I’m not saying getting reamed by dolphins against a wall is my fetish. But I’m not not saying it either.
I mean, if you wanted to be honest the top half of the pic would also have Pyra and Mythra, nobody who was actually reasonable thought Rex would ever come without them
Reality is often disappointing...
Not this time, though.
Judging by his Cloud reaction, I bet he would have loved Sephiroth too...
"YoRHa No. 2 Type Butt"
To be fair he needed Hp if youre missing both Arms are in danger and need to save the world you probably would eat something (even if it could be drugged) to regrow them
Not saying she's impossible, but would the characters in the second pass qualify as coming from indie games?
Indie, short for independent, has to do with who is developing and publishing the game. They are games made by smaller teams, independent of larger companies.
I dont think indie games are off the table as playable honestly. Nothing has said that they are. I think its possible its a steve situation mixed with rex and arms situation. They were thought about late and talked about, bit it was too late to add them, so they just went woth spirits, and they had a player icon planned early so they tossed that in still. After fp2 was green lit they put her back on the table. Only time will tell though
Ah. I thought it meant something else. Welp, my bad.
To be fair, Minecraft was once considered indie. It isn't now that Microsoft owns it but even if they never acquired it, you can bet Nintendo still would have sought it out. It's Minecraft after all.
I feel like ayumi and an octoling are set for the next game for sure now. Or a fp3 if that still happens.
I don't remember any of that. I saw an overwhelmingly positive reception for it from as early as its first reveal.
It’s not every character in the 2nd pass, it’s every character in Smash, period. There is not a single indie on the current roster (with the potential exception of Steve who started as an indie character but was not one at the time of his inclusion in Smash)
Not to mention very few series get two all-new mainline entries in the same console. The only ones I remember are Mario, Zelda, Pokémon and Fire Emblem. And these are considered "veteran" series, so for Splatoon to get to this level in so little time is certainly a testament to how much of a success it is.
I saw both, tbh. A lot of people thought it was an interesting new take on shooters, but I also saw a good deal of people saying it was another one of those "experimental Nintendo games" they would leave in the dust after it released, or that it was "too different from other shooters to work".
It was a mixed bag, some were definitely expecting a W101 scale bomb but that was likely more to do with the Wii U in general than Splatoon itself. Funny how big it managed to become.
Yeah i think next game octoling is a shoe in for at least an echo fighter.
Ribbon Girl gets a lot of attention as well, and she's in the game as a Mii costume. I normally don't think Mii costume disconfirm characters, but perhaps Sakurai really does take that into consideration and thus didn't consider using her in the first place, thus prompting him to ask the ARMS director now that the two characters widely considered the protagonists are not usable, who else should he use and if he (the director) doesn't mind a non-protagonist appearing first.
I think he just wanted to ask the ARMS director, period. If Yabuki said Spring Man, we'd get him.
Yeah i guess if we count alts seperatly we have over 100 characters in the game... that is very impressive. Can any other fighter other then mugen boast this?=
- 78 numbered characters (
- 7 echoes (
- 14 character alts (
- Pyra & Myhtra
101 characters
I think people go about costumes and spirits the wrong way. It's not that Sakurai probably literally thinks since he qdded a character as a Mii costume that they can't be playable. Sakurai decides the characters first. The bade roster consisted of Ridley, Simon, King K. Rool, Isabelle, Incineroar and the echoes. Then a lot of the side content can be built around that.
The thing is usually Sakurai never address anything that is already in the game and even then if he want to he usually likes to come up with a fake excuses to not put down a specific fanbase and also to not have his statement be contradicted by himself and bite him in the arse. We already know that Sakurai has a big bias for specific things (looking at you, Fire Emblem).
And specifically PAID Mii costumes.
Nia already has one
Monster Hunter costumes are also a possibility. Also could Ryu Hayabusa also be a costume?
Poo. forgot that one. I will replace Mia with elma then.
tbh I would've prefered Decidueye to Incineroar

Not this time, though.
Expected the unexpected I'd say, if you already hear the same character being preach more than enough you gotta abort the ship
Reality is often disappointing...
Not this time, though.
I took mushrooms for lesser reasons, so yeah, understandable.
I don’t think they’ll be in FP2, but I’ve actually been thinkling about a semi-clone/original moveset for them so Octoling can be the Isabelle to Inkling’s Villager (or perhaps even more original) in the next Smash game, assuming that ever happens. Maybe I’ll share it if I ever get down all the ideas.
Octoling, Dixie Kong and Impa all should be added as semi clones in a next Fighter Pass.
