Especially so given they did many spirit battles for RH stuff, meaning they know it could work in a battle context.

Theres some amazing irony to Rhythm Heaven and Sakurai sharing a birthday (He probably would've done an anniversary post if there was any in battle content to use for it)

Honestly yeah I think its an eleaborate joke for fans of the series, saying that even galeems blast won't free him from it alongside it being a spirit that is entirely defense and not much else. It's also used for an online profile pic which makes me think they see it as Porky rather than just...

I find it strange that Sakurai didn't celebrate Splatoon 2's anniversary, it would've been easy given the Splatoon 2 mii costumes. I've also been wondering why they didn't do a mii costume for octolings since they've done so for for both 1 and 2 inklings, and even squid sisters. Not saying...

Yeah the sales of Ring Fit dont matter for this game, though it certainly would for a new one. But in general Nintendo is pushing Ring Fit since it is so popular, quite possibly being the biggest Nintendo franchise thats not playable now, this games Splatoon like for Smash 4. But at the same...

Thats what I meant, they arent the super HD smash studio trailers, they get the games teams to do stuff. As for one that could fit, Rhythm heaven could easily do some 2D animation for a trailer.

I imagine a large part of the cost would be the insanely HD trailers they do, which the nintendo characters dont have and given we just had Kazuya with his, id say the next thing will be something less ambitious.

I'm not sure if this was brought up already but is this figure the only thing with Shantae's hair like this? With the hue and with it getting thinner at the end? Just thought it was interesting because then Sakurai probably does own her figure and it wasn't just something people joked about.

Seems pretty flawed given it all is based on outside thinking rather than just doing what they'd want to do, like the idea of them choosing to do a character purely because they line up with being purple or the idea of a character just being contriversal, not a surprise but just contriversal...

I don't think they really cared about Jack Frost at all for all that, the Persona spirit board was just all persona 5 stuff and in terms of mascot, Morgana was that, Sakurai literally went and hugged a Morgana mascot suit and we got a Morgana mii hat like slime and chocobo. I'd find it strange...

I doubt a first party thats already heavily represented would be the last pick given they're meant to be whole packs, Sakurai talking about bringing "worlds" into smash. Fire emblem has a lot in smash but literally nothing from 3 houses was in smash so that still counts as a new "world". With...

The shantae mii costume and the montage of all the newcomers dating back to smash 4 make me think it won't be something new but instead something they've had planned for a while. So i'm just going all in on Rhythm Heaven.

Well now 2 of these have mii costumes and 1 has an assist Diskun is finally joining smash brothers Gonna hope at the very least we get a RH mii cosutme if nothing.

Fair on the switch side of things, but I don't feel like Nintendo was super strict on the franchises chosen, xenoblade 2 didnt really have anything happen alongside it so it didnt feel like nintendo making sakurai promote it. And I'd love ring fit to get in but I think its too new for this...

Gonna pray for rhythm heaven as both a lowkey 1st party pick (it was the last series in the logos of smash 4 data mining) and as a scrapped idea. It's also the 15th anniversary this year if wanna have an excuse to celebrate it years after it having a game.
