Well, I guess the no-AT-promotion-in-the-same-game thing held true this time. If I'm not wrong then Smash games (almost) always introduce newcomers from the Mario series, and I guess this roster got its fill with Daisy and Piranha Plant. Maybe next time. At least Waluigi will always be there...

Maybe it's partially because I'm disappointed myself, but I wouldn't fault anyone for being disappointed or venting their frustrations (granted that it's not straight-up flaming), considering that this was it for the chances of all other MWs until the next game, which won't be until the next...

Worth noting that if the tweet even indicates anything (which I personally don't really think it does), then it doesn't have to mean that the character is Western-developed. It could just as well be a Japanese character whose support is larger in the West than in Japan, and whose inclusion would...

If it means anything, then I think it would make sense for Waluigi anyway. The reaction upon his AT being revealed was a western phenomenon and his demand is not nearly as large or prominent in Japan as it is in the West. Japanese fans absolutely know who he is, but polls have pointed to most...

I interpret it more so that he's encouraging people who weren't particularly invested in the character that ultimately made it in, or were supporting a different character, to enjoy themselves in spite of their most wanted missing out this time around. I think it's far less about the notoriety...

All (?) fighters prior to FP2 also had unique crowd cheers for the Italian, Dutch, French, German, Spanish and Russian-language versions of the game. I would've assumed that they got people who actually know how to pronounce these languages for those cheers. However, it is worth noting that...

Was there ever a "verdict" on the crowd cheer thing? The fact that no FP2 characters so far have had crowd cheers in languages beyond English, Japanese and Korean remains. Could be problematic for any Pokémon, which are notable for having their names localised in almost every available language...

I genuinely have not even the slightest idea of who to predict if I were to throw my hat into that ring. Generally I think first-parties are bound to be more likely than third-parties just by virtue of not requiring any negotiations, but beyond that, I don't dare to wager. I definitely know who...

Maybe if Otus of Owlboy fame one days makes it in, somehow. He's the most viable candidate I can think of, at least.

Probably my favourite thing about Steve is how he's animated just as he is in his original game. Moves just as static, he doesn't tumble when launched, his dodge is literally just a straight-bodied 360 degree spin... in that regard I genuinely think they might have chosen the best way to...

From my own personal viewpoint: as someone not very familiar with Fire Emblem, its Smash reps genuinely blend into each other in my eyes. This being on account of all of them being fantasy medieval/renaissance-esque swordsmen, mages, what have you, with mostly accurate human anatomy. It gets...

All kinds of roles within design, animation, production and direction, mostly for Mario and Zelda games. However, the last Zelda he was involved with was Majora's Mask 3D, or Wind Waker if we only include "original" titles, while he's been on board for every mainline Mario game since 64. But...

We do get The List™ and SamusHunter or whatever their name is brought up here time and time again, after all.

This was talked about in the general speculation thread for quite a number of pages, and it was discovered that just a few days or so before the Direct, another reply with near identical wording to the one in July showed up. All of the information offered was the same, except that the date that...

It's real, but its full name is Disney Music Group, or the DMG. Most of the Kingdom Hearts soundtracks are released under Walt Disney Records, one of its subsidiaries. Which poses another question - is Walt Disney Records autonomous enough that any request to use KH music would go to them, or is...
