  • In Smash 6 Spring Man could join and there could be 4 alts for him and 4 for Ribbon Girl. I know they each have their own abilities in ARMS but the Koopalings each have their own abilities too and that didn't stop them from being Bowser Jr. alts.

    Who said I want Min Min cut? At what point did I ever imply that?

    The difference is that in the case of the Koopalings, the vast majority of the moveset comes from the Clown Car, so Bowser Jr.'s own abilities aren't exactly showcased either because driving vehicules like that is not unique to him anymore; Koopalings have done it since New Super Mario Bros. 2.

    The only thing that is truly Junior's own unique thing is the Final Smash. Everything else is something that a Koopaling could realistically and canonically do, which is why them being alts work while multiple ARMS characters as alts don't.

    Because we don’t need two (technically three with Ribbon Girl) reps from ARMS. Splatoon should get first dibs for a secondary rep over ARMS considering Splatoon is bigger than ARMS and, as far as we know, ARMS isn’t getting a sequel in the near future. Then again, Smash 6, if it does come, will be here in, like, 2030.
    Kamp Koral is disrespectful to Stephen Hillenburg. He never wanted SpongeBob to have a spin off series and yet Nickelodeon is ignoring his wishes.
    Amazing. ARMS now has a rep in Smash and people are STILL disrespectful towards ARMS.
    Smash Ultimate and Atelier Ryza are both rated Pegi 12 in Europe so why would Ryza need to be censored in Smash Ultimate?
    Rule of thumb, every new or upcoming Nintendo game will get either a spirit event or a Tetris 99 theme but not both.
    With all of these Nintendo leaks happening, I hope the unreleased Twelve Tales Conker 64 prototype gets leaked too.

    I think Rare would probably have the source codes and files for all the DKC games they made as well. But Nintendo owns it even if they still have the files over back at Rare HQ. I don't believe we will see anything Rare related DKC or not come out of this leak.

    The only Rare content I could see us getting is perhaps some unused Rare content from the first 2 Smash games, assuming we get GC leaks. (which doesn't seem too far-fetched since there are GBA leaks) It's said that Rare trophies almost got into Melee.

    I have a theory that Diddy Kong was planned for Melee as he had no trophy in the game but K. Rool and Dixie did. Why the hell Diddy Kong didn't get a trophy when they did when he's more important? Perhaps he was planned to be playable and they couldn't put him in in time due to time constraints. This hasn't been confirmed, but it's just my theory he was planned to be playable due to the missing trophy.
    Why are all the characters in Onward fantasy creatures? If all the characters were humans, the story would largely be the same.
    Elma's chances are higher than Rex's at this point. Xenoblade X has no music and spirits are now allowed to become playable. We don't know if Mii costumes are yet.

    Inkling Man Inkling Man I agree. But Rex fans will go on and on telling you his popularity destroys Elma's chances and the Xenoblade rep can't be anyone but him. They will repeat this like a broken record so I will suggest not engaging in a pointless debate.
    Given that Spring Man is everything except a playable character and his stage is in the game, he's probably a shoe in for Smash 6.

    Origami King is a Mario game where Bowser isn't the main villian. A Mario game like this comes around once in a great while.

    Just because the announcement of the July 20th direct didn't happen today doesn't mean it won't get announced tomorrow or the next day. Nintendo usually announces a Nintendo Direct 1-2 days in advance too.

    EarthBound spoilers: If you play EarthBound on the SNES, do not save your progress after you travel to the past to fight Giygas or else you'll be stuck there until you defeat him. I'm not sure why it even allows you to save from that point on.
    I've been told Geno is just a meme character. If people don't actually want Geno then why are they campaigning for him?

    Don't even think about it, it's clearly just a detractor who tries to crush other people's hopes and dissuade them from actually wanting someone they'd like to have.

    If a character with high fan demand is a meme, then by that logic you might as well ignore at LEAST 70% of Smash speculation.

    Geno was literally one of the most requested characters if not the most requested character during Brawl speculation. Geno was popular before memes even become a big thing on the Internet.
    There should be a SpongeBob episode or movie based on Battle for Bikini Bottom. But it can't be called Battle for Bikini Bottom because there's already an episode titled Battle for Bikini Bottom. The one where SpongeBob and Patrick fight over being dirty and clean.
    Just because some competitive players are evil doesn't mean all of them are. If I were to become a competitive player and participate in an EVO tournament, I would never do what Nario did.

    Regardless, my point still stands. Pros like Leffen are speaking out, things will get better once the dust settles, and we have a chance to move on knowing people like the offenders are gone.

    I know people dislike disloyalty, but consent is consent.
    I'm polyamorous, and I've had multiple girlfriends at once before.
    Please do not compare sexual assault to disloyalty.
    Venus of the Desert Bloom

    Allegations are pending so I can’t fully comment on them with confidence. However, from what I gather, there was nothing consensual about HBox trying to hook up with other Smasher’s S/O and/or GFs. I don’t know about his own girlfriend and if she was cool with it. However, from the general feeling, most girls were not comfortable with him creeping up on them despite them having boyfriends and, as the Tweet mentions, “don’t let HBox near your girlfriends”. I’ve known a few guys who thought they were within their rights to steal girlfriends because, if they succeeded, it meant that the relationship was doomed for failure regardless. It gave them a control rush and fostered their already inflated “alpha male” ego.

