Sakurai has said before that there were originally no plans for further DLC after FP1. Rex's Mii Costume was added as a bonus for FP1 because Sakurai wasn't able to include him as a full character. When he did end up bring able to add more characters, he decided to add Min Min- another character...

This. Some people may say that Min Min may be the only first-party character in FP2, but I'd honestly be baffled if they didn't add Rex as well, especially since he had a lot more fan requests than her. It's also important to keep in mind that Nintendo has been putting quite a lot of spotlight...

It's crazy to think that Animal Crossing will probably top Mario Kart in sales.

For Smash 4, both Corrin and Bayonetta were revealed one month after Cloud.

Alright, let's do some theorycrafting. Byleth: 12 days between Sakurai Presents and release Min Min: 7 days between Sakurai Presents and release Steve: 10 days between Sakurai Presents and release There is maintenance on the 16th, which could mean that CP8 is getting released on that day. The...

I've seen a few people suggest that there could be an Indie World soon, but those have been incredibly consistent with their timing, at least in North America. Since they've started, there has always been one in March, August, and December each year, with the only outlier being the very first...

The Heroes weren't very demanded for Smash, but they were still included. Sometimes the "iconicness" of the game holds more weight than if they were heavily requested or not. Crono's visual similarity to the Heroes is a valid argument though. That could be remedied a little bit with the other...

So now that the topic of other Square Enix reps has been brought back, I'll give my thoughts on each one and their likelihood of being chosen. *Sora: There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that Sakurai/Nintendo had attempted to get Kingdom Hearts in Smash at some point. Sora is one of the most...

The fact that we won't have any more Partner Showcases for the rest of the year is pretty suspect. I mean, you're telling me that for the entirety of the most commercial time of the year, they'll only drop things random things on Twitter? I don't buy it. I think at the very least, our next...

Late response, but Magnemite is a meme in Japan. Anytime there is a Pokémon poll, Magnemite tends to place pretty high. It makes sense that some of that would transfer to the Fighter Ballot.

"I am Ogma, a mercenary from Talys. If you need strength put to a task... I'm your man." Who is Ogma? Ogma is a character who debuted in Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light as a playable unit. He also makes appearances in Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem, the remakes of both...

Neat. I hope this doesn't deter Intelligent Systems from making full-on remakes, because I still want Genealogy and Thracia to get the Echoes treatment.

I'm thinking Fairy/Steel. Fairy fits with being him being a star and he's part Steel because of his guns.

Okay, hold up. Just because you didn't see people "make references" to Ninja Gaiden suddenly means that the series isn't iconic? Plenty of people knew about it and loved the series, even if you personally didn't see anyone talking about it. People love the reboot series too, and just because you...

This. The fact that it ended up being nice and tidy for FP1 was a mere coincidence and if it happens again for FP2, it'll still be a coincidence. They wouldn't decide what characters to add based on if they'll all be able to fill up the "voice slots".
