Today it was announced that that Pokémon outside the Galar Pokédex can't be transferred to SnS, but beyond that we have two new Pokémon:
The doggo is Yamper, an Electric-type with the ability Ball Fetch, which lets it collect the first failed throw of a Poké Ball during a battle. Impidimp is a Dark/Fairy-type, a new type combination.

I was confident in us getting a Dragon Quest character but I wasn't convinced it would be Erdrick in particular, so I guess I was kind of correct even if Erdrick is in as an alt.
And with Banjo in, hopefully we will get acknowledgement of the greatest Rare IP, Viva Piñata. Also the Spiral Mountain track was added to the website.

We have a release date folks. 03/03/20.
Damn it, now i can't make "FF7R never" jokesDon't worry, this is only episode 1 (a fact that Square presently seems to ignore/avoid mentioning). The rest of the episodes will go back to never being released, so we'll have plenty of opportunities to make jokes in the future.
Speaking of which, shouldn't that official confirmation be specifying that Episode 1 is releasing 3/3/20 and not the whole game? Because I imagine people will be annoyed when they learn that they aren't getting the entire game at once.

Nomura, the reason Sephiroth worked was because of mystique. You never saw one bit of him until the Nibelheim flashback, which made him all the more chilling and intimidating.
And why are the clones there? Just...WHY? Oh dear Jenova
I'm guessing they need some kind of epic climax at the end of every episode, even if they have to make one up. Maybe the clones being around earlier has something to do with that.

To no one's surprise, Sakurai announced at the end of the Ultimate World Championship that the next DLC character will be revealed during Nintendo's E3 Direct. His wording suggested that there will be only one character, but maybe we'll get another character revealed
on Twitterif we're lucky. -
I expect Three Houses to have a presence in the Direct and at Treehouse Live, but hopefully they won't show too much. Maybe the English website will update with all the students too. Marianne is the student I'm most interested in, but she'll likely be revealed last at this rate so oh well.
And maybe they'll reveal that Sothis can use her time powers to summon your students' children from the future! -
I get the feeling that there was some misunderstanding involved here. I assume Vee was a placeholder for the trailer and that Edelgard was never "her" role to begin with, which is why the voice director didn't mind casting someone else instead. Meanwhile, Vee didn't audition for Edelgard because she expected to be called back when voice recording for Three Houses started properly, but she wasn't.

Because nobody asked before now.

At last, the rightful king returns. According to the Steam page...
QuoteAre you ready, kids? The cult classic is back, faithfully remade in spongetastic splendor! Play as SpongeBob, Patrick and Sandy and show the evil Plankton that crime pays even less than Mr. Krabs. Want to save Bikini Bottom from lots of rampant robots with your mighty bubbles? Of course you do! Want to underpants bungee jump? Why wouldn't you! Want to join forces in a brand new multiplayer mode? The battle is on!
GAME FEATURES
Play as SpongeBob, Patrick and Sandy and use their unique sets of skills
Thwart Plankton's evil plan to rule Bikini Bottom with his army of wacky robots
Meet countless characters from the beloved series
REMAKE FEATURES
Faithful remake of one of the best SpongeBob games ever created
High-end visuals, modern resolutions and carefully polished gameplay
Brand new horde mode multiplayer for up to two players, online and splitscreen
Restored content that was cut from the original game like the Robo Squidward boss fight and moreHuh, adding cut content is much more than what I was expecting, especially a whole new boss fight. It makes me wonder just how much new content this remake will have?
-
The website has updated, here are the typings of the new Pokémon:
- Gossifleur and Eldegloss are pure Grass
- Wooloo is pure Normal (presumably our early game, two-stage Normal type)
- Corviknight is Flying/Steel
- Drednaw is Water/Rock
- Zacian and Zamazenta don't have their types yet, which isn't unusual as we didn't get the types for the previous mascots immediately.
Thinking back on it, I liked Sun and Moon's approach of getting new information every two weeks so I hope they do that again here.
-
For an idea, I suggest that the final boss should be an obligatory evil dragon known as the Data Dragon, who seeks to destroy the continent of Zerenia with eternal error messages and lag. But you can do something different if you have other ideas for the final boss.

