This is a bit of a strange hope, but I would love to see what sort of picture taking shenanigans Sakurai did while developing Geno. He has been sharing stuff like that daily now and they are great.
There was a problem fetching the tweet

Ultimate is in fact his only and last chance, if you ask damn near anybody.
I am pretty sure this has been said before by several Smash fan-bases in past games that get their character eventually. Ultimate is certainly his best shot, that's for sure.

With the whole story mode being about spirits possesing fighters, i feel like not adding Geno this time around will be a huge missed opportunity

Sakurai's impending retirement is far less removed from Ultimate than any prior installment. It's also the "all-inclusive" nature of the game this time around that leads me to believe it's the best chance for most characters who have been long-requested. Hard to imagine niche picks finding their limelight under any other circumstance, when there's slim chance another Smash game could come close to this amount of fan-service.

But yeah, you're right. I remember thinking Brawl would be K. Rool's last shot at the time, considering his lacking presence in his series.

I don't really think Geno's doomed even if he doesn't get into Ultimate. I remember back when people thought Brawl would be the last Smash game, period. And I'm pretty sure that Sakurai has already said something to the extent of, 'If there is demand for Smash, I'll continue to make it'.

100%, though I do imagine trying to follow up Ultimate will be the challenge of a lifetime. I think the next Smash would need to shake things up quite a bit just to not be overshadowed by its predecessor.

Also, I hope Sakurai works on something else after Ultimate before he works on another Smash. Man has been working on the series nonstop since the development of Smash 4. Would love to see him work on some other IP for a bit.

I think if Geno doesn't get into Ultimate it will be game over for the star doll:


I felt like this game was also K. Rool and Banjo & Kazooie's last chance as well and they were very fortunate to get in. The reason I say this is because lot of the fans of these characters is people who grew up in the 90s and a lot of these people are getting older and are moving on with their lives. The Geno fanbase will probably take a huge blow that won't ever recover if he doesn't make it into Ultimate because of this reason. Let's pray to the stars on Star Road that Geno was chosen.

I Honestly cannot choose a 3rd track.. but I guess I'd go for Nimbus Land (Let's do the Fooka-Fooka)..
I really want him to bring at least 8 tracks, it isn't that much, right? I hope Shimomura owns the music (And not Square Enix).
Oh Oh! And I'd LOVE if Geno ends up coming with Fight Against Culex so we can get an additional FF track.
I know its not happening but imagine fighting in smash to the seaside town theme. Probably not a good fighting track, but I love it nonetheless.

Happy New Year, GenoBros!! I too believe this will be the year of Geno. I celebrated New Years by finally getting a Nintendo Switch that I haven't been able to afford until now, and a copy of Ultimate. I'm now finally prepared for Geno's fated arrival :)

I've also had re-occuring dreams of Geno being playable. The first being a dream of him getting revealed with DoomGuy, with the oddly specific detail of DoomGuy being revealed with his outfit from the original Doom, but having his Doom Eternal armor as his alt, just like Cloud and his Advent Children alt. In the second dream, I saw gameplay of Geno battling Mario and 2 other characters I don't remember, but I remember Geno being a speedy character that was slightly shorter than Mario, but he looked amazing, with added detail in his cape and hat to make it look more like fabric, notably not reusing the textures from the mii costume. Were these simply dreams or visions of the future? Hopefully we'll find out soon...

Oh, if we're talking about potential alternate costumes, I think they could make some of his alts based off of the official artwork for Geno's different capes! The happy cape in particular is one of my favorites, the texture is so... mesmerizing.

If they make that 4th one an alt I will definitely use that one when I play Geno.

I feel like the biggest color missing with the official art of his capes is a clearly defined green, given most of the Fuzzy gear for the rest of the crew is more yellow, but honestly Fire Cape could be more yellow-orange to emphasize the difference

The Sailor Cape's palette would probably make an explicit Mallow referencing design a little redundant color wise but that'd be a bit of a loss
Perhaps a slate grey Smithy palette design could work as #8?

and yes it's been said many times already but Happy Cape aesthetic is a real mood

I think this might be Geno’s last shot at a Smash game. In the next decade we will get a new Smash game but so many other characters new and old will get into this game and will be priority over other characters. So, I think that this will be when Geno gets in. And I do think everyone is here will happen again. Nintendo will want to shell out more money because this is the highest selling fighting game of all time and they want to capitalize on this franchise for as long as they can. I think everyone will be back next time around.

