The game has 69 playable characters, right? What am I missing?

They're upset their wanted character (likely Isaac) didn't get in. While I'm happy and don't personally care about Isaac (never played Golden Sun), I have to say, the guy's been high in popularity polls from Smash fans so it's questionable why Nintendo relegated him to assist trophy status.

People were hyping it up because of a fake leak.

Only natural for disappointment to follow.

I am. Chrom, Robin, and Corrin shouldn't be in there over Lyn, Eirika, and Leif

Bayonetta doesn't at all deserve to be in there

Smash has to be the only community in the FGC that would get a game with 70 characters and still be pissed.

I just don't get why they would make a Solaire amiibo, then waste a chance to hype up Dark Souls Remastered (which would also boost their online subs) by announcing Solaire just before or after its release. DSR could have used the extra attention after losing so many sales over its delay.

They're also adding characters that nobody ever would have asked for.

I mean, people are allowed to be upset a character they love isn't in. Again, especially a highly requested one. But there's a difference between simply being upset over a character, and calling the game shitty and raging and yada yada. I've seen a few of the latter, and that's when it gets to bby levels.

The roster is going to be fine but the last direct was just awful

Each Smash game is supposed to have a big splash reveal out of left field

Brawl was Sonic
SSB4 was Megaman
SSBU was... Piranha Plant?

This is after a very convincing leak that Banjo-Kazooie might end up being the big splash for this installment.

It just lacked any "wow" factor. An echo fighter and Incineroar (two incredibly safe and bland choices), a shitload of time-padding about options and minor online changes, and then Piranha Plant.

You got fucking Ridley and the Belmonts. Who gives a fuck

You forgot Adventure mode and Spirits, which most of the time was dedicated to I think. I think the Spirits system looked pretty cool, so the Direct was enjoyable.

It was pretty laffy how they bothered pointing out crap like "Hey look you can change your screen brightness and we have a HELP MENU!" Thanks for..the basic shit..?

No I'm saying who cares about the last reveal being insignificant

It's really not that important


People are questioning why the last reveal is a character almost nobody asked for or wanted. The Belmonts or Ridley would have been far better. Ending on Incineroar is lame. You dont blow your load in the beginning.

It's not that I needed any more hype, it's that the final direct managed to lower mine.

Again, still buying the game, still fine with the roster, it just managed to make me less excited.

How does Ridley not count as that? Nobody expected him. Or K. Rool for that matter.

See, if you had said Hector and Ephraim for those FE7/8 reps, I would totally agree with you. But taking out the only two FE characters in Smash that don't use a sword and have a truly unique fighting style... and replacing them with more sword users? What a stupid idea.

How does Ridley not count as that? Nobody expected him. Or K. Rool for that matter.

They're two incredibly iconic villains from two very popular series that would hold zero legal obstacles to make it into Smash.

I'm not saying they're bad additions. They're great. But the point is they aren't a splashy left-field character who nobody expected. You can't deny that Banjo-Kazooie would've been far "splashier" and "hype-r" than Ridley or K. Rool.

Hell I even think if they swapped the 11/1 direct with the K. Rool direct, it would've been more hype. That's I guess what I'm trying to say; they ended on two very bland, boring choices and a random mario enemy (which won't even be ready by launch).
