And the next Smash video comes with it.

The newest 3rd party Super Smash Brothers has been announced, and neither squall nor lightning will stop him.
Cloud, originally from the 1997 PlayStation title Final Fantasy VII, will join the Super Smash Bros roster. No date has been announced, but it will also bring a stage based on the Midgar area of the game. Cloud was shown using some of his trademark moves, including summons and his Omnislash Limit Break as a Final Smash.
Following the announcement, a Super Smash Bros video was announced for sometime in December. It is not known if the video will feature the results of this year's Super Smash Bros ballot.
UPDATE: The UK press release for the Direct includes the following quote regarding the Smash video:
Additionally, a special broadcast – the last one for Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and Nintendo 3DS - will be released in December.
It seems that the video will be the last dedicated Smash Direct video, the fifth in the series. Whether this will mark the end of Smash Bros DLC support is unknown.
Really dude? Really? Even with all that babble there is no way you're raining on this parade. The internet mob lost its mind when this was announced.
Holy ****, I just realised that means a Cloud amiibo will be made...

This was more out of left field than even Ryu. I never ever ever would have expected this…Master Chief for Smash hell yes!
All bets are off, folks. Master Chief for smash confirmed.
If any Square Enix character makes it, I would expect it to be Cloud or Sora. I'm not saying I'd necessarily want Cloud as he barely qualifies, showing up as an NPC in Chain of Memories. He's still Square Enix's most recognizable and popular character.Not terribly surprised. Still, it's nice to see a new character.
I'm merely making an observation of how odd it is. This is the oddest SSB guest character by far. It must be the only character to make their Nintendo system debut in an SSB game!
