Thats fair, though Smash Marketing normally avoids that kind of thing (If I remember correctly that is).
Yeah, theres no way we don’t at least get a Spirit Event or Mii Costumes.
I feel like that ship has sailed. Hasn’t happened for the past 2 years, why start now?
Peer-to-peer is better for one-on-one fights, though. I mean, why would you bother connecting two players to a central server, when you could just connect them directly?
Counterpoint; they DID randomly drop Small Battlefield on us out of nowhere. WITHOUT a character.
...what do you mean? That happens in literally every update.
That was just a quick little thing based on an existing stage because the devs felt like the normal battlefield was too big. It's most likely a one-off thing.
Yeah, your edit is right.
I think it had more to do with the fact that the FGC doesn't like normal battlefield. And the whole point of it was to make it so the FGC could use every level(Nintendo WANTS them to show off all the levels at tournaments).
I don't think that it's for Capcom as a whole, but specifically for Monster Hunter as Nintendo would most likely prefer Rise getting pushed more while it's exclusive to Nintendo instead of when it goes multiplat
When was the first time?

I don't know if I necessarily agree that it'll be monster hunter playable characters, but I definitely think all signs point to a Capcom character coming - and of course the monster hunter costumes, and perhaps a spirit event coming alongside or shortly following that. With Terry we have precedent for characters bringing content from not just their base game, but from games from their company's whole repertoire.
Terry was a special case. SNK's works are a lot more connected than most, largely because of King of Fighters assimilating the bulk of their big series. Capcom does seem to have a shared universe going on with Street Fighter, but it still has a lot of other big games that are completely separate, like mega Man, Monster Hunter, and Resident Evil. I think the only scenario where we get a general Capcom pack is with Marvel vs. Capcom, which might be a bit of a copyrights issue.
I've seen the argument used for other Capcom characters like Chun-Li as well, especially since the MH costumes are still absent and many feel they could be used for Rise promotion.
That's true, I'm just saying the possibility is there. This is specially true if the character is someone like Chun-Li, Sakurai might take it as an opportunity to bring other content to Smash instead of just SF stuff, which Smash already has some content of.
I'm not sure if Terry was their only pick. He was definitely the most obvious, but during the day or two before he was revealed and Nintendo spoiled the SNK thing there was a lot of debate over who the character could be. Plus, from what Sakurai implied, the amount of content had less to do with Sakurai and more to do with SNK saying yeah just take everything.

I don't think it'd really work out that way. Like I said before, SNK is a special case because King of Fighters tied together pretty much all of their major series, not to mention the fact that they're a much smaller company that evidently had a much smaller price tag, if the 50 songs are any indication. Maybe a couple Street Fighter-related series, but I feel like Chun-Li would end up representing SF3 and Alpha specifically based on her connections to those games, rather than just being the general Street Fighter rep for the sake of Street Fighter. Not sure how many crossovers there were in those games, but I think it would cut down the amount of non-SF content.

MH is like a Gen 8 Pokémon; there's so many logical reasons for it to get in, yet its so easy imagine a scenario where they don't.
Ys SEVEN is really fun, enjoy it. It has some fantastic scenario themes in my opinion.
Again, I agree with you that SNK is likely a special case. I'm just saying I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out the opposite, given Smash's history for breaking expectations.
Yeah there are certain characters that feel like they'll inevitably come. The big difference is whether they come in the base game or in the theoretical Smash 6. While Smash still has tons of potential characters, there really are only so many obvious inclusions that aren't already in the roster. I think it's kinda funny though that a lot of the obvious inclusions, at least in my opinion, come from Capcom (Monster Hunter, Chun-Li, Resident Evil).
It is actually a different character, but it seems to have been retconed to just "Fake Bowser" since then, so it might not actually be his brother anymore.
I know it's not Dark Bowser from BIS but damn it, that's the closest I'll get!
Here are some picks I know no one is talking aboutThis probably has been discussed a lot before, but I'm curious. Who is the most obscure/least discussed character that you want? In other words, who is your pipe dream want?
For me, it's my man Crypto.
He can summon meteors, throw people around with psychokinesis, has a weapon that is effectively a grenade launcher that ionizes humans and blows stuff up, he can summon an underground beast and a venus human trap, has a gun that shoots rainbows balls that pick people and objects up and bounces them around the place while dealing damage, and can combine objects into a ball and throw it.
Oh yeah, he also has a flying saucer of death and sounds like Jack Nicholson. What's not to love?
Something I'd like to point out is that Falcom's songs are all made by the same sound team. That's a major reason I think a Falcom rep could bring songs from the company's entire catalogue; It's all owned by the same team, so they can easily snag some songs from other series while they're at it.
I imagine the tracks would be available on general stages for those who already enjoy them on a particular stage, and then just also available on the dedicated Monster Hunter stage with brand new tracks that are exclusive to that stage.
1. Both the Hunter Armor and the Rathalos Armor are the most marketed Hunter armors, next to the Rathian and Kirin armors. So despite both being Mii costumes, they are almost certainly the guaranteed armors on the Hunter. That said, some other notable armors include the Yukumo armor, the Lagiacrus armor, the Zinogre armor, the Barioth armor, the Nargacuga armor, the Rajang armor, the Gore Magala armor and the Guild armor.
Not a Monster Hunter fan, but I can still say it would almost certainly be the Rathalos Armour. Mii Costumes and the characters they're based on can coexist, it's just that for DLC, seeing the costume first means that the fighter isn't on the way.
Do you think those are the two armour sets we'd get then assuming the male and female variants don't have different armour sets?
Assuming we don't get different armors, it's a toss-up between the Hunter armor or the Rathalos armor.
