    Wait what the fuck, why does the music part of the Smash Bros Ultimate site have Vega's stage theme from Street Fighter?

    Edit - Oh my goodness it's so pretty. <3

    Why wouldn't it?

    I like Pokémon Trainer returning.

    But does this mean Charizard has lost either Rock Smash or Flare Blitz?

    Remember the leak that said that all characters were coming back and said that Ridley, snake, and the Ice Climbers would be shown off in the direct also said that Simon Belmont would be announced. I could see that being a rather popular character to announce at the Invitational, just saying...

    Aye, that leak looks legit af. Super hyped. I hope he gets announced.

    I'm going to be genuinely upset it the character select screen is organized in the same order as fighters are listed on the site.

    God, I love all the new versions of Final smashes. Ness and Lucas's finals look so much better just because of the cameos.

    I love the new launch momentum. Looks like it'll speed up matches some by lowering airtime on strong knockback attacks. It'll have to be seen if it messes with combos/strings, but it seems to only really be pronounced when the hit launches you far.

    Seems like air dodges still have a fair amount of landing lag, but that would still be useful. Especially for movement on platforms. Need to see if you can still cancel landing lag by slipping forward off platforms.

    To everyone who shot down my dreams of Ridley in Smash for the past decade+ because "he's too big it would be impossible"...

    Suck on that, nerds

    Yooooo.

    ROB's down-throw now embeds the victim in the ground. (Ref: the character video on the Smash site.)

    I in no way represent the competitive Smash community as a whole, but it seems fine to me. I'm all for making games more accessible, and that was something that I know some new players had issues with. And it's completely a non-issue if they handle it the same way they did with A+B smashes, where you could just turn it off in your controller configuration if you wanted.

    Heh, you need to see Jiggly's final smash in the character video. Now, when she puffs up, she looks angry... and when she deflates, she looks, uh, relieved.

    Ooooh, some character videos have hints of new/returning stages, and a few have new music -- Bowser has a reworked version of his theme from Mario 3.

    I'd imagine Kirby copying Ridley would give him a monster hunter-like Ridley plate helmet since most of the non-humanoid characters he's copied before gave him creepy animal-like pelt hats of like pikachu and jiggs.

    Oh my god, Falco's character video has a fantastic scene in it I won't spoil.

    Basically you need to see ALL the videos.

    You know what? Rather than just drop 'em all in here individually, let me just emphatically recommend going to the fighter gallery at the official Smash site and watching all the videos. Every character's got something new, and there's some interesting tidbits here and there... like Krystal showing up in Fox's video.

    My favorite musical instrument is the air-raid siren.

    I was never a fan of Giga Bowser because he looked too monstrous. Like, it didn't look like something from the Mario universe. Really happy with the new version.

    Ah, sneaky Sakurai, I see how you put the characters from your Kirby games and your Kid Icarus game first in the Brawl series in the character numbers.

    I’m told fourside was visible during the bowser jr part of the direct

    I would guess that every old stage is back

    Given he went bananas with characters, I wouldn't bet against that.

    ...the stage select screen is going to be a gigantic mess, isn't it?

    ZELDA HAS A HILDA COLOR.

    Man. This version of Zelda may be my favorite yet in Smash Bros.

    She's so damn expressive and cheerful.

    It's great that they went with the A Link Between Worlds version, I love that look.

    (although I was secretly hoping for her Hyrule Warriors outfit)

    Gabondorf swords with every Smash attack now, looks like.

    Oh, and Warlock Punch has Super armor all the way through. So either get out of his way or GET PUNCHED.

    The character select screen already will be, so why not stages? This entire game is a gigantic mess -- a gigantic, beautiful mess, as it should be.
