REALLY glad you two aren't in charge of any rosters.
I was mildly offended at this at first, but then I realized how true of a statement it is. Honestly, 99% of the Smash fanbase is probably happy, because I'm not in charge of the roster.

Though to be fair, I would never really cut Mewtwo or Charizard.

Though I would put in Wolf and Bill Grey (instead of Krystal). Oh, and Reyn would be in there too. He needs to have his time! Inkling would be DLC by now, as well.

In my opinion Smash 5 could be a reboot game without Sakurai, or well Sakurai with less influence on the game, like an adviser.

Could be more like an arcade style-game.

Could be similar to KOF XIII, MvC3 after MvC2, and Mortal Kombat 9 after Armaggedon; with more elaborated and designed characters with a smaller number, especially with "filling characters", could be very difficult to develop a huge number of characters, similar to the present, in terms of memory and costs, I think that increasingly is coming to increasingly more difficult to reach top.

It would be nice in a way that will maintain the current game in force while is promoted Smash 5 as an alternative to Smash 4, not being a substitute as has happened before.


NUMBER OF CHARACTERS: MIN 25 - MAX 40 (It isn't Dragon Ball game :troll:)
ESRB: T

My predicions:
  1. ORIGINAL 12 :dk64::falcon64::jigglypuff64::kirby64::fox64::link64::luigi64::mario64::ness64::pikachu64::samus64::yoshi64:- YES
  2. :4shulk: -YES
  3. :4bowserjr:-CUT, cameo
  4. :4charizard:-MAYBE
  5. :4darkpit:-MAYBE
  6. :4dedede:-CUT, cameo
  7. :4drmario:- ALT MARIO or Full character
  8. :4duckhunt:-MAYBE
  9. :4greninja:-CUT
  10. :4myfriends:-YES or CUT if he hasn't new games
    He could be the SMASH Sol Badguy or Kyo Kusanagi
  11. :4lucario:-CUT, cameo
  12. :4lucas:or :4ness:
  13. :4lucina:-CUT by a new FE LORD
  14. :4marth:-YES
  15. :4megaman:-CUT
  16. :4metaknight:-YES
  17. :4mewtwo:-MAYBE
  18. :4mii::4miif:-MAYBE
  19. :4olimar::4alph:-MAYBE, if we have PIKMIN 4
  20. :4palutena:-YES
  21. :4pacman:-MAYBE if NAMCO developes the game, or HEIHACHI as a TEKKEN rep
  22. :4rob:-MAYBE
  23. :4robinm::4robinf: - CUT by a new FE AVATAR
  24. :rosalina:-YES
  25. :4feroy:-YES if he have a remake of FE6, we need more ph1r3 in FE xD
    He could be the SMASH Sol Badguy or Kyo Kusanagi
  26. :4ryu:-YES
  27. :4sonic:-MAYBE
  28. :4tlink:-CUT or LINK ALT
  29. :4villager::4villagerf:-CUT
  30. :4wiifit:-CUT
  31. :4zelda:-YES
  32. :snake:-MAYBE
  33. :wolf:-YES
  34. :popo:-CUT, cameo
  35. OTHER SMASH 4 CHARACTERS -YES
  36. OTHER CUT 1rt-P VETERANS :pichumelee::younglinkmelee::pt::squirtle::ivysaur: - CUT AGAIN xD
Why would they cut :4dedede: but keep :4metaknight: on the roster? Doesn't make sense to me honestly. Same goes for :4megaman: and Ryu if Capcom comes to an agreement with Nintendo again.

Well if Smash 5 could be a reboot WITHOUT SAKURAI and I think that could be smaller the roster xD
Not problem if keep :4dedede:


This is my roster WITH SAKURAI

@ POKEMANSPIKA POKEMANSPIKA
If Sakurai will return for Smash 5 could be similar to Smash 4 plus the Adventure Mode and graphics for Brawl.
With :popo: and :olimar: with 6 pikmin.

With similar number of confirmed characters (approximately 50) and cut characters :4lucina::4tlink::4wiifit::4alph::4robinm::4greninja::4megaman::linkmelee::pichumelee::pt::snake::4ryu:

Even if they make another game without Sakurai, they won't remove HALF OF THE ****ING ROSTER. Smash is not Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat or Tekken or Soul Calibur or another random fighting game here. Its Smash. So many people would be pissed off and not buy the new Smash if this happened.

Same here, my roster would be so boring. It takes someone much greater than me to think up Wii Fit Trainer or Duck Hunt, R.O.B and Game and Watch, Olimar, Pit etc etc

How about we all wait like 5-7 years until they announce the next Smash game and see who gets the cut (if any).

