Patch notes: Kazuya breaks out of the game and does the 10 hit combo on you.
Seriously, they gave this man literally everything. I don't wanna face this man in bracket lol.
It seems to me like Kazuya will be a god if you know how to play him, but terrible if you don't.
Also, Mythra's Lightning Buster previously had a glitch where it always treated the opponent's weight as being 100 (which made it weaker against lighter characters), but this patch fixed it.

While I sort of appreciate how faithful Kazuya is to Tekken, I also know I'll never be able to play as him effectively. I have trouble remembering how to do Terry's inputs in the middle of battle, much less most of Kazuya's. I'm still glad that Tekken finally got a character.
While the Mii costumes were nothing like I predicted, again (though I like the costumes chosen), at least I have a good track record with the legendary spirits. And there are 39 Tekken songs, which is very impressive.
I gave up on predicting who will get in a long time ago, but characters I don't expect are:
- Any Western characters
- Characters from Microsoft, SE, and Namco (while companies could double dip I don't think they will)
- Fighting game characters (I don't think we'd get two in a row)
- Nintendo characters who don't appear in any Switch games (Byleth, Min Min, Pyra, and Mythra all come from them)
Strangely enough, Phoenix Wright is probably Capcom's biggest character left, since RE, MH, and DMC are out and I don't think we'd get another Street Fighter character right after Kazuya. SNK gave some of everything with Terry and I don't know how many viable characters Konami has left (Raiden? Pyramid Head?), so I mostly think the last character will be from Nintendo, Sega, a smaller Capcom series (like Phoenix or Amaterasu), or a new Japanese company. I sure can't wait to be wrong!
Just get ready for the final character to be a Pokémon.It's strange the Koei Temco has absolutely nothing at this point, except Fatal Frame which it co-owns with Nintendo. Hopefully Ryu Hayabusa can be a Mii costume if he isn't the final character. -
I see the latest Mii costume wave as a set of "honorable mentions". Will the final Mii wave have more honorable mentions? Probably not, because I didn't get anything right about this wave or the previous one so I'll be wrong next time too.

Wilhelm basically runs the entire Xenosaga universe, I'm sure he can find a way to press charges in a different universe. -
I don't think Kaga can accuse Maeda of destroying the franchise when he released an SNES game in 1999, three years after the N64 came out. -
I can't wait for Harada to bust down Sakurai's door during the presentation and reveal that the final challenger is another Fire Emblem character.
More seriously, I'd to see Nightmare and KOS-MOS as Mii costumes. I wouldn't be surprised if Jin's spirit enhanced into Devil Jin; maybe Heihachi and Devil Jin can both be legendary spirits? It's possible since Pyra and Mythra came with two/three legendary spirits.

Thursday you say? Some people might prefer to call it Wednesday.

If I had a nickel for every time I tried to watch a new anime on Netflix but couldn’t because my account’s password changed, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.

Metroid Dread selling two million isn't that unlikely; if Xenoblade 2 can sell two million, Dread probably can too. Star Allies and Three Houses are among the best selling games in their series, so Metroid should benefit from the sales boost that comes with being on the Switch.

Kazuma Kiryu faces his greatest foe yet... a giant spider that knows kung fu!
Today is Sonic's 30th birthday, so I played as him a bit in Smash to commemorate the occasion. Maybe one day soon I'll revisit and finish Sonic Adventure 2 Battle
and get a Light Chao(relatedly, the original SA2 was released in Japan and Europe 20 years ago today; it was released a few days earlier in the US however).14 minutes ago, Armagon said:Booted up Metroid Fusion again and let me tell you, y'all don't know true fear until you're being chased by SA-X.
If you think SA-X is bad, wait until you see the aptly named Nightmare. It's a nightmare to fight and look at.
I'm looking forward to seeing if the E.M.M.I. live up to SA-X's reputation in Dread. Hooray for being hunted!

