If anything Klonoa related is announced in the upcoming Nintendo Direct, I will post a video to youtube of me saying wahoo 10,000 Times. 
But if he's in smash as a fighter or even as an assist trophy, I will literally die from adrenaline. The amounts of pure wahoo would just overwhelm me

Well. We don't know when the direct is gonna happen because of that earthquake.

I'm sure it'll be soon enough, maybe within two weeks.

Hokkaido earthquake Nintendo news my god.

I do hope my suspicions are wrong but...the January Smash Direct section, to me, just reeks of fake. I can not imagine Nintendo surprising people with a second fighter pass. How the details are so precise that it confirms a TF2 character, which has absolutely no ties to a Nintendo console, baffles me.

Good news! Turns out there's a direct tomorrow aka. just in time!

The Nintendo Direct will focus on the new character from Dragon Quest, which successfully lines up with the leak above so far. Here's what'll need to happen for us to have some hope that this leak will be real.

DQ Hero's moveset will be explained in detail
Releases after the direct
Chocobo and Geno Mii costumes return
New Mii Costumes: Sora, DQ Hero
15 DQ Spirits, 11 DQ Music Tracks
14 FF Spirits, 9 FF Music Tracks
4.0.0 Update adds Target Smash + Boss Rush.

What I've found out so far is that 4.0.0 is a big update, and that replays from before are not compartible with the new version. (Convert them if you want to keep them!) It releases July 31st.

Gonna say right now that apparently one of the Nintendo Twitter accounts slipped up that Hero will be released a day after the Direct. It got deleted within a minute or less. So already this "leak" has a flaw unless they didn't intend to imply that, "...after the Direct" meant RIGHT after it ends like they do with E3 announcements.
All of these Klonoa """leaks""" are really pulling strings man

Hero releases later today. And it seems most of this was wrong, anyway.

[Thorp]

So the Nintendo Direct surprised me. They announced that there will be a second group of dlc characters; I had previously disbelieved the "leak". There is now actually some hope again that Klonoa will make an appearance now that there are 6 spots remaining. With how successful Ultimate has been, I suppose I'm not actually too surprised with the announcement of second dlc pack. I will continue have my doubts about Klonoa showing up buuut...hoping is nice.

Can we move this over to the Super Smash Bros Ultimate thread?
