You said this on page 275 on post 10,997 on this thread. You were telling somebody if they were basing their personal feelings on a argument, that was a weak point. That's why I brought it up.Do we still "desperately" need villains after?]
It's still kinda weird that you brought up it 100 pages later and it wasn't even a basis for argument, I was just asking if we really need to fill a slot when the base game delivered on said category.
Okay than.
Piranha Plant and the Spirits Battle is content released within the past two months. For DLC of most games, that disqualified the idea of a drought.
I'd personally only want to see Crash or Sora after Banjo-Kazooie. I'm of the mindset that a third-party character, even though its not always the case, of course, as characters like Snake, Cloud, Bayonetta, and now Joker have gotten in to Smash, but I believe the best choices for third-party representation should have history or big ties with Nintendo in general. Of course, they should also be big enough and recognizable icons that anyone on the street could probably recognize, so Crash or Sora definitely fit the bill at least. It just sucks characters like Snake, Cloud, Bayonetta, and Joker are more viable choices in this day and age than Banjo & Kazooie because they're easier to negotiate getting in more than going through an entire company just to possibly bring back the bear and bird, especially when their home was originally exclusively on Nintendo consoles. If they do get in though, I'd be more than happy to see whoever else they bring to the table.
I do agree 3rd party characters inclusions should be more focus on their ties with Nintendo's history and that is one of the reasons why I hope we see Banjo & Kazooie at E3. But Crash though has almost as much as of a connection to Nintendo's history as Sonic since he was the face of their biggest rival during the late 90s Sony. Crash would be a awesome consolation prize for us if we don't get Banjo & Kazooie in the Season Pass though.
The spirit battles? That's not news. I guess it helps if you don't already have all the spirits, like I do, to keep playing but it's not news. They have not said anything on the pass or Joker since he was announced. We still don't even have a date. We have possibly April since some ads don't even say coming in April now. Yes in December they confirmed DLC characters will have stages just like newcomers last game but we still don't know Joker's, we don't even know his moveset. The most they have shown on Joker officially is a five-second clip on his back. I'm sorry but right now we have no Smash news and it is a really frustrating wait with poor communication just like any other drought.
I can definitely agree with him being a big icon in terms of having been a big rival for Nintendo back in the 90s along with Sonic, being the closest to matching their success as a cartoony platforming mascot, but sadly, cuz I didn't grow up with Playstation at all, only having gotten the PS4 as my first Sony console in recent years, he just doesn't do a thing for me. I'm sure people would be super hyped if he got in, but for me, Banjo & Kazooie are the only characters that would truly make me hyped. But I'm sure if he got in instead, people would be satisfied with his inclusion. I'd be personally disappointed though to once again not have the bear and bird where they truly belong, especially since they are not only from my all-time favorite video games outside of Smash, games that I grew up with, but because I feel this would be their last chance to get into the spotlight.
I’m not talking about the individual Spirits, I’m talking about the fact that they gave us a Multiplayer version of Spirit Board alongside Piranha Plant at the end of January/start of February.
This roster would feel so perfect or almost complete if we mange to get both Banjo & Kazooie and Crash Bandicoot.
Fine, I'll drop it too but content without updates in the interim isn't a good way to do it. Knowing anything about Joker would make this easier to swallow. This current trend they have with Ultimate of just dropping without warning and buildup is causing droughts whereas the wait should feel easier than DLC in 4.
Who is that?
I think it has to do with better online, conquest mode, more unique modes and, the most important part, way more characters than before. That and they didn’t tell us how many DLC characters we were getting back in Smash 4, most people probably thought Mewtwo would be the only one
It's so weird cause Ubisoft and Nintendo seem super close, even supporting Nintendo on Wii U, and Ubisoft still doesn't seem like they want a fighter. I'd love Rayman almost second to Banjo
Not even the Rabbids have gotten anything more than referencing their appearance in the Mario crossover.
Rayman pretty much doesn't exist in Japan, so I can see why Sakurai wouldn't really want to make him a playable character, even if Ubisoft asked.
The above are all the Rayman games released in Japan and they all sold...yeah.
A free to play Smash clone in which everyone's movesets work the same, with superficial differences. Even being in Brawlout would be better than this.
Better than having nothing at all which at this point is Banjo & Kazooie's situation *sighs*
That's what they said about Mighty Number 9.
And at least in that case, the Mighty Gunvolt games more than made up for that.
It's Capcom so it doesn't have anything to do with Banjo...
Not so much it relating DIRECTLY to Banjo, but more in the line of thinking of: "If she actually leaked this she might be right about Rare Replay coming to Switch"
Once again, still better than Banjo-Kazooie's situation. Other than a guest spot in the Xbox version of Sonic All-Star Racing Transformed, being on Xbox Live Arcade for Xbox 360 and Rare Replay for Xbox One, and a skin in Minecraft recently, there hasn't been a legit appearance of Banjo & Kazooie since 2010 at least (in said aforementioned game).That's what they said about Mighty Number 9.
Granted, it doesn't help that there literally hasn't been a new main Rayman game in years, only a Switch version of Legends in the interim.
This basically hits the nail on the head for the most part. The only thing I disagree with is how Atlus is forcing Nintendo to do anything, because right now that's just an assumption; there's nothing beyond Atlus's past actions to suggest that's the case, and I'd rather not jump the gun and accuse them of anything until we have something concrete.
You forgot additionally that we knew pretty much how Mewtwo would play from when he was announced since he was already in a Smash game.
Well! Seems I stand corrected!Hey
They were in #IDARB
But. Didn't she say that Nintendo was working with rare on a plug and play system? That still wouldn't make sense because this is capcom.
This wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility. If Nintendo's working with Capcom for a plug n play system then IGC's comment would mean something. Not 100% right, but on the right track.
Let's hope that isn't a red herring
She was specifically talking about how the Nintendo/Microsoft relationship began. Things that plugged into your TV was eluding to the N64 classic (which I know for a fact was a thing at one point, whether it releases or not is another story).
