It's funny in this image that only the big fish like Sonic and Yoshi are the only ones here with TM on them lol! I know I'm probably wrong here but it just makes the other characters either look unimportant or just not as important lol!
Um....? we stil dunno yet. Hold it in a bit, I like spring too, but this amiibo stuff got me out of the mood.
I actually like Min Min more but I would want Spring Man just as much or more because he would destroy the deconfirmed Assist Trophy fan rule.
I don't know if any of you were around the Ridley thread in Smash 4 or not. But this is more or less what the Ridley fans said back then. When Smash for the 3DS/Wii U started doing Directs or Sakurai started doing his Miiverse thing he would tease Ridley multiple times. Never showing him or outright deconfirming him. Only hinting about the character.
That's what i'm most hyped for. Even if it's not an AT but a spirit, the overall "no upgrades" rule is what will be debunked, even if haters/naysayers later will want to twist it to "hurr durr but it was just this, the other thing wont be ever upgraded hurr durr", it doesn't matter really, as long as something gets upgraded it will destroy the logic that nothing was gonna ever be upgraded. I can't wait!
I dont really see how the Amiibo thing is a strike against him, there's a lot of "evidence" Smash fans bring up for characters' inclusions and they never happen.
teaser didn't last more than a couple of days, and even then the only hint was done in binary.
Remember how Byleth was super secretive as Sakurai mentioned?I dunno, seeing how much Sakurai likes his surprises, if he meant for Spring Man to so obviously be the ARMS fighter, then he wouldn't have approved this whole charade in the first place. Outside of a few incidents in 4, he's generally not one to allow mind games to play out for a significant amount of time, boom, reveal, case closed. Even the
There has to be a little more to it than just Spring Man being the ARMS fighter, I feel, but what it is, I'm not sure.
You're also forgetting we're in a pandemic. There most likely wasn't anything noteworthy to show, or any development on the actual character. And leaving it vague gets more people to talk about the DLC and who it could be. I really doubt it's anything "mindgamey" than that.

I think the topic has clearly moved on to "Nintendo is halfway-lousy about surprising people with something blatantly obvious" at the moment.
That's basically going back to what was mentioned with Ridley by another user with the real kicker being that Sakurai was the one in charge of 4s base game unlike Nintendo being in charge of the DLC now. That basically proves that Sakurai would probably approve.I dunno, seeing how much Sakurai likes his surprises, if he meant for Spring Man to so obviously be the ARMS fighter, then he wouldn't have approved this whole charade in the first place.

What I'm getting at is this: Spring Man is coming with something, and that something is the actual surprise.
At the very least, he'll explain to us why he went to the trouble of allowing this specific case. And he already mentioned cov in the Famitsu articles, so it surely is also something else.
How do you know this is a charade? What if he just wasn't ready to show off the next fighter but still wanted to give is something. Afterall, many people payed money ahead of time for fighters pass 2.I dunno, seeing how much Sakurai likes his surprises, if he meant for Spring Man to so obviously be the ARMS fighter, then he wouldn't have approved this whole charade in the first place.

Regardless whether it's supposedly disappointing or not, it proves one thing: one of the fan rules is dead, and it won't be long until it officially happens.
Just to we're all on the same page, where did Sakurai say the ARMS rep was a special request?
I think it was one of the Famitsu article translations, so it might be tough to find.
It's on Twitter...
got a link?
google translate also says "production request". i thin we'd need a little more context regardless
For clarification, what could "special request" mean in this context?
Google translate isn't the best.
Well Nintendo picked the DLC so that should give you a better idea of what it meant. Either he was just saying how Nintendo requested it or the ARMS devs requested it to Nintendo who then relayed it to Sakurai.
If it indeed is from the ARMS team, we might be getting somewhere. Not very far, mind you.
At least once. Every possibility's been covered.
