Skull kid and Saki (sin and punishment former assist trophy) have Mii costumes. The skull kid is now the clothes, not just the mask.

Favorite meme out of the direct:
[h=1]♫ Bear this Torchic in the cold of the night ♫[/h]

Meta Knight has a new final smash.
It's a multi-hit slash.
-
Other tidbits I've found:
! in classic mode, Ryu's stages are all omega and play with Stamina. Round 1 vs. Ken but round 2 is ZSS with Chun-Li's theme playing.
! Pichu has a spiky-eared alt.
! Nia is also a mii costume. (from XB2)
! There's a Nintendo (console) themed city on the World of Light map.all alternate costumes.

Well, there was a full-ish menu exploration, gamexplain has it but:
Blue mode is only classic, mob battle and training. Only hope it is in world of light
Speaking of wich, in the green mode, spirits, there is the six winged ball thing mode and the spirit board, where you go and fight spirit battles with a selection of 8 opponents.
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
Another thing reported, the comic has 8 pages in one of those things, with a current total of 124 challenges.
-
Interestingly in World of Light Red uses a Lapras(?) spirit to cross a body of water, but in another part Rathalos is flying across the map.
-
Monster hunter style, monsters don't get self destructive until the last sliver of health, once you prove yourself to be a danger, they run away. Rathalos probably needs to be fought a few times.
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
Nia's spirit battle is a Mii brawler with her costume, and a small Incineroar as Dromarch.
-
You can evolve certain Spirits; Naked Snake turns into Big Boss.
-
The two tiers of spirits, the main ones grow and can evolve, but the smaller ones are simpler, don't need to grow.

Ok, I'm finally over analysis mode, I also got some dissapointment out of the direct. While Ken, Incineroar and the Plant I'm ok with, I already went over the grieving process for Isaac, I'm actually attracted to the spirit stuff (I did read up every trophy, but rarely moved them around or did the diorama thing, and I'm a collect-a-holic, I will manage some engagement with a name and a game, but I'd still like the descriptions), and in europe I can manage to make the online work, thing that would have been impossible in my previous residence, but this game has to be compared to those that came before.
No personalized bonus stage, it is 70+ figthers after all. Classic has been shaping up more to an homage to the source game (With Ryu going full Street Fighter, Shulk probably getting to figth Pit, Megaman, ROB and Himself, or Snake and Sonic being enemies for some reason) rather than something like skullgirls where they set up the fights to showcase the figthers strengths and weaknesses.
No smash run +.
Revamped All Stars is just supped up 100KO mode, I'd guess it's the original intention for the mode, and just now it is possible to load all the fighters into a stage? On the other hand this looks more streamlined than having to do it 70+ times for it's comic panel.
I never got too much fun out of home run contest tho, I just got it done and moved on, but it feels like a shame to lose it.
What I'm losing, vs what I'm missing, vs what I'm getting still leave me at the hype side of the equation.
-
Spirits has a lot of potential due to the sheer creativity that one can already do with existing assets.
Having the Imprisoned from Skyward Sword be an enlarged, black-colored K. Rool that doesn't move yet is assisted by a Ghirahim AT is quite amazing. Can't wait to see all scenarios.
-
Yeah, most of the fights have been at least "oh, neat". Also I laugh at the lack of square enix content. Cloud is the target possession of Zeke (Xenoblade Chronicles 2) and that's it. 2 beers and a bag of chips indeed.
Also, relevant:
-
As of this game Pokemon is the first series to have reps in the double digits (if you count Pkmn Trainer as 3)
-
As spoiler as a menu artwork can be. Some more adventure bosses.
! Look at Rathalos and Tabu Core's friends. Bosses? A castlevania werewolf, the king bublin and his mount, and a Bayoneta 2 boss called Balder.

!! I wonder if Werewolf and King Bulbin are supposed to be actual bosses or if this part of the menu also shows stage hazards?
I'm thinking this because we already have Dracula as a Castlevania boss. Could it have 2 bosses? (Would be cool if it could. Wouldn't be surprised since Rathalos is also an assist trophy.)
! Father Balder as a Bayonetta boss is cool too. That series has some of the most satisfying boss battles I've played. -

! By the way, Tabu Core's real name was revealed to be Galeem. Kira in the Japanese version. -
Ok now sources say Roy IS english voiced??

