Well yeah, that's why I don't believe the rumor.I'm not investing on the rumor, but I'm not denying it either. That's how I always roll, but I always keep the skepticism high.
Yeah but the rumor says it's either both or nothing, you can't have just one.
What's the point of this comment? It's a support thread, my man.Nintendo has already deconfirmed Waluigi in Smash. If you want to play Smash Bros. with Waluigi, then Super Smash Flash 2's 1.2 update is the game for you.
Well, there was something leaked on papagenos discord about Waluigi and someone else. He explained the leak in his recent video. I don't know if he's that active though here. I haven't really seen him here. I hope it's true, but I don't wanna get my hopes up.Nintendo has already deconfirmed Waluigi in Smash. If you want to play Smash Bros. with Waluigi, then Super Smash Flash 2's 1.2 update is the game for you.
Better not want Bandana Dee or Lloyd then, because Smash Flash 2 has them as well!Nintendo has already deconfirmed Waluigi in Smash. If you want to play Smash Bros. with Waluigi, then Super Smash Flash 2's 1.2 update is the game for you.
I Will take your bregudging support and I will use it to further the cause! Thank you kind sirI don't believe the Paragon leak for a second. Obviously the guy knew some things about Hero and Banjo, but the rest is prime-cut memery. It's not impossible for Waluigi to miraculously make it in despite everything (personally, I think it's better if they save him for the next game), but an Undertale character? That's where it loses me completely.
I'm not a hater, but let's be real: Sans is a Goku or Shrek-tier meme pick. The mechanics of Undertale are completely incompatible with the mechanics of Smash (how on God's green earth are they going to make the "Only 1 HP but super hard to hit" thing work?!). And I don't see a character from a tiny zero-budget Western indie RPG getting into a pass with Joker, Hero, and Banjo-Kazooie. I mean, maybe I'll eat my words, Smash is crazy and there are basically no rules, but this is not a bet I'd take.
As for Waluigi himself, as a character... eh, I'm not crazy about him, but like I said in the Banjo social thread, Ultimate has already spoiled me crazy hard with King K. Rool and Banjo, so I'm not going to sit here hoping that other people don't get the characters they want. So, sure, put me down as a supporter.
I have heard people say that Sakurai hates Waluigi and whatnot, but I don't see it as that like you said. Maybe he doesn't have much interest in Waluigi?Really? People took that Waluigi Miiverse post as an attack against Waluigi? Personally, I never saw it like that. Fans can get so passionate over a fictional character that I understand why Sakurai needed to elaborate that he wasn't playable. Then he threw in the Just because you try hard, doesn't mean you'll make it into the battle, which I saw as a consolation prize but Sakurai's such a troll I understand how it can be easily misinterpreted.
Even if Sakurai hates Waluigi, he didn't pick the DLC. So I'd say Waluigi has a fair shot. Not a likely shot, but a fair shot.
Anyhow, Waluigi's my most wanted character and I'd love to see him in. The Mario spin~offs are profitable enough to warrant their own character and Waluigi represents the chicanery and wackiness of these games so well.
Some have posited the idea of a "fourth~wall~breaking" moveset. I'd rather have him be a coward that fights dirty, having a move that steals the charge of a Smash Attack, or summoning Bob~ombs as Pikmin~like allies! Stuff like that would reflect his character best I think.
Even though they are legally under Microsoft, I still don't call Banjo & Kazooie Microsoft or third party characters. To me, they will always be icons of the N64 era and part of the Nintendo family that now have that icon status cemented forever.The person says specifically that some people have said to them that Sans is not the Undertale rep, but it's not 100% certain. If anything, they imply Frisk is the most likely one for the Undertale rep
And why would Sans kill it? I don't really see a reason he couldn't get it. I mean we have a Microsoft character and other "rule breaking" or "game breaking" characters in the game already, why wouldn't Sans be eligible?
Could be a situation similar to K. Rool where they're just oblivious to how much people wanted the character. I don't think it's a moveset situation, he obviously got an idea with the Assist Trophy: Mario Sports.I have heard people say that Sakurai hates Waluigi and whatnot, but I don't see it as that like you said. Maybe he doesn't have much interest in Waluigi?
How about something along the lines of "Take the Γ" with Waluigi's signature gamma symbol?this thing is getting a little traction, which is nice. should probably get a better pun for that thread title though
1. So did Villager, Duck Hunt, Wii Fit Trainer, R.O.B, just about any of the most oddball characters have no moveset potential. At least the Undertale character actually have canon attacks they use in their game so there's already a base there.Three reasons (they apply to any Undertale character, not just Sans)
1: none of them has any movesets potential
2: having a character from Undertale in Smash goes against the whole message of the game
3: spoilers. Toby Fox hates spoilers
(Disclaimer: I love Undertale, this is not me hating, I just think it's virtually impossible that it gets a character in Smash)
Okay this i have a problem with. Sans is NOT a "Goku or Shrek" character. People legit want him, he's extremely popular in polls (specially in Japan as i mentioned in my earlier post) and He's a video game character and i'd say nowadays a pretty recognizable and popular one at that.I'm not a hater, but let's be real: Sans is a Goku or Shrek-tier meme pick. The mechanics of Undertale are completely incompatible with the mechanics of Smash (how on God's green earth are they going to make the "Only 1 HP but super hard to hit" thing work?!). And I don't see a character from a tiny zero-budget Western indie RPG getting into a pass with Joker, Hero, and Banjo-Kazooie.

