Tomorrow the final character in Super Smash Bros Ultimate will be revealed. After 3 years of hype and speculation it should finally be coming to an end. Personally, this game went above and beyond my expectations with the base roster alone. Banjo Kazooie being revealed as DLC was mind blowing at the time and meant a lot to me personally. The N64 will always be a special console to me and Rare was a big part of my childhood. It was wonderful seeing that legacy recognised somewhat and I think this gif sums up how everyone was feeling. Especially after the disaster that was the Grinch Leak.
The Rare boys reunited again.
Beyond that we had excellent reps from across the medium, Joker started the DLC with a bang, Hero took a deserved spot for Dragon Quests legacy, Terry Bogard annd Kazuya broadened the fighting game representation, Sephiroth redeemed the mediocre FF7 content in smash 4 and was arguably the biggest announcement, the indie scene (in spirit) finally got a rep with Mincraft Steve and Min Min, Pyra and Mythra are cool female Nintendo characters from a new IP. Ridley too big? Na. King K Rool back from the 90s? Sure. Two Castlevania characters? Why not. Snake is back? Everyone is here?
So it's the biggest and greatest Smash game ever. Where the hell do they go from here? Mario Kart 8 Deluxe it for the next 10 years? Try and stick to the same smash but have the burden of beating this insane roster? A complete reboot from the ground up? A new director? Or bow out here and call it a day?