MGW has a new side-B now. Instead of a bucket he drops bombs.
EDIT: Nevermind it's a f-air.
-
Out of all music, aparently there are less than 200 unlockable.
Also, figthers have a "spirit" as well, but these are just collectible, not useable.
-
Naked Snake and Major Ocelot look like they were taken out of the Snake Eater Pachinko cutscenes.
That abomination was finally good for something.
-
I am apparently the only one all about playing Piranha plant. I love it.
Sucks that its DLC though.
-
I eagerly await tournaments where Piranha Plant sweeps.
Piranha Plant is love, Piranha Plant is life.

@Cyan:

I was going to say what the meme….and then I remembered that was the Castlevania pachinko game :ninja:

It only sucks if you're super late in getting the game. It's free otherwise.
Or is this about it coming out later after the game is released?
-
It's free up until Jan 31 iirc
-
This post is deleted!

In the classic demo there seemed to be something, either a classic coupon or coins changing, I'd recommend taking a look at that video as I was focused on the beauty that is the new difficulty selection slider. It is a large horizontal banner that starts peaceful and becomes more combative as you go closer to 9

Ah, it's pre-order DLC rather than post-release DLC. Still lame DLC but that's somewhat better.
-
At first I was like Piranha Plant are you fucking kidding me!?! Out of all the characters they decide to go with a regular enemy minion?!?
then I saw him in the game play and now I'm like….. man I can't wait to play as Piranha Plant
-
Yeah, as much as Piranha Plant makes me salty for getting in before a dozen more deserving Mario reps (Waluigi, Geno, Captain Toad, Paper Mario, etc…), I can't hate this adorable photosynthetic idiot. Plus his moveset contains a TTYD reference and that makes me a happy photosynthetic idiot.
-
I still feel weird about it, but it's still kind of amusing.
My stance is that the single player and online are disappointing, but the roster is inarguably one of the best fighting game rosters ever despite the lack of certain key absences.
-
Kinda need to see Kirby doing darkest lariat.
-
What will Kirby wear after eating Piranha Plant?
-
Let's get through He-Kirby, 90's anime kirby, Sanrio Kirby, Pink eye Kirby, Dark Kirby, Isekai Kirby, Dragon Kirby, Lucha Cat Kirby, Princess Kirby the third and Squid (or Kid) Kirby first. Oh, and Ken Kirby.

From Sakurai's official twitter. https://twitter.com/Sora_Sakurai
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s DLC line-up is now complete. This time the selection was made entirely by Nintendo. I decide if we can create a fighter based on their selection, then come up with the plan.
It’s great to dream about your favorite character joining the battle and I appreciate your passion, but please try to stay on topic when replying to tweets and refrain from flooding us, and other users, with requests when we're not specifically asking for feedback. Thank you!
-
Huh. I thought they were only starting to get into this after December 6th.
-
It says by Nintendo, so it makes me suspect more straightforward and less unconventional choices.
-
I'm surprised we will be getting corporate choices, that makes that one leak (of Minecraft, square, and the other gacha from the dragalia company) disturbingly possible. But also leans to a gen8 and fe16 characters to line up with those games
-
Oh, how magnificent this seventh day of the eleventh month.
-
huge breakdown.
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
Also Nintendo confirmed the feather in G&W's fsmash will be removed
[hide]
[/hide] -
A few of the choices are bound to be promotional for new games. Unfortunately this drastically lowers the chance for more joke characters
-
-
The spirit count is around 400 according to GX. That is both neat and terrifying.
-
I'm just going to go ahead and assume all DLC characters will be stupid, which leaves me in the spot where it's time to get more hyped about the current roster.
Got a conservative idea of the ones I'd like to use already:!
Top four I'm using for sure no matter what. The rest I really want to try out due to liking them in Smash 4 or being interesting new additions. Of course though, I want to try everyone.
Link if anyone wants to make theirs:
https://apps.warchamp7.com/smash/rosterUlt/Cue five people making rosters of just piranha plant.
-
Here's my pre-emptive list:
[hide][/hide]
I did the same thing as Nephy. Honestly, all the new additions are on my 'want to try list', but I didn't want to throttle this website's bandwidth with a massive image a full several more character panels in size, so I limited it to the most important.
-
-

Stupid as in shouldn't be in the game or stupid as in gag characters? Because I doubt it'll be the latter.
-
Stupid as "corporate mandate" or "flavorless because they were chosen by aliance and comite, and not fan request or moveset potential"
Anyways: I lost mine and I'm currently struggling against image hosting sites, so my planed mains are:
Ness!!
Ice Climbers!!
Mr. Game & Watch!!
Toon Link!!
Megaman!!
Richter!! -
The idea i've seen is that the DLC characters will be more current to promote titles - similar to Corrin and Bayonetta. But it's not like we can get a good grasp from the first reveal either way.
At the very worst - hey, more songs and stages to jam to.
