Are you, though? Are you really? I just don't want the Grinch bullshit to be true, I couldn't care less about him as a character. I'd rather have another Fire Emblem character. He's just like Waluigi,
cancerous as a meme.
Hold on there my dude, we are on two whole different levels. What are you referencing to?

Indeed.
They focused way too fucking hard on this lame-ass game, to the point where it was the only main title from Nintendo in 2018.
I mean, one could say Let's Go, but really that shit doesn't count as a main Pokemon game xD

One bingo spot = One shot
a lame ass game that is consistently the top seller on almost any console since it was created... with great reviews and everything, if smash is a lame-ass game i have no idea what the other games nintendo does are really.

I could continue arguing, but really, what else is there besides new characters and stages in each release?
It's the same trope as in any fighting game, yet people make this seem like a holy grail in gaming.

Ummm.... okay? You alright? What’s this grinch thing?
Basically, there was this Snapchat floating around that presumably details the entire roster on an unreleased banner containing a grand total of 7 unannounced characters. Its called the Grinch leak because you can also see a render of the Grinch in the Snapchat.

I'd personally rather play it than some other milked-to-death Street Fighter or Soul Calibur any day.

lol you can say that about any genre really, srs what has changed in mario games?mario kart? splatoon 2? its all the same its a sequel, you add characters stages, change the mechanics and you got was it called a sequel.

by that logic you should never buy any nintendo game or any game sequel, with very few exceptions this is what a sequel is...

Ideally, you'd never buy a game again as they're all the same, rehashed content with prettier graphics. Yet, here we are.

... And I thought I was negative. Y'all need a break..

Jeez, I can't wait for this fucking game to come out just to they can finally shut the fuck up about it already.
I'm tired of just hearing nothing but Smash lately since E3, it's like Nintendo doesn't even have anything in store outside of it...
Oh wait, they don't LOL
(Let's Go doesn't count)

But why dosen't count is the real question x°D

It was hella cruel putting the release in December, I can't stop watching what few pro matches are available on Youtube.

On the bright side, Smash Ultimate is looking far more balanced than previous entries, and because of that it seems a lot more characters will be viable for competitive play. Plus the "no obstacles" setting will make for far more stages played in tournaments.

I'm screaming in hype language. I truly cannot wait (except for Pokémon Let's Go, of course)

One question. What were the characters?
I'll put a spoiler beneath here:
Characters in the leak, if it really is true, are Shadow, Banjo and Kazooie, Isaac from Golden Sun, Ken, Mach Rider, Skull Kid, Geno and the Chorus Kids. Also, the positioning for some existing characters on this roster is a little different in a few spots.
