Last week, Nintendo revealed that Steve Minecraft of Minecraft fame will be the next character added to the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate roster. As is often the case, some folks were excited, some weren’t.

It’s early October, which means it should be time for the New York Comic Con! Sadly, it is early October in The Year Of Bad Times, so there isn’t one in 2020.
