Not much. The Discord with Sabi's source is split on whether or not Hero will actually come before EVO. A lot of us are doubting this coming week because of Fire Emblem next Friday but Nintendo almost never does major presentations the last week of the month outside of things like Pokemon Day so it's hard to say.
Wait, do you mean EVO itself or the cutoff date for new updates? Because I though we had already passed the cutoff.
I'll post so you can share. wonk
That logic does make sense. Especially since Banjo seems to be a bit far along in his development cycle, only to a certain degree though.
I never thought about this, but it does make a lot of sense now that I've seen it. If this happens, then it would definitely have to be during some type of direct and not another Joker-like video seeing as they'd cover two characters instead of one plus (maybe) another mode. With how far along Hero and Banjo are, it gets me wondering if they've already started working on Fighter #4, which I think they probably already have.
They did mention they were ahead of schedule in their work so... Maybe? If I remember correctly.
That’s a very valid point. We had both Hero and Banjo announced at the same time. Sm4sh announced multiple DLC fighters. It is not out of the realm of possibilities especially since we are getting close to February’s cut off. Hmmmm, very interesting!
I still think he's not making it this time. His latest voice actor died, and he showed up in Pac-Man's taunt, too...And I doubt The Prince is playable too, because why would Namco foreshadow characters via a taunt, of all things?
Hmm, that makes sense.
Why wouldn't Square allow several characters as DLC? It's literally free money for them.
I'm honestly only expecting the costume. I don't think the music copyright notices mean anything.
Because they're Square, rofl.
I mean, it’s still possible that we get the mii costume on top of a few SMRPG tracks.
I maintain that the only thing that gets in Geno's way is Square not feeling like having him used. Even Einhander got to do more in their games, for crying out loud.
Honestly, I doubt we'll get that far in Square's lineup before they either stop supporting Smash, or the series sees major cuts. Square Enix just has too many IPs, much like Capcom, for a great deal of them to make it in. It's why I think we'll honestly be a bit lucky to get Geno at all, let alone retain him, Cloud, and Hero for future entries.
I say if there's any company out there that would allow two of their characters as DLC it would be Square. Square loves their money and Cloud being DLC last game must've made them boat loads of money so I wouldn't put it past them to want more characters as DLC so if Nintendo approached them about wanting Geno and a Dragon Quest rep in Smash I doubt they'd say no.
No, I think when it comes to the Fighters Pass they're just going to get only one character for each third party is include. I don't think we'll get another Sega, Microsoft or Square Enix character as the last two Fighters.
Geno isn't likely for DLCs in this round of Smash 5 since he isn't from an unused franchise.
A few music tracks? Just thrown in there for free? From Square? After Yoko Shimomura, who is on the team, apparently couldn't put them in the base game?
DUDE. CALM. DOWN. I wasn't voting for Goku being in Smash or anything! I was saying that Geno Beam looks similar to Final Flash.What the heck? People who are campaigning for Goku or a DBZ character ought to campaign for Geno instead. We have a look-alike in terms of Erdrick particularly (or as close as we'll get), so let's get the abilities in there through our star boy.
Um, that is not at all what she was saying. Like, at all. She's not even angry or anything in that post. Why do you think she's upset or something?
I didn't even know you could do this... that's awesome.
Who is "you know who"? The plant, Corrin or Bayonetta?
Why do people keep saying that? They said something not seen in Smash before. That doesn't specifically mean a new franchise. It could just as easily mean a mechanic that isn't already implemented massively. Hero with JRPG commands, Joker with Arsene, Banjo with gold feathers, etc. I feel like that's the far more likely explanation because it sounds dumb to not implement new mechanics just to pay for more same-style boring characters. I know that's not entirely what you meant by that but still. It's annoying.
To clarify, I say that is because we acknowlede Geno as part of Mario franchise and history, so he would not be a character with brand new background since we would not deny his origin from Mario games.
Uh, yeah, as EarlTamm already stated, I wasn't angry or anything, my dude. I was joking around.
Since Geno and Mallow are often associated in pairs, let me go ahead and give my take on them. It's probably gonna be like, "Wait, what are you talking about?" but bear with me here.
Geno is Order with Mallow and Valentina. Booster and all the Smithy gang are chaos.
gonna second this. Geno is the most lawful good character the mario universe has outside of maybe the star sprites, that being said the two sides are shown off as exaggerated extremes so I don't really see any of the protagonists on either.
I have to say that it's interesting to see how straight and lawful people see Geno, and while I understand that take, I'm such a huge fan of putting twists on characters. I guess I'm an odd one out here, haha.
