They said the same about Brawl 13 years ago and their last character was Olimar. :239:
Thats why I specifically said I didnt mean it had to be hype, its just more of a definitive end than most of the other endings people keep bringing up. I do remember checking the Brawl dojo and being let down by Olimar since Sonic was the peak for me.

-Next character won't be from the 2010's (Tournament theory which has been correct so far)
-Next character won't have a fire special move (same as above plus this tournament was delayed by 18 months just to include Pyra)
Nahobino fits these perfectly considering that Doi said he is supposed to be a water god and he also said that SMT V was supposed to be a 2020 game.

Figurine theory is completely wrong though. Sakurai did not say that all of the fighters in the pass have figurines.

Let down by Olimar? That’s funny, he was my most wanted during Brawl speculation and made my whole experience.

Speaking of the Fighting Alloy Team, it's a little strange that we've never had a fighting team that had a clone of every member on it. We've got Fighting Wire Frames, which is just Zelda and Captain Falcon, Fighting Alloy Team, which is just Mario, Zelda, Captain Falcon, and Kirby, and Fighting Mii Team, which is just Mii Brawler, Mii Swordfighter, and Mii Gunner.

I miss when the Smash 4 background where the character select screen would change colors
Does it not in this game? Or is that just when custom balance is turned on?

I'm gonna be honest with you bro. I haven't picked up Smash for maybe a month, I may just be genuinely forgetting it. But the thought of it made me miss it because it was a really good aesthetic. Up there with MvC2 if you ask me.

I remember when Olimar dropped I was just happy to get a new character revealed after like two and a half months of filler content to offset the delay.

Though I also liked Olimar. Brawl just had good characters top to bottom.

Pretty sure the Fighting Polygon Team from 64 mirrors the original 12.

You know what I'm gonna miss?

All those video/articles proclaming that they know who the character is for each pass with no explanation.
Like those obvious clickbait titles like "NEXT SMASH CHARACTER LEAKED?!?", "NEXT CHARACTER IS...", and "MAJOR SMASH LEAK!!!". Caps locks extremely necessary.

Just type "final smash character" on youtube search right now, and just bask on the shamelessness. Some of them are only weeks apart by the same user, they just cycle like the same four characters on the thumbnail (Waluigi, Crash, Sora, and Doomguy. Dante and Lloyd were included until they got Mii'ed).

Someday, whenever I have a lot of free time, I want to make playlists for every pre-release fighter "leak" so that I can and just listen how off they mark they were.
It's probably going to destroy my recommendations page, though.

It's also missing the dope ass animations from 64 and the voice lines that came out of your Wiimote from Brawl.
With how long it takes to load alt colors, I'd be horrified to see the CSS have to pre-load like 200+ models.

That could only mean one thing…possible leaks, yes?
If you think we were talking leaks and not just bull****ting for the past three hours you would've seen us only talking about these leaks and not talking about the character select screen. You're isolating yourself for no reason lol

Say next Smash we somehow get all of the characters back, again, hypothetically speaking, emphasizing the "somehow" once again. Do you think we'd have to actually separate the characters by pages, kinda like how Smash 3DS had to do it just because there were too many to fit on the screen?

I wouldn't have made it this small if Smashboards stopped being so weak on filesize support but you get my gist. :nifty:

Blocked Content is going to have to finally get a real job.

Knowing how some leaks have worked in the past, the last fighter has already been leaked, but our skepticism puts us on our guard.

It could be any leak, it could have been leaked anywhere. 4Chan, Twitter, Facebook, Youtube, Deviantdard, [REDACTED], it Could be in this very site:

At that point I think they'd have the sense to just use the same model and just color them manually to represent pallet swaps.

That's still roughly 146 of them, and that's not accounting for texture changes or how many Mii Fighters there are.

Probably not. The splitting of the screen really only worked because each person had their own screen. I think the closest you could get on a home console is to have the screen scroll sideways.

EDIT: Which would still be problematic depending on how much scrolling was necessary.

I can't see it happening.

p1:"come on, get off screen one! my main's on screen three!"
p2:"I haven't selected my guy yet!"
p3:"uhh, where's Olimar? I thought he was in this game?"
p2:"oh, he's on screen two. one down, 8 in"
p3: "ok"
p1: "god damnit let me select Balan already"

I'm think they might go with a scrolling menu.