LMAO Heihachi.
I can't believe Heihachi is a Firefly fan.
Actually, this video accurately describes Heihachi's relationship with his son. And his grandson... and his father... and his wife...

So apparently it was announced last month that Singular Point will be released internationally on Netflix on June 24, but I never noticed it until now. Will every episode be added at once? At least I have something to look forward to.
Also, I can't believe the Godzilla Store spoiled SP's ending:
-
KOS-MOS might not be in Smash, but at least Shion's friend Kazuya got in.
I don't think Kazuya has any friends within his own series, so it's nice to know he has a positive relationship with someone...Though I don't know how it's possible, since Earth ceased to exist thousands of years before Xenosaga takes place. Granted, Akuma is canonically part of the Tekken universe, so maybe Kazuya knowing Shion isn't that unusual. I could bring up Noctis or Negan too, but they're not part of any Tekken game's plot unlike Akuma.

Fallen Edelgard committed tax fraud.

I was hoping Marianne wouldn’t be the cheerleader, but whatever, I like Hilda well enough.
And as of now, Ignatz is the only non-Ashen Wolf student to be absent from the game. Maybe he’ll get in someday…

So that technically makes Jin Mishima kinda the Ken Masters and Chrom echo situation of Tekken series, correct? (few differences from the original fighter)
Like what difference in Jin's fighting style differs from his father, Kazuya in the Tekken Franchise?
Jin in Tekken 3 used a modified version of Kazuya's moveset while also using some moves from his mother Jun, both of whom were absent in T3. When Kazuya came back in Tekken 4, Jin got a completely new moveset, though Devil Jin (introduced in Tekken 5) uses a modified version of Jin's previous moveset. The Tekken content in Ultimate seems to be based mostly on Tekken 7, unlike Ryu and Ken who are mostly based on Street Fighter II, so making Jin an echo of Kazuya in this game doesn't seem likely.
As another difference, while Kazuya can transform into his Devil form midbattle, Jin's Devil form has a completely different moveset. Kazuya's devil powers being easier to implement than Jin's might be another reason why he was picked as the Tekken character.
1 hour ago, Glennstavos said:The Donkey Kong you see in Smash (and every Donkey Kong Country game) is DK jr's son. Cranky's grand son. This is actually confirmed within the codec conversation back in Brawl, so where Smash is concerned there's no ambiguity regarding 'which' Donkey Kong is in the game. I'd say it's about time DK settles down though.
There has been some zigzagging over the years as to whether or not DK is Cranky's son or grandson and thus whether or not he's Jr., as one of Rare's writers said modern DK is in fact Jr. and to ignore any claim otherwise in 1999. However the current story is that DK is Cranky's grandson, which means he's also Jr.'s son, though Jr. being in limbo makes it hard to determine the truth. On the other hand, Cranky being the original DK has remained mostly consistent.
Adding to the father business, Pac-Man has children too, though they might be in legal limbo like Ms. Pac-Man. And from a certain standpoint (Xenoblade spoilers)
SpoilerShulk technically killed Pyra and Mythra's father, so that might help him earn Kazuya's respect.

Maybe if you listen to Yakuza music before the next Nintendo direct for a smash revealI listened to some relaxing Yakuza music before the E3 direct, and we got a Kazu*a whose name is an anagram of "Yakuza" so I think it worked so some extent.

