This actually kind of annoys me because I want to see who it is but last year was the one time I watched the Game Awards and it was an absolutely miserable experience. Now I'm not sure if I want to do that again or if I want to try and find the trailer later without being spoiled on who it is. Though I'm guessing given the venue it's not going to be someone I especially care for. A lot of the super mainstream picks like Crash and Sora I'm pretty massively meh on. I'm honestly going to wait for the trailer videos to be posted tonight.

Thinking about it I think I'll consider it a victory if it's not Jonesy. ... Though I really have no idea what the appeal of Crash is supposed to be.
At least if he did get in we'd probably for once have a decent forest stage, though.

Closest thing to a PlayStation rep we'll probably get in the game, the joking feud in the old PSX commercials where Crash was calling out Mario outside NOA headquarters, being one of the last major platformer mascots NOT in Smash at this point, promotion for the new game that came out recently (and I half expect a Switch port to be announced sometime in the near future)...there may be others but those are the main reasons I can think about for why he would appeal to be in Smash.

I kind of mean more the Crash series as a whole. To me it's always been just kind of a mediocre platformer that couldn't be more blatantly ripping off Sonic and Donkey Kong. But eh, Crash has his fandom and there's demand for him. If he happens I won't be happy about it but I won't mind.

Let the speculation BEGIN! Rugal Bernstein, because I want an SNK Boss.

Yeah, I didn't remotely see this coming. I can't really claim to be excited for it but sure, I'm down.

Yeah, Sepiroth is a pretty damn decent pick. Not what I expected at all.

Totally didn’t see that one coming, I’m excited for Sephiroth.

That is all. Seriously, does Sakurai have some pent up frustration about doing the series we don't know about? Because that's not even the first time Mario's died in these trailers.

seriously though I got no problem with him... pretty good pick especially to get people to pick up the new pack.

That is all. Geez, Nintendo's mascot getting casually killed off. Does Sonic have a no stabbing contract?

Nah, I think it's more due to Mario being Nintendo's flagship character. What better way to show off a new Smash character by having them kill him?
