I do feel like people are sleeping on Klonoa, but man what a curveball that would be. Despite surviving in some shape or form for over a decade, it doesn't exactly have the legacy most other picks would have regardless of region, nor the recency bias that a pick like Bayonetta would have.fun fact: it has been 30 pages since I last had to post from mobile. I see I have returned to good news.
AdamBel731 it does make me happy, for a variety of reasons. Lloyd fans are no more out of the running for post pass than we are, so I'm not sad for them - if any Lloyd backers got their hopes up when "Reggie was right" is in play, that's on them.
Fingers pointing to KOS-MOS is funny, because I remember all the people who saw her in the Grinch leak when she wasn't there - the irony would be grand. This wild ride has driven me to the point that I am putting all my chips in three characters:
Klonoa: personal most likely, Namco rep, fits Smash, has a pedigree and recently got a trademark update along with Tales Of that people seem to be sleeping on.
Geno: **** what one insider said about Mallowdemon. The fact that one vague statement took Geno off the table is the kind of damage control Nintendo really would have wanted back during Grinch. Likewise, **** what I say about Reggie was right, Geno's a hell of a curveball.
Finally, the big one: Duke Nukem. Cannot bet it all without betting on Duke.
If there's tons of evidence for anyone that isn't one of these three, I ain't buying it.
I'm very sorry to hear that, i hope you can find a better job and good luck with that
Oh sorry to hear that man it always sucks to lose your job. I hope things get better for ya dude.
I’m really sorry to hear that man. I’ve been there and I know it feels awful right now, but I’m sure you’ll find something even better before you know it
Banjo: Look Kazooie! It's a scary demonic knight.
Good luck! Pouring out all my positive vibes on you!
Fatmanonice
is there any out of left field characters you think might have a shot at FP5? Thoughts on a Dark Souls rep?
Aww damn. It's cool if you don't want to talk about it, but what happened? Black Friday looks like an extremely tough day to work for an employee so I respect you man.
Outside of secondary unique 3rd party characters like Zero, Tron Bonne, Chun-Li, M. Bison, ect, the only major 3rd party protagonist/mascot characters I wanted in this game were Goemon, Banjo & Kazooie, Shantae, and a Soul Calibur rep like Yoshimitsu or Nightmare. Goemon is a Mii costume, Shantae is a Spirit, Banjo & Kazooie are playable, and if we get a Soul Calibur rep than I will be pretty, PRETTY satisfied with this game. 2/4 or 3/4 how ever you put it ain't half bad.
oh **** what if it’s Yoshimitsu.... If a trend in the pass is crossover characters/series you can’t find a better Namco rep than Yoshimitsu considering he’s been a member of both Tekken and Soul Calibur since the first Tekken title and second game in the SC series. And a Heihachi costume coming in a Yoshimitsu character pass would be an even better fit than Nightmare. I’ll still lean towards Nightmare since that’s who insiders have actually heard but man Yoshimitsu would be awesome as well and totally fitting.
Don't get me wrong I would love Nightmare to get in, but Yoshimitsu would be so much better in my eyes. I would easily choose Yoshimitsu over Nightmare if I had the choice.
Not gonna lie that fat Pikachu looks adorable
Good luck with your job man!
Yeah, it's cute. Only thing I hate about it is that it's a Gigantimax form. Why the hell couldn't this just be an alternate form for Pikachu?
Exactly, the idea of Gigantimax to me is pretty meh and the worst part is that the designs don't change that much
That honestly wouldn't be a bad way to reveal Fighter 5.
I was literally going to reply to that same guy and bring up that exact company theory, only to “check new posts” to see that you’ve already said it quite well.
Imagine voting Smash Bros Ultimate for Fighting Game of the Year when it doesn't have Goku, but Jump Force does.
https://t.co/9LUAHDjNgW Does this target ad have a Grinch Leak reference? Haha

That's...a bit of a reach.
Oh no..
... not really? I could see it if the Switches had Smash Ultimate playing on them, but they're all just blank...
Fatmanonice, I have a genuine question, and it is legitimately not meant to come across rude.
wynn728
. It seems like every single character that has kind of lined up or seemed likely for Fighter #5 gets shot down. It really is like that SpongeBob gif wynn pulls up. I know it could always be a curve ball like you have been saying also, but you just made a post on why Nightmare lines up so much and I just worry that it'll be nothing again and Sabi deconfirms him.
I'm not discrediting them for different beliefs, and do you even realize how hurtful framing transgenderism as a belief in the first place, let alone your bull**** false equivalency? It's not a belief, it's just how people are and live. This isn't a difference of opinion here, this is Sabi downright said something transphobic and I don't think that should be defended in any capacity. It's not a difference of opinion and its offensive to even insinuate that this is what is happening (but I know you don't believe that people can be offensive, only the offended party can take offense, so I suspect that will fall on deaf ears). I'm not taking back that criticism because it has very unfortunately been earned.
Yoshimitsu is a title passed down through his clan to the clan leader. In each game it’s implied that it’s a ‘different’ Yoshimitsu, in that it’s a different person entirely under the moniker of Yoshimitsu - in Soul Calibur V, IIRC his in-game backstory states that that incarnation actually killed the previous Yoshimitsu and usurped the title and leadership role from them - so it makes sense that each game’s Yoshimitsu would have their own unique flair.
