...and here’s yesterday’s Direct, which is what prompted me to see if we had a thread for this game yet:
SIMON, BABY!!! My most-wanted character ever since third parties in Smash became a thing! I’m as excited about Simon alone as I was about “EVERYONE IS HERE!”; whatever they do with this game beyond this is gravy as far as I’m concerned. Also congrats to everybody who felt the same way about K. Rool. Richter, Chrom and Dark Samus are less exciting, but still welcome additions. (If third party echoes are a thing now, we’d better get Ken.) New Donk City stage is expected, but still nice to see. Yay for Shovel Knight, boo that he’s just an assist trophy and not playable. Also, I really like that they’re giving us the option to have Final Smashes work off a meter instead of the dumb smash ball.
