Marty Stratton is the executive producer of Id Software though. Pretty high up for the studio. It’s likely he would know about smash negotiations.And said interview was done by someone of a lower position than Bethesda's president. What we don't know is if the "nothing serious" comment was actually a lie told to him, a subterfuge on his part, or the truth.
Don't remember who or where it was said, butshowed us that key third-party figures can go as far as outright lying to prevent a NDA breach.
I'm not going too hard on this again before claims of me being malicious happen again, but i think the general director of DOOM would be more than aware of any happenings.And said interview was done by someone of a lower position than Bethesda's president.

Could be that a Bethesda character was being talked about, but not a specific character was chosen at the time. Maybe they did decide on him later on and he could be later on in the pass. I mean it could be why there were talks about him in smash in the first place.
By "next" you mean Min Min, right? Or the one after?
Most likely the one after
They are weird, cause spirit event post can mention Resident Evil and Warframe, but mii costumes showcases can’t mention Assassins Creed or Fallout?
Who knows? I don’t see anything there that would have an issue with it.
If we get something like "Super Smash Bros. X Pyramid Head" if we get a Pyramid Head Mii Costume or "Super Smash Bros. X CJ" if we get a costume of CJ from Grand Theft Auto or something, somebody's gotta do some investigating here.
Must be because the Japanese and European ones use the series logos.
Based on what I have seen I guess it’s because advertisements have to have a rating of all content that is used or referenced in America and they don’t want the video to have a mature rating on it. So if Doom slayer gets it Anything talking about the series has to be removed or it will have a E-M rating on it. So they can be reference, but NOA doesn’t want to.
I mean I understand that much, but NoA has been willing to put an E-M rating in their Directs before. Unless there's something preventing NoA from actually flatout mentioning M-rated franchises in a Mr. Sakurai Presents, whether it's lack fo desire to like you said or something else, I still feel like something's missing here. Hell, was Joker's showcase video E-M considering it's Persona we're talking there?
No joke, Pyramid Head as a Premium costume would be freakin' sweet.
I guess it’s because they want the showcase to advertise to younger people but the directs are meant for older audiences
If that was the case, then Nintendo would've called Assassin's Creed and Fallout by other names in Europe and Japan. Also, as for Doom gameplay in a Sakurai Presentation, maybe they can just show the 1993/1994 gameplay? The gore, while still being Doom is...a little dated by today's standards. It'd even go so far as to say it's a little tame. But then again, CERO and ESRB can be unpredictable when it comes to abusable loopholes...
Yeah, the Cacodemons, Barons of Hell and Hell Knights, as far as I'm concerned. And then there's the Lost Souls and Pain Elementals, who don't even have blood. Or are we talking in the context of the modern Doom games?
Classic ones. I'm pretty sure Sak would want to focus on those for history's sake.
They also did not show any old gameplay of Banjo and Kazooie during their presentation. So, they could explain what DOOM is without any footage.
Absolutely. I can see Sakurai making a joke out of it too, saying something like "we would show footage of the games, but it would raise the age rating of this presentation". It would be fine.
Absolutely. And if Doom Slayer gets unique Glory Kills for every character, you could do some brutal stuff while being bloodless. Some can be creative, like force-feeding Charizard its own tail. Others can be slapstick, like using Min Min's arms like a jump rope while they're still attached to her. Or hell, some can even be some decent shout outs, like defeating Ganondorf the same way you finish him as Ganon in Ocarina of Time.
one really unusual overall since it's the only one that wasn't a Sakurai Presents? I hardly think it's a metric to go on from when they actually had gameplay presentation budget.As neat as that would be, I doubt there'd be enough development time for doing that to 70+ characters.
They still had logos of the franchises/games, can’t see why a Sakurai presents has to be different than a showcase.Also, wasn't the
