Hitagi didn’t get btfo’d:(

We’re screwed:(
Heck I’m screwed for dissing on steve a lot and it’s too late to change sides:(
Dude, it's honestly getting very tiring seeing you raise the white flag every week or so. Take a break. We've already went into detail why Hitagi is a hack and Vergeben bootlicker. All you are doing by quitting is giving credence to the trolls.

Didn't we already come to the concensus that Hitagi was a fraud... and knew nothing about Smash DLC... jeez. Let it rest already.

I've identified a new leaker that may be important to us understanding Banjo's chances. Here is his picture:

Have to admit this picture perfectly sums up how smash speculation has been for the last year and a half.

Basically something Sakurai himself wanted to put in.
Then even by the user whom I quoted, that alone sets a precedent for any other character being one Sakurai wanted.
Considering Joker, Inceneroar, and every marth clone were added in because Sakurai wanted it then it's safe to say this dlc will not be for the fans, just like Smash 4's DLC, just like most of this roster.

Just ask yourself, why would they add in B&K? And to please the fans/because of the ballot are not a reasons.

What you're saying isn't completely wrong but you are discounting the choices that are here because of fans. Ridley, K Rool, Little Mac, Megaman, Sonic, Wario, even Bowser, and Peach were fan picks. There are picks that happen because fans want it. I won't claim that they are the majority of choices, Ultimate only added two after all, but we only need one fan pick on the pass for Banjo to happen.

I'm questioning your logic in here.

Sakurai didn't want Chrom in and he only got in because of fan demand. Joker proven to be very popular among fans. Smash 4 DLC was full of characters added for fan demand, only Ryu and Corrin being outliers.

Also what says Sakurai wanting a character "makes it not for fans"?

It honestly sounds like your definition of "fans" is "me", because this post reads like that.

First off, yes they are; Sakurai has gone on record saying that Ridley, K. Rool, and the Belmonts were added because of the Ballot, so it's entirely possible that he and Nintendo may have considered that for DLC.

Second, seriously dude, what are you even doing here? Almost all of your posts have been nothing but trying to convince us that Banjo-Kazooie are not happening because of these arbitrary rules that you think exist. Why do you keep bringing these things up when they don't matter?

And Dedede and Diddy because they were the two most wanted on the Brawl poll.

Let's remember to report trollish posts, not target and make fun of other users. If they are bringing up bad points, refute them. If they are causing issues, report the posts so the moderation can handle it. Don't backseat Moderate either. Don't attack other users for their opinions(no matter how bad they are). The forum rules apply to all, and that includes respecting other members of the forum, regardless of who they are.

Please use the report function more often so the moderation can see the issue directly. Let's imagine if I wasn't a member of this thread here quite often. Nobody would know of this user among the moderation, and we couldn't do anything to help. That said, please report the posts as they come up so we can look at them.

That is all. I hope we can all work together to make this thread a more friendly place. It starts with you helping us know what's going on so we can enforce the rules to ensure friendliness. As ironic as that sounds in a way.

Ok, so if Earthworm Jim can get a new game after all these years then I feel more confident that a new Banjo game can get made I hope.

There really is not anything you said with which I can agree (most of this roster was fan service from my POV, at the very least), but most importantly- it does not matter.

Even if you were correct, we know at one time that Sakurai did want Banjo.

Potential death blow. If this is accurate (guy leaked E3 stuff accurately in the past) then Banjo's officially done:

https://twitter.com/Master0fHyrule/status/1121961747085242370
All II am literally finding is that the guy said some people would return.

This lines up with another rumor that popped up on Twitter on April 24 from MasterofHyrule. An anonymous source told MasterofHyrule that Bayonetta, Shulk and Duck Hunt Dog will return to Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo Switch.
https://www.newsweek.com/nintendo-e3-2018-super-smash-bros-pokemon-switch-901553
Backstory I guess, since it's gone and no one barely talks about this. A Youtuber named MasterOfHyrule during E3 2017 claimed the whole layout of Nintendo's E3 last year, he got it right even though it could be just a educated guess. This year he came back with the same source, except he came back with the corner(?) of battlefield, names some imports they got for props (Like Bayonetta's boots), and "confirms" Shulk, Bayonetta, and Duck Hunt are back. Then his source got almost busted so he took off any trace of the "leak" existing.

At best all he got was early access to the E3 floor.

But if, hypothetically, the 2019 floor plan hints at a Steve reveal, then this is pretty big.

I'm as pro Banjo and anti-Steve as you get. But this isn't "some random person". He could be wrong, and he's got stuff wrong in the past (he said he heard Geno and Sora were in), but this guy isn't just Hitagi or Xenother. He has some credibility especially when it comes to E3 stuff.

Ok so. He has all the signs off a classic leaker who is just trying to get attention
-Somethings to his name so he can claim credibility for
-Vague
-Says there are signs
-Doesn't explain what signs
-Expects us to believe him without proof
And besides. If we assume he is just someone that has access to the E3 floor (or knows a guy who does)currently. With how secret Nintendo has been about characters. Why would they just outright put a "Steve is in smash" directly on the E3 floor this soon? Nintendo of all people should know how soon stuff from the e3 floor leaks out.

I feel like every time I look in this thread I age a few years from stress

Papagenos Discord has done a good job of gathering info on what he's nailed:

He got the hat mechanic from Odyssey: https://twitter.com/Master0fHyrule/status/867874974807326724
He got that their floor would be themed after New Donk City: https://twitter.com/Master0fHyrule/status/867870316420378625
He got Battlefield and the returning cast for Ultimate: https://www.ssbwiki.com/Leak#Battlefield_and_E3_2018_Booth_leak

So MissingGlitch is most likely right: He just got access to the E3 floor.... but if something on the E3 floor indicates that Steve is joining Smash then this is officially game over

With how secret Nintendo has been about characters. Why would they just outright put a "Steve is in smash" directly on the E3 floor this soon?
This same thing is how Mario Maker got leaked a few days in advance. It just kind of happens

Game leaks are different then e3 floor leaks. Mario Maker 2 was talked about for several months before it was officially announced. I still think Nintendo knows better then to just put a big reveal like that out on the floor. Everything this guy has leaked has been really non-essential stuff that would be put on the e3 floor. Right now it would just be generic Smash booths set up. Nintendo would be dumb to just plaster Steve's face on all of it.

I am just...so tired of this hope game we play here. We build up hope by proof we find. And then we always let one thing come along to destroy everything. It's so tiring. It would have been better off at the start for me to not have any hopes for any characters I wanted and assumed the worst possible picks.

Be honest guys, does Nintendo think that steve will be a big hit at E3 if he were in smash?
It's Minecraft. Kids will beg their parents to buy them anything with the logo on it. It will be a big hit no matter how they show it off.

Let's not freak out just yet. It's important to note that he only mentioned seeing "signs". Vergeben also mentioned Minecraft "content". These things don't necessarily mean having Steve as a playable character, could just be Minecraft stuff like a stage, etc etc.

Now, if it turns out that Steve is definitely in, I'm hoping that its alongside Banjo&Kazooie for that delicious dual-reveal. Gotta stay positive.

That's Product Placement
Regardless it's still going to be huge. Especially since Minecraft nostalgia seems to be at an all-time high right now also.

I've made peace with the fact that if Banjo doesn't get in this game he's never getting in Smash. It's not worth getting hopes up every time.
