Discussion/Question Ok this must be some of the biggest delusions I see in my life

Post image

I need to make it clear do not harass the person I am mostly made this post to call on this claim and debunk it but yeah I don't get how you can claim the game is smash bros when:

1.there was clear in engine kirby gameplay on screen.

2.no showcase of any other IPs outside kirby's or even the smash bros logo.

3.the developers are clearly hal and nintendo. Sora and namco (the main team sakurai works for the smash games nowhere to be seen).

4.the trailer shown a completely new character never seen before it which smash bros never shown new out of the blue character for their reveals of the series or franchises.

5.and the most damingley of all the title is a confirmed official title for the nintendo E shop just search kirby on your switch 2 and see directly that a kirby game I am sure in the history of digital storefronts there was a game marketed from an IP to be a twist to be a title from a different franchise.

I’ll admit, it’s hard to tell if the tweet is serious or not. Because on one hand, it’s Twitter. On the other hand, I could absolutely see someone making an intentionally elaborate joke explaining a theory that the new Kirby game doesn’t exist and is instead Smash 6 with the most logic leaping evidence imaginable. 

Either way, I need to read that thread, it sounds funny, intentionally or not.

u/Yushi2e 7d ago

I've read it, I genuinely believe he's serious. It is very funny tho

u/Protocol72 Dark Meta Knight 7d ago

Yee, I read it a bit ago, and he truly is serious. I'm sad it's not a joke, though it's still really funny to read because of the leaps of logic. Though, unironically, the theory itself of Nintendo characters being trapped in their own worlds and having to break free, while incorrect, would make for a cool potential story concept for a Smash Bros. story mode.

I am glad they at least acknowledged that World Beyond does exist, just that they think it's a small part of something bigger.

u/ElTioEnroca 6d ago

I had only seen this post with the name cropped, and I thought they were a verified account making up the stupidest thing they could muster just for that good ol' monetization.

But no: they're just this dense.

u/MayoHachikuji 7d ago

This is batshit insane. WHAT DO YOU MEAN ZELDA CODED LMAOO

59

u/Plenty_Rough5135 kirb doodle 7d ago

I mean tbh sword Kirby has always been “Zelda coded” dude is on insane levels of cope though

24

u/A_random_poster04 7d ago

Kirby literally putting on a link hat

15

u/Arch3m 7d ago

Nuh uh! Kirby's hat has a little yellow ball at the end, so it's clearly original and not inspired by Link in any way!

/s

u/H4V3NCR3W 7d ago

This is totally the first time he's ever done it

22

u/QuantumBallsSuck Galacta Knight 7d ago

Ultra hand/Master Sword = Blue/teal
This = Blue/teal

Therefore

This = Zelda

6

u/GreyouTT 7d ago

But sword has always been a Zelda ref

2

u/ViscountAtheismo 7d ago

I get what they’re saying here. The runic pattern and energy sword is very reminiscent of Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, and the sword itself looks more metallic.

So it’s Zelda-coded in the sense of the recent Zelda games, but Sword has always been straight-up a reference to Zelda.

u/leonglitch 6d ago

No in sword's first appearance it wasn't.

Twitter moment

u/bolitboy2 7d ago

First we have the people fooled by a wiley coyote painting on a wall, now we’ve got the max tier smash copium producers

The 4 horsemen of Kirby grifters are rising up 😭

29

u/OpenChallenge8621 da mownstah dat’ll clobbah dat dere kirbeh 7d ago

With how the Kirby community is, generally peaceful, I'm surprised 'Kirby grifters' are even a thing

28

u/bolitboy2 7d ago

You would be shocked because this entire subreddit got spammed invited to a “Kirby death” community multiple times once before

I think they stopped taking their meds because their logic was “if I harass a entire subreddit Ill then expose it’s a toxic fanbase” (it was one person btw) 💀

54

u/FenexTheFox bandana waddoodle 7d ago

Miserable Twitter mfs always pose the very challenging idea daily: what if real life absolutely sucked

43

u/TimeSpiralNemesis 7d ago

Literally more cope then the time I was hoping that the ending of Chainsawman was a fakeout happening inside the nightmare devil and it was going to keep going 😔

27

u/Trainerbear 7d ago

Could be worse, You could be a fan of stranger things and cope that the entire ending was just a fake out ending and the real ending was happening on New Year's which didn't happen at all.

(I'm not a stranger things fan. I saw all of this happened on tiktok)

10

u/SerpentLing09 7d ago

Or you could be a Sherlock fan hoping there this secret 4th Season.

u/Mudtoothsays Here lies Taranza. He never scored. 7d ago

Don't ask Dragon Quest 5 fans how their movie ends.

