I'm guessing this game is planned for October, but they're not fully certain if it'll be ready then, so that's why they haven't announced a date yet. Anyway, this game is looking a lot better. There's so much other games I want more, though, so I'm not getting it right away. But its definitely one I'm looking at for later.

I'm hyped tbh. I don't get what people are having issues with. This looks way better than Fates IMO.

I'm guessing we'll get the usual "Final Mix" content for this game in DLC form.

Huh so Season 2 is primarily focusing on Veterans? So we're looking at Gilgamesh, Tifa, Laguna, Prishe, Gabranth, and maybe Feral Chaos? If they don't care about Chaos then we could potentially see one more. Gabranth reasonably could include a "Basch" themed outfit as well, of course. With these characters that'd give us 3 characters for every main game universe except: 1, 2, 3, 9, 13, 14, 15. With 14 and 15 only having one each. For any "new" characters I'd lean on second characters from 14 and 15, or a third from 9. Gaius seems to be the best candidate from 14. Otherwise I have no comment as I don't know much about 14. I think 15 could be really interested in how they play it out. I'm still not sure on it being Ardyn because I feel like Ardyn is too close to Noctis, though the daemon gimmick with him could help it out better. Otherwise, I lean on it potentially being Ravus. If they don't want to go with an antagonist, there's plenty of really good options. Prompto and Ignis I think are the better picks there. For 9, there's so many good picks to choose from. Garnet is the most obvious one, though we already do have a summoner in the game. Maybe she can still do something with her specific unique summons though. And obviously Vivi is always a good pick.

I switched away from Kirby first chance I got.

I've got a fair few, all of them are from summoning or upgrading lower level spirits. I've only beaten a few Ace spirits and 0 Legend so far. My Legends: Isaac (Dark Dawn; I summoned Isaac and then upgraded), Queen Elincia, Skull Kid & Majora's Mask, Zelda (Ocarina of Time), Dr. Kawashima (Concentration Training), Ho-oh, Sheriff

You couldn't do it. The ghosts turn blue only for the current player, which can't work on Switch.

Eh, this was specifically on NVIDIA. Its the chip itself that causes the issue.

I'd already been guessing that Xion would be part of the new Organization.

I do think its a RIP on Geno and also Elma (the game didn't sell well and isn't being ported to Switch). Its probably a boon for first-party characters in general. However, Nintendo didn't exactly pick the characters. They had a list of choices which Sakurai narrowed down. So Sakurai still had the final say, its just the initial list wasn't his.

This isn't how trademarks work. Trademarks are strictly for marketing purposes. If they didn't renew the trademark, someone else could snatch it up and Microsoft might have to rename the Banjo series to something else if they actually wanted it to continue. But they still own the IP. That doesn't change because copyrights aren't trademarks. Trademarks are exclusively for using a specific word or phrase, or an image, to represent a franchise across multiple mediums (such as video games or toys). A good example of this is Custom Robo, whose only trademark expired and was not renewed. But there's still Custom Robo content in Smash Ultimate (which really makes things interested for the franchises that did get renewed trademarks...) UPDATE: Something I forgot to mention is a huge case of this factor. The Harvest Moon series. In the west, Harvest Moon was published exclusively by Natsume, and they owned the trademark in the west. When Marvelous, the new owners of the franchise, decided to go with a different publishing company in the west, Natsume lost access to the franchise. However, Natsume still owned the trademark for Harvest Moon, so the original Harvest Moon series was released in the west as Story of Seasons, and Natsume started publishing different games entirely under the Harvest Moon brand name. RESUME: Of course not. Only five have been confirmed so far and are all expected to release by February 2020. However, there's a strong possibility they will just to extend the lifespan of the game. I don't think they ever said this. I think they just said you can get piranha plant for free if you purchase the game early. The implication, to me, is that its only free if you get the game and register it (if its physical) before February 2019 or whatever, after which its a standalone purchase.

I don't think that'll happen at all, honestly. One or the other, not both.

Yeah, its really random when they don't want a playable character to cross over with an NPC version of the same character. DK and Duck Hunt can interact with their 8-bit selves but standard Adult Link makes Conductor Link get replaced by Alfonzo. I'm really hoping they do add Isaac as DLC. But I appreciate all the love GS is getting regardless. I'm really mixed on Sora getting included, but frankly I'd much rather have Sora over Geno. I have heard that the other big Square Enix IP (other than Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts, I mean), Dragon Quest, might be even more complex to get a character for, and I think Sora was far more requested than Dragon Quest anyway. Plus with KH coming out, it'd be highly advantageous for SE to get Sora in Smash as a promo. The main thing I think won't happen is Disney characters getting added into Smash in other roles (like Spirits or costumes). We'd probably only see KH original characters in that regard.
