Super Smash Blog Updates | NEWEST: Ditto

[_Sheik]

I'm not big on Mega Man games but this sounds incredible.

 

[Arthur97]

Alolan Raichu for today.

 

[MarioMeteor]

The Mega Man 4 medley impressed me. I really hope that they do other medleys in the same style for Mega Man 3, 6 and 9.

 

[evildevil97]

Loving the MM4 Medley. A medley of Capcom songs by a Sega composer, for a Nintendo franchise...

 

[CosmicEternity44]

Speaking of Mega Man, he is up.

 

[PlayerOneTyler]

Already updated! Had a feeling he'd be next. We should take bets on the next veteran haha. I say Pikachu to go with Alolan Raichu.

 

[Arthur97]

Hey, they fixed the video on his actual page!

Uh, gonna make a guess and saw we get...Ness.

 

[_Sheik]

Banking on Pichu

 

[Sabrewulf238]

It seems like they're ramping up the posts related to characters. Though I couldn't guess what that means. (if anything)

Maybe it's because they're running out of new items and assist trophies to post. Though there's still many many stages they could be showing off.

 

[SSBBDaisy]

Bet it's an item or a stage. Hell maybe a picture of his dog

 

[DutchPichu]

Well, Pit is up.

This week was uninteresting. Only one new picture up.

 

[Pyra]

There doesn't seem to be a "Today's Memory" (yet?)

 

[Swamp Sensei]

There doesn't seem to be a "Today's Memory" (yet?)

Not every day has them right?

 

[SSBBDaisy]

4 characters in one week? Keep em coming Sakurai so you will run out and only have new information to post. :]

 

[Pyra]

Not every day has them right?

Not sure, I just kinda figured they were pretty normal for fighters.
Even if that isn't the case, I kind of expected one for Pit, of all characters haha.

 

[lordvaati]

Mega Man 4 Medley is up.

Where's my Dr. Cossack stage music at

 

[TMNTSSB4]

gets the honor of ending the week of Smash news off...good

【きょうの思い出】19：ピチュー
ピチューの初登場作品は、1999年に発売された『ポケットモンスター 金・銀』です。ピカチュウ同士かライチュウ同士の♂♀を預けて、もらえるタマゴからのみ生まれます。#スマブラSP　#ポケモン pic.twitter.com/B7F89hLEPd

Today's Memory 19:

Pichu's first appearance was in Pokemon Gold and Silver (1999). It will be born from an egg that you receive when you leave a male and female Raichu or Pikachu in the day care.


Something along those lines. I might have added words, haha, but here's an early look on what it approximately is before better people come along.

Here's Source Gaming's take on it:　

【Today's Memory 】19：Pichu
Pichu's first appearance was the 1999 "Pokémon Gold and Silver". If trainers dropped off two Pikachus or two Raichus (one male and one female) at the daycare, they would receive an egg that hatches into a Pichu. #SmashBlog https://t.co/bXOYD6lRQs

On Twitter, the very first response to the official post that I saw was "メタモン..." which is "Ditto...", someone was quick to point out that you can use Ditto haha

 

[AIM0001]

So it looks like Pichu trailer today. Meh.

 

[Pyra]

So it looks like Pichu trailer today. Meh.

It seems he's been buffed. Glass cannon Pichu, I can totally get behind.

 

[SSBBDaisy]

Everyone should be happy that he keeps posting character trailers cuz eventually he's going to run out don't forget :D

 

[Arthur97]

So, we just skipped Pit? Okay.

 

[osby]

Cutest fighter is here.

By the way, why Today's Fighter is still Mega Man?

He's on vacation.

Maybe they'll remember by the time they get to Palutena. But if it happens a second time, it's probably their way of saying "Kid Icarus isn't getting any favoritism, see, we don't even remember what his game box looks like!".

Stuff like this is why you should be able to have more than one moderator for a news thread.

Lol you don’t need the OP to be updated to have a conversation about what the update was. I will be back tonight and I will update the OP. Patience.

 

[AIM0001]

Does anyone agree if we don’t get a new character reveal this month, that we may have to rethink the 1 new (non echo) character a month theory? I’d like to think we’d atleast be getting 6 more new character announcements but we’ll see. We still got this week and next week for our July reveal. Also I’d really like to see New Donk City officially.

No favoritism to Kid Icarus = DEATH TO THE MAD MAN...by snapping fingers

So, we just skipped Pit? Okay.

Pichu also, but they still have their friends

No, Pichu's game was covered. G/S is kind of hard to ignore.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

No, Pichu's game was covered. G/S is kind of hard to ignore.

But is it hard to ignore Pichu?

As for the box art for one of the two KI games (don’t think the middle game is allowed to be remembered), Sakurai is trying t9 hide his love for his new son due to making him a beginner character like Mario

Yeah, but does Pit really seem like a good starter character?

I think Wolf is also the only returnee to not be featured yet. Next week perhaps?

 

[TMNTSSB4]

If someone were to start learning more technical moves but easy enough to learn, then yeah (well that and he’s the fairest character in Smash history)

Wolf could get recognition either this week or the next before they focus on the rest of the cast...unless they decide to never talk about him for some random reason (like Sakurai realizing Etika never ate a certain sandwich he promised to eat)

 

[DutchPichu]

Surprising. We have a stage. Moray Towers is up!

 

[Arthur97]

Nice touch about the flag though.

 

[PlayerOneTyler]

Updated with Moray Towers and Pichu's Memory!

Also, thanks to whoever updated my post last night (I believe it was Venus?)-- I got home super late from my flight and I just passed out haha.

 

[Superyoshiom]

Still waiting for that Stages tab to open up.

 

[Arthur97]

Still waiting for that Stages tab to open up.

Watch it open Dec 8th.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

Watch it open Dec 8th.

Wouldn’t be surprising if that happened

 

[AIM0001]

I think we’ve been getting songs on Tuesday nights. Here hoping for Lorule Castle Theme 2!
