Thoughts on the Latest Smash Direct

I was away from the Internet when the Smash Direct took place, but I've caught up on what I've missed.

1. Cloud and his Final Fantasy Stage are available now. I haven't bought them yet as of this blog entry, but I will probably get them soon.

and Bayonetta from the Bayonetta series of games are also joining the game as playable characters. (Corrin's Smash trailer is linked. I'm not sure if I can post a link to Bayonetta's trailer though, so I will refrain from doing so for now.) I will admit that I don't know much about either of them, but they both look like fun characters to use. I believe I also read that Bayonetta was the character that got the most votes from the people who voted on which character(s) they wanted to see in the game. Bayonetta will also come with a stage called the Umbra Clock Tower stage. Both character and stage, along with Corrin, will be available in February of next year.

3. A bunch of new Mii Fighter Outfits are also being released. A couple of them are available now, but the rest will come out in February. Mii Outfits never interested me too, but I might still look through them to see if I want any of them.

4. The Amiibos for Ryu, Roy, and ROB with Famicom colors will be released on March 16, 2016. Corrin, Bayonetta, and Cloud will also get Amiibos, but no date for their release was revealed.

5. The DLC released for Smash Bros. in February will be last content released for the game.

Overall, I'm excited that we are getting characters from different games in Smash Bros. I wish we had gotten another character from Xenoblade Chronicles (Melia in particular), but I'm not going to complain about what was given to us. Corrin looks like he/she will be a really fun character to use, and Bayonetta looks to be an interesting character as well.

What do you guys think of the info revealed today?
