I'm going to be on my way home from class when the Direct is airing lol

The Direct starts at 7AM here, and I have to leave for work at 8. As soon as the length of the direct is announced, I have to make a judgement call about whether I can watch all of it and still get ready for work.

If I can't, it'll be the longest work day of my life.
 
Here's my Smash Bingo card. Went based on the gut, nothing too outlandish, and no dues paid to composition of tiles -- just threw on the first 24 things that came to mind.

In Mewtwo and Olimar's case, yeah at first glance it was a little shocking to see them in the Smash setting, but after 35 seconds everyone got used to them. The people who really question how Ridley would work as far as size, move set, etc I feel barely pay any attention to what's available to us now and in some cases purposely ignore it.

The thing against Ridley in my opinion isn't his strength or size. Unlike most playable characters in this game Ridley's stance and proportions give his body the shape of a really long horizontal rectangle. The only fighting game characters I can recall with a similar body is wolf form Valkenhayn from Blazblue and Amaterasu from MVC3, and they're both wait height compared to most characters in their games.
Still want him in the game, though.
 
ALTS AND PALUTENA PLEASE

Yes. I'd like both, but I'm hoping against hope for alt costumes (although I'm pretty sure I read an interview in which Sakurai specifically said he won't do them because they throw off hit boxes, or some such -- allow me my denial).

Not sure if I'm missing something, or if Sakurai is a samurai?

Samurai is what I call Sakurai in my brain.

There's that male Wii Fit Trainer who doesn't look to be an assist trophy, plus he was revealed on Halloween.
 
Anyone who thinks Ridley Scott is being announced at Smash's big Nintendo Direct is delusional. Expect Pac-Man and Mii and hope for the director of Alien to sneak into the game during a later update.
Brinstar Depth (or it's concept) need to be back. It was so much fun in Melee.
It's be nice if it were remodeled to actually look like Brinstar, with lots of green shrubbery.
 
I'm pretty excited about this, even though its not coming out till next year (Principal Skinner: "Prove me wrong kids! Prove me wrong!"). I love Nintendo Directs cause I watch them on my Chromecast with my kids and they love it as much as I do. It'll make my 4 year old son ask me every day for the next week if this game has come out yet, though.

I'm hoping for some new release info, at least one new guest character or brand new (to smash) reveal, some Final Smashes, some 3ds footage.
 
As pointed out by Tolkir in the Nintendo Downloads thread, Kid Icarus : Uprising is finally getting a DL version in Europe... this Wednesday. It's quite unusual, as new releases from Nintendo usually happens on Thursdays, unless there's something special happening like a Direct or something.

Hmmm....
 
I do 5 Weet-Bix. How many do you do?

Pfft Weet-Bix. Milo Cereal is where it's at.

Palutena it is then!
 
YESSS. Turns out that I go to work an hour later than usual on Wednesday, so I can catch the direct without worrying about getting ready for work on time!

To celebrate, here's an amazing combo from aMSa (the legendary Yoshi player) playing Lucario in Project Melee. I assume Anth0ny has already posted it, but in case he hasn't...

I'm so glad I wasn't the only one watching aMSa's Project M stream thinking about how ridiculously fucking anime PM Lucario is. :lol
 
I doubt Ridley is going to be playable character....
I doubt so too. I also doubt that Ganondorf will get a decent moveset or that the game will be any more balanced than Brawl. For Smash, what you hope for becomes quite different from what you expect.
