Coming out of lurking, wanted to jump in to support my fellow Banjo-roos! After Grinch, I'm taking everything, no matter how seemingly legitimate, with a grain of salt, and so I'll avoid speculating. But it would be great for the bear and bird to finally come back home.
You've been gone for sometime ,I was kinda wondering what happened as your were one of the more vocal BK fans on this thread months ago.

Well good to see a regular comeback.

I found myself at one point being unable to be positive and motivated with Smash once it came out, and I didn't want to be overly negative. Generally, once I feel like I'm being more cynical than critical, that's my sign to bow out. But I missed a lot of the friends/acquaintances I met on here. Which is why I'll avoid speculation and just have fun chatting. :grin:

I think the reaction to this news is quite the overreaction on both sides. The amount of ****-flinging towards Polar is ridiculous, but I wouldn't pay it any mind. There's legitimately no need to take /v/ seriously. Ignore that.

That said, while this is very interesting and has ignited the flames of support, I can't buy it just yet. Nothing in the world can make me believe Banjo has a chance until I see him in all of his glory, making a return. Let's keep a level head, guys. It isn't over and he is by no means confirmed through this. It does give me a little more reason to hope, though... but I'm gonna hype responsibly.

(Though, if Steve is definitely not in, ouch. I feel... really bad for his fans. The genuine ones, I mean, not the ones spreading that disgusting model. Namely thinking of poor TheCJBrine TheCJBrine on this one.)

This rumor reads like a wishlist from a boomer fan who can’t let go of their irrelevant Rare characters that aren’t iconic to the casual silent majority who voted characters like Goku, Shrek and “Minecraft” to the top of the ballot. Sorry, until Banjo starts showing up on Target t-shirts, his chances are slim to none.

It feels so nice not to just constantly hear Erdrick and Steve at a constant rate though recently that slowed down

And you speak all this with a K.Rool avatar? That's cute.

Boy, what a day huh? A lot of rumors flying around about our beloved bear and bird, things are looking up for us! Not many obstacles left, it really seems like they finally have a chance after all these years. Just gotta wait a bit longer, but it's nothing to what we've already waited eh? Only time will tell for sure.

I've got a feeling it won't be too far off, just a hunch. Seems like time is flying for me.

Chuffy will be pulling up any day now I bet. Old King Coal had better hurry it up! Might not make it in time, he can't let us all down like that... In any case, as others have said, do take leaks with a grain of salt. No one wants to be grinched again, right? Glad to see all this activity in here though!

I think it's important to distinguish between a potential leak and a rumor, this being a rumor, and one not corroborated by other insiders, yet. That being said, when I saw Cuphead announced, and all of the Microsoft rumors floating around prior, it makes the idea of Rare Replay/Banjo in Smash more plausible than beforehand. Still, I agree--I won't believe anything until I see Banjo in a Direct.

You guys do realize that "boomers" is an expression that already exists, referring to the baby boomer generation that's way older than anyone of us on here, right?

I've come to see "boomer" on the internet meaning "anyone who's older than me." I recall a while back confused, since by the numbers, I'm 27 and a millennial.

Ah, the perils of written sarcasm.
Oh. Don't recall ever seeing that user in this thread before. Was unfamiliar with the way they write. Sorry.

Still legitimately upset with all the people throwing around "boomers" on the Internet. So stupid lol.

*EDIT*
Whatever happened to "geezers", "fogeys", or "old farts" anyway? Lol

This is the sickest burn I’ve seen towards the Smash Bubble argument and I love it.

I was just on here a few hours ago, and I come back to see the entire place in flames and people running around screaming.

And for good reason.

holy ****.

Update from the guy Sabi talked to:

https://twitter.com/GenosPapa/status/1111473711704666112

I'll waive anonymity to add that I only said 100 per cent cuz I don't think it's true in an analytical sense, with the months-old wishy washy rumors I've heard (I personally don't think MS wants "Steve" to be the mascot of Minecraft), I wanted to privately temper his expectations

I didn't expect the convo would be pasted anywhere. I followed up with him right after that to say that plans could change and he should just take any rumors with a truck load of salt. Any concrete info I have goes up on the site.

Any chance of a sequel to your New and Relevant Characters video if/when Banjo and Kazooie get confirmed?

When I read it, I immediately thought of Poe's law--when what's being parodied is too ridiculous or prevalent, it's hard to distinguish the parody from the parodied. Couldn't pin it down myself, despite the more clearer signs. :lol:

It felt obviously sarcastic to me. Though in the end, I also felt it wasn't necessary at any point. The topic's in praise mode. Why add anything negative just for the sake of it. I mean, it's one thing to look at the rumor and try to dissect it. I feel it's not that ironclad as it appeared at first. I'm fairly skeptical of it. it does make me feel stronger about Banjo's chances, but that's about it.

What is he talking about?
Basically
-Just a rumor
-Take it with a grain of salt
-Said Steve wasn't happening because all the rumors based off him aren't at all logical while also Thinking Microsoft doesn't want Steve as Minecraft's mascot (which to give him credit on this one. A senior editor of a Microsoft centered news site is going to know Microsoft more then the rest of us. )
-Plans can change at any point

Ahh I see. As for all of you this seems pretty awesome but it is a rumor at this point and we must take it with salt. And dont forget everyone...

[QUOTE = "jose verde, post: 23156940, miembro: 429602"] En Project Dream, encontré una canción oculta, creo que es el tema principal al principio. No suena bien, pero puedes modificar esta canción:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_6pPn4zdtw

Lo encontré en:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w72kj20YNA0

El tráiler de Project Dream:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kdCBctyO7pA
Tienes que preguntarle a Rare ahora mismo sobre esta canción, el tema principal principal temprano. Tienes que preguntar a Rare si han found a ROM de canciones de Project Dream, como lo hicieron para Rare Replay, nosotros, los fans, hemos estado esperando durante años en las canciones y los diseños de los personajes beta de Banjo-Kazooie: Gigante, Babe, Elvking y Big Foot y Project Dream desaparecidos: Timmy, Billy el loro, Big Belly, Bully, Cocktail, Ella, Swedish, los padres de Kazooie (iban a aparecer en Dream). [/ CITA]

But the way he worded
"I didn't expect the convo would be pasted anywhere."
Makes me feel like the conversation wasn't supposed to go very far outside a few select people, 4chan easily found the guy half way through the thread on this topic. Makes me feel kinda bad for him.
