Nice character additions, I think. Both highly request characters. I think all that's left is the Choir Boys to make that old smash 4 "leak" accurate, right?
103 stages, god knows how many fighters, K. Rool, Chrom, Dark Samus, so much Castlevania love, a Monster Hunter stage, Shovel Knight, THE MOON ITSELF, and the one part of Smash Tour people liked!
Now Playing: Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart, Crash Bandicoot 4
As much as I loved that Direct, it's kind of a shame that Sakurai seems to be adding only "highly requested" characters. None of the 5 characters revealed got me ultrahyped, even with K Rool's funny reveal trailer (oh man). So far, the only newcomer that has me excited is Inkling. Don't get me wrong, I'm definitely going to try out all newcomers but it would be nice if we got more unusual characters instead. To me, those would be more fun to try out than the internet's "popular-by-demand" choices.
Also more and more it seems likely that Professor Layton won't be getting in this time, would he? Oh well.
OK, now to go back and rewatch the entire Direct, because why not?
God first.

@Yorumi The thing that I noticed is that they were talking about "Boss" characters. With that and some of the movie trailers we've seen, it feels like there's a subspace emissary or something similar lurking behind that blurred part of the menu screen. That's probably my main (though small) gripe with all these announcements we've had for Smash Ultimate: no mention of a story mode!
So who is ready for Super Smash-Everything-AND-the-Kitchen-Sink-Edition?

I’m expecting a monster hunter playable character now with the Rathalos showing up. That or I would love a dark souls knight character. Would be an interesting move set.

@OfNullAndVoid I agree with you, I would've loved to see what the game has in terms of single player content and/or a story mode, as you mentioned.
I liked the Smash Bros. direct overall, I'm hyped for the newly announced playable characters (especially Simon, Richter, and King K. Rool) and SSBU having over 100 stages, though it did sort of break my heart to see Zero and Shovel Knight as assist trophies instead of being playable. Especially Zero, and I was JUST replaying the Mega Man X series! But whatever, as long as we get a good game anyway, I'm perfectly happy.
@Yorumi Yeah, I would love to see break the target as well, for the reasons you mentioned. Another one was Event Mode, which forced you into specific situations (sometimes with specific fighters). You'd start with one square unlocked, and would unlock connecting squares once you beat it or met certain conditions.
