"of course kirby survived" *bold of you to assume sakurai would kill his own son*

Ending animation: "Everyone is going to die" *Sakurai pulls an animator to the side* "Not this one."

Seeing him at his best. What a way to remember Etika. Thanks RoseKami

I can't believe he is gone. Well I guess we will see you on the other side my man. Rest In Peace.

Can we talk about how every single character tries to evade, escape, or attack the beams of light... And Wii Fit just decides to pose.

How Smash Ultimate was made Sakurai:"I wish I could bring all these fighters" Person:"they'll be there in spirit" Sakurai:"hm spirit you say" *villainous laughter*

Rip... he will be missed. He is a true joyconboy

Picking characters for smash: Sakurai: Let's put in another Mario character. Who will it be? Person: Why not waluigi? He's a fan favourite! Sakurai: Because the the spot has already been taken by... Uh... *looks around* This plant! Yeah!

My favorite quote from this one is definetely "WHO WANTED THIS?"

Melee had Pichu Brawl had RoB Smash 4 had Wii fit Ultimate has plant

Holy shit I never noticed 11:29 until after Pyra/Mythra were added to smash. I can’t believe how many characters were added that Etika always wanted (Min Min, Steve, Pyra/Mythra, Sora). I really wish he could’ve been here to see it all man.

Etika: No! Pyra and Mythra! If only you were here with us to see, man. Hope your in a better place.

Smash Ultimate Revealed *EVERYONE IS HERE* World of Light Revealed *EVERYONE IS DEAD*

Etika 2015: WHO SAW THIS?? Etika 2018: WHO WANTED THIS?

11:28 i wish he was still around to see that pyra and mythra got into smash :(

*ETIKA: HE PULLED A THAWNOOS!*

“How much characters are they gonna kill?” Oh Etika, you don’t even know

Without the chat and sponsors I can feel the silence wtf

We did get pyra/mythra, 2 years later

This might be an unpopular opinion, but I HATE leakers.

“How many characters are they gonna kill...” lmao you’ll see :)

If no one got the Wii Fit Trainer reference during the incineroar trailer, I can explain. What she is essentially doing is trying to tag in incineroar like in professional wrestling where a tag team is attempting to tag his partner in from a downed state. But incineroar is denying the tag and turning his back on Wii fit trainer which is a common trope for a whestler to turn on his partner signifying a break up between a tag team. So to summarize it, Incineroar is leaving Wii Fit Trainer in the ring to suffer while the other tag team is going to fuck her up. Pretty clever Nintendo

rest in peace, desmond.

"HE PULLED A THANOS" - Etika 2k18

Piranha Plant is Sakurai's punishment to us for asking too much.

*literally nothing happens* Etika: "GOKU GOKU GOKUUU!!!!"

You don’t understand how happy I am that Etika is back

I love how snake just hides in a box will everybody is dying

Person: Whos your main? Me: I main *P L A N T*

6:08 "How many Characters are they going to Kill" *OOF*

Earlier on the reveal "HOW MANY CHARACTERS THEY GONNA KILL?!" *FORESHADOWING IS REAL*

If only he knew pyra and Mythra are in the game now

"I think its time we should add Waluigi-" "Nah bro... *smokes weed* piranha plant..." "Really? I mean, we have plenty of other optio-" "Bro, just put him in." "...o-ok..."

I actually like the piranha plant. Its funny and done as a joke. Lol i dont know why everyone has their panties in a twist. Its a meme character. They did it for fun. It didnt take away from another character. They just made it on the side for kicks. Edit cuz some are confused. i used meme to mean joke. I didnt want to seem repetitive lol.

You know the newest fighter..... *Everybody choosing good ideas* *Nintendo:* I luv plants

RIP 😥 Joy con boyz forever

Marvel:Thanos is a god! Sakurai: Hold my beer.

Thanos killed half the universe *_Sakurai killed everyone except Kirby_*

I missed Desmond a lot today. Rest in peace my guy.

That Pyra and Mythra comment aged poorly, and only because he didn't get a chance to see his waifus in Smash. Etika, I hope heaven gets you free access to the DLC my man, we know you would've loved seeing Mythra and Pyra make it.

35:50 for Piranha Plant 39:35 for World of Light

Why sakurai make us lose no nut November in the first day

I don't know about you guys, but the music at the end is god tier. I personally prefer the trailer music and the menu music, but there's something about the voiced one that's hitting some other spots soooo well.

Friend 1: *wins 10 matches in a row Friend 2: yo your to good turn your power down to seven Friend 1: *wins 5 more matches* Friend 2: yo your to good stop playing the game

I love how Snake was already in his cardboard box when everyone was scrambling for their lives. And the slight silent pause for when the cutscene transitioned to Snake before getting disintegrated is hilarious as f*ck man😂

27:09 white Etika.

6:12 “How many characters are they gonna kill here?!” Oh, isn’t it ironic.

6:08 "HOW MANY CHARACTERS ARE THEY GONNA KILL HERE?!" ... ironic, considering the adventure mode reveal cutscene...

"Everyone's here!" Just to die from the looks of it.

no chat... white lone wall background... looks like his old mewtwo reaction days, he did a hard reset... everything back to zero

27:11 White Etika appears as an assist trophy

June : Everyone is here ! November : Everyone is dead !

God Bless. Couldn't find this shit anywhere else.

The Piranha Plant reveal is still the best thing. Too freaking funny.

It warms my heart to see etika happy reacting like this to the smash direct again

This is the 3rd time re-watching this direct to see people’s reactions

He's all alone.

Honestly couldn't believe Shadow wasn't playable.

