  • Conker, Rash and Jago could have been spirits in Banjo's spirit board. Just saying. Terry came with spirits from other SNK games.

    Terry coming with other SNK characters is mostly because of KoF, which is pretty much an SNK crossover title although it doesn't feature Samurai Shodown odd enough which does get spirits. Anyways for Banjo-Kazooie's spirits I would stick mostly to characters in Diddy Kong Racing

    Maybe there will be a Rare spirit event in the future where Conker, Rash and Jago are the new spirits to collect.

    Unless Rare Replay gets a Switch port, I wouldn't hold my breath on that happening. Spirit events for new inclusions mainly pertain towards series getting any recent releases.
    Pools and amusement parks must open this summer. Coronavirus, shmoronavirus. It's a sin to leave them closed during summertime. If we would still have to social distance and if they would have to limit the number of people at pools and amusement parks at a time then that's fine though.

    It sucks to have pools closed, but there's a damn good reason

    I tried to do a triple flip off the high dive as a kid and belly flopped so hard on the water that I was nearly knocked out. So I started to sink to the bottom of the deep end. Mind you, the lifeguard wasn’t watching cause he was flirting with girls so my friend had to come get and dragged me out. I guarantee that lifeguards are not properly trained to keep kids and teenagers from 6 ft of each other nor will they enforce it. Just keep them closed.
    Spring Man is gonna be my new main alongside Banjo.

    Just watch it be Ribbon Girl, though I see her as an alt.
    Inkling Man
    Inkling Man
    She and Springtron should both be alts for Spring Man. There could be 3 for Spring Man, 3 for Ribbon Girl and 2 for Springtron. I know it doesn't sound fair that Springtron only gets 2 while Spring Man and Ribbon Girl each get 3 but he's not as important to ARMS as Spring Man and Ribbon Girl are so he shouldn't have as many alts as them anyway.
    If Rex & Pyra/Mythra are in Vol. 2, they should be a two in one character like Ice Climbers except Pyra and Mythra use their powers to increase Rex's attack, defense and speed and if he gets separated from them, he'll lose their power and he won't be able to do certain attacks.

    I kinda see it like Pokemon Trainer tho.
    Inkling Man
    Inkling Man
    If they were like Pokémon Trainer, Pyra/Mythra wouldn't be able to run around huge stages with Rex and he has to stay near them in order to do certain attacks and receive their power.
    What's the point of change if the change isn't beneficial?
    Every key character from Bayonetta 1 and 2 is a spirit except Enzo. Why did they leave out Enzo?

    But Bayonetta, Jeanne, Luka and Rodin swear too.
    One of the main purposes of Smash is to market other games. Most DLC newcomers are each meant to be an ad for something.

    Smash 4 Ryu was an ad for Street Fighter V.
    Smash 4 Cloud was an ad for FF7 Remake.
    Smash 4 Corrin was meant to be an ad for FE Fates.
    Smash 4 Bayonetta was an ad for Bayonetta 2.
    Joker was meant to be an ad for Persona 5 Royal.
    Hero was meant to be an ad for DQ11 Switch.
    Terry was meant to be an ad for KoF15.
    Byleth was meant to be an ad for FE Three Houses.
    ARMS character is meant to be an ad for ARMS.

    Funny, you skipped Banjo and Kazooie oh, and Piranha Plant

    I don't think Terry would count since he was first thought of for the game well over a year before KoF XV was even announced. I doubt Nintendo would actually know about upcoming games for a different studio.
    Inkling Man
    Inkling Man
    Banjo was a fan service pick also wasn't Piranha Plant supposed to be a base game character?
    ARMS 2 should have a story mode. It doesn't have to be like Splatoon's Hero mode. It could be like the Mario Tennis Aces Adventure mode but way longer. ARMS's gameplay isn't built for 3D platformer style levels the way Splatoon is anyway.

    I'm curious as to why you're so into speculation. That's all you post sometimes. Makes me wonder.
    Inkling Man
    Inkling Man
    Because I have tons of ideas for things that should be in Smash and I like sharing them. For example if Spring Man gets in and Ribbon Girl is an alt for him, then Spring Man should have an alt that resembles Max Brass and Ribbon Girl should have an alt that resembles Dr. Coyle because Max Brass and Dr. Coyle are two very important characters in ARMS.

    That's good...but explain your reason a bit more =)

    Because I like speculating and I really hope the ideas I have get put into Smash.
    Cloud and Joker may be famous characters but what makes them important to Nintendo's history? Every other 3rd party character has a strong connection to Nintendo.