Since I must compare everything to Xenoblade 2, I'm guessing the Flame Emperor's faction will be like Torna.
On an unrelated note, will the Flame Emperor turn out to be Edelgard's supposedly dead older brother?Catherine also seems like a Camus for some reason, if the Church turns out to be evil. Alois seems like he'd be conflicted if the Church is bad, maybe he'll be a Lorenz instead (unrelated to this game's Lorenz, presumably).I'm wondering just how long this game is. One month equals one chapter, but how many "traditional" battles will there be? Will there be multiple battles per month/chapter? How many chapters will there be?
Anyway, some crest stuff (spoliered for length):
SpoilerOut of 25 playable characters so far (eight students from each house plus Byleth), we have eleven known crest bearers out of 22 crests:
- Byleth
- Edelgard
- Ferdinand
- Bernadetta
- Dimitri
- Felix
- Mercedes
- Claude
- Lorenz
- Hilda
- Lysithea
Oddly, the Golden Deer have the most crests thus far despite apparently having the most commoners.
Out of the covered characters who don't have crests (Hubert, Dorothea, Dedue, Raphael, and Ashe), Hubert is the only noble (Ashe technically is but he wasn't born into nobility). Petra, Linhardt, Caspar, Annette, Sylvain, Ingrid, Leonie, Ignace, and Marianne have not been covered yet, but...
- The remaining Black Eagles are all nobles based on Dorothea's description, but we don't know if they have crests.
- Annette might be a commoner if she has a prior friendship with Mercedes, who is a commoner in Faerghus.
- Sylvain has a middle name so he's probably a noble and has a crest.
- Ignace is from a merchant family, so he's a commoner.
- We don't know enough about Ingrid, Marianne, and Leonie to make judgments regarding them.
And based on their full names, Hanneman is of nobility while Manuela is not.

I may actually make you start as a Monk instead in that case.
I imagined being a late game unit (who may first appear around mid-game but doesn't join the player until later), but you can do whatever you want.

12. Lightchao42 - Bishop
Hey, when did I become the only genderless character? My gender is right there in my profile.Maybe my character can be the obligatory pretty boy as a compromise.Anyway, I imagine my character starting off as a neutral traveling scholar or he can start with the enemy faction if they need some kind of eccentric scientist. He eventually helps the heroes because he usually goes with whatever side is most convenient for his interests. Whatever he studies (magic, dragons, special artifacts, etc.) can depend on the needs of the plot.

So it's been three months since SnS have been announced, but fortunately the information drought will be over soon.
15 minutes is quite long, so hopefully we'll get the mascots and a decent amount of new Pokémon announced.
-
I guess I'll throw my ring in to the hat with more details.
- Username: Lightchao42
- Game Name: Lucian
- Desired Class: Bishop (from Mage)
You can do whatever you want regarding stats, but I imagine him joining late-ish.

Strange news everyone!
The movie has been delayed to February. It seems the filmmakers are actually changing the things people didn't like, which I wasn't expecting.
-
I wish you luck with this, if you go through with making it. I volunteer myself as an exposition bot scholar who is largely indifferent to whatever conflict is going on, but is willing to share information with whoever wants it. Maybe he can be a late joining Sage in case the player's mages aren't up to par.
-
- Animal Crossing (the star of the show)
- Fighters Pass character 2 (available immediately after presentation) and maybe character 3 (releasing a few months later)
- Trailers for Mario Maker 2, Three Houses (and DLC), Weegee's Mansion 3, and Link's Awakening remake
- We'll probably get Sword and Shield information before E3, so I don't expect too much in the direct
- No Fire Emblem Warriors 2, because they'll want to wait until Three Houses has been out for a while (so they can pull popular characters from it)
- Nothing from Monolith Soft
- Still no Pikmin 4
- Miscellaneous new games

In Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Rhea acts as the Archbishop and supreme leader of the Church of Seiros. She has held this position ever since Jeralt belonged to the Knights of Seiros.
She considers the protagonist to be highly qualified and invites them to teach at the Officers Academy. She treats people gently as a loving mother would, but also passes merciless judgement on those who defy the Church.It seems I was right about Rhea being her name in English, it certainly fits the "motherly" and "holy" theme. I wonder if the specific mention of Jeralt means anything, do they have some kind of history together?
-
- Byleth's mother is related to the Church and Seiros in some way. Maybe she's Rhea, or maybe she's Rhea's sister or another relative. Regardless, Byleth is descended from Seiros and that's why they can interact with Sothis.
- Sothis is the goddess and her amnesia is a side effect of somehow losing her power, because why would she have amnesia if her identity wasn't important?
- The students from the houses you don't pick will join later, but they won't be as customizable as "your" students. Some non-students will be recruitable as well.
- The leaders of the two houses you don't pick will be antagonistic to Byleth at points, but they'll still join you eventually.
- Based on the unused "Unknown" category on the website, there's some obviously evil faction that the evil-looking white-haired dude and plague doctor are part of. They may or may not be related to the Church in some way, even if the Church isn't bad.
- The blonde fire sword lady is a Knight of Seiros.
- There's an evil god/dragon that's responsible for the crests being to blame, and it also stole Sothis's power (if Sothis is the goddess). Byleth and friends kill it and Sothis gets her power back, which also makes her grow up. The game ends with Byleth's students graduating.

My prediction thus far is that DLC fighters #2 and #3 would both be revealed in Nintendo's E3 Direct and that #2 would be released the day of. Quick amendment: knowing that there's a smash bros tournament the day before the Direct, I expect that is when we will see the announcement and shadow drop of Fighter #2. I also suspect said character is not a Guest, though I couldn't guess who. #3 however my guess will be Dragon Quest guy. Since a supposed release in July would coincide with the new game arriving on Nintendo Switch.
This seems reasonable, but I don't think we'll get any announcements at the tournament. Smash 4 and Ultimate's prerelease tournaments didn't have any character announcements (the former would have been a good opportunity to announce Pac-Man, but he was revealed on Twitter instead...), and I don't expect that to change now.

Thank all ye peoples who are posting images for your hard work.
Mikoto's statement about Arete being her sister seems rather unambiguous in-game, so I assume them not being related is a retcon. Does the artbook provide an explanation for why they both have dragon blood?
-
Since this topic is back, here's a compilation of some of the artbook's pages. It doesn't contain any lore tidbits, which could be disappointing or a good thing because they didn't need to include more Japan-only supplementary material (besides the notes with the Siren model).
In Torna I recommend doing sidequests as you go along, just to make things more convenient later (you'll see when you get there). Also you'll be able to appreciate Best Girl Mythra more, which is good.
-
It's a bit odd that Xenoblade 2 got an artbook before Fates did, despite being released two and a half years later.Wow, the artbook actually does exist! I was worried that I imagined the whole thing. It's a shame that not everyone has full artwork, but I appreciate that Kozaki felt strongly enough to apologize about it.
Also, it's pretty cool (heh) that Flora's artwork is a reflection of Felicia's.

Here are the balance changes for version 3.0.0. (I'm not familiar enough with competitive to know what to make of these changes... well, aside from reducing power against shields.)
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate News and Discussion: A Simple and Clean Finish

I haven't played any Banjo-Kazooie games so I don't know if they were always like this, but here they seem like jerks. K. Rool was so happy to see them, yet they still threw him off a cliff and crushed him under a rock. What terrible people.
But anyway I think Rex has a decent chance for the next game when it releases in 2035, since Sakurai likes XC2 and suggested that Rex (and an ARMS character) would be in Ultimate if the timing was more convenient. He's a popular request among first parties so that could help bypass any "relevancy" issues.
