Trying to keep my expectations low but the Shovel Knight hope is too strong.

Sakurai retweeted the Direct. We're pretty much getting something. As for what, I'd say Mii costumes and a stage(or 2 or 3) at the very least. Character announcements seem likely, but they may not be available for play just yet. The ballot will be acknowledged most likely, imo.

No other predictions I feel are worth making(that I can make, I mean). Too unpredictable at this point.

I think ballot reference, stage, and mii fighter costumes will be in there. I think a character will be announced, but it will either be Wolf, Shovel Knight, or Rool.

Just remember when Monolithsoft retweeted the Smash trailer for Lucina and Robin and everyone thought it was going to be Shulk.

Quite honestly, I don't know who or what to expect from the Direct. I'm guessing it'll wind up being K. Rool, Wolf, and possibly Shovel Knight or the Inklings, but I don't really know who it'll wind up being.

I won't be surprised if they reveal some Mii Costumes or some stages, though.

Sakurai has never retweeted a direct unless it had Smash news. It's pretty much happening.

I'm hoping for Wolf, Inklings, and Shovel Knight. With King K. Rool, Isaac, and I'm not sure on the 6th one.

I'm kind of expecting we'll just get news of maybe two ballot characters, and a "More coming in 2016!" sort of tease. Personally I'm hoping for Shovel Knight and/or Shantae, because they both look like fun and I just think it'd be cool if some of the more iconic indy games got some recognition in Smash.

Other than that? No idea, as long as whoever gets in is fun I won't have much to complain about smile

If Isaac gets in, he should have Matthew and Felix as alternate costumes and his Final Smash should be either Judgement or Megiddo.

Part of me feels like Isaac won't make it in, but then again, Pit happened so who knows.

I'd be quite okay with it. I loved the Golden Sun games. I could imagine Catch synergy being used for a grab and tether, maybe Move as a side special for edgeguarding, or Lift or Carry as a recovery option.

A slight tangent, but I feel they have to do Isaac if they want the Golden Sun series to survive. There's literally nothing for the games anymore, and the last appearance he had was in Brawl.

If Isaac never becomes a character in Sm4sh then I think that the series will completely die. If he does become a character in Sm4sh, then if he's popular enough they might make another game. Very similarly to Pit (though Pit's was a 20 year difference and rode off the old game nostalgia, I don't know if Isaac would have the same appeal).

In a similar sense, an Advance Wars character can revitalize a demand to make a new Advance Wars game.

My predictions were based off of who I was seeing dominate "Top 10 Smash Ballot picks" videos.

I don't really see the merit in comparing him with Pit when a) it's "planned before the very first trailer" vs. "planned as DLC a whole year after the respective game was released", and b) it was SSB's director himself that went ahead with the new Kid Icarus game.

And much like Wolf, it feels like we would have gotten him far earlier than the likes of Roy and Ryu if there were independent plans for him.

[up]Those are also some of my issues.

I highly doubt the series will be revived as well as him making it into Smash.

I remember that flash video where some massively nerdy looking dude was the butt of the joke for wanting this guy in Smash

Well

I guess he's about as iconic as FF gets.