    The Final Fantasy and Persona franchises made an impact on Nintendo's history but Cloud and Joker themselves didn't make an impact on Nintendo's history. FF7 and Persona 5 should have been put on Nintendo consoles before they joined the Smash series.
    MajoraMoon
    MajoraMoon
    That... confuses me. First of all, they don't have to be put on Nintendo consoles first. Sakurai is not limited to such rules. And as mentioned before, they don't have to be an impact to Nintendo history to be in Smash. If sakurai wants it then fine. Good enough for me. FF7 didn't really impact Nintendo but it did impact gaming as a whole. That's why FF7 at least is important
    KirbyWorshipper2465
    KirbyWorshipper2465
    It's less about being important to Nintendo's history, and more of "let's include any really cool character as soon as possible, as long as they showed up on Nintendo hardware somehow, no matter how minimal of a presence they had on it before then". We've yet to see a single character that hasn't made use of this loophole, even Joker used it on extremely short notice (and even if you didn't count that, Phantom Strikers was conspicuously confirmed to come with a Switch version, on the time of his gameplay reveal).

    Maybe it's to make negotiations easier, but we'll never really know since the subject isn't delved into much.
    No matter who the ARMS character is, this should be their Classic Mode route (it references ARMS's Grand Prix mode):

    Round 1: Mii Brawler dressed as Ribbon Girl. Stage: ARMS stage.
    Round 2: Simon. Stage: Dracula's Castle.
    Round 3: Little Mac. Stage: Boxing Ring.
    Bonus Game.
    Round 4: Incineroar. Stage: Prisim Tower.
    Round 5: Ryu. Stage: Suzaku Castle.
    Round 6: Metal Mii Brawler that's dressed as Spring Man (he's supposed to represent Springtron). Stage: Suzaku Castle.
    Final Round: Navy blue Captain Falcon followed by dark grey red eyed Meta Knight (they're supposed to represent Max Brass and Hedlok). Stage: Fourside (omega form).

    Every round is also a timed stamina battle.
    If Spring Man is FP6, there should be 3 alts of him, 3 for Ribbon Girl and 2 for Springtron, that's 8 costumes.
    The Byleth DLC has Sakurai bias written all over it.
    I've got a gut feeling that Spring Man, Isaac, Rex and Geno will be 4 of the 6 Vol. 2 characters.

    I love Isaac to make it in but if we get an AT promotion, i only see Waluigi and Spring Man as the real contenders. I also think Rhythm Heaven as a chance to make an upgrade.

    Will this pandemic be written in history books like 9/11 was? Future children and teens would have to write essays and take tests about the 2020 pandemic.

    This is a much bigger global event than 9/11. That changed the world in one instant. This will continue to have intense consequenes rippling out for generations. It could possibly break down the entire US economy, just to start. I'd suggest following Warren Buffet, Goldman Sachs, and Bill Gates for exactly how this could play out.

    This is an event unparalleled in modern history- meaning history anyone alive can currently remember; yes I'm including World War 2 and the Spanish Plague.
    Rate this Spring Man moveset:

    Neutral special: Dragon glove. It fires a long laser that hurts the first thing it hits.

    Side special: Chilla glove. Press and hold B to charge this move and when it's done charging, press B again to throw a long ranged punch using the Chilla glove which freezes the opponent who gets hit by it.

    Up special: Spring Man punches the ground which reoils himself into the air.

    Down special: Clapback glove. It's a shield that reflects projectiles also any opponents who run into the Clapback glove will automatically be bounced back like a pinball.

    Final Smash: Hedlok. Spring Man wears him which gives him 4 extra arms and throws a flurry of punches using all 6 arms and then Hedlok fires a giant ball of energy that explodes when it hits something.
    Rare Replay not coming to Switch doesn't make any sense at all. Banjo came to Smash so his games should be on Switch.
    When a 1st party game becomes successful, that means Sakurai has to give it a rep in Smash hence to why Inkling, Incineroar, Byleth and ARMS character got in.
    Let's think of all the good things that happened because of the Coronavirus.

    - Frozen II and Onward wouldn't be on Disney+ if not for the virus.
    - Because of the virus, we don't have to go to work or school.

