Aaaand that's all! Thanks for joining us on this stream, did you enjoy it?

13:45

Terry goes live TODAY in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

13:45

Battle Arenas are getting an update!

13:42

Mii Fighter costumes now!

13:41

Good gravy, the total number of SNK songs to feature is nearly 50!

13:40

Now we get to see a list of music that'll feature from the various series Terry's been in.

He did it the absolute mad man.

13:33

AlexOlney said:

Jump

13:28

AlexOlney said:

I can already smell the angry YouTube videos.

13:26

That's a lot of characters.

13:23

AlexOlney said:

Its rare for a stage to already be banned before it's released.

13:22

Terry's cap flies off when he's knocked out in Stamina Mode. F Tier.

13:19

AlexOlney said:

I have a feeling Terry's recovery may be a bit pants to compensate for all this.

13:17

Terry has a whole boatload of cancelling options. Oh boy.

13:14

You can give Terry i-frames if you charge his up special beforehand.

13:12

Terry will also have another unique special, a BACK special.

13:09

Terry has a unique move he can execute by attacking whilst spot-dodging.

13:08

AlexOlney said:

Sakurai's really churning through these moves isn't he?

13:07

Just like Ryu and Ken, Terry will face the opponent automatically in 1v1 matches.

13:06

AlexOlney said:

There's the boy.

13:06

Big important thing to note, what we're seeing is over a month old, so there may be small differences when we get our hands on Terry.

13:05

We're learning a little bit more about Fatal Fury, still no sign of Terry fighting in Ultimate yet.

13:03

AlexOlney said:

So this is why it's 45 minutes long.

13:01

AlexOlney said:

This time Sakurai will be playing 4 characters at once.

13:01

Sakurai's got a rather splendid array of Neo-Geo gubbins around him.

13:00

Here we go!

12:54

AlexOlney said:

I'm seeing chatter that this is 45 minutes long. That's something I didn't expect.

12:53

AlexOlney said:

Get the soup ready, we can't have you watching this on an empty stomach.

12:51

Barely 10 minutes left, what are you expecting to see?

12:44

The countdown's appeared, only 15 minutes until saucy Terry action!

12:36

AlexOlney said:

Terry Who?

Luna-Harmony said:

Awesome simply outstanding.

jockmahon said:

why does smash get these hyper detailed releases for a single char

Wanna drawthe face, but I'm not guy to do it.

rjejr said:

I'm not a Smash guy, I just watch for Sakurai and I'm never disappointed, so much knowledge and enthusiasm.

Dark-Luigi said:

You and me both @Jam

Grumblevolcano said:

Fighter 5 will probably be Game Awards reveal

This has ended. Please look elsewhere

Jamotello said:

mai...

SheldonRandoms said:

4chan must be exploding now after the mii costume reveals

Lol

Dark-Luigi said:

'Eyyy!

Thanks for watching, guys.

masterLEON said:

ah, that Kirby!

SheldonRandoms said:

Fatal Kirby

Grumblevolcano said:

The full version of the Direct reveal

Fall Geese

masterLEON said:

..abridged

Oh, this...

masterLEON said:

the KoF '94 intro

Dark-Luigi said:

Hey, it was good!

KingKRoolMain said:

Mama mia

Jamotello said:

the intro has a plot?

masterLEON said:

Today? Man, I guess I have to buy Smash soon, then.

Dark-Luigi said:

I still smell at tease.

Today

Jamotello said:

olney flat out lied!

Jamotello said:

it's 45 mins now.

masterLEON said:

I wish they had a Richter amiibo

Jamotello said:

mai....

I guess our time is up

masterLEON said:

aw, still good though

SheldonRandoms said:

It's been 13 years since the last one

Grumblevolcano said:

The Smash 4 costumes are back

masterLEON said:

Sarah, please

Jamotello said:

virtua fighter is an awesome skin.

masterLEON said:

WHAT?

Dark-Luigi said:

Watch it be Undertale of something again.

masterLEON said:

that's adorable

Jamotello said:

my favorite shodown character.

SheldonRandoms said:

OH SNAP

Dark-Luigi said:

About not inclding many tacks, I mean.

Dark-Luigi said:

I wonder why?

masterLEON said:

Samsho tracks, too? Madman!

Square Enix should feel bad for cheaping out with their ost.

Dark-Luigi said:

More than the other DLC fighters!

Grumblevolcano said:

25 times more than Final Fantasy

Grumblevolcano said:

50 songs

masterLEON said:

Just throw them all in there!

Dark-Luigi said:

Was there any doubt? It's his game after all.

That put a smile on my face. He did it!

masterLEON said:

Mii costumes for all the guest KoF characters maybe

Dark-Luigi said:

I'm keeping expectations in check, don't worry.

Dark-Luigi said:

Mayhap. Or something else???

Grumblevolcano said:

Very likely to just be Mii costumes revealed after this

Dark-Luigi said:

Who knows? He may give us a tiny, TINY tease of something.

Chunkboi79 said:

Glad Terry's out but this is a really long video for just terry. Rich history and I appreciate it

its am impressive amount of DLC and on-going support

Chunkboi79 said:

Alright, i got bored. Let me know if something happens.

