This is actually the Second time these designs have appeared, They added them first in a Power Rangers Mobile game alongside M. Bison, Cammy, Akuma and Guile. But Ryu and Chun-li are the only ones with Ranger Designs.
Me when Silksong inevitably doesn't show up in this presentation either.
Another one for the crossover list, unless it's already happened which wouldn't surprise me at all.
Somewhat minor nitpick: Both Kazooie and the Duck are a lot more involved in the normals too - for example both B-Airs:

I'm actually interested no matter what happens, honestly. Usually Directs tend to follow close by, but it ain't a sure-fire thing IIRC.

Sonic's no Nintendo character, but that hedgehog would be proud of this.
We actually went over that a couple of days ago.
One of the most believed fakes from the last game's speculation was a Rayman render. With all the support it had garnered plus the fact that there was a Rayman Trophy in Smash already (not assist trophy; just a trophy trophy) you'd think Ubisoft would have already been approached for him.
Oops, misread the question.If you don’t like Kingdom Hearts, I’m pretty sure you’d rather have one character you don’t want than two
Lol I can't keep up with y'all! I'd love to see Rayman personally, but I just don't see him as very likely given all the Ubisoft content we already have. We'll see...
We have a rider Pokemon already. You can ride Gogoat when he comes out of the pokeball!
Yeah, and that'd also be a great pick for Gen 8's "loose-ends" character.
The internet: speculates about an upgraded Switch coming out soon, again
Weird choices for a second KH character even but I wouldn't mind
Well we did get Sephiroth before a secondary protagonist like Tifa so I think it’s not totally out of the question. What I would love, even if it doesn’t really make sense in universe, is a transform style character that swaps between Ansem, Xemnas, and Xehanort. Since they all exist separately at the same time, it probably makes more sense to tag out than actually transform.
But since we're getting an indie direct soon, would it still fit for the direct to introduce an indie character for Smash?
As far as lords go, Sigurd is mounted from the start, and Seliph, Leif, Eliwood, Eirika, Ephraim, and Claude all promote into mounted fighters (all horses with the exception of Claude, who rides a Wyvern).
The only time Smash has ever appeared in a Indie Direct was because the 2018 one that introduced a Indie Channel to the news part of the Switch had the August 2018 Direct news in the background.
So as mentioned in a post, these were originally made for the mobile game along with a really awesome short film that to me showed the potential of a good Street Fighter live action movie...
I've considered the possibility (Partially because one of my most-wanteds is an indie), but I wouldn't say it's necessarily likely. The Indie Worlds are meant to give the smaller indie games a chance without getting buried by the exclusives and triple-A games. An indie fighter reveal would support an indie game/company, yes, but it would also heavily overshadow the rest of the presentation. As such, I'm not counting on it.
Most likely not, they prefer to reveal characters in General directs or Smash directs and the Indie Directs are neither. Additionally, as said before, Smash would overshadow any Indie games that appealed in them so marketing-wise it would be a poor move to throw a Smash character in there.
I see both of your points there,
That's the best reasoning of something I've read all day.
Quick, everybody start talking about Indie characters in Smash.
Ah, great idea for a topic! I'd really love to see Freddy Fazbear as the indie rep.
Possibly the closest to a MVC type game Ryu and Chun-Li get to be a part of.
While I don't know if an indie character is particularly likely for Smash (the way I see it, if Shovel Knight, Sans, and presumably Shantae couldn't make it in as playable characters, then I don't think that adding indie characters is a priority for the developers), I'd like to see Quote from Cave Story or Miriam from Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night make it in. (or, at the very least, for them to make it into something like Fraymakers)
My most wanted indie is Cadence from Crypt of the Necrodancer. She could mix rhythm elements (timing based attacks) and rogue lite elements (rng weapons and items?). Both genre are unrepresented for now so it would be an awesome opportunity for an original moveset. And it's obvious that Nintendo like the characters because they even did a crossover with her and Zelda. Unfortunately, with all others big indie characters getting only a Mii costume, spirits or Assist trophy I don't think she's that likely, but maybe she will get a mii costume too in one of the last 2 wave. Maybe they can add a music with her if she's coming.
Can't wait for the shoddy port collection that includes OoT, WW, and TP.Next week: Zelda 35th anniversary direct
I can feel it
Still better than what Metroid will have for it's anniversary: absolutely nothing, not even a tweet.Can't wait for the shoddy port collection that includes OoT, WW, and TP.
...While inexplicably leaving out Majora's Mask.
...And only being available for a limited amount of time.
...
Freddy is one of those characters where I would be more impressed than mad if he made it in and they made him work.
Don't forget Sigurd, objectively the best mounted unit in the series
