Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

I always imagined a hypothetical Spiral Mountain stage having a smash taunt with Bottles. Anyone else think there's a chance now?
 
Was I the only one confused when they showed all the Dragon Quest peeps? I guess the others are alts.
Banjo's great looking, don't know anything about him but looks to be quite the fun character.
As the only person who wanted Steve from Minecraft on here...I'm good. The guys we got were incredible (and far more requested than Steve).

Seeing Nintendo just make two fanbases happy really gives me high hopes.

Oh wait
> Reggie: Characters you will not expect in Smash will be the DLC
I respect the result but I feel Reggie pretty much eats his words.
 
I just hope that thanks to Ultimate, K. Rool (and even possibly Banjo and Kazooie) start appearing in more Mario spinoffs. My heart would explode if they were announced for Mario Kart 9. K. Rool is somewhat likely (we got Funky Kong already), but because of Diddy Kong Racing, you can maaaaaaaybeeeeeeeee conclude that Banjo-Kazooie takes place in the same universe as Super Mario, and it would be great to get that confirmation.

This would then mean that Conker's Bad Fur Day also takes place in the Marioverse, thus making Conker the Mario equivalent of R-rated Deadpool.

I was underwhelmed, but I'm glad that other people are happy. Honestly nothing so far has beaten Cloud's SSB4 reveal for me. Even Ridley, whose reveal I thought was awesome but somewhat predictable.
 
Not Ephraim.

But I'm still very happy. Banjo was TG's and most people's most wanted, and considering how TG reacted to the trailer, I can see how y'all cried during that.

So yeah, congrats on being alive today to witness this big day.
 
I had a pretty lukewarm reaction to Hero, but Banjo was super hype, especially since after they showed Hero I had decided that was our character and we weren't getting another, and was slightly disappointed after all the buildup to Banjo. The rest of the Direct was just trailers I didn't care about, except for Luigi's Mansion 3 and (I guess) Mario & Sonic. SMM2 was only in the sizzle reel lol. But Banjo stole the direct definitely. I've never even played B-K but they definitely made the right call with which MS-owned character to add, Banjo and Kazooie are Nintendo characters in most fans' hearts and seeing them reunited with the DK crew, in a follow-up to K. Rool's trailer at that, was amazing. I almost want to try and get Banjo-Kazooie now.
