Captain Falco. The new type of clone called a combi-clone!

 

[superjon]

Sakurai has activated my hype.

 

[ffdgh]

Don't do this to me sakurai...My heart can't take it.

If theres nothing smash related in the direct.....

 

[Kjellson]

My prediction: New trailer, but no new characters shown.

 

[daripad]

Let's see

Wii Fit Trainer
Pokemon Trainer

I think we have a pettern here

Pokemon Trainer confirmed today!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't be silly, this sets the proper tone.

 

[KRoTH]

Ok guys, let's think about this logically.

Olimar has been in both daily pics the day of a nintendo direct, obviously he's the constant here, signifying that there's going to be a character reveal.

Now in the first pic, it was olimar and kirby, with a luigi reveal.
Considering that olimar is the constant, we're led to believe that the correlation is between kirby and luigi.

Notice how they have the same amount of letters in their name:
K I R B Y
L U I G I

Now, in today's pic we have olimar and wii fit trainer, if we apply the same formula to this image:
W I I F I T T R A I N E R
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

13 letters, now, the fact that it's a newcomer with olimar instead of a veteran like last time, means that this reveal is either going to be linked to an unnanounced game or not even linked to a game at all.

Who fits this criteria?

C A P T A I N F A L C O N

Captain falcon confirmed, it's basic science! You can thank me all later.

And of course, I have work at 10 AM.

I suppose I'll look forward to the video after my boss leaves early today.

 

[nintendoman58]

I got Xenoblade music playing in the background. I have to jinx Shulk being in this with all my might!

 

[podracer35]

Fusions in team battles.... There's an idea I could get behind.

 

[IntelliHeath]

DIRECT! SAKURAI! SSB4!

My prediction: New trailer, but no new characters shown.

I'm fine with trailer! I would love to see them in action again with those announced characters.

 

[BGBW]

Since people are posting music link have one that is in no way a subtle hint as to who is going to be revealed,

 

[Regulus Tera]

IT IS TIME

 

[MrSaturn99]

Sakurai tweeted about the Direct? Hmm...

Wha the heck, hype time. EEEEEE!!!!

also that screenshot is awesome why don't you people love it

 

[Diddy Kong]

He Retweeted!! It's going down!!!!!

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

IT IS TIME

I wish it was so.

 

[Richie]

My good fellows, please save me from falling prey to savage hype; tweeting Directs is a common habit for Sakurai? Or is there precedent of him only doing so when there are Smash-related news?

it's the combination of the late picture (with no US post) that seals the announcement hype for me. Last time the same thing happened and we got Luigi.

 

[Song of the Turtle]

Since people are posting music link have one that is in no way a subtle hint as to who is going to be revealed,

Back in the days, this was one of my favourite tracks. Still love it <3

But we all know what kind of music will play in the background.

 

[Regulus Tera]

I wish it was so.

After the troll with Saki in Brawl, I have low expectations. ;_;

 

[ahm998]

It's sonic time because the release date for his game soon.

 

[SenorArdilla]

Double update maybe? Maye?

 

[IntelliHeath]

My good fellows, please save me from falling prey to savage hype; tweeting Directs is a common habit for Sakurai? Or is there precedent of him only doing so when there are Smash-related news?

He only tweet when he is going to show his games. He didn't even retweet last Direct or three direct ago.

From what I remembered he retweeted E3 2012 (after e3 direct where they announced Nacmo-Bandai working with Sakurai) and E3 2013.

Double update maybe? Maye?

After I saw english version of miiverse, my hype went down. I'm scared now!

[foxuzamaki]

I went to sleep early so I can wake up for today's direct, so I didnt see last night's daily pic

 

[friskykillface]

c-c-can we have a bet that isnt an avatar? <

 

[ShockingAlberto]

No

 

[BGBW]

How about an avatar bet with a twist. If Mii is announced you have to change your NNID Mii to a Mii of my choice.
