My Bogard is ready.
Nintendo
During Wednesday’s Nintendo Direct, the next Super Smash Bros. character was revealed: Terry Bogard, from the Neo Geo title Fatal Fury. Bogard is expected to be available in November 2019.
That’s not all. Banjo & Kazooie will also be available to play from… today! Yes, the bear and bird are ready to fight. After the Nintendo Direct aired Wednesday, Smash Bros. director Masahiro Sakurai gave a little run-through with the new fighter. In addition, Sakurai announced the fabled Home Run Contest would be returning to Smash with the Banjo-Kazooie update on Sept. 4.
Nintendo also announced the initial five DLC fighters originally promised for Smash will be joined by even more characters which are now in development — it didn’t provide any hints on who or when we should expect them.
How about we check in with the fan reaction? Oh… oh god.
No idea who Terry Bogard is or whatever but still a super cool announcement. Also more fighters confirmed so I still have hope for Cuphead, Crash, Paper Mario, Spyro and Geno
