Tbf Dark Samus is DEAD dead with no plans to bring her back, for a franchise without a revolving cast this is pretty significant, especially as Dark Samus would never have gotten in without the echo treatment
epicmartin7's colour predictions and memes, typical Zelda discussions and Rayman fans being sad that their franchise has no future in sight
SEGA, Nintendo and Ubisoft respectively.
I think it's possible an AT could happen, I'm just not sure how likely it actually is, especially Skull Kid. Nintendo prefers first party characters to be on Switch titles, and Majora's Mask isn't on the Switch.
Well, Ridley has died and been revived lord knows how many times now.
Skull Kid being in BoTW 2 is a pretty big if, outside of that it does depend on when the demand for Skull Kid for base game took off. A popular first party is certainly possible, but Skull Kid is not the only one and DLC support/“mindfulness” for a popular first party tends to cascade no further than Waluigi’s very specific WaPo-noticed demand and the conditional “If new Kirby or new DK, then Bandana Dee or Dixie”
Because we have no idea if Skull Kid will even be in BotW2.
Moray Towers is a stage in both Splatoon 1 and Splatoon 2, although the cameo of Li’l Judd would put it more towards the Switch-incarnation of the stage
Not even 15 minutes apart lmao
The issue with Skull Kid is, even if AT's are on the table (which I think they are), Skull Kid doesn't exactly have as much popularity/fan demand as other first party characters. Waluigi, Bandana Waddle Dee, Isaac and probably Dixie Kong all have him beat, whether from a general popularity perspective, smash ballot/smash fan demand perspective, or both.
We know this isn't a requirement, and no one's saying it is.
This reminds me that, I believe it was Imran Khan, mentioned the possibility of a mostly-1st party Pass 2. For that to be true, these last two would both have to be 1st party, and while they don't have them all they do have an overwhelming majority of their 1st party characters from their games already on Switch in Ultimate already. Gonna have to branch out eventually.
I think that the discussion around Skull Kid and other first party non-Switch populars follows the same principle as the discussion around the Champions: People love them, but they might be uneasy only repping one of them. Out of the ATs, Waluigi is seen as the best shot, and out of the popular first party clicque, people are still waiting for a tie-breaking game to pull one of them ahead to frontrunner status. Otherwise, Bandana Dee, Dixie Kong, Waluigi, Skull Kid (Might be missing some) all fall into the same boat and are all interchangeably discussed, which doesn’t help them stand out in speculation
So hold on, I've mostly been lurking recently. But what is the exact colour that he has come up with?
To be fair, the Metroid Queen isn't really an unique individual, and there could be others.
He tries to predict what colours will be used as the background, he called green for Pythra and is calling pink and blueish green for the last two characters iirc
He said he completely overhauled his colors, but he didn't post them today for some reason.
Lynel chads ww@
Right here. Actually would be a great rep, and out of all the mooks I'd enjoy it more than
.
Arguably the most iconic character from Breath of the Wild
It would be just another Link clone or part of he Triforce yet again.
It's more than 24 hours away from the Direct though. The Direct is at 12:00 PM EST. It's 7:00 AM EST now, meaning it's 29 hours away.
I don't like that mindset at all. Those few characters aren't the only options for their respective franchises, and this happend in the past.
Mmh, my post wasn’t about “these characters are next in line”, but rather about how these characters all have an exceedingly passionate support base. The thing you talk about is something different but is a valid point nonetheless. It can overlap (Dixie is the most requested from the DK series now, same with Bandana Dee.) but it doesn’t have to be the case (I’d argue Impa fits the mold of “next-in-line” more, whereas Skull Kid is the one with the big supoort base, Waluigi has the outcry but someone like Toad or Paper Mario is seen as a more logical next)
I understand; my post wasn't specifically referred to you, but since you mentioned that type of reasoning as a part of your argument (even though it's not your point of view specifically), I quoted it as a reference. (probably that one was not the best post to quote though, my bad).
As for the idea of potentially getting an as-of-now unrevealed character among the last two fighters...that would be absolutely unprecedented. People like to point to Byleth, but like... we'd known about Byleth since their brief appearance in the first Three Houses trailer at E3 2018, their game released in July 2019, and their Smash reveal and release was January 2021. That's still a full year and a half from when we first saw Byleth, to their Smash reveal.
Wednesday for me in the southern hemisphere.
It's true, but you shouldn't say it...
Yeah, I know, but in my eyes, close enough.
At the least, let the Final Hours track appear at around the 1-2 hours left mark. Hearing the Final Hours track around 12 hours before the Direct sounds weird to me.
I understand. Thing is, I was counting the day itself, not the day plus the additional hours before the Direct, if you know what I mean.
I do think it’s worth bringing up Corrin in this scenario. When Corrin was revealed, their game had been out for a few months in Japan but was still ~3 months out from release in NA and half a year out from launch in Europe.
