Steve/Alex/Zombie/Enderman Satisfaction: 45% - I certainly wasn’t expecting this. I’ll admit Minecraft has always been a bit of an enigma to me and I’ve had a lot of difficulty seeing its appeal, but any game that can sell 200,000,000 units is clearly doing something right. The character does...

Byleth satisfaction: 90% - Although I can definitely understand why many would be disappointed to see another Fire Emblem character, Three Houses was my favourite game of 2019 so naturally I’m excited to see it represented Smash. I’m also relieved to see that they have a far more unique move...

Terry in Smash - I have no attachment to this character at all but I have to admit that that trailer was extremely amusing. Sans costume - I love that this is easily one of the more convincing looking Mii costumes and that you could easily see this as actually being Sans. More DLC characters -...

Boss Rush Chance: 5% - We pretty much already have this in the base game in the form of the final World of Light challenge. probably the only major differences between that and a traditional boss rush would be the removal of the upwards scrolling sections and the possible addition of Master Hand...

Joker: 90% - I have to say that Persona 5 may be among my favourite video games of all time so I’m obviously happy to see Joker in Smash. Sakurai and his team did a fantastic job integrating him into Smash even going so far as to recreate the animations of the victory screens and All Out...

Sly Cooper Chance: 0% - Sadly, the fact that he’s a Sony property pretty much ruins any chance he has of ever making it into Smash. Even if by some fluke we do end up getting a Sony character, I honestly think we’d be more likely to get Kratos or Ratchet and Clank who seem higher up in Sony’s...

100 characters Chance: 0% - It’s probably going to take well over a year for the first season pass to be completed, seeing as we had to wait four months just for Joker. An additional 18 characters could possibly drive this game right into the next console generation. Nintendo has never supported...

I am thou, thou art I... Thou has required a new Vow. It shall become the wings of rebellion that breaketh thy chains of captivity. With the birth of the Smash Persona, I have obtained the winds of blessing that shall lead to freedom and new power... In all seriousness, I just beat Persona 5...

Season 2 Chance: 4% - Extremely unlikely. Sakurai specifically said five newcomers. The phrase “season 1” was never dropped and I’m not sure why we’d define five completely separate DLC purchases unveiled on five separate dates into a single “season” in the first place. Want: 100% - Obviously...

Most hype Everyone is Here - Prior to E3 I was far more pessimistic about cuts than the vast majority of users here and I was honestly expecting up to 12 veterans who could potentially not return. I was so happy to have been proven wrong. King K Rool - Because long live the King. World of Light...

Overall, I feel that this is an amazing roster. In addition to having every single veteran returning against all odds, we also got Ridley and King K. Rool who are arguably the two most popular requests. That being said, I do agree that Sakurai made a huge mistake revealing all the most wanted...

Edelgard Chance: 0% on the base roster - As everyone else has said, three houses will be released months after ultimate and it’s unlikely that Sakurai knew about her at the time the roster was being finalized. She does appear to be an important character in Three Houses and I can see her being a...

Abstaining from Dovahkiin 5 unique newcomers past Ridley and Inkling Chance: 75% - It wouldn’t be that hard seeing as how we only need two more. Although we were warned that the roster would likely be a lot smaller so I’m not willing to say it’s anywhere near guaranteed. Want: 100% - Who...

Rick Kine Coo Chance: 0% - I can’t think of a single scenario where this would make sense. It’s basically the equivalent of having Rambi, Expresso, Enguarde, and Winky from Donkey Kong Country becoming playable. Their triple character appearance in Kirby Star allies felt kind of forced (with...

Louie Chance: 1% - If Alph couldn’t make it, he won’t either. Alph already had a model that they could work with, as well as the hypothetical use of rock pikmin to distinguish him from Olimar. Want: 0% - Louie just plain annoys me. The implications of his role in the endgame of Pikmin 2 made no...
