If I were to guess, he probably doesn't like the fact the game includes characters from mature games.

@Yosheel Only if they have a shirt on as well.

@Anti-Matter You do know Yoshi's Crafted World will be featured in Treehouse as well, right?

40 minutes? How involved can this 'Spirits' mode be??

it will be 30 minutes of new facial expressions

We need to know more about marios cheeks and Wii fits cellulite on legs and arms

My guess would be:

• 10 minutes (revealing the rest of characters and stages)
• 10 minutes (single player content)
• 10 minutes (online content + demo)
• 5 minutes (physical extras like the GC bundle Europe's getting and amiibo)
• 5 minutes (ingame extras like trophies, music CDs, challenge wall)

@Grumblevolcano Sounds plausible.

@Grumblevolcano I strongly doubt online stuff will take a full 10 minutes.

I'd say Spirits mode and the online stuff will take about 5-6 minutes each. That's about 10-12 minutes total, leaving 28-30 minutes - longer than the entirety of the August Smash Direct - for everything else. The rest of the Direct can be spent bringing up other modes (All Star, Event Mode, Special Smash, etc) and revealing the rest of the characters.

Leaves ample time to reveal 7 fighters

I'd expect it to break down closer to this:

• 12 minutes - New characters
• 8 minutes - Online content
• 5 minutes - Vault - Trophies, Trophy getting mode, Challenges, Replays, Records Stickers(?), etc.
• 8 minutes - Spirits
• 8 minutes - Stadium + Events + All-Star + other Single Player modes(?)
• 2 minutes - More ATs + Pokemon + Items

Yes I'm adding up to 42, I think we'll run over slightly like usual. Typically the final reveal happens right after it's 'supposed' to end timewise. That said, in terms of order I think we'll see it jumping between various modes and reveal types like usual.

Yes, indeed.
But, i can watch from Youtube after it has aired.

geez I just want a demo.

Edit: wheel of fortune is going to switch. Explains why my mother was asking me about bundles.

Get this.

Octopath Traveler sold over 1 million copies digitally in just 3 weeks after launch. Let that soak in for a second...

And we know physical sales outperform digital on Switch anywhere from a 2:1 ratio, to a 9:1 ratio. Even assuming the former, that puts Octopath at somewhere between 3-4 million copies sold.

Suddenly Square Enix dumping a dozen Final Fantasy games on Switch, and the Octopath devs increasing size to increase output on Switch makes complete and total sense.

new game arrived today

Lego Harry Potter Collection. And let me just say, I'm not a big Lego fan. In fact I pretty much hate them. I never buy Lego games (Lego City Cover aside, which was the game where I decided I really didn't like Lego games, although it was kind of fun for what it was). But this? This is a classic. I played this game back in my early 20s on the Wii. I fired it up this evening and I played through the first two missions of Years 1-4 and the first mission of 5-7... this is a call back to when Lego games were actually classics. This is probably the only Lego game I will buy this generation but I just wanted to give my two cents

Bubsy: Paws on Fire is coming to Switch...

@JaxonH I remember having a lot of fun with the LEGO Star Wars Trilogy back on Wii, I’d love to see a Switch port and see if it’s as good as I remember it to be.

What ?!
See.....
When the Switch version announced (Especially in Physical) , the PS4 version will instantly Worthless in my eyes.

Super Mario Party sold over 1.5 million this month.

@Anti-Matter why? Aren’t they the same game regardless of platform?
