Nintendo has revealed that the next Spirit Event for Super Smash Bros Ultimate is due to happen tomorrow 5th June. This event will celebrate the 24th anniversary of the Nintendo 64 launch in Japan, as the much loved system launched there back in June 1996, roughly a year before we received it here in Europe. Also as a tribute to the legendary console, players will get 6.4x experience if they win one of the matches. Siliconera has listed some of the spirits expected in the event, but we shall have to wait for the full list.
- Blargg from Yoshi’s Story
- Chunky Kong from Donkey Kong 64
- Deku Link from The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask
- Don Bongo from Yoshi’s Story
- Flare from Custom Robo
- Happy Mask Salesman from The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask
- Lanky Kong from Donkey Kong 64
- Malon from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
- Postman from The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask
- Saki Amamiya from Sin and Punishment
- Tiny Kong from Donkey Kong 64
You will be able to participate from 5th June – 7th June. A tweet hasn’t been published yet by either Nintendo of America or Nintendo Europe, so it is unclear if the event is only for gamers in Japan.
I thought it was the release date for the new character.
you thought wrong
Oh hey what’s up?
Could it be a tease of a Nintendo online update?
Part of me wants to think so, but another part of me thinks that line of thinking is too deep a dive.
If Nintendo isnt going to work on a Dk64 sequel then put the N64 on the Eshope like Wii and Wii U. For some dumb reason Nintendo is sluggish on sequels except Mario and Zelda. Sometimes they can bypass 2 generation consoles. Why dont they work on the game immediately? I already know I have to fork over $400 to play Astral Chain 2. After all lazy Platinum didnt make W102. So why would I assume they going to make Astral chain 2?
I wish the devoloper of Pokemon Coliseum would make a sequel. That is better than Sword and Shield. That was the hardest Pokemon game I ever played and it had EXP Share. Why wont Gamefreak let them make a Pokemon game? I dont want no easy Pokemon game for $59.99.