Nintendo will want to shell out more money because this is the highest selling fighting game of all time and they want to capitalize on this franchise for as long as they can. I think everyone will be back next time around.
With all this talk of Geno's chances, I just want to throw my two cents into the ring:

Firstly, while I agree that Ultimate doesn't have to be Geno's "last" chance, I would argue that it's still his best one. Why? Because Sakurai himself has expressed doubt that he would be able to duplicate such an incredibly full roster in the future due to licensing and hardware limitations (not to mention his own health). Granted, he could be mistaken and Nintendo might be willing to foot the budget for an even larger roster, however, such an assumption is a big fat IF, and if my economics classes in school taught me anything, it's that "money now is better than money later". That is, Smash bros now is better than the idea of a Smash bros later because it already exists. We may never again get the chance to see Banjo, Geno and Cloud in the same game. Nuff said.

Secondly, Ultimate's finalized roster (post DLC) will tell us volumes as to Sakurai's actual priorities. If we get everything from Terry to Frogger and STILL don't get Geno, I'm going to have an EXTREMELY hard time being convinced that Sakurai gives a **** about him. Don't get me wrong, it's not to say that Sakurai doesn't "like" him, but it will say pretty strongly that a niche fan pick is NOT as important to him as Main Hero/Main Villain characters of a given franchise. Or then again, there could be more issues at play, such as SE being a bunch stingy morons with the licensing, etc. Even if Sakurai were to retire and someone else take over, I'm not sure if that would improve Geno's chances at all since roster spots would be held at such a premium that they would only focus on mainstream characters. And before anyone starts doubting the "premium" status of future roster spots, don't even tell me that we could pull another "everyone is here" scenario, add 10 or so more characters on top of the already 80+DLC roster and just play the "whatevs" game with it unless they completely rip out Smash ultimate's engine and just add more characters/stages (though doing so would make me question why it's not just a port).

Bottom line: It's now or never as far as I'm concerned. None of us are getting any younger, the future of the franchise is up in the air, and if we're going to round up the last of the major fan pick characters, I don't see any reason why to leave Geno out now unless the powers that be just don't deem him worthy.

Your opinion of Geno's chances are a roller coaster, friend.

... But I do agree with the general consensus that Ultimate is his last chance. I think it's easy for guys around my age (which this thread is maybe unsurprisingly made up of) to have our childhood games so fresh in our minds, for us to hold them in such high regard, for us to go back and replay them so often... and forget just how old they are.

One of the things that sticks with me about just how much time has passed is a comment I read before Ultimate came out regarding Isaac - if he were put into Ultimate as a playable character, he would be older at the time of inclusion (2001-2018) than Ice Climbers were when they were included in Melee (1985-2001). Granted, it isn't by much, and if we went by time since last appearance it wouldn't be true, but the point stands. Now, don't get me wrong, I don't think this is a real barrier for entry, as Hero essentially waited 33 years, Pac-Man for 24 and Banjo for 21, but as a detractor would be quick to point out, Geno isn't a company mascot or an icon of gaming, or the main character of a Mario 64 knockoff (the spiciest take I'll dispense today, most likely), he's just a side character that Nintendo doesn't own.

Really, though? None of that matters. It's all just a weak attempt at trying to create some logic to justify what are essentially total random inclusions. Maybe one day when Sakurai finally calls it quits we'll know exactly how characters were chosen, but as it stands, anyone's chances are as good as anyone else, barring obvious BS picks like Batman or Goku.

