8 minutes. How stoked are you for them to be announcing another 25 versions of Link and Mario?

Waluigi fans must be pissed that their boy didn't get in but the Piranha Plant did.

The Waluigi stuff is so funny to me. Especially with Dan Ryckert being a big fan. Get some good rants on it.

I haven't watched it yet but is Waluigi finally in the game?

You listened to last week's Beastcast? I love just hearing them BS. When they gave Dan shtt for not knowing how to wash dishes. The best 15mins of my life last week.

Bonus pic:

I picked this up from a girl selling masks in downtown BR. She had a Majora's Mask but it looked like shtt.

They didn't need another Pokemon.

Edt: The addition of Piranha Plant is awesome but also weird..

Fckking Piranha Plant

Haven't watch the whole thing yet but the end is pretty cool. Does Kirby survive? So you start out as Kirby in the adventure mode?

There’s something about the piranha plant that’s disappointing but really exciting at the same time

I was saying to a friend of mine the other day that we could eliminate all generic characters because there are none.

I've always been a fan of the Hammer Brother and wanted him to get into the game but didn't think that a generic character would.

Now fricking piranha plant gets into the game

They also said that there would be 5 DLC characters in addition to the Piranha Plant, and I think these 5 have been decided since they’re also getting a stage alongside them. Any Assist Trophy is out of consideration, so here are my best guesses:

1) Rex and Prya
2) Banjo Kazooie
3) Shantae
4) Ray-Man
5) Paper Mario

Rex and Prya, Sakurai directly says the reason they didn’t make the roster is that the roster was established by the time of Xenoblade 2’s release, so these two are guaranteed.

Banjo, it kind of seems like common sense when Microsoft themselves can make a profit. Shantae and the Rabbids are already Spirits, but K Rool is as well, hence Spirits aren’t ruled out for DLC. I think Ray-Man and Shantae will be added along with Rabbids and Ricky Boots Assist Trophies.

Paper Mario is a bit of a shot in the dark, but seems like he could be a natural fit and be very unique from the original Mario.

Rex and Prya could be an interesting style. I wonder if they would be more of a Pokemon Trainer or a Rosalina.

I doubt we see Paper Mario. Im expecting another Squire Enix character at some point.

I didn't think the "Grinch Leek" was absolutely definitive, but I have to admit that Ken and Incineroar being the last 2 character reveals is pretty disappointing. I thought for sure there'd be at least one surprise today.

I think Petey was the surprise. Nobody seemed to be expecting him in the slightest

i bought the entire game plus DLC digital today.

My best guess for DLC characters would be ones that aren’t already in franchise or VERY obscure. I say this because they mention the multiple music tracks and to me, that pretty much rules out most Xenoblade characters since there’s already a shite ton of tracks available for that franchise across the games.

Banjo makes sense purely because nothing from the stages to the music or character design and moveset has been touched on by any measure in Smash Ultimate. As well as the fact that they aren’t a spirit character either as far as we’ve been shown. Characters like Elma, Skull Kid (already deconfirmed but just as an example) and others that are prominent in their respective franchise certainly warrant consideration, but the criteria given rules them out pretty easily.


So, Banjo makes sense first of all. Sora, as much as I hate it, is next in line. Ryu Hayabusa in my opinion makes sense as well. A really big one in my opinion that’s fairly recent is YorHa Unit 2B. Music is incredible, the stage potential is there, and the character is very well received for...probably all the wrong reasons.


Ones that I’d say that are at least 3rd party for sure that are long shots though are Doomslayer and Geralt to name a few.


So there you have mine. Some sound a bit off the wall, but considering what Sakurai laid out, I’d say that those are closer to fact than fiction.

I don’t see why you can rule out Rex and Prya. Sakurai specifically mentions them in the presentation on why they didn’t make it. They’ll just come with a stage from Xenoblade 2. Music doesn’t mean crap, since in the last game the DLC characters only got like 2 songs a piece.

I hope not. I’d like to think he’d throw franchises a bone that are helping Nintendo. Cloud is an exception, but maybe FFVII coming to the Switch was already in the cards when he was released in Smash 4.

Rex and Banjo are in I think.

I think a Square Enix character makes it simply due to the ports next year. And I really want it to be "Black Mage" or something like that. Would be a great send up.

I think Waluigi is going to be a DLC character, probably in that first pack, and I think we get Ribbon Girl as well.

I think you can rule out Assist Trophies becoming fighters.