KoekiieWoekiie- yep, bored of it but still like to keep an eye on what they are doing

Dark-Luigi said:

And, heck, I'll get Terry. I dig 2D fighters that aren't Street Fighter.

masterLEON said:

Dang, Sakurai is loading us up with his deep cut history

Dark-Luigi said:

Still need to get Banjo haha

Grumblevolcano said:

For Terry release date

Grumblevolcano said:

Yeah, late today/early tomorrow dependent on time zones seems a reasonable guess

KoekiieWoekiie said:

wait you are bored yet you are here?

Dark-Luigi said:

You think they'll drop Terry today?

Jamotello said:

we'll see a new mario kart on the switch.

Wish they did this level of DLC and support for Mario Kart

YAAAWN- so bored of how much stuff and attention Smash gets.

masterLEON said:

*heel

masterLEON said:

Raiden=hell, Big Bear=face

Dark-Luigi said:

It's like the "Guh-huh!" of this stream.

masterLEON said:

Even Mai's Fatal Fury 3/Real Bout costume would be too much, :-/

Dark-Luigi said:

But really, though. Their reason for not showing her was funny.

1 vs 3 seems unfair for the team facing Terry

Jamotello said:

i suspect the last minute will be 'yes we included her' and she's all covered up.

SheldonRandoms said:

They didn't have enough of the shadow realm to cover her up

Grumblevolcano said:

45 minutes makes sense now, more background + classic mode playthrough

masterLEON said:

Blue Mary BARELY made it in, methinks.

Dark-Luigi said:

Heck, even Bayonetta obscures her body.

Jamotello said:

sharona

KoekiieWoekiie said:

mai who?

Jamotello said:

sorry!

No Mai! Ha! That's hilarious! Too naughty to include for a game for Good Boys and Girls as Sakurai-san says. Love it!!!

Jamotello said:

yeah we all wanted in her when we were kids.

Chunkboi79 said:

give me anime tiddies or give me death!

ashenwolf said:

i have feeling that he want her in

Blame the age rating, not the game.

Dark-Luigi said:

Eh, kinda excepted.

Chunkboi79 said:

NO WAY

masterLEON said:

LMAO

Jamotello said:

hahaha

Dark-Luigi said:

Tsk...

masterLEON said:

Do it, Sakurai

Dark-Luigi said:

Noooooo...Maaaaaai...

masterLEON said:

Yes! The Psycho Soldier theme!

Dark-Luigi said:

We may get a surprise. You never know.

masterLEON said:

Everyone is here! LOL

Jamotello said:

yeah. sakurai's milking this. no pun intended.

masterLEON said:

@Jamotello They're saving her for last maybe.

Dark-Luigi said:

Or is she too "reveling"?

Jamotello said:

WE WANT MAI!!!

Jamotello said:

thanks, masterleon.

Dark-Luigi said:

Mai please?

masterLEON said:

But Andy and Joe would be his closest rivals

Jamotello said:

oh boy. cg mai shiranui. here we jiggly go!

masterLEON said:

@Jamotello No one else has a similar move set.

Jamotello said:

@Masterleon if terry is ryu, who was his ken in fatay fury?

masterLEON said:

Ha! Just like Real Bout Fatal Fury

SheldonRandoms said:

Press F for Garou jacket alt

Jamotello said:

once again, zero butt.

masterLEON said:

Unlimited super use past 100%, nice throwback to Fatal Fury

masterLEON said:

Most of his moves have basically the equivalents to FF/KoF, cool.

KoekiieWoekiie said:

i dont blame them either, it is just nice to see that he wont be played much online

SheldonRandoms said:

That's like Lucario getting damaged a lot

Jamotello said:

i wonder how deep this goes. some of those snk super moves were ridiculous figure-8 joystick gymnastics.

Are you ok? Buster Wolf!!

masterLEON said:

AWESOME!!

masterLEON said:

WHAA?! Holy crap!!

SheldonRandoms said:

SOY SAUCE

Dark-Luigi said:

Eh, I don't blame 'em.

KoekiieWoekiie said:

people won't play him because he will hard to play/master like ken and ryu

SheldonRandoms said:

POWAH DUNK!

masterLEON said:

Invincible frame, nice

Jamotello said:

first he took guile's kick, now he's taking charlies.

Jamotello said:

have we ever had a tekken character in smash?

masterLEON said:

You're a madman, Sakurai

SheldonRandoms said:

Sakurai controls all

KingKRoolMain said:

Ooooh comment section

Jamotello said:

i just realized. sakurai is controlling both of them. one at a time. isn't he?

Chunkboi79 said:

that dodge attack just moved his spot up on the tier list by a few slots

He's good at pronouncing moves in English

Jamotello said:

guile would like to have a word, terry.

Chunkboi79 said:

man look at the range on those moves.

KoekiieWoekiie said:

why do hate it

masterLEON said:

yes, power charge

Jamotello said:

yeah. crystal clear switch with chrome lettering. need to have one of those one day.

masterLEON said:

Oh, new arrangement of his BGM

Chunkboi79 said:

I hate the way these characters always look at their opponents.

