Actually, I was thinking that they didn't hire Spanish people because they didn't need them for any character.I think that's more likely due to covid. I seriously doubt they were discussing new characters and proposed a certain character and then Sakurai said "He has a different voice in Spanish, we can't include him!"
What I got from this theory is not that Sakurai "cancelled" a character because he didn't get any Spanish or German, but because he didn't need any Spanish or German voices for the second pass, he didn't bring them back, as opposed to the first one.
Sure, it could be due to COVID, but did it impact the studio so much that they couldn't bring them back at all for any character at all for a year? We will see in a few weeks/months. But I'm on the side we won't get a Pokemon anyway, voice acting or not.
Also I want to hear your DK rap so it has to not happen.
Most of the time Sakurai adds new characters from new games instead of filler characters from old games, so our opinion really doesn't matter much (in Ultimate the only filler character we got is Piranha Plant and to an extent Chrom if you consider Lucina and Robin the "true" protagonists of Awakening).So new characters from new games don’t deserve to be in smash while filler characters from old games do? Geez now I gotta update my “fake rules sakurai has to follow” list
It's just that some filler characters do have a decent following and also popular, such as Waluigi or Toad. I'm not going to lie, I'm still extremely salty Piranha Plant got in before Waluigi despite how cool it is.
