Geno (♥♪!?): Return of the Starsend Savior

[NintendoKnight]

Dude, I love Twitch Chat rn.

For all the Smash hate that exists, there is people pushing back with hype, and then there is someone talking about chicken fingers getting stolen.

Ahhh....I love the internet!

Literally read this as EVO played a KFC ad. I love good timing.

>people in the Geno thread saying it’d be amazing if it’s not Geno


Wew

Being fine with other possibilities is different than being excited about it not being a specific character.

Also, the bird in the trailer is clearly not a Starling.

 

[MissingGlitch]

But he literally referenced Tekken and said ''***". I doubt they'd put that in a reveal trailer. Especially one that might be for a Mario character.

"That was some good ass Tekken.....but we have something better"

 

[wynn728]

So 8 of the 9 games at EVO had something to announce and we have Smash Bros closing the entire EVO thing... it would be extremely stupid for nothing to be announced for Smash Bros, but Nintendo is going to Nintendo. I can feel it.

Wew

Please forgive me for caring for more than one character -_-

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

I'm pretty sure Tekken is not something Sabi's source is particularly fond of to my knowledge, so I don't think the starling is a reference to Heihachi. That, and his VA only passed away last year, so I don't think it's him.

More importantly, Sakurai said in an interview the main reason why he didn't make the cut was that the moveset was too complicated. If the moveset itself is the main issue, then that's a pretty damning flaw.

And the guy got a Pac-cameo, a treatment that The Prince also got, so I don't think he got on the boat this time.

Dude, can we talk about how the new Guilty Gear looks EVEN MORE like a anime in motion?

God, I can't what to play it!

If something else is the startling hint then the 2nd best thing we have for genos chances would be null. So... kinda

 

[xpnc]

I don't know why anyone would think an NoA ambassador would have intimate knowledge of the first few frames of another company's anime fighting game trailer

and then went out and took a picture of a starling on his own to hint at this trailer in a discord he only leaks nintendo stuff in

 

[wynn728]

But he literally referenced Tekken and said ''***". I doubt they'd put that in a reveal trailer. Especially one that might be for a Mario character.

Or maybe it was Snake saying Heihachi is in Smash Bros.

Not really. That's a very "Your either with us or against us" mentality. Plus, as I just pointed out, it's clearly not a Starling.

was there anything related to the Starling at evo?

 

[Oaterinos]

Buckle up gamers!!! Even if nothing happens, this should be a sick top 8!

Thanks for putting words in my mouth I didn’t say that at all. I’m saying that if starling specifically is for something else than that’d be one less argument for Geno which wouldn’t be great. And so being psyched for that seems silly.

And did I ever say that it "would be amazing if it were not Geno"? You did say people were saying that after all.

 

[7NATOR]

Wait, Did Mortal Kombat have an announcement?

Agreed and it looks fluid as all hell! Haven't played guilty gear since ps2 days.

Hi Geno thread, just a random lurker.

Does anyone have a link to the Evo grand finals stream?

It was the Nightwolf trailer released early

 

[Oaterinos]

Idk about you guys but that cut away to the invitational thing gave me a heart attack

 

[ForsakenM]

Wait...

WAS THAT AN ADVERTISEMENT FOR A MORE COMPETITIVELY-ACCEPTED NINTENDO-SPONSORED TOURNAMENT IN AUGUST?

 

[Datboigeno]

Some other people did and I was referring to those people on my comment which you replied to

Alright Geno gang it's almost time. Fingers crossed for Geno but I won't exactly count on it happening. Though let's hope~!

It's been an excellent ride with you all and I genuinely do not remember the last time I've bonded so much with a community before I've became apart of the Geno fanbase and a frequenter of this thread. I love you all like family we all have a common bond of our love for Geno so let's hope everyone! Fingers crossed.

 

[Fatmanonice]

Earlier this week it did. Warner Bros insisted on releasing the trailer for Nightwolf ahead of EVO. Even Ed Boon was pissed about it.

 

[owjies]

Deep breaths everyone. If it’s Raiden, spirits don’t disconfirm. If it’s Heihachi, Geno will be the only Mii Costume upgrade left. (Geno’s Mii Costume is missing)

 

[slopdop]

Congrats on 1200 posts everyone!
Good luck tonight! If not tonight I'll still be fighting and hoping for Geno till the end!
Also shoutouts to you guys keeping this Geno train moving for so long, yall the best!

it'll be Geno though so we don't have to worry

 

[RageCage271]

I'm wearing my SMRPG shirt from AGDQ/the yetee. My body is ready!!

 

[Oaterinos]

Shoutouts to the ~250 people watching the thread, hope you guys are well

 

[link2702]

My heart damn near skipped a beat at the switch snap sound thinking that was the moment of a reveal.

I was pleasantly surprised though to see a more competitive focused Nintendo sponsored tournament ad.

 

[EarlTamm]

I only saw one post about this sort of thing and it was about finding the idea of a character amazing rather than putting down Geno in any way. I saw no one putting down Geno here.

 

[Glitch-EGamer]

May Geno shine on us tonight, Genobros and Genogals! Let's hope for the best.

 

[TooManyToastahs]

If Geno does get announced, what will you guys do after the initial reveal?

Personally, I would have gotten my top 2 picks (Banjo+Kazooie and Geno), so uh, I wouldn’t know what else to do, or what other characters I would want to support

Nice! I'm wearing my hand made Geno beanie I made for last Halloween. Fingers crossed!

 

[DaxMasterix]

*Deep Voice* This is the moment.. that defines a generation

 

[3DSNinja]

let's hope for the best!

 

[TBone06]

I’m 28 years old and I’ve never watched a gaming tournament.. I can’t believe y’all got me doing this. I don’t even expect anything, but I don’t want to miss out on the off chance something does. That’s community as this guy said I guess.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

If we're getting an announcement I feel it happening at the end. I just do.
