I thought it was going to be Mewtwo....

so did i

i thought shadow ball was coming

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

Greninja killed GAF

 

[Whompa]

Those reveals felt weak. Still the rest of the content is friggen fantastic.

 

[dehydratedbabies]

I thought it was going to be Mewtwo....

You and me both. I don't even like Greninja that much but fuck that was an awesome reveal.

 

[Heroman]

These games are going to break me.

 

[_woLf]

I wish we'd get as many freaking characters from other Nintendo franchises as Pokemon does in Smash Bros games. :/

 

[vareon]

Sakurai and Palutena trolling killed GAF.

Should have realized it. No bigger troll than those two.

 

[Niraj]

I thought it was going to be Mewtwo....

I did too

 

[tauroxd]

Greninja killed GAF

Indeed.

 

[commanderpepper]

Damn damn damn. That was... damn.

 

[Cloud Strife]

Greninja? Shit!

 

[LOLDSFAN]

That was insane. My body was definitely not ready.

 

[Jeff Vader]

I saw Greninja and that made everything worth it.

 

[The Xtortionist]

For Glory needs a 2v2 option (with party system) so bad.

 

[Air Zombie Meat]

We're back? That was awesome. Game looks so good.

 

[Sadist]

Great Direct.

Based Sakurai troll with that pseudo Palutena troll

Charizard and Greninja in makes me go hnnngg

Zero Suit Samus looks pretty awesome.

 

[BlackJace]

I passed out.

Sakurai tha GOD.

 

[braves01]

mah ninja

 

[Jethro]

Kremlings are back!

 

[Porcile]

Sakurai's trolling throughout was masterful.

 

[Mlatador]

WHY IS SAKURAI SUCH A BOSS!!?!?!?!

 

[Beats]

Goddamn, that delivered.

 

[DAREALGUMMY]

THAT TROLL WITH PSEUDO PALUTENA

I laughed my ass off

 

[vgamer1]

Very sick of pokes.

 

[Philippo]

DAMMIT SAKURAI WHY WON'T YOU PUT IN A XENOBLADE STAGE AND SHULK AS A PLAYABLE CHARACTER

 

[CorvoSol]

Until that Pokemon trailer began I was like "Wow Yoshi basically is the only character "announced.""

Gettin' real worried about Snake's chances now, haha.


FUCK YES MEGA CHARIZARD!!

 

[Linkhero1]

Lmao Palutena? Not on Sakruai's watch!

 

[Litri]

This has been probably the best direct of the last 2 years, HOLY F**K!

 

[dehydratedbabies]

I don't know what to do with all of this hype I feel right now. I need to find a rapper.

 

[OminousShadow]

Man that entire part with Greninja, Mega lucario and Charizard was amazing.

 

[?oe?oe]

This was a great Direct though.

 

[Astorgh]

Dat Ridley tease...

 

[diaspora]

Goddamn, buying both versions day 1. I'm heading out to preorder them tomorrow.

 

[Subtervotion]

WOW. That was fucking awesome. Hyped as shit right now.

Sheik, Greninja, Zero Suit Samus. The only thing I want now is Ike to come back. Or a fighter based on his moveset.

 

[Hero]

Sakurai trolled us once with the Zero Suit Samus and then again with the Fake Palutena trophy.

She MUST be in this game.

Also awesome video for Charizard plus Greninja.

 

[Jagsrock]

AMAZING. Mind Blown, hands down the best direct and that end cutscene was so slick. I thought grenija was mewtwo for a second their ;/ but he still looks awesome. Very pleased so far. I like the that they took out transformations and added custom movesets.
Also dat Zero Suit Samus.

 

[kuroneko0509]

Sakurai trolling level is too high

 

[Grakl]

charizard is the best pic ever, and dammit so is greninja, look so fun

#pokemonbros

 

[Rulp]

After this, Mario Kart 8, 3D World, Pikmin 3, and Bayonetta 2 coming, I can actually say with some confidence that I am interested in Nintendo again.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

I feel like the craziest thing is that we have a pretty good idea that Sakurai reads what fans want and think and is out to troll them

Also this

 

[Zetta]

Throwing money at the screen isn't working!!!!! Wow that was amazing. That Mega Man Smash.................

 

[FlynnCL]

Greninja is an awesome newcomer with tons of potential. Charizard on his own was something that needed to be done, I believe; the specific gimmicks of Pokemon Trainer made them all so much worse.

There's not gonna be a "outrage-for-no-Mewtwo-reveal 2" is there?

 

[Chiramii]

THAT TROLL WITH PSEUDO PALUTENA

I lost it at that point

 

[Chucker]

I just need somebody to tell me Ness will be here. That's all.

 

[Speedwagon]

Lmao Palutena? Not on Sakruai's watch!

Can't reveal hidden characters before the game's released.

ALSO GRENINJA OMG

 

[Sails]

The Final Destination version of all maps is pointless. Final Destination is too polarizing for matchups in a game like Smash. This is the reason it was banned in almost every tournament Brawl set and is also generally played only in Teams for Melee. They should have had it be Battlefield versions as well, at least.

 

[Boss Doggie]

While my favorite starter is Chesnaught I still respect Greninja. Awesome reveal.

I laugh at people who only see characters as "franchise reps" than characters themselves. Yawning at "Oh Pokemon" rather than "holy shit frog ninja with awesome moves and fighting abilities"

 

[Freezie KO]

That delivered for me. Online is a clear priority. Two modes (competitive and casual) plus customizable friend games. Smash 3DS in Summer. Updates on characters like Olimar. New 3DS game mode. Updates on transforming characters. ZSS, Sheik, Yoshi, and Charizard confirmed. New playable Pokémon thing.

Great direct.

 

[upandaway]

that charizard
that greninja

too much

it's too much sakurai

 

[Isotope]

That was pretty good.