    What other good things happened?
    Are Mario, Zelda, Animal Crossing and Splatoon Nintendo's four largest 1st party IPs?
    Strong Badam
    Strong Badam
    Mario, Zelda, Pokemon, and Donkey Kong if you ignore Wii as an IP (which it technically is). If you consider Pokemon a 2nd party, then Kirby.
    Inkling Man
    Inkling Man
    Nintendo gets help from other companies while making Pokemon, Kirby and DK. They make Mario, Zelda, Animal Crossing and Splatoon all by themselves.
    Strong Badam
    Strong Badam
    That's a reasonable distinction to make but it wasn't your initial question. You asked which were their largest IPs, and your original list was inaccurate under those conditions so you got some replies.
    Sakurai said Ultimate was for good boys and girls but that doesn't mean good boys and girls are Ultimate's only primary target demographic. If so there wouldn't be any point of including characters good boys and girls don't recognize. What good boy or girl knew who Joker was when he was announced? They didn't recognize him but teens and adults did so Ultimate's primary target demographic must be good boys, good girls, teens and adults all together.
    Banjo is basically Nintendo's prodigal son who finally came home after nearly 15 years.

    Unless they're even planning to make a new game with them.

    Also, I do hope everyone stops calling the duo just by the bear. It's a microaggression. Though I do agree that BK's comeback was the most hype thing they sought after for many years.

    Teeeeeeeeeechnically in this case it’s just Banjo because banjo debuted in Diddy Kong Racing without Kazooie, but who really cares about that

    Being a speculator yourself, what can you say about the possibility of female fighters this pass? Considering that most of the names tossed are male..

    There's the chance Rex & Pyra will be in Vol. 2. Pyra is female.

    That is good and all, but what about solo female fighters (not including alts). I'm talking like, Bayonetta.

    There's the chance Dixie Kong will be DLC but 2B can't join unless she's been in at least one game on a Nintendo console before joining. Cloud was in Kingdom Hearts on Nintendo consoles and Persona Q2 was on 3DS before Joker was announced so they were eligible.
    It doesn't take two years to make 6 characters unless an outbreak is slowing down the development on the 6 characters.

    I'll thank you not to delve into conspiracy theories. Let's keep in mind that they meant December of 2021 at the latest. "The Latest" for the first fighters pass was February 2020 and it was finished before then. Also, "It doesn't take two years to make 6 characters"? How do you know?
    Inkling Man
    Inkling Man
    Because Ultimate began development in early 2016 and it released in late 2018 and Ultimate had 74 characters (76 counting Pokemon Trainer's 3). They made 74-76 characters in under 3 years.

    Deleted member
    Yeah and a lot of them were characters they made before and didn't have to do from scratch. Not to mention Echo fighters. Please don't talk like you know how the process of developing characters goes. You don't. I don't either. No fan does.
    Some people actually think FP6 was meant to be 3rd party but they made it 1st party because of the Coronavirus. FP6 was always meant to be an ARMS character.
    Many of the ARMS gloves would play too similarly in Smash so the Toaster, Boomerang, Tribolt, Dragon, Clapback, Megaton, Kablammer, Blorb, Parasol and Popper gloves are the only gloves that need to be used in Spring Man's moveset.

    I mean Simon and Richter and Samus and Dark Samus exist. There could also easily be a Pikachu clone that does fire damage instead of electric damage. Sure it doesn't make much of a difference but different elements would be super easy to implement.
    If Joker wasn't put in Smash, Switch owners wouldn't care about Persona 5 and they wouldn't be asking for a Switch port of it.
    D
    Deleted member
    Not true. Would there be less people asking for it? More than likely. But there would still be Switch Owners who would care about Persona 5 and would like to see a port. Don’t group everyone into one generalization.

    I care about the SMT-verse even before that happened, and I think asking for it is a waste of time, since Persona fans barely get to see their stuff ported onto anything that's not a Sony system. Phantom Strikers was a lucky accident simply since Omega-Force aren't being difficult about ports.

    There'd still be people begging for SMTV to finally reveal something else.
    If hot weather doesn't kill the Coronavirus, pools and amusement parks may not get to open this summer and FP6 will be the only good thing about summer 2020 and if that gets delayed, this will be the worst summer ever.
    KirbyWorshipper2465

    The Mega Man fan game community is looking strong, so their projects should possibly be done by the end of the year, at least (except for Mega Man X Corrupted, I'm convinced that's their Duke Nukem Forever at this point).
    Xenoblade, Fire Emblem, Kid Icarus and the Mother series wouldn't be where they are today if not for Smash Bros..
