it to double check.EDIT: He uses both Aether and the Dancing Blade thing? You're right too, other than Aether, the rest of his moveset doesn't match Ike at all. Echo Fighters can have different moves!
Personally, I love that the Moon is a goddamn assist trophy.
-
I can't think of anymore fighters to be excited for honestly. Maybe the next pokemon rep, but as for me I am satisfied.

Oh and Toad as a playable character.

I noticed Pirate Ship and Brinstar Depths alongside Fountain of Dream, so I'm content stage-wise now.
-
The site as well list 103 stages, but lacks the monster hunter one.
And while items, pokemon and assist trophies claim "many more", stages makes no such promise.
Granted at this point I only want an alolan stage, but it is weird this inconsistency.

@Bond:

Being an Echo seems pointless now.
Personally, I love that the Moon is a goddamn assist trophy.
Does this means my friend Skull Kid will not be in?

This post is deleted!

fountain of dreams is back bby

Subspace return perhaps?

Official site now has the stage and item section unlocked

I lost PAC maze so I must insult sakurai now even if I only played on it like 4 times voluntarily.
In the end the stages discarded were:
Mushroom kingdom melee as the 64 one was better (marginally)
Icicle mountain as while apropiate it was a pain
Zebes and sector z as their melee cousins were better
Pokefloats because it was made as a last minute sprint
Miiverse because fuck moderating the internet
The flat zones and pictochats because why have more than one?
Mute city melee and rainbow road 3ds.I'm ok with the first one not with the second one.
Jungle falls and hijinxs are out.
Orbital gate assault is out as well.
Wholly world and pyrosphere.And that's the cuts, I think.
-
Umpopular opinion, but I would have prefered the Simon with Light Yagami's head attached to his torso.
-
He said Rathalos appears as a boss … but not a stage boss. Story mode hint IMO (especially considering the rathalos stage is a bland flat plain).
That is an interesting theory, let's wait and see..
-
if you listen closely, Ritcher is voiced by David Vincent (Robin's VA)
-
BTW, the "how to smash" section has the modes revealed, and has space for the missing stuff.
Phone cache didn't let me see the site, now I can, thanks for the screenshot metamario!
-
no problem !
-
Wait, chrom is a Roy echo? Poor chrom.
-
The website actually just shows all the stages under the stages section now. Looks like all 103 are accounted for on it.
Edit: Whoops, I was still on the last page of this thread when I posted. Looks like everyone ever figured that out already.
-
Dracula also had the bit about appearing as a boss "under specific conditions"
I'm expecting a single player mode where bosses appear on stages now
-
Classic mode seems to be 64-based, in that it's the same each time for each character.
but everyone has different opponents.
-
I am really hoping that the fact that Assist Trophies have hitboxes factors into whatever big single player experience they may be working on.
-
This is the best thing to happen to Chrom since he got the lucky chance to be Lucina's dad.
-
Seems like Echo Fighters can borrow from more than one character, but otherwise have nothing unique on their own besides a Final Smash.
Dixie could reasonably work as a Diddy Echo with DK's Up-B.
-
All my dream fighter are in! Well… Not all.
Fawful, Ultimate needs you! -
I had to check to make sure, but the big banner of characters did get minor adjustments. So there were no big spaces in between for the 5 characters we just got. And there's no space in the current one either, so be ready for a Version 3.0 of the banner in the future with every character.
Simon is the character I never knew I wanted, and Monster Hunter out of nowhere? I won't get my hopes up on the Hunter as a character because making the moveset would probably take a while.
That stage select screen is way too overwhelming lol. On handheld every stage is going to be a pixel.

Sakurai literally had to sell two of his major organs to get this game and it's 800 fucking songs made.

I can't wait for the hype music on Omega Hanenbow.

If that 103 number is definitive as for the base game, I'm starting to think that no new franchise is coming to the game before DLC. For example, I don't think Rayman would come without a stage.
There are room for 6 new stages with that layout (not saying it's a hint but if it ever happens that's convenient).
Since we seem to be getting quite a few echo characters and since Chrom showed that an echo can be more different than I thought (borrowing moves from multiple characters for example) my expectation list changed.
I'm thinking we could get : Isabelle (Villager), Dixie (Diddy + DK), Jeanne (Bayonetta), Shadow (Sonic), Black Shadow (Captain Falcon), Ken (Ryu), Octoling (Inkling), Impa (Sheik), Louie (Olimar) and if my dream comes true Felix (Isaac).
For Dixie, she would share most of her moves with Diddy (change the B special to be a bubble gum gun) except her Up+B special and Final Smash that would look like Donkey Kong's (hair instead of punch).
For some of the others like Ken, I think it would require the Final Smash to be completely different (but I think that's the case with Dark Pit so it's possible).
-
I love Sakurai, I don't need anything else.
The remaining reveals can be whatever, I am 100% content now after the Castlevania and K.Rool reveals (and the music and stages).
-
In the second viewing of the video, during the tracks section:
The miscelaneous tracks has 97 songs, there were a bunch of other highlighted.
Mario got 2 separated icons, my guess is either normal and retro or main series and spinoffs/kart
In the main music menu was an option called "voices", I wonder if it's a language togle for the speaking characters or just the sound test.Also, I'll play in english for Xander Mobious, but the filthy imperial system better be keept out of this fine game! We measure power in Cavendishes and distance in meters, and that's how we like it!