In general, I think looking to the future of Smash is ill advised if your character isn't playable yet. We have no idea what the future is going to look like for a game that, at this point, has got to be the most tangled legal spaghetti to ever exist. This is the sort of discussion I got into with a friend once - we've got a game where Solid Snake and Cloud Strife are together on the box (of the special edition, at least) - how long does Nintendo get to keep the rights to market such a thing? Is it even feasible at this point to do the easiest possible thing and port it for all eternity with a few extra characters/new rounds of DLC every time? To put the cherry on top of that, this is a cooperation of businesses, and we never know when relations could sour, or someone could just stop existing. Sure, it's unlikely for Square to just go bankrupt in between now and the time frame for the next Smash, but what about someone like SNK? There's so many "if"s involved in Smash's future at this point that it's really just best to live in the now and demand what you want while the Switch is relevant, since with enough fan demand, they could produce DLC for this game for the rest of the Switch's life (and if the demand is high enough, not doing so is just leaving money on the table). We have to be noisy for Geno now and we can't just roll over and die like we've been conditioned to do thanks to 4 games of no/limited DLC.

Our boy got a mii costume with a goddamn splash screen and it's not back yet despite K. Rool and Isabelle being playable characters. He's coming, hold onto those dreams. Lloydbros too, we're all gonna make it.

Those sure are all words, but:

His costume hasn't returned and would have made sense to have returned with Hero.
He's one of the longest-running fan requests. The developers are not ignorant to this.
There is still DLC left to release, and to that end Sakurai is on record saying: "If the character is fun to play is more important than if the character is new or old or if the character is recognizable by everyone."

Now is not the time to give up hope.

Ultimate is a game that’s only happening once. I’m sure there will be more Smash games, but I don’t think they’ll be like this one. Now is the time to get those old fan requests in.

Also to emphasize how old we all are, as of yesterday Homestar Runner has been around for 20 years. Old SNES games like SMRPG need things like references, rereleases, and remasters so they can be more than old stories told around fires by codgers like us.

If Mallow were made a playable fighter, how exactly would he fight? We have a pretty extensive baseline for Geno, but I’m curious what kind of fighter Mallow would be
I've actually been working on a Mallow moveset. My thought was, since he's pretty weak physically and pretty strong magically, his moveset would have a strong focus on using his special moves to help with his otherwise sub-par normals. My favorite idea from the unfinished moveset I'm working on is using "Psychopath" as his Down B, and if he hits an opponent with it they take more hitstun for a short time, and since his normals before weren't very good at comboing, it syngerizes well with itself.

Also weather stuff definitely has to be in his moveset.

I know it’s ridiculous, but what if they did a Mallow/Geno in one character. Obviously I do not think or consider this happening, however it could be interesting.

I don't think it could really work, mostly because it wouldn't fit. SMRPG has your entire team out at once, but they take turns attacking... It couldn't really be a down+b swap move like PT or melee Zelda, but having two characters with more than enough potential for an entire moveset, and cramming them together into one moveset where one does some moves and the other does the rest, it would just feel cluttered. Plus they have very opposite stats, which would just kinda be a cluster**** at best.

Best case scenario IMO is Mallow appearing in Geno's final smash/taunts.

I don't think I even fully know what Homestar runner is about. All I knew about it was it had some kid with a blue helicopter hat, and some Luchador Wrestler character. I tried to watch I think like....one episode years ago when it was still pretty new, and just didn't care about it at all, seemed boring to me tbh.

Don't get me started on listing how old **** is, I will make us all feel like we belong in a retirement home. Just remember the Wii is going on 14 years old now and draw your own conclusions for what that means for the Super Nintendo and how long it's been since Nintendo absolutely dominated the video game sphere. Super Mario Bros. 3, the absolute pinnacle of 2D Mario is just as old as I am, and I'm sad to report that I am not the absolute pinnacle of anything.

A fun anecdote, though, thinking about getting games into the hands of the newer generation, is the fact that I let a kid from my Smash scene borrow my PSP so he could play Mother 3. I have a lot of games on it, and even though he said he probably wouldn't play Mario RPG even if Geno got into Smash, he told me that he hasn't played Mother 3 because he got distracted by Mario RPG. I can't complain! My heart warms whenever someone half my age tells me that modern games don't hit like the old ones, because it justifies the chip on my shoulder for the past decade - the old stuff really is better, save for the rare gem.

