At least according to the first post from anon. The second one appears to be someone piggybacking. So Kos Mos, but not reimu and hayabusa followup.
lol, my heart can't take this anymore

, but it looks like I'm the zoomiest of the zoomers here. It's honestly crazy to think about how some people here have been publicly pushing for Geno for longer than than I've been alive- mad respect to
Fatmanonice
and all of the other boomers who have kept the dream going for almost two decades now.It's been discussed on the Newcomer thread before.
You know, this gets me to thinking about something that comes across my mind every now and again - how the heck is it that zoomers even end up wanting Geno? He's really in a more extreme boat than Mega Man, like, Mega Man at least had some games that had been released not too long before his inclusion in Smash, and even then, I was fully aware that there were kids who had no idea who he was - there legitimately might be children who think he's just a Smash Bros character. I'm not discounting the idea that kids aren't able to go back and play an old game, but it seems like it'd take a lot of outside influence to get them to.My year now, sorry
Even if the supposed author of the second drunk cat leak turns out to be a fraud... this is still an anonymous 4chan text leak.
It's actually not that farfetched.
I’d say Cacomallow leak is much more solid 50/50 shot than a random 4chan text leak which probably has a 5% likelihood
Short answer: people like me, Papagenos, and Terminalmontage, crusty old farts that still have enthusiasm even decades later. People have told me that it's kind of infectious.
The internet is to blame. Super Mario RPG still has fan stuff made for it constantly to this day, people use the hell out of its OST (seriously, have you noticed how many youtube channels use SMRPG for background music?) etc. etc. Super Mario RPG also hasn't been hard to access by any means... It's been on every virtual console since virtual console existed, and the snes classic. It's only a matter of time until it's part of SNES online.
Yeah, I’m basically a 18 years old boy but I have quite way more experience with stuff released before the 2000s due to reruns on TV and curiosity for old stuff.
I came accross the Rawest Forest music video when I was 11 and my mind was completely blown away after seeing this blue wizard dude guy having a rap battle with a freaking big sword. Geno's design just resonated a lot with me and I assume it's the same for kids these days. He's the type of character you don't need to know much of in order to find him cool/want him in Smash.
Stereotypes exist for a reason, and I think it's totally fair to be surprised when people break them, rather than assume that individuality fights "the flow" and wins all the time. People are inclined to exist within their group, and that's part of being "people", too.
Yeah, we can’t post pictures as of now due to a server error.
Nothing wrong ABOUT uploading em, but it do seem like they ain't working too much lately. Every one I've seen so far is broken
Every day, it feels like.
This is one of the things that I think Geno has going in his favor, and I've mentioned it before - Geno is literally designed to be cool and appealing. It boggles the mind to think people look at him and aren't open to him being a Smash character based on appearance alone.
The Xenoblade fans already know that Rex & Pyra ain't coming because of the Mii Costumes, so what would make them appearing in Kos-Mos final smash any different from what happen last year?
This makes me worried that there really won't be a Smash reveal at the Game Awards; since aren't Nindies like a week before general Directs? I mean sure, if that's the case it's not like we'd have to wait that much longer but still
Quite a lot got me into knowing of Geno, but the Grinch Leak really got me knee-deep in here.
Ovaltine
and
Fatmanonice
really showed me how much people cared about the dude, and from then on it's been a growing hype wave for Geno. I love him for all the reasons most of you guys love him (design, game, move potential), but if I'm honest the number one reason why I want Geno in Smash is because you guys would be over the moon for him. Decades of work paid off.
That explains a lot of things, i've been trying to do it for 30 minutes so i just gave up
You'd be surprised by the amount of zoomers who have interest in boomer stuff. I like to joke that I'm a hybrid of the two, but I'm not unique in that regard, as many other folks the same age or even younger got to be exposed to older games by emulators, YouTubers and other influencers or even by their original hardware at a young age like me.
Griselda
that it's at least a little silly to categorize and stereotype people into generational groups like that, but I think it's fair to say "those darn kids these days" have more access to media made before their birth more than than ever before thanks to the internet.
Is that why? Awful timing...
WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!?! A 4chan leak was fake!? Wow... that's... I think I have to sit down for this. My mind was already blown when I found out water was wet and fire is hot. I don't think I can take any more twist like this.
Crazy, innit? Do you think you're ready to hear about how air is breathable yet, or do you want a few minutes?
I'm not the zoomiest?!My year now, sorry
Well i've been had
We haven’t had a regular direct in the latter half of the month since 2015, I think a direct would have to be this week. That and it’s not like Nintendo to really announce anything near winter holidays. So it would have to be January the earliest.
How about one of the Onslaught comics?