Meanwhile, at Nintendo..... "Should we put in Geno, Sakurai-Chan?"" Sakurai: "Hm....he's highly requested, people would LOVE him, and we could revive a dead character.....nah, we can find others." "What about Isaac from Golden Sun?" Sakurai: "AH! Golden Sun, the RPG rep everyone hyped during the ballot but no one bought when the 3rd game came out.....like his games, back to being an assist trophy like all the other broken dreams." "What about Shadow the Hedgehog?" Sakurai: "YES!" *GASPS* Sakurai: ".....as an assist trophy. *in the distance, far away....GOD DAMNIT!!!" "Sir, we've received word that Microsoft will allow us to use Banjo-Kazooie, maybe we should add him in?" Sakurai: "Hm...that's a great idea, we would build on an already great relationship with Microsoft, maybe even get some more Microsoft representation....maybe in the future, not now" "Sir, we can't end with just 2 characters, we've given you so many opti-----" Sakurai: "You know, I love my devoted and loving smash fans so much, let's do it, Isaac, Banjo, Shadow, Geno, and hell, lets throw in the rando Chorus Kids that I thought of once and never again, AND a lets go a little retro with Mach Rider. Of course Ken was already in, but he will be the added bonus!" *Everyone Cheers, the room erupts into applause." *5 MONTHS LATER, 1 WEEK BEFORE NOVEMBER DIRECT* *Dev Bursts Through Door" "SIR! EVERYONE WAS JUST LEAKED TO THE PUBLIC!!! THERE'S NO SURPRISES, THEY KNOW EVERYTHING!!!!" *The room turns to look at Sakurai, who slowly sits down* Sakurai: ....... *Sir....?" Sakurai: "CANCEL THE GAME!!!" "Sir, it's been too long, we've nearly finished everything, World of Light is completely done! We just added Sora's part to it" Sakurai: "KILL THEM ALL!!! REMOVE EVERY LEAKED FIGHTER" "Sir, that would devastate everyone!!!! We can't do that!" Sakurai: "REMOVE EVERY FIGHTER, AAAAANNNNDD....." *GASPS* Sakurai: "GIVE THEM A POTTED F%#*ING PLANT AS THE FINAL FIGHTER IN THE ROSTER, THEY MUST LITERALLY PAY FOR WHOEVER WE SAY CAN COME BACK AS DLC". And that, my friends, is how the Grinch stole smash.

I would like to point out that the cast was about to take on roughly SEVEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY Master Hands.

In a way Piranha Plant is the retro character

Marvel my ass Nintendo is the most ruthless

Well, this new Etika sure is very different from the old Etika.

Sonic: i am the fastest thing alive *gets killed by light

They turned smash bros into a dam jrpg

the DLC is... *TOYS R US GIRAFFE* *BEYBLADER* *SANS UNDERTALE* *MINECRAFT STEVE* *AND MARK CUBAN*

The thing thanosed all the characters except Kirby but since bayonetta is gone we don’t have to worry about anything

40:21 They don’t feel so good

9:27 I like how he goes from pure anguish to completely calm in a few seconds lmao

6:08 "How many characters they gonna kill, here?" 40:22

Sakurai: My game, so uhhh, my character survives >:l

Piranha Plant > Waluigi Fight me

I'll be using the custom balance for the return of the Ganandorf challenge

41:31 "SAKURAI PULLED A THANOS" That got me so hard. Edit 1: Wow! 34 likes! This is the most I've ever had on a comment!

Sakurai couldn't add Rex to the roster, but is working on a house plant as DLC.

So Villager in Korean is BOWTOME

39:48 when I see a spider

RIP erika this was good memories for me and this video made me laugh for days but this is how life's is for some people bye and get some rest you legend

Kirby is the only one who surived...another tribute to iwata?

You didn't get why Incineroar turned away from the Wii Fit Trainer when she had her hand stuck out? Clearly you don't watch a lot of wrestling. Incineroar is classified as the Heel Pokemon, as in Wrestling Heel, in other words, a Villain Wrestler. The scenario was a tag team match. The Wii Fit Trainer was losing, so she was trying to tag in her Partner, who happened to be Incineroar. and being the Heel, he rejects the tag. I guess he wanted to throw the match to screw over his partner because she was a Wrestling Face. AKA, a Hero Wrestler.

Incineror will make for a great allmight mod

6:09 "How many characters are they gonna kill here?" oh boy just you wait

Lol the online button looks like a grenade XD

screw the haters. I'm collecting spirits baby.

Hi Desmond, here we are again, tomorrow is the final smash presentation, and although you couldn't get to see the Aegis or Steve make it into the game, let it be known that the community has never and probably will never forget you, and although we wish you were here to witness such an amazing event, we know that you are in a better place, Joycon Boyz forever ♡

He is kidding about how serious he is about Goku, right? Right?

I really enjoyed watching the heart rate meter in the bottom corner.

33:03 lol This is going to be Etika’s choice of costume. And he’s going to nickname it “JOYCON BOYZ”

R.i.p Etika Rest in piece.

The Custom Balance is per-character, not per-player. It is not a handicap option. Example: If you think Bayonetta is too strong, you can use Custom Balance on to decrease her power for local play. Anyone who picks her gets the weaken version.

Why do people want Waluigi? He would be another mario character with the same moveset as most of the other ones. Pirahna Plant is at least something unique.

Goku is already deconfirmed because tv characters are not allowed.

This will always be my favorite reaction of his, can't believe he's gone.. see you space cowboy

36:20 39:30 Don’t thank me, watch it.

I love seeing Etika being so happy at smash ultimate,it makes me happy :D

It’s not a Direct without Etika

Rest easy, homie.

Wait a second did Etika requested Pyra & Mythra? Could this mean that Pyra & Mythra exist because of our beloved Gamer Etika wanted & Mr. Sakurai watched his vids when he realeased Sephiroth?

Yoshis final smash is great