I get cynical and say stuff like "kids are gonna think Cloud's the main character of Final Fantasy" or "I bet they think Mega Man is just a Smash Bros character" but really, it's the opposite and they actually do get interested in it and look it up. We live in a really special time that I didn't imagine being possible when I was growing up, where parents and their children, or just multiple generations of strangers can enjoy the same types of things and live in the same sort of culture. None of that awkward disconnect of slang and not knowing what's "cool" like it was back in the 90s and 2000s.

Geno'll be more than a side character from a 24 year old RPG to them when he becomes playable. I think most will agree that he's the most deserving character from the game to be immortalized in the Smash pantheon for all the reasons that we've spent the better part of 2158 pages discussing - probably moreso than Mario, but that's just like, my opinion, man.

Part of the magic of Smash has always been its power to introduce people to new games. I don’t know if I’d have checked out Zelda, Metroid, Star Fox, F-Zero, or (eventually) Earthbound if I hadn’t seen the various characters in Smash 64. And somehow that effect still happens, I’ve got 3 SNK fighting games on my Switch now thanks to a certain mr Bogard. When a character is in Smash it’s like they’re elevated to a new level. There’s all this fanart of Terry and Banjo and ROB and Wolf and Lucas and Roy and all these characters that probably wouldn’t get it otherwise, but they’re in Smash, and because of that they’ll always be remembered because they’ll always be “Character #X in Smash Bros”, and I think that’s just really cool.

And this is why it's high time to truly immortalize Geno.

Long post.
ON the topic of kids and adults today being able to enjoy the same type of things, that actually has been going on for awhile now, not with video games, but other entertainment mediums, most notably music.

Rock music from around the 70s(even 60s), was/is still enjoyable to younger kids of today, as well as those of us from the 90s. Or 80s. One of the reasons why my sister and me always got along so well with our mother, her generations music was still very much great to us, and she also enjoyed a lot of the music that came out in the 90s and early 2000s. Compare that to our grandparents and nothing they liked (except Elvis, but i mean...he was the King for a reason) we or our mother really liked.

Man, imagine "I never would have checked out any of the Mario RPG games if it weren't for Geno in Smash, I always thought Mario was just 'jump on ****' and figured an RPG like that would be boring!"

Melee convinced me to run through Earthbound on an emulator (After long debating the purchase of a highly priced SNES cartridge) and to this day it makes my top three video games of all time.

Power of Smash baby, breathes life into decade old games.

NEWS FLASH, PEOPLE!

Apparently, we've got some evidence pointing towards a direct next week. Even more interesting is evidence suggesting that fighter #5 is going to be from Shin Megami Tensei 5. Check this out:

https://www.eventhubs.com/news/2020...ndles-and-atlus-teasing-shin-megami-tensei-5/

Some think fighter 5 could be from Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE. Holy mother of feck, could you imagine if another fire emblem character TECHNICALLY gets in as a mirage?

EDIT: Disregard this post. I committed an act of heresy for not using the G word at least once and entertained the idea of having new information without a "credible leaker" proposing it. (Backs away slowly)

NEWS FLASH, PEOPLE!

Apparently, we've got some evidence pointing towards a direct next week. Even more interesting is evidence suggesting that fighter #5 is going to be from Shin Megami Tensei 5. Check this out:

Some think fighter 5 could be from Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE. Holy mother of feck, could you imagine if another fire emblem character TECHNICALLY gets in as a mirage?
If that means my boy Itsuki gets in smash, Im all for it

Man I love Smash fans sometimes

*Overwatch on Switch*
”Is Tracer in Smash?!?”
*Potential SMTV info*
”Is there another Altus character in Smash?”

Meanwhile Banjo & Kazooie were dlc characters who haven’t been in a video game in years. I mean I won’t deny the possibility but I just think it’s funny that this happens every time a new game gets Switch info

Smash 4 left us battered and abused.

It was a rough relationship.

I know. This is just an article we have here talking about an Atlus series called Shin Megami Tensei 5, not Shin Megami Tensei 5 having a character in Smash. Those are two different things. I mean, just because a news site says something about a game like that doesn't mean a character from that game will be in Smash Bros. Ultimate; let alone talking about a Smash update separately in the same article, right?