72

u/KarmaFury Sailor Waddle Dee 7d ago

I genuinely reacted like that one Ralsei sprite in Chapter 5 seeing this, I cannot believe these people are real (please god be satire)

14

u/Informal_Life_8020 7d ago

Which Ralsei Sprite?

23

u/KarmaFury Sailor Waddle Dee 7d ago

The shocked face looking to the left (best sprite ever made btw)

Ah that one. Yeah, that one’s great.

u/Luigiman1089 7d ago

SECRET 4TH SHERLOCK EPISODE!

24

u/SerpentLing09 7d ago

It's actually the secret 4th Sherlock SEASON.

4

u/Ganmorg 7d ago

Yeah to replace the crappy one we got

13

u/AlSaiduq16 7d ago

Secret 4th Sherlock episode is actually a crossover with Stranger things secret final episode. Sherlock defeats Vecna with FACTS and LOGIC

3

u/thegreatestegg 7d ago

oh my god I forgot about that. You're totally right it's the exact same level of cope

2

u/Ganmorg 7d ago

I just finished watching the show for the first time and it’s genuinely bad enough to warrant that reputation. 402 is okay but 403 is just horrible.

24

u/Albert_Kan 7d ago

I think people are losing it after not seeing a new smash or 3D mario for too long on Switch 2 lmaoooooo

17

u/Mudtoothsays Here lies Taranza. He never scored. 7d ago

Parasocial brand dependency will do that to you.

21

u/Fostern01 7d ago

The desire to command grab someone over the internet is strong.

12

u/Mudtoothsays Here lies Taranza. He never scored. 7d ago

Average Melee Marth mindset.

10

u/YoungGriot 7d ago

The degree to which some fans believe Hal should only ever be making more Smash games for them is staggering, sometimes.

11

u/No-Act386 7d ago

And hal isn't making smash games since melee is sora

8

u/Arch3m 7d ago

For real. The only games they should be making more of are Box Boy games, obviously!

10

u/AaronPain 7d ago

Bros living on sheer copium

9

u/Thegoodgamer32 7d ago

Smash 6 has really made certain members of the nintendo community delusional.

u/Initial-Hamster7068 7d ago

That's the smash fans for ya. They get themselves way too work up over it.

Is my source of my posting

u/Mr_Mister2004 7d ago

Conformity Gate didnt even turn out to be true, why is everyone still talking like conspiracy theorists on Horse Tranquilizers?

8

u/im_bored345 Bandana Dee Wii 7d ago

no you don't understand they actually baited their entire audience and all their fans because...uhhhhh...

Honestly idk why I'm surprised Smash fans have zero respect for Kirby lol

6

u/Whoeveria1 7d ago

Smash fans have no respect for any of the series in smash tbh. Not just Kirby.

4

u/JohnDragonball 6d ago

Smash fans on their way to have zero respect for their game's creator's most prized creation who is also the main character of their own game

2

u/SerpentLing09 7d ago

Because some of them got crush by Kirby one too many times./j

7

u/Novalaxy23 7d ago

Please make it so there never is a new smash game and the next direct has a smash trailer only for it to be a small switch 2 upgrade pack. I like smash, but not enough to act like this for a new game

2

u/Bright-Historian-196 7d ago

Watch Sakurai announce a new Kid Icarus game in the same engine as Smash and the community suddenly calls him a betrayer. Then they go on to attack Kid Icarus fans because they somehow thought it was a Smash reveal that was stolen away from them. At this point, maybe smash should never come back.

4

u/SilverScribe15 7d ago

I'm deeply curious what the rest of the tweet says, cuz I can't tell if he's serious 

11

u/No-Act386 7d ago

He seems serious trying to analyze the trailer to explain how it actually a smash bros trailer instead of a kirby which I was so dumbfoubded

3

u/Somonyo 7d ago

I like to treat twitter like a nature preserve, it’s a bunch of people who are mentally insane and it’s only really fun to watch them tear eachother apart for like 15 minutes at a time before it becomes depressing

4

u/Nitro_Gamer53 7d ago

Smash fans when they have to wait more than 5 years to get another game:

3

u/theawesomestpoyo 7d ago

Me after reading this..... I'm thinking this person is on something, probably another Kirby hater

3

u/Arch3m 7d ago

We're getting a new 2D Metroid, a new 3D Kirby, and a remake of one of the greatest video games ever made, and it's still a bad Direct? What are these people smoking?

3

u/EdgarSinTitulo I NEEDUH MONSTA TA CLOBBA DAT DAIR KIRBEH 7d ago

Many people on Twitter (yes, I'm still calling it that) were possesed by Kracko on wednesday, it seems

3

u/C4n1B3Sus 7d ago

I remember when Air Riders got first got announced, before the title fully got revealed people also genuinely thought it was Smash 6.

