As long as Miyamoto still cares about it, it will have a chance. His influence is still important; this goes for Pikmin as well. I also think Nintendo knows the SF cast is still very marketable as well if they can just put the right game around it.

We already have plenty of characters with capes, long hair, dresses, and etc. so I don't really see that being a problem (not to trivialize the hard and important work that all the animators do, but I don't think this would affect his eligibility). He levitates in his "spirit form" at least; in...

I feel like for his dash they might just go the "levitation" route like say Mewtwo has. For his second jump, lol he would probably look really awkward doing a flip or something, so it'd maybe be one of those jump-and-spin moves that some other characters do.

Yeah I actually don't really want them to just go straight from the last game to the next one with Smash. Personally I always liked Smash being a once-per-console-gen special occurrence. Of course extended DLC has kind of changed things away from that somewhat, though Smash has remained a game...

And, yeah, Robin. At the time I was flabbergasted it wasn't Chrom but now I think Robin is actually the best representative for Awakening. He's a funky character to play for me specifically but I think he adds a lot to the game and should stick around.

Though he clearly got the short end of the stick on that one. Animal Crossing and Mario Kart got the obviously higher-tier CapriSun flavors in Pacific Cooler and Fruit Punch.

Yeah as much as I would still be very down for Excitebiker, for example, they really do need to expand the meaning of "retro" beyond just the 80s. Hopefully stuff like K Rool and Isaac doing well on the ballot was enough of a kick to get them to realize how much of their audience is becoming (or...

No I actually think there's a lot of utility in being able to do that. Whether that be to organize fights with, say, only characters in certain tiers allowed, only characters from certain franchises/genres, only the original 12, only the starting roster (like re-hiding secret characters), only...

Once again, I'd love a fully customizable CSS. I don't expect it to happen, but it would be helpful to be able to order characters however I'd like and even show/hide certain characters at will.

* WarioWare and Advance Wars casts sulking in the corner *

Yeah, to be relatively brief here, I think the goal of getting all these big third party names in with such frequency and quantity has become too much at odds with the goals of fleshing out the Nintendo side of the roster. The rostering philosophy for third party choices is almost completely...

Here's a (secondhand at least) source. https://www.eventhubs.com/news/2021/nov/09/masahiro-sakurai-aerial-smash-ssbu/ I agree that it would be good to see Smash do something to incentivize being on the ground more, but also that, yeah, it might be hard in practice due to the nature of a game...

I'm still inclined to think that the next FE game is FE4 remake, and that said game will be on Switch only. I think it's most likely they use this remake to help fill the latter half of 2024, esp. if it's been done for a while. Based on the time gaps between the non-remake mainline FE games...

I was speculating for quite a while that they might do the same thing they did with Switch by revealing in the fall and releasing the following spring. Looks like that will happen now, though it may not have been the original plan.

Though Ult had much more DLC than past games, which may stretch the timeline out further, esp. since they didn't go straight from Ult to working on the next game like they did after 4's DLC.
