Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Nintendo Direct announced at EVO 2018

Three days remain

In a surprise announcement just before the Super Smash Bros. Melee final at EVO 2018, it was revealed that a Nintendo Direct focused on the upcoming Super Smash Bros. Ultimate will take place on August 8 at 10:00 ET/7:00 PT.

Yes, that is three days from now. Say what you will about Nintendo’s press habits but I love these little surprises we get from time to time. There may still be hope for Waluigi to be more than just an assist trophy. Stay strong, fellow believers.

Tune in 8/8 at 7am PT for a Super #SmashBrosUltimate Direct livestream, featuring new game information delivered by director Masahiro Sakurai! pic.twitter.com/Df3xxTCTGR
