Shulk 8,623 Posted October 11, 2015 Yesterday, Shovel Knight was added to Nintendo's list of amiibo compatible with Smash Bros ( http://www.nintendo.com/amiibo/games/detail/HPp-wrUaZHOKvK_GzCJ9eDkIom6x_TEA ). This could have just been an accident, but given the fact that Yacht Club Games is treating the "leak" the same way they treated the Shovel Knight amiibo leaks, I think this could actually be more than a simple error on the website...

Shulk 8,623 Posted October 12, 2015 Nintendo of America is beginning to offer a download bundle for the Wii U and 3DS versions with the first three DLC packs included. Ahead of the busy shopping season Nintendo - in North America at least - is bundling most of the goodness together in one package. Amazon.com is now listing download packages that include the game and the first three complete DLC Collections; the Wii U version is $99.99 and the 3DS package is $79.99. Taking the recommended prices for the download versions of the games alone, $59.99 on Wii U and $39.99 on 3DS, this does offer a modest saving: Wii U DLC collections 1 to 3 when bought individually - $41.93 Wii U package saving at $99.99 - $1.93 3DS DLC Collections 1 to 3 when bought individually - $41.93 3DS package saving at $79.99 - $1.93 It's a marginal saving, though it should be pointed out this isn't a great deal for those intending to have both versions of the game, as each DLC pack only offers the content for one platform. Anyone that then buys the same content for the other system will end up paying a lot more than if they buy the game alone and then buy the discounted combo DLC packs for both platforms. Another aspect that strips the appeal from this bundle is the fact that Amazon (and others) are offering physical versions of the game at a nice discount, making it less expensive to buy the disc version and then download the DLC separately.

Source: http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2015/10/super_smash_bros_digital_complete_pack_combines_game_and_dlc_for_wii_u_and_3ds Unfortunate for current Wii U - 3DS owners who've already bought the game at launch (and prefer only one version of all the DLC). I guess Smash can attract new players, but its current audience is already pretty much established. Bundling digital versions of the deal would be far more practical.

Enix 995 Posted October 12, 2015 Some possible new development on the rumors. https://www.reddit.com/r/smashbros/comments/3oh2d0/spoilers_s... Seems Sean Hicks might have let it slip who the character is, assuming all of this is real. I'll just leave it at this: Are you a kid or a squid?

Honestly a bit sick of all of these non-leaks coming out recently. "Hey guys, I know who's coming and you don't!!!" It's stupid, and people are eating it up. Whatever comes out of people's mouths, it's all hot air until they give something substantial. I don't care if the people saying it are allegedly credible; it's still stuff that has no evidence. I think it's believable that the Inklings are coming, but this is ridiculous. 2 Clouded Sun and Enix reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clouded Sun 1,232 Posted October 12, 2015 Saw this on Twitter. Honestly a bit sick of all of these non-leaks coming out recently. "Hey guys, I know who's coming and you don't!!!" It's stupid, and people are eating it up. Whatever comes out of people's mouths, it's all hot air until they give something substantial. I don't care if the people saying it are allegedly credible; it's still stuff that has no evidence. I think it's believable that the Inklings are coming, but this is ridiculous. Like the pic above and the posts of speculation, I'd rather wait to see the fighters come to Smash. All this nonsensical edge-of-your-seat explosion at any little twitter news or site error from Nintendo is getting a bit silly now. 4 Reyn, Enix, Exiblade7 and 1 other reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Exiblade7 1,917 Posted November 13, 2015 since Cloud is in smash, do you guys think that Lloyd can get into smash. I know he's not from the same company as Cloud is, but still this just shows that almost character who gets voted the most could get into smash.

Shulk 8,623 Posted November 13, 2015 (edited) Why isn't the Cloud trailer here yet? since Cloud is in smash, do you guys think that Lloyd can get into smash. I know he's not from the same company as Cloud is, but still this just shows that almost character who gets voted the most could get into smash. This wasn't a ballot character. They would have mentioned if it was, and it's still too soon for ballot results. Edited November 13, 2015 by Shulk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If he has gameplay footage, he's been in the works for months, meaning he's been planned for a while. Too soon for ballot news, anyway. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shulk 8,623 Posted November 13, 2015 Welp, for the people who knocked Sora, let us remind you that Cloud's trailer caught everyone off guard. Still doesn't mean anything for Sora. It's not just Square that Nintendo would have to deal with. I doubt that Smash would get two Square characters, anyway. If they do get a second Square Enix character, a DQ hero would make more sense anyway, given that it's tied to Nintendo. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And why we shouldn't just take out other people's hopes 'cause we don't think it'll happen.And which is why I encouraged people to vote for who they want, not who they think'll get in.