I'm not as active as I used to be here, but I am around!Well, there was something leaked on papagenos discord about Waluigi and someone else. He explained the leak in his recent video. I don't know if he's that active though here. I haven't really seen him here. I hope it's true, but I don't wanna get my hopes up.
I still think there's more to the paragon leak than we know as of now, but with paragon disappearing and your video on it it's got me really confused about the whole thing. The alt account thing especially, makes me wonder if paragon was the alt account in disguise, though maybe if this leak is real, they did that to be able to leak the info without begin caught thanks to their supposed C&D? Idk but the whole thing stinks like last weeks tuna salad.I'm not as active as I used to be here, but I am around!
it was "an undertale rep" and Waluigi as the final two DLC fighter pass characters, this was coming from a former mod on my discord channel named "paragon". They claimed to have a source related to amiibos and they correctly predicted that the dragon quest 11 protagonist and banjo kazooie would be part of the DLC before E3.
View attachment 229044 this was the image they made before E3, at first they thought the DQ11 protagonist would be shown at the smash invitational tournament a few days before E3.
However, some rather sketchy stuff happened after E3 that cause me to doubt the validity of the whole thing. I dont want to explain it all again but it involved some mysterious person using an "alt account" and showing several people on my discord an image of a supposed DM conversation between them and paragon that suggested paragon knew the entire E3 nintendo direct before it happened (though paragon never told anyone who could back up this claim), paragon also claimed to have been sent a cease and desist from nintendo despite that being a very rare thing and never showed anyone any proof that the cease and desist actually existed, and eventually me and some other people on discord figured out that the DM conversation that showed paragon "knowing" information about the E3 nintendo direct early was extremely unlikely to be real... after we made our findings public, paragon stepped down as a mod for my discord and left.
So essentially the original part of the supposed "leak" seemed fairly plausible, but now the validity of the whole thing is called into question due to the very sketchy circumstances of the newer events surrounding this one. Personally at this point I'm highly doubtful of the entire thing... but for the record I think Waluigi would be an awesome final surprise DLC character if it happened.
Eh, i feel even if sakurai doesn't want him, nintendo is gonna push for Waluigi, whether it's cause of what's happened now during this game or cause Waluigi get's more roles in future games and releases. Not to mention, although he has teased waluigi and waluigi fans a lot (the plushy during the e3 smash 4 direct, the taunting miiverse post, etc), he's never said anything about waluigi actually. like, ever i think. strange cause you'd think someone would have asked him about the whole waluigi issue by now, a full year after the e3 reveal.I wouldn't say a lock since sakurai doesn't seems to want waluigi in smash if he's not in the dlc after the waluigi drama then he probably never be in smash unless it's not sakurai who's making it but i reaally hope waluigi is one of the two dlcs or dante or both that would be the dream
That's fair enough, and yeah, I'd rather have him now that much, much later.Well maybe,but if he arrive in the next game that wouldn't have the same impact since it'll probably be a reboot and how many years will we have to wait for this ?I mean i'm usually not that impatient but we're waiting for waluigi for ages now it would be better if he's one of the dlc (or having another character that i love to make the wait more bearable )
Square isn't as stingy as people make them out to be. The only "evidence" people have for them being stingy is the lack of FF7 music and spirits in Smash Ultimate, but the music rights and the licensing for the art is all screwed up. Several different companies and people own FF7's soundtrack and Tetsuya Nomura owns the artwork for FF7. Considering that Square was working on getting all the music back and remade for the FF7 remake and how Nomura was very busy working on Kingdom Hearts 3, it is very likely that they couldn't get the art and music because Square and Nomura were too busy with their other projects.I thinks because of the third party it would be difficult because they will have to ask the copyright for each character and that's a lot of difficulties especially in regard of square enix

I see... But still with all the companies who have copyright for their character it would be difficult to have a simple port of the game with more content I would love to but that seems unlikelySquare isn't as stingy as people make them out to be.

I don't think Sakurai hates Waluigi, rather he either doesn't take him seriously or he can't figure him out as a fighter. If it's the former we're cool, fan demand will trump that and Piranha Plant shows that Sakurai will make fighters out of non-serious characters. If it's the latter we're in Ridley's position, so it may take a while but we'll get there if we stay strong.I wouldn't say a lock since sakurai doesn't seems to want waluigi in smash if he's not in the dlc after the waluigi drama then he probably never be in smash unless it's not sakurai who's making it but i reaally hope waluigi is one of the two dlcs or dante or both that would be the dream
Hey, nobody said this was a short-term play. It's definitely taken way longer than it should have for a character of Waluigi's status, but the more characters added the less characters that stand in Waluigi's way. It has to come down to him eventually, the dude's all pros and no cons.Well maybe Sakurai doesn't hate him but it's been a while since waluigi fans beg for him to be a playable character and it didn't happen so I'm a little skeptical about it now and even for the next game
I just can't see it happening.I am interested in the whole "Waluigi is the main villain of Luigi's Mansion 3" things gong on though, what's people's thought's on that?
What? Waluigi was still a Tennis guy back in his conception from an entire year before Luigi's Mansion released. You telling me 2001 had crackpot theories like this?Plus I'm fairly sure every Luigi's Mansion game that's come out we've had a rumour that Waluigi was going to be the final villain, even the very first one.
Yeah. Heck, I read that one in Nintendo Official Magazine, a British gaming magazine.What? Waluigi was still a Tennis guy back in his conception from an entire year before Luigi's Mansion released. You telling me 2001 had crackpot theories like this?
Wait, Bandana Dee Main? Is that you?Oh, sign me up.
