While this month's Nintendo Direct turned out to be Pokemon-focused, that won't be the end of Nintendo related news for January. A Super Smash Bros. Ultimate livestream presentation will take place soon, giving us 35-minutes of pure Smash Bros. goodness. Most importantly, a new DLC fighter will be revealed at the end of the stream, so fans will certainly want to catch the big announcement! You can tune in on January 16th, at 15:00 CET/14:00 UK time.

The thing that he does with his hands looks like it will be Wolverine.

He's holding up three fingers in the video thumbnail, so it's clearly going to be three Fire Emblem characters, all at once. Because we desperately need more Fire Emblem characters. gg Sakurai

I'll laugh so hard if that happens. I need my daily dose of salt.

I have a suspicion that something big is coming to Smash beyond new fighters. Like maybe a whole expansion pack. Nintendo seems to be all about expansions these days, so I wouldn't be shocked to see something like that up their sleeves coming to Ultimate.

But not during this stream. I thought i had read this was a direct, but upon reading again i see its just another fighter reveal and live stream explanation. And that's cool by me.

Ryu Hayabusa

I think those stand as the current front runners, maybe Crash Bandicoot too But I'm always ready to be surprised when it comes to Smash.
