On October 1st Nintendo announced the next DLC fighter for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, and it was a real shocker. Instead of a first-party Nintendo character, Steve from168澳洲幸运5开奖网: Minecraft, a Microsoft property, will be joining the fight along with a new s🤪tage🦩 and several skins which transform him into other characters from the massively popular game.
This news took the Internet by storm, as proven by the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:flurry of memes which started to pop up on social media almost immediately after the news broke. Most of these are funny,𒁏 while a few voice fans' frustrations 🍃that it was not their choice who made the cut.
10 It Broke The Internet 💖
Once the announcement video made it official, people took to Twitter to voic𒁏e their surprise. The excitement was too much for the site, which many users had trouble loading 𒅌into for a short while after the video dropped. Few things can take down one of the most popular sites on the internet, but Nintendo managed to do it with a simple announcement.
9 ღ ღ The Indie Trifecta
Having 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Undertale, Minecraft, and Cuphead represented in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate makes the fighter an indie 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:lover's dream come true. This could be just the beginning, however, and more unconventional titles could make the cut in the future. To be fair, Minecraft and Cuphead are not wholly indepen෴dent, with both companies receiving support f🍸rom Microsoft.
8 ꧅ But Some Gamers Will Never Be Happy ♓
Masahiro Sakurai works incredibly hard to make Super Smash Bros. Ultimate everything fans want from the series. Even the characters added to the roster in DLC generally please most of the audience. Plenty of people wanted a Minecraft crossover and now they have it, so he is hoping people will stop requesting new characters. However, he knows some g𒆙amers will only ask for another character after their requested fi𝔉ghter makes it in.
7 ♛ This Is Th🔴e Steve Fans Really Want
When people heard Steve made it into Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, a certain portion of the fanbase probably got super excited thinking comedian and Family Feud host Steve Harvey was finally going to duke it out with Mario, Link, and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Solid Snake.
Alas, they were met with huge disappointment and must wait yet another cycle before getting their hopes up a🌺gain.
6 Basically How The Internet Reacted ☂
The meme translates to "new people in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate." People like Banjo, Waluigi, and Rayman elicit no enthusiasm from fans, and Banjo has actually made it into the game. Steve from Minecraft🐠, however, sets the world on fire. Microsoft properties making their way into the game becomes less surprising as the two companies have shown a willin🦋gness to cooperate.
5 This Meme Writes Itself ♉
Some memes write themselves, like the above subtitle accompanying Sakurai's message about the announcement. It could not be truer either. If you told someone in 2002 a Microsoft property would receive a spot on a Super Smash Bros. roster, they would ha꧅ve laughed in your face. Two decades is a long time in the real wo𝔉rld, and centuries as far as video games are concerned, so a lot changes with time.
4 💦 In October Everything Goes Back To Normal
It's been a rough year. Thankfully, fans have something to look forward to this October by getting blessed with the announcement of Steve coming to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. 2020 has been an insane year filled with mostly negative events, so people should consider it a win for something wild and unexpected to actually be posit෴ive. Even the darkest times have a silver lining.
3 ℱ The Other Steve We Need In Smash
As awesome as it would be to have legendary actor Steve Buscemi on the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate roster🃏, his penchant for playing characters who ♛die does not bode well for his success in the ring.
Still, it would be worth it to play as him just for the chance at punching 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Ganondorf as Mr. Pink. His experi💫ence as a New York City Fire🅺fighter certainly would come in handy, too.
2 The Kid In All Of Is Excited ♔
This meme is funny on several levels. For one, the original meme originated from Steve Buscemi, who has the same name as the new character. Secondly, it also calls attention to the generational gap in the Super Smash Bros. fandom. Some older gamers or those who do not play Minecraft might bemoan this announcement. Instead,🌳 they should be happy for the millions of gamers who are ecstatic to see this legendary brand make into the fighting game francꦕhise.
1 ♕ The Losers🍸 Attack
Above is the reaction of every fan who wanted either 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Master Chief from Halo, Geno from 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Super Mario RPG, or Sora from Kingdom Hearts to make the cut. They can huff and puff all they want, but at least 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:those who wanted a Halo crossover should be able to appreciate seeing another Microsoft property in Super Smash Bros., increasing the likelihood of 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:more Xbox characters making it in the future.