And here's a random question for y'all here...What kind of music y'all listen to?

Usually Sonic, Mega Man, and Castlevania soundtracks....along with a few others that happen to catch my interest, like NiGHTS for example.

A little of this, a little of that. Metal, Rock, and Classical are probably my favorite genres.
Hate Country and Rap/Hip-hop though.

If it has lyrics, I prefer not to listen to it. Songs with lyrics are going down the drain, so I try to ignore them. There are exceptions however.

Though I prefer Dubstep, Electronic, Techno, etc.

Only ten days until August starts, guys. Just 10 days. Whenever the Direct comes up after August, let us all hope Wolf is in it.

I know we have the Smash update which at the minimum will be Tourney mode and stages with possible new DLC announcements but will it be part of the direct or its own thing? Also have Nintendo confirmed the Direct date? They are every 2 months arent they?

We know Peach's Castle 64 and Hyrule Castle 64 are coming next month, we'll probably get a mini Direct on the day they drop, like we did with Lucas.

Wow, who is actually complaining about off-topic? By All means if you have any SFZ or Smash Related News or Information you wish to discuss or share please do instead complaining that no-one is talking about it. There are going to be periods in between where sometimes nothing happens. Deal with it.

We know Peach's Castle 64 and Hyrule Castle 64 are coming next month, we'll probably get a mini Direct on the day they drop, like we did with Lucas.
Looking at Previous years they had a proper Direct in Aug 2013, and in Aug 2014 Game related directs so it probably will be a Smash mini-update like the E3 one, not to mention without Iwata or a new president if the new president or Nintendo generally speaking decides to keep doing Directs it most likely will be similar to the Smash E3 thing.

Tho no Krystal so I like it

As I usually come to thinking random questions when sleeping, yesterday I happened to think of how Wolf could be announced. The more I thought, the more worried I am. Reading this post, I felt even more so.

Y'know, if we failed this time, then Wolf is really gone for the whole 5-7 years.

August is just around the corner now. Last chance for Wolf in my opinion.
It's far from his last chance. Still have October to consider which is when a direct of some kind would be expected and/or Smash Ballot.

I think the only time to actually worry is if Smash Ballot announces the "Winners" and SFZ releases and we have zero information on Wolf whether its an announcement or a release date.

I made you feel that by making this post? I am really sorry for doing that! I do believe Wolf will get in, but I didn't mean to make you more worried. Once again, I am sorry for what I did.

I think any worrying would be due to lack of confirmation as opposed to there being legitimate reasons as to why he wouldn't come back.

All the factors that gives credibility to Wolf being a very likely return still exist, Nintendo will always do whatever it thinks will be best in terms of marketing and hype. It makes more sense to reveal Wolf closer around SFZ/Smash Ballot since they don't want to crowd the DLC all in one go as we did get 3 characters in June.

Think of everyone who has ever been Cut

Snake - Likely due to licensing issues along with Kojima/Konami thing. Also 3rd party characters without a strong relationship with Nintendo aren't exactly on solid ground to begin with.

IC - Tech reasons, not likely to return until Smash 5 however Sakurai did state also that they dont have a good chance of having a game anytime soon

Young Link - Replaced with Toon Link

Mewtwo - Just didn't have the development time, always planned to be in though

PT - Changed into Charizard due to the removal of transformation mechanic due to 3DS.

I'd say Wolf is more in the Mewtwo category.

The last bit of Wolf content I have on my computer. A childish fantasy Star Fox x Xenoblade crossover I made. This will literally never happen, but I can dream. Looks like I'll need to make more gifs. Anyways, what do you guys think? What kind of SF crossovers would you guys want?

Mewtwo felt like a DLC testfire for me, tho.

I know Wolf has literally no reason to be cut, but the more I try to make myself confident of his chance, the more I worry. Maybe it's just me... :(

To be fair Mewtwo was a test. Mostly to see if demand was there and to get the infrastructure and distribution set up. If it succeeded (which it did) then it was easy to continue the rollout since everything was in place. If it didn't it could easily have been passed of as a one time promotion and that would have been the end of it. When I compared Wolf to Mewtwo, I imagine they both were planned however just didn't make the development timeframe for various reasons.

There is definitely a point at which to worry, which is when Smash Ballot is finished and SFZ is looming/has released. At that point I'll be the first to jump on the Worry Nuclear Powered Train. Until there, there is very little reason to worry but instead be quite confident.
