Well, I imagine a moveset like that would be quite a bit more difficult than just "guy with a sword doing the sword thing from Melee."

I’d still take Ganondorf using a tech demo sword over Ganondorf running like a tired old man whilst inexplicably being able to fight like a Power Ranger character.
Hey N3ON.
This has no relevance to what I said about Smash Remix. Smash 64 is a very slow game compared to Melee. Every character is slower than their Melee counterpart. It's basically just a proportionate speed change. Hell, speed aside, Ganondorf has mostly the same playstyle throughout each Smash. I don't know where you got the idea he doesn't stop fighting like a Power Ranger. The sword only furthered that, since those are all very Power Rangery-style moves. Like, heavy sword fighters are a big note, and a sword is an active thing in almost every single season. The Trident he has in his second life(when Ganondorf no longer exists, anyway) has him be nothing like a Power Ranger. On the other hand, Phantom Ganon's Trident is actually used in a Power Rangery weapon as is. But that's to be expected when Power Rangers covers multiple fighting styles canonically, due to being a massive long runner(over 20 seasons).
Nah I don't think they care about the game balance any more. This is probably the smash we'll see for the next 7 years, just with a few more multi-hit fixes (which will still not work half the time).
I doubt he'll get a projectile, though I could see his usual Electro Ball. DMV? Doubt it. If it's not easy to reflect, it's not DMV. I get why it wasn't in yet. By the time Ganondorf was in, he already was a regular clone so no time for that. By Brawl, he stopped using it entirely, and it doesn't even show up in TP. Later on, everybody else uses it, including basic guys like a Blue Stalfos. It's loosely tied to Ganon-related characters.
There's always a first time.
Though to be fair, Byleth also has the courtesy of their game being delayed. Maybe base would've worked out otherwise if their game wasn't delayed, though. That or it's possible that the delay is the only thing that got them a slot, being in the right place and right time. On the other hand, it's still the latest game, so it would've worked as a character to suggest anyway(alternatively, a FEH character might worked timing-wise).
I mean, who knows but Sakurai at this point? People have been trying to predict the DLC from jump and he outmaneuvers everyone. He could make or break all the fan rules and shatter all expectations,
Watch it be Kratos.
Whenever I see people use this argument it feels to me like they're basically saying "I don't have an argument"
Yeah that has been popular lately I feel, cause you'd see people argue their favourites are the most likely and people who disagreed gave counterarguments to the reasons given and would be met with "THAT'S A FAN RULE DOESN'T COUNT!" Which is already odd when we've had Sakurai agree with fan rules which you'd think would make it a legit rule in that case, but by also arguing that their subjective thoughts on what made a character likely were things Sakurai 100% agreed with
Still a lot better than moving the goal posts because people keep contradicting themselves, that’s for sure.
If you are specifically talking about the “AT characters can/can’t be upgraded to playable via DLC” argument, Sakurai hasn’t said anything about that one way or another.
On the topic of Dread, I do think it makes sense to give Metroid one last big push in a Nintendo Direct before it comes out.
Hello, I'd like to wager uhhhhhhhhhhhh one dollarydoo on October 2023.
To be fair, Dread already has a crazy amount of marketing from Nintendo and proportionate levels of hype.
I have a feeling this is a Resetera burn on their take on the last picture sakurai posted
I'd agree but we said the exact same thing about Warioware two weeks ago and that one didn't pan out.
That's what happened with COVID changing things up for schedule: the updates came out like intended, but the characters didn't. Basically, we got 3 updates up in the timeframe where Pass 2 was about to wrap up:
calling them secondary is a huge stretch.
People are fricken weird.
first please can we not type in purpple or yellow?Here’s where I disagree:
The reasoning you’re using against Waluigi is a thing people used against Steve just because they didn’t understand the people who loved him since, while he’s treated as his own character in some official media (not much unfortunately, mostly few news things, few tweets, and some official Instagram art as well as some info that may not be set in stone i.e. that one thing about Steve and Alex in a Lego Club magazine) and in plenty of fan media, is usually the default skin and mascot alongside Alex with not much personality beyond actions/body movements. I don’t think the sales matter in this case.
The meme thing could also be said of Sans due to his immense meme popularity where some people only know him or first heard of him from the memes before playing Undertale if they did, seeing this funny skeleton man beat up a kid to funny rock n’ roll music.
I’m not arguing the sales or how beloved the games are or whatever, I’m talking about the characters themselves, and I personally think it’s silly to pretend Waluigi has no popularity and that the memes are purely jokes when, while yes memes can be used to dunk on/hate on things for laughs, are also usually used to make funny stuff for things people (including the meme creator) like/derive funny from popular things/characters, making the fans of those things/characters get good laughs and maybe make more funny stuff with their favorite things/characters…and the funny stuff continues.
Also, if memes are derived from hate, they usually don’t last long because few people beyond trolls and very rude people (a minority) care about them, so if anything is getting longterm funny memes that don’t even seem hateful at all then it should be pretty clear people like them or at the very least the funny aspect about them (likely loving or eventually loving the character themself even if just for funny stuff anyway), especially if those memes are widely loved as is the case with Waluigi. Pretty much part of whatVerde Coeden Scalesworth said about memes/popular characters.
And I get there are reasons to believe Waluigi may not get in. I just focused on the meme thing because that’s the only thing I saw you using against Waluigi and I didn’t understand it at all.
(edit: also if we’re arguing sales we could technically use the Mario spinoffs since Waluigi is a loved playable character in those)
Yea I'm gonna need one more juicy Metroid trailer before release. Much to the dismay of people who want to go in blind but watch the trailers anyways.
I am okay with these trailers because I am certain it means that there's going to be even juicier plot details they keep a secret.