    If all parties were fine with all of this and were in agreement; then no issue. If all of this was unwarranted and HBox was acting on his own impulses; it’s sexual assault and/or sexual abuse. Again, allegations are pending and I’m not one to jump to guilt instantly. I do want to hear from multiple sides before they tarnish his career. However, I also disagree with brushing aside allegations “pish-posh” until more significant evidence shows itself.
    Why did history forget about ARMS until now? The game is an underrated gem. It just needs to be expanded on.
    What if Pyra was a Mii Brawler costume and Mythra was a Swordfighter costume?

    I know I haven't exactly played XB2, but I'm pretty sure Pyra would be better suited as a Swordfighter costume if she must be a Mii costume.

    But Pyra almost never uses her sword in XC2 and Rex is known for using it while she's known for not having a weapon in her hands.
    If Sora were to join, the Mickey chain on his Keyblade would be replaced with a Smash symbol chain. References to non video game characters are not allowed in Smash.

    But he's also not a video game character. While characters like Jessie and James have been in video games, the only thing Ash has ever appeared in is Pokemon Puzzle League, which was NA exclusive(Because it was a reskin of another game).

    Isn't one of Cloud's alts literally taken from an animated movie?

    Inkling Man
    The movie is still Final Fantasy related and the alt was invented for the Final Fantasy IP. Mickey was not invented for Kingdom Hearts, he was invented for his own cartoon series.
    What if Inklings and Octolings could use real AK-47s in Splatoon? The AK-47 can't paint the ground but its bullets can instantly defeat an opponent and after you fire all of the bullets, the gun automatically reloads after a while. Just kidding, Nintendo would never allow real guns in their games.
    I've got to be more positive when I talk about things. I spend too much time being negative. Spring Man can wait until Smash 6 if he can't be in Ultimate's DLC. I can be content with Min Min.
    I love how they made Min Min work in Smaah by using the A and B buttons to use her left and right arms. It's fitting because Smash and ARMS both focus on two attack buttons.
    If Geno joins, his stage should be Bowser's Keep. We need a Bowser Castle stage anyway.

    I'm about 99% certain that would be the case, seeing as the staff likes going after the first thing you see in a game.

    That would be amazing, I imagine that if it were the case, there would be a mechanic with the 2 chandeliers held by Chomps, when these Chomps accumulate damage they drop the chandeliers, at some point the sword would fit into the castle during full battle. I know that the forest is a more representative place for Geno, but I think that would be boring.
    Sakurai always considers the poster boy of a game when deciding what character to take from said game. He must not have considered Spring Man because he's already an assist trophy.
    Smash is still a Nintendo crossover. 3rd party characters are guests of honor.
    Spring Man being playable in Smash would have boosted ARMS sales than Min Min being playable in Smash will. Just saying. Since Spring Man takes up most of ARMS's box art, more people will recognize him.

    How does recognizability make people want to buy a game? This argument makes no sense.

    It’s like saying more people would buy Tetris if the T block was in Smash than if the O block was in smash because the T block is on the game’s logo

    Some Smash fans are more likely to buy a DLC character they know than a character they don't know.

    You realize that applies for EVERY SINGLE VIDEO GAME CHARACTER IN EXISTENCE, let alone the ones in Ultimate, right?
    Robin got picked over Chrom in Smash 4 even though Chrom is the protagonist of Awakening but Robin is still the 2nd most important character in Awakening and he's a very close 2nd. You might even say Chrom, Robin and Lucina are the three main characters of Awakening so the protagonists first rule still stands.

    Though it's great that we're getting Min Min. I'm still heartbroken that Spring Man's chances of joining Ultimate are ruined but if we're very lucky, he'll be FP11.

    What would consist of a Spring Man Fighter Pack 11? We have basically most of the music that would be included plus not to mention Spirits (we have yet to see them but for real, we are sure to get most of the remaining cast). As well, we already have Spring Stadium. Would Spring Man have Ramen Bowl? It would make no sense. I would consider Spring Man such a stretch that even I’m sure it would break his springs if he tried to reach that far. I’m pretty sure most people would not be happy to get a second ARMS Rep in Fighter’s Pass Vol 2.

    I honestly think Spring Man or another Arms rep ain't getting in until Smash 6. It's still possible in Ultimate if Season Pass 3 happens but that's unlikely.
    What if the ARMS character is a Hero situation where Spring Man is the default and Ribbon Girl, Min Min and Springtron are alts for him? They can all use each other's gloves and Spring Man, Ribbon Girl and Springtron could be able to kick opponents like Min Min does.
    Did Nintendo appreciate it when Sakurai mentioned the XBOX in the Banjo presentation and encouraged Nintendo's customers to play XBOX?

    Didn't someone at Nintendo once say they don't see XBOX/Playstation as competitors since Nintendo usually tries to offer something different to them?

    It was probably just PR talk, but there may have been some amount of truth to it.

    I think Nintendo is the best gaming company when it comes to negotiating with others and building a solid relationship. Sony doesn't do this as well because they're not a gaming company but a entertainment one that is in all certs of fields like tvs, computers, movies, and games. Surely, Sony cares more about money than it's fans compared to Nintendo who like to be direct and open with it's fans.