Wait, what!!?
Well KOS-MOS might kill me if I get between her and a Gnosis, but at least she wouldn't enjoy it like T-elos would.
1 hour ago, Armagon said:What personality?
Also I'm sorry to tell you this, but Frank and Hsien-Ko don't come back in PXZ2. PXZ2 does have Phoenix Wright and Segata Sanshiro though, so it could be worse. It has Yakuza characters too so Benice is legally obligated to play it.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate has a spirit of Chaos (granted, from Sonic). Clearly this means Jack will be the final DLC character.
1 hour ago, Armagon said:Worth it then.T-elos isn't that hot to be honest, she may look identical to KOS-MOS but Kossy has a much better personality. -
Is there anything showing that Samus is working for the Federation this time? Per Wikitroid, the Federation finds evidence of surviving X Parasites and sends the E.M.M.I. to investigate, and Samus learns of this and goes to investigate herself. I assumed the E.M.M.I. were created to hunt down Samus, but it seems that isn't the case for now.
Something else the game will likely follow up on is the
Spoilerfrom Samus Returns. It's likely this character will make a proper appearance in this game. My guess for how the plot will go is
SpoilerSamus finds the rogue Chozo faction and learns they plan to use their own population of Metroids to take over the galaxy! Naturally, Samus must stop them.
Also, Ridley will show up late in the game. How? Either the Chozo made their own clone of him, or they somehow saved him after Samus defeated him for the last time on Zebes. They might plan to make use of him as an attack dog, but he'll probably betray them.
-
Now that I think about it, the only 2D Metroid I haven't finished is the first one. I bought the 3DS early so I got Fusion for free, I played Samus Returns when it came out, and I played Super with the Switch Online.
My main question with Dread is, how will they bring back Ridley this time? It's the end of the Metroid saga so they can't just not include him. Hopefully they'll bring back Kraid too.
2 hours ago, lightcosmo said:Where are the rioting Smash fans that complain about the new character being to similar to Ryu/Terry!?
Kazuya isn't anime or a swordsman, so he's fine. He also threw Marth into a volcano, which means he doesn't like Fire Emblem either.
2 hours ago, Armagon said:It looks like the deciding factor might've been that since Kazuya was the original protagonist of Tekken, he was chosen due to that even though Heihachi is far more recognizable.
Of course, Kazuya may have been the protagonist but he was the protagonist in the same way Thanos was the protagonist of Infinity War. Because he is not a good guy and that makes him the only other villain besides Sephiroth to join as DLC.
To refresh my Tekken lore, Kazuya was the main character of Tekken 1, but he wasn't really "good" even then. He became the main villain in 2, was busy being dead in 3, and is still a villain (though not the main villain) in 4, 5, and 6. He's also arguably the main character of 7, which focuses on concluding his and Heihachi's rivalry. But it was Kazuya's idea to make a genetically engineered boxing dinosaur, so he can't be all bad, right?
Kazuya, Heihachi, and Jin can all be considered Tekken's main characters, so all three had valid reasons to be chosen for Smash. Heihachi appears in all seven games, while Kazuya missed out on 3 which Jin was introduced in.
Of course, the real reason Heihachi wasn't added is because he was in PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale, and Sakurai didn't want to double dip. -
I'm happy with Kazuya and the lack of a Tekken character was a pretty strange omission. I think Sakurai will explain why he was chosen over Jin and Heihachi during his presentation, especially since we know Heihachi was considered for Smash 4. Kazuya was the protagonist of the first Tekken which might have something to do with it, and/or his Devil powers made his moveset more interesting.
But most importantly, we have another chance for KOS-MOS to get a Mii costume. She didn't come with her younger Xeno sisters but maybe she'll come with her fellow Namco character (though I don't really expect it).
Lastly, I hope my man Mokujin gets in as a spirit.
-
I can't wait for the memes of Kazuya throwing other characters into lava.
After 19 years, we finally have a sequel to Metroid Fusion. It's a miracle! We also got BotW2 footage (but not a title oddly), which is good.

The way you say this suggests the bait-and-switch robot girl isn't Fiora.
No, the robot girl is Fiora, but she's in a Xenosaga related place and not a Xenoblade location.

It turns out Kazuya is pretty fun to play as, once you find some moves you're good with. As of him, the list of Ultimate's DLC codenames are:
The developers were lucky that eflame and elight didn't leak. Could it be referring to the two-in-one characters whose Japanese names mean "flame" and "light"?