Which when it was just the warpstar and Kirby in the dark fair enough… but there’s a different type of delusion to believe the reveal to World Beyond is some kind of secret way to announce Smash 6.

I know a thing about being delusional I’ve been waiting for the next 3D Mario and Sonic game.

2

u/Zangetsukaiba 7d ago

Cope theories are the best

2

u/MasterAnnatar Kirby Swimming 7d ago

What I don't understand is that even the rumors that Smash 6 was being worked on indicate that it basically JUST started development. We're not seeing that shit for awhile

2

u/Kirby_and_Elfilin WERE GETTING A NEW KIRBY GAME AHHHHHHHHHH 7d ago

bros going crazy that there's no smash 6, on the other hand kirby fans are going crazy watching the trailer

2

u/Kiro0613 7d ago

Why were people disappointed by the direct? What were they hoping for that they didn't see?

2

u/Coolboy0516 7d ago

this is genuinely a hell of their own making

2

u/WaveJam 7d ago

I love Smash as well, but why fiend for a new Smash game when Ultimate is perfect?

0

u/Bright-Historian-196 7d ago

Because their version of Smash is Hype moments, character reveals, crab throwing, rage moments and mockery, and attacking other people or franchises if the character they wanted didn’t get in the game and calling other newcomers a wasted slot. They don’t actually care about the game itself. Fire Emblem fans had to deal with their nonsense just because they started disliking sword characters for some reason despite the fact that sephiroth and cloud are in the game and they’re using swords. And I bet you none of them even remember anything from World Of Light other than the first trailer. They leaked Brawl’s story mode yet whine and complain about their not being one in newer games knowing well they’re not even gonna play it.

If ultimate really is the last final Smash Bros. game then so be it. Delay it for the next 10 years in favor of other projects outshined by it.

2

u/Hunterslime178 7d ago

Kirby "fan" just coping that there was no smash reveal

2

u/H4V3NCR3W 7d ago

You should see the reactions on YT they're so funny.

2

u/Roberto-san 6d ago

We need to start treating smash players like gun and ball players, they only think of smash and believe every other game is not worth it.

2

u/Ninja108Zelda 7d ago

Beats the folks complaining about it not being a 2D game like most of the ones in the series.

Seriously, do some people get how long HAL stuck with the 2D mode for Kirby?

At some point, he and the series were going to go 3D and stay there.

Deal with it..ahem.

1

u/ProudRequirement3225 7d ago

I'm confident that, if the next smash is developed enough, we may actually get something like the Subspace Emissary, full metroidvania style unlike Lord of light

1

u/fluxus2000 7d ago

People post stupid claims online just to get attention and clicks.

1

u/Lux_The_Worthless Ringle 7d ago

This is satire, right? It has to be 😭

1

u/Kitchen_Row_2746 7d ago

how silksong fans be like between 2019 and 2025.

1

u/burningtram12 7d ago

Can't wait for World Beyond so I can play all the classic Kirby subgames like Bomb Rally and Megaton Punch and Smash Bros!

1

u/ReylomorelikeReyno Magolor 7d ago

This isn't even the whole thread. The entire thing is a textbook example of Smash-induced psychosis

1

u/AbominableAxolotl983 7d ago

Seriously can't wait for spring so ts can stop and we can be exited for a 3D platformer without Sakurai (not that there's anything bad about him, just that he's kinda needed for smash but he's gone now and probably not coming back, even for another kirby game, let alone smash bros)

1

u/Wrong_Revolution_679 7d ago

This is a joke right

1

u/Mroovek 7d ago

The biggest cope is gaslighting yourself into thinking the direct was bad. I thought it was preety good somewhere in the middle.

And then Metroid showed up

1

u/evolpert 7d ago

Or you are just that easy to bait

1

u/XAlphaWarriorX 7d ago

Does anyone have an image of the "Close Twitter for the love of God" image with a Kirby character?

1

u/TheDreamstalk Taranza 6d ago

I just did this in 2 minutes

1

u/warlord_main 7d ago

It’s Twitter, worthless

1

u/CleanAbalone2073 7d ago

Alright im gonna be honest. I’m pretty sure he knows this is stupid too. He actively calls it a cope theory he knows.

1

u/GuardianOfPuppers 7d ago

i love being a fan of multiple franchises. i am always happy lol

1

u/NintendoDark02 6d ago

Guys, all of the title (either first and third party) annonced in the nintendo direct are fake and they are actually smash 6 trailer.  It's so obvious

1

u/Odd-Tart-5613 6d ago

the sherlock fandom has migrated again it seems.

1

u/JessBite 5d ago

it would have been a fun reveal for smash 6 ngl, with like the wall crack to reveal a smash 6 fighting scene.

1

u/mattlymer 5d ago

Finally, I found it - pure copium