Chunkboi79 said:

Anything with a chrome look is pretty slick

Jamotello said:

i think this is when someone says 'ok boomer'

masterLEON said:

Some don't like the build quality, but I kinda liked it. It even has a chrome 'SNK' logo on the back.

masterLEON said:

...to a TV

masterLEON said:

It had input lag, and there was undesired smoothing when connected with HDMI

Garou Densetsu is Fatal Fury in Japan, in case you don't know.

Jamotello said:

it was a great system if you liked arcade games.

SheldonRandoms said:

POWAH WAVE!

Chunkboi79 said:

masterLEON

Chunkboi79 said:

Was it not a good system?

Jamotello said:

everybody loves sakurai.

masterLEON said:

(unfortunately)

masterLEON said:

(I also have one of those)

Chunkboi79 said:

Sakurai you sly dog!

masterLEON said:

LMAO! Neogeo X

Jamotello said:

he has a laugh track....?

Jamotello said:

damn. arcade rentals is a damn good idea.

SheldonRandoms said:

600 console with each game being 250 bucks a pop

Jamotello said:

only if he grows tentacles like what he usually does off-cam.

masterLEON said:

KoF '94a Team England BGM

PoopScoop said:

if we were watching the american version, Sakurai would be dubbed instead of subbed

masterLEON said:

OMG, he's gonna play with 4 pro controllers!

SheldonRandoms said:

No translator guy

Grumblevolcano said:

PEGI is UK's age rating system

masterLEON said:

I got one of those!

PoopScoop said:

what is this pegi?

Chunkboi79 said:

masterleon agreed, I am glad he is getting representation!

Jamotello said:

nintendo IS life.

45 min. Please, Nintendo. I've got other things to do in life.

Jamotello said:

10 segundos!

masterLEON said:

@Chunkboi79 Well, that depends on the region and age of people. Terry is super hype for the FGC, South America, folks aged 30+, etc.

Chunkboi79 said:

oh snap nvm

Grumblevolcano said:

About Terry's history

Chunkboi79 said:

1 minute till showtime!!!

Dark-Luigi said:

I see. But hey, more fighters the better.

Grumblevolcano said:

Terry is the most obscure DLC fighter so far judging by reactions in September so @SheldonRandoms could be right

Dark-Luigi said:

Could be wrong, though.

Jamotello said:

what's your line again, olney? enough pfaffing about, and let's get on with it! something like that, i believe.

Dark-Luigi said:

I did hear that his series is pretty niche nowadays...

SheldonRandoms said:

Sakurai will announce Big the Cat as a playable fighter

Chunkboi79 said:

Tbh I don't know how much smash players care about Terry's background. Not being negative but i mean a sans mii costume got more hype

Dark-Luigi said:

Big or small, something just HAS to come out of this.

masterLEON said:

I guess Sakurai wanted to make a proper presentation for those who don't know Terry.

Dark-Luigi said:

My thoughts exactly.

Jamotello said:

look up chatterer cenobite. lovely person.

Chunkboi79 said:

Azooooz agreed, I hope they end up showing a fighter. Sakurai is a pretty massive troll so it wouldn't be unexpected.

PoopScoop said:

I like the word chatter

SheldonRandoms said:

Sakurai is going to go over Terry's history since so many people refer to him as "Ken with a hat"

Jamotello said:

or fuudo, and deverybody keeps asking where his wife is.

Jamotello said:

maybe kojima will show up to pimp death stranding or something.

Unnecessary long for a fighter reveal.

SheldonRandoms said:

I did, but then I ate the video since it reminded me of a pizza, and, uhhhhhh, didn't eat breakfast yet

Jamotello said:

anybody manage to pause the video yet in the proper shape of pac man?

Jamotello said:

he's just ash when he grows up. he absorbed pikachi into him to get his powers.

Was about to play Warframe before I've stumbled across this website.

Chunkboi79 said:

I hope he gets that brown alt costume from that one game.

PixelTavern said:

HIS FURY SHALL BE FATAL ON THE FIELD OF SMASH!

Jamotello said:

i went out on a limb, but i live dangerously.

TeslaChippie said:

I dunno Jamo, that might be a little wishful

Hi all. I almost forgot that we're getting new smash info.

AlexOlney said:

Woah.

Jamotello said:

i'm expecting to see terry bogard.

SheldonRandoms said:

If anyone gets a mii costume, then it NEEDS to be Ulala from Space Channel 5

Chunkboi79 said:

45 minutes is a long time to talk without a new fighter reveal. Mii costumes, a new mode, and an indepth look at Terry, his stage, and the new music will be more than enough to fill

Chunkboi79 said:

Im at work, crossing my fingers the captions work well this time around.

RupeeClock said:

Won't have the time to watch it now, but I can watch it when I get home

Expa0 said:

Oh nice, for once they're doing this at a reasonable hour (from my perspective).

Grumblevolcano said:

Hopefully the extra 20 minutes means more content.
