Not upset! I just think Banjo's inclusion is a bigger deal for that reason if nothing else (though I would argue there are other contributing factors). However, if you just meant which of the series is a bigger deal, then yeah, it's absolutely Tekken, with a bullet. I'm not that big a dumbass.

Dumbass here to dumbassly argue that even if you strip absolutely all other shreds of context from both character's inclusions, Banjo is absolutely still a bigger deal because it represents Nintendo working with a direct competitor whereas Kazuya is just "oh hey guys who have developed the last...

If tomorrow is the end of the road then... what a decade-long trip. E3 2011. That's when Smash for Wii U and 3DS got announced. Basically ever since then, there's been a wait for The Next Smash Character. Even after Sm4sh's DLC cycle ended, I remember the feeling among my friends that this...

Could just be naivete, but I don't think this makes an impact either way on one of the last two slots being a Capcom rep. Banjo aside, every 3rd party rep has come with Mii costumes relevant to their series. It's entirely possible that Sakurai would rather have the hypothetical Capcom character...

Well, I'll just have to take your word for it, but I certainly don't remember- DEDEDE NO

...since when was Dedede packing heat?

Oh, me neither. It's almost definitely bunk regardless of whoever FP5 is, I was just playing along. But also. In addition to playing along. I'm being 100% deadly serious and Gant should totally be FP5.

You know, it is kind of odd that Phoenix completely breaks colour theory. Unless... We're getting a very different Ace Attorney rep than the one we expect...

One of the statements I've seen come out of all of this that's really put into perspective how much the speculation game has changed as of late is "but Dante deserved to get in Smash before Phoenix!". Obviously deservedness vis-a-vis Smash is a completely nonsense concept, it comes down to...
