I mean... didn't Shulk get into SSB4 before any sequels or spinoffs to Xenoblade were actually released? Xenoblade Chronicles X was announced in 2013, but it didn't come out until 2015 - a year after Shulk was already in the base game.

But he's not the main character of the game. And even out of the major NPCs, Toriel and Flowey are more central to the overarching plot. There's also the question of what character is most representative of Undertale as a whole. You, as Frisk, can technically fight your way to victory even in...

I feel like it's a little different, though? Luigi's Mansion is considered part of the Mario franchise for smash. (Though one could argue it has just as much of its own distinct identity as Yoshi, Donkey Kong, and Wario games do, it seems Nintendo doesn't see it that way. :/) It's a shame it's...

The smash speculation cycle is stressful, between the Discourse and the leaker drama and all that BS, so I'm probably not participating in the main speculation thread anymore. (#5 sure did turn out to be Byleth huh. At least it;s a big point in favor of Protagonist Privilege being a real thing.)...

Pretty sure the Sans costume thing was a special case because the creator is also the composer. Unless there's another circumstance like that, IDK if it'll happen again. Anyways, Verge stuff, huh? Interesting his source (source's source?) is unsure about KOS-MOS. Don't have any real strong...

Might as well make two lists, considering my biases. Normal Company Picks: Phoenix Wright: love the games, love the character, MvC3 shows he can work in a fighting game by giving him an "accidental/pacifist" moveset themed around the main activities in the game (collecting and presenting...

Sure, go ahead. (I forgot the supporter's lists were even a thing...)

So, the two big theories are "the deconfirms are real" and "the deconfirms are leakbait." Honestly, though, I wouldn't be surprised if the big name public leakers' sources were simultaneously not lying a distraction from who #5 actually is Like, because it's really funny how deconfirming a...

Oh, same. I've got my favorites I bet on, including a few dark horses (very obvious ones cough), but mainly I'm just curious as to what Sakurai is gonna throw at us next, and how well-kept of a secret it'll actually turn out to be in the end. Especially since we have at least a little more DLC...

I mean, when you're this bored, you can either listen to leakers, and get caught in the resulting drama, or you can go in the same roundabout of discussing a tiny handful of characters that people are convinced are the most likely on circumstantial evidence, with all alternate possibilities...

Still finding it weird that Verge's "correct" list doesn't have characters that correspond to every company on the "old list." Capcom, Konami, ASW, Spike Chunsoft, Marvelous, Epic Games, Bethesda, and Nintendo. Furthermore, the "no upgraded assists" and "no upgraded spirits" statements don't...

If we don't get the character this month, I think everyone's going to die from stress. At least it will be... interesting... to look back on.

Well, RIP big deconfirm list. Just... pretend my last two comments don't exist, I guess. : (

It's called Deltarune, you pleb. And Sans seems to be a less prominent character in Deltarune than he was in Undertale, so that really wouldn't work. >:p (Yea, I know you were joking, just... sigh. I am a nitpicker by heart.) If we're still doing the "characters I don't want in Smash," all I'm...

If it turns out that Verge has been right this whole time, tehponycorn's gonna have enough material to write a whole second essay on the nature of the Smash Bubble. Especially if the character is one that isn't being repeatedly stated as "the only possibly option left." Even it turns out that...
