I was just surmising that maybe that’s the trailer’s title? Literally “The Final Battle”Yeah I dunno where she got that from since it's clearly hinting Goldman as our final fighter.
I would say being all but irrelevant to a major region does kill their chances of being the final fighter since someone who the entire region is unlikely to know would unquestionably be a huge disappointment.
Just to clarify, I was just memeing. No actual shade was meant to be thrown.
"Mankind has committed a sin."
Might be a key reason why mods usually replace existing material instead of adding say a 9th costume. For example: (Ultimate Salt is Real ep. 51):
While I'm skeptical as well, CERO is not under the government's purview AFAIK unlike China's NPPA (National Press and Publication Administration, which says a lot). Still though, while both do have somewhat similar notions on brutal violence - even if they're enforced very differently. CERO does allow RE games to release even if they're Bowdlerized. The NPPA is even stricter: I don't believe RE has ever gotten an official Chinese release, nor does it look likely since RE2 Remake was banned.*
Especially since it sounds suspiciously like a monkey on typewriter scenario.
Didn’t VR Plant leak Plant (ha!) as well thoMight be a key reason why mods usually replace existing material instead of adding say a 9th costume. For example: (Ultimate Salt is Real ep. 51):
Likewise, the custom "GAME!" text / music overrides something else. The timestamped person below uses Cuphead's GUI - incl. "KNOCKOUT!":
It does bring up an interesting question if they could take advantage of the expanded memory space on the next console, however.

Which in turn does give MK a hypotheoretical avenue - it's just that Netherrealm / WB do not see that as worth it since the gore and Fatalities.
If Netherrealm / WB wanted to though they probably could reinvent the wheel a bit and enter the Japanese market through that way. Or create a MK anime - while I'm not sure how anime is regulated in Japan I don't get the impression that the blood / gore question is as strict when it comes to anime considering gory anime like Berserk and Fist of the North Star exist.
But they'd have to consider it worth it - which might be the main reason why they didn't release the Injustice games officially in Japan.
*Although that doesn't stop those interested there: RE games have been sold under the counter on Chinese webshops, using code names like “First Day on the Job at the Police Station: Remake” (People also sell the likewise-banned AC New Horizons under code numbers like "Number 85"):

Then again, if any 4chan leak turns out true like that Plant leak (IIRC) I'm gonna laugh out loud.
I am Goldman. You are all disturbing the LOIFE Cycle. This is the Final Battle!

If i see that word one more time..
Dunno, but if it weren't the case the main reason you'd want to not make more slots (assuming you've figured out how without crashing the game since that's also a pretty big barrier) is that it wouldn't be online safe; something would go wrong be it crashing the opponent's game or getting detected and banned.
Mallocaco
Hero was a straight forward moveset but it did affect how he played in the long run, which is complex as it requires an extra level of thinking when factoring in RNG. and definitely more so than Terry, even if skill is less of a factor. Pyra and Mythra too were likely complex to make just by virtue of them being two different characters and Kazuya is definitely more complex than Terry. Feels odd you didn't mention that lol. IDK how this ties into what you mean much but yeah.
We're going to see the brunt of those thoughts at some point, whether it'd be LoL or Crash Bandicoot or something else notable. Heck, I'm positive we were seeing them for a bit when we learned Konami was coming back into Smash Ultimate. But regardless, world reality will sink in deeper at some point much to our dismay.
I didn’t really care so much about what Konami did at the time, I literally just wanted Snake back
Rie I am so disappointed in you
We're going to by semantics the song that goes along with it is "theme of the last battle" but I guess final battle can work too unless the title "theme of the last battle" is a US thing
Right, that's why we got Pirahna Plant before Waluigi!
What some of those missing spirits events/tourneys were if there’s no more
Irrelevant, just like Amingo, Buck Bumble, and Homura from Madoka, that's who.
HE WON'T BE IRRELVANT WHEN THEY #FREEMVC2
You insult both Goldman and Amingo????
DAMN son you didn’t need to roast Tougon as well
The funny thing is that every character Piranha Plant laughed at (not counting the Grinch obviously) is still not in the game. The only way this video could possibly age poorly is if Waluigi was the last fighter.
I've been really lovin the theory lately that Byleth didn't replace anyone, but rather they were supposed to be revealed at the Game Awards a month earlier. That's why the trailer has no shock value in it, it was supposed to look like 3H DLC at first.
Best part when he laugh at Geno
Alright, I guess I'll make this a thing.
I don't know about you, but I didn't really think much of Piranha Plant besides "haha funny plant" and I was hyped about it for like a few months. It wasn't a mindbending reveal, it was just "lol funny random"Alright, I guess I'll make this a thing.
Day 1: Piranha Plant
Plant was and will continue to be the strangest, most mind-bending reveal of the entire Smash Bros series. Sakurai reveals that we're getting a bonus character for adopting the game early. We all had ideas racing through our head about what it could be, but not a soul thought "It's going to be a Piranha Plant". Yes, a potted plant beat out Mario characters such as Toad and Waluigi. A character that was not even playable in the Mario spinoffs before the point. And I was all for it. Seeing a Piranha Plant feverishly rush toward its opponents and beat them up for the first time gave me a special type of joy.
Plant was also strange because he was the first and only DLC character that was shadowdropped. We had no idea when he was coming until the moment he was added to the game. No showcase, no warning, no nothing. All of got to experience this character's moveset coming in almost completely blind, which is another aspect of this character I enjoyed.
It's too bad, then, that I tend to forget nowadays that Plant is even in the game. It's like Sakurai had said: the initial shock value had worn off. Now, we have the worst of the DLC character tier-wise who is pretty much defined by a single move: Ptooie. All in all, Plant followed the exact trend these absurd reveals tend to follow: the internet collectively loses their minds only to move on years later. Sorry to be melodramatic, but it's the truth. Nobody really talks about Plant anymore, making him the black sheep of the DLC characters: A DLC character without any DLC sauce.
Which is a shame because the moveset itself is super creative. It's just that in excecution it's just like King Dedede; It's only good at ledge trapping.
I'd argue it was mindbending, but in the "wait wut?" kinda way rather than the "OH MY GAAAAAAAAAAAAAJFWEIOKGVHNAWOIG" kinda way like some of our third parties have been.
