Minecraft and Cloud Strife: What You've Been Waiting For

Good evening everyone and welcome to The Magical Mystery Blog.

This previous weekend, Nintendo claimed that it would have something for us Monday. This news would be completely and ridiculously Earth-shattering, something to boggle our minds, information to break the fabrication of time as we know it. When Monday approached, we were greeted with the news that Minecraft would be available for purchase in the Nintendo Eshop for the Wii U on December 17th, 2015.

At $30, gamers can play the iconic game on the gamepad and eliminate the use of the television while receiving the Battle & Beasts Skin pack, Battle & Beasts 2 Skin pack, Natural Texture pack, City Texture pack, Fantasy Texture pack, and Festive Mash-up pack along with their purchase. Following the game’s initial launch, players can buy other packs with “Doctor Who”, “Star Wars”, steampunk, Greek mythology, Halloween, Mass EffectSkyrim, cartoon, pattern, and candy themes.

The news was received with mixed reviews – most people were expecting the date to download Cloud Strife for
 Super Smash Bros Brawl or any word on Pokemon Z. After all, Corocoro (a Pokemon magazine in Japan) mentioned teasing us with some rather large news regarding Pokemon in December. What this is, one can speculate that it pertains to Pokemon Z. The only Pokemon news we have received was for today in that Sceptile has been confirmed for Pokken Tournament with Electrode and Farfetch’d as supporting characters.

However, something much more exciting than
 Minecraft has flooded the Internet. On December 15th at 2 PM, Masahiro Sakurai (a major artist who works on Super Smash Bros series) will be informing us more about Cloud Strife and the future of Super Smash Bros Brawl 4 for both the Wii U and 3DS. Nintendo is also deeming this event as the final presentation regarding Super Smash Bros Brawl.

What could this mean? Obviously, the information regarding Cloud will probably be the date when he is available for the game. But what about the fan Brawl ballot? It seems likely that Cloud has won the ballot, but no one is for certain.

For now, we wait with bated breath for possibly the greatest thing to happen to Super Smash Bros Brawl since its very creation.

Thank you for reading tonight’s entry. If you enjoyed it, feel fre to comment, critique, share, and subscribe.
