Lightning Dong boy


I wasn't sure the count would be right but I guess the next one will be Jae Hoon - I was expecting they would be both replaced by a new Tae Kwon Do student. Either more people other than Grant won't make it from MotW, or Andy and Joe are the DLC after Ken and Chun-Li and not base. Andy and Joe could be base only if Kain is DLC and Hokutomaru is skipped, but the only remaining new faces will wait for final DLC (I'm hoping Freeman is not skipped, and I'm assuming Gato makes it)

Well there we go, they're already announcing DLC pack 2 of 3 that will start with Glorio and Mini Veg'. It's odd that they're skipping over the rest of DLC pack 1 for Super Hero but they probably want to surf on the Daima release.
No date but surely they'll take their time with the reveals leaving some time for the anime to advance.

I brought it up because of the interview that said half of the 20+ DLC would be Daima.

Well, Daima ep 1 just completely flipped the entire Dragon Ball lore upside down. Hold tight.

Ghost of Yotei, from the Tsushima guys. Set in 1603 in Mt. Yotei (in Hokkaido, all the way up north). I don't think anything in particular was happening there at the time beside the unification, but it's nice to see Hokkaido featured in a big game like that. I guess we're hunting people from the losing side of Sekigahara fleeing the country.

I'm not too sure about the Kim skin theory. That teaser is not him kicking the big metal door like some savage beast, I'm sure it's him kicking soccer balls at the door, Shaolin Soccer style. Either it's some sort of mode like the parry training back in SF3 with Sean's basketballs, or he's a full blown character. Some people are thinking that he's playing for the Saudis who own SNK now and it's gotta be a direct demand from the Saudi prince.
But like Max Dood said, I'm in the "this is bullshit, where's Duck King"' camp.

Extended final trailer with more about the custom battles.
Happy to see Turles, Slug, Metal Cooler. Since the DLC count for the season pass is still over 20 extra characters on top of the surprise base extension, I'm expecting Piccolo Daimaoh, Zangya, maybe Paikuhan. And the rest from Super Hero after the Gammas (red Cell, Beast Gohan, orange Piccolo). Who else, Nova Shenron ?
edit
Furutani interview says the 3 DLC packs will be split between Super Hero and Daima. So no GT (Super 17), no movie (Zangya, Salza), no original DB (Daimaoh, Tao etc.), "can't talk about that" - for the first season anyway. and certainly no manga only arcs - Moro or Granolah. I don't know how many Daima versions we'll get, but Supre Hero being a focus sounds like we might get as far as teen Goten and Trunks in their superhero outfits.

Power Stone also mentions that appearances of some characters during endings have been changed, and that's probably Rouge's ending with her customers wishing to see her naked. Are there other endings that have different issues like copyrights rather than censorship ?

Everything up to marvel 2 is in this collection with rollback netcode and a somewhat in-depth training mode. I think this was what won the direct for me

The other shoe dropped at today's Nintendo Direct : CvSPro, CvS2, Power Stone 1 & 2, Project Justice, Plasma Sword, SFA3 Upper (the one with Fei Long, Hawk, Guile, Dee Jay, Evil Ryu, not the one with Ingrid, Yun, Eagle, Maki), and also a pile of pixel trash because why not. For 2025. They also replayed the Marvel trailer (it showed Norimaro in the Direct but not in the trailer that's on Nintendo of America's channel), with added dates for the digital and physical releases (september and november).

His eyes look weird, but the animations are fantastic. I see Fire Kick as a Target Combo into Crack Shoot too, cool.

I for one am SHOCKED that it uses the name Perfect Cell for his post-King Kai return and not Super Perfect Cell like it should.
Also I thought that they had started officially using child Gohan and kid Gohan or something in English some games ago, leaving teen Gohan for the one who is actually a teenager and not an adult (17), but here we are with the 11 year old version being called teen Gohan still. Oh well.

So you do have the choice mid mission to switch characters to change your approach.
Dog petting !
Underwater crawling ! Breathing through bamboo
The kannabou, swinging the weighted end of a kusarigama to smack multiple targets, assisted involuntary seppuku... The new combat system looks nice and varied. I didn't see to much of stabbing people straight through the armor with a katana, which is always a lame take on sword fighting, so that's good.
Such massive Tenchu flashbacks, I'm here for it
The target info on the top left made me wonder if there will be a focus on actual ninja work after all, which was mostly about gathering info from locals and scouting where enemies and local lords were settled and / or currently sitting or disrupting a camp into a shitshow, none of it being assassination (again, the commentaries from the people introducing the video had the wrongest take on "historical shinobi assassination"...) I don't really expect it though, it's probably the bare minimum like the previous games, where chosing to have a pointer on the map or just gathering general directions wasn't such a big deal. Just walk in this general direction and you'll fall face to face with your target.
The comment they made on stage about "viewing things through the eyes of a foreigner" made me wonder if this is gonna cover the couple decades until William Adams shows up, given how they love to throw as many historical names as they can, but that would be late in the game.

Grant is back with a tryhard redesign and a lame ultimate, uh. Jenet with the EX cancels looks relentless.

Assassin of Tsushima 2 gets a (multilingual) trailer, and a new name beside "Red"

And Yasuke gets a kannabou, nice.

"Samurais and shinobis are not the same thing so we had to split them" uh, okay, that's... the exact opposite of the historical truth. I know, popular fiction doesn't follow history and they're talking about the modern archetype, but that phrasing is so wrong its unfortunate.
