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

[TheCJBrine]

I'm pretty sure he meant in Smash. If modern popularity/legacy was literally everything we would have had Crash in base, Doomguy at some point, maybe Dante in Brawl, Fortnite in base, Minecraft in 4/Ultimate, or so many more.

I think what Polarthief means is that as a third party you can't expect to get into Smash off of being a big name alone- some significance to Nintendo is pretty much required. League has nothing to do with Nintendo, same as PUBG or Warcraft. Minecraft and Fortnite both have ports but again, that doesn't guarantee an inclusion.

yeah that’s true, I don’t think popularity alone is enough but it certainly helps show success plus at least Minecraft and admittedly maybe Fortnite have other factors going for them.

I’d say Minecraft is significant to Nintendo though; Nintendo loves it and it has the Mario mashup pack as well as a creeper 3DS, with Miyamoto or someone wondering why they didn’t make it first. On their Play Nintendo website, there was a question-thing with Steve & Alex as an answer, too, “who would you want to go on a field-trip with?”. They share ads for the upcoming Dungeons game on their media accounts, too (as well as general Minecraft ads), and Minecraft partly inspired BotW. Tbh though I’m not really sure Nintendo significance is actually required due to Sakurai seeing it as a courtesy, plus Joker (there’s only 2 or 3 Persona games on Nintendo systems, and it seems it’s treated differently from SMT).

But, that’s neither here nor there, I suppose, as yeah no character is guaranteed an inclusion even if Nintendo likes their game except an ARMS character atm but that’s their own game.

I’d be surprised if LoL happens though I suppose it makes sense if they want e-Sports tips or something idk, I guess it would be cool though I’d be as indifferent to it as some are about Minecraft (funnily enough LoL was first announced only months before Minecraft’s first public release).

Sorry I missed your post; yes, I did mean that for Smash.

some significance to Nintendo is pretty much required.

I wasn't necessarily saying that, but it does help. My point was just you're not guaranteed an invite for being big.

But, that’s neither here nor there, I suppose, as yeah no character is guaranteed an inclusion even if Nintendo likes their game

Except Geno, cuz he's gonna be in.

 

[Powerman293]

If they put a League character in but don't put a game on the Switch afterwards, I would lowkey be pissed. At least with Joker, Shin Megami Tensei games came to Nintendo consoles. Final Fantasy games were on Nintendo consoles previously when Cloud was added.

It'd be unprecedented if a character got added but the company they came put NOTHING on Nintendo consoles previously. Not other games in a big series, or the main franchise the spin off came from, or other series. Just nothing.

 

[Sigran101]

I think that the LoL character leak is fake (although I wouldn't be surprised if we end up getting some representation). It's way to easy to guess pretty much everything except for the LoL character itself. I know that I've been thinking that we'd be getting a Trials of Mana spirit event way back since February (I created a prediction list where I may have put in on there; or I may have forgot about it), and that Hollow Knight is a likely Mii costume since Sans got revealed. Regardless here are some more decently like 3rd party spirit events for the future: Guilty Gear/Blazblue, Trails of Cold Steel, Ace Attorney, Bravely Default 2, Disgaea, Undertale, Ys, Hollow Knight Silksong, Tales of, and the list goes on. Some of these may end up as characters instead, but I believe that by the time Ultimate is over, around 70% of these will be spirits at the very least.

Also if we are getting a "Western" character. I'm changing my prediction from Crash Bandicoot to Rayman, I feel as though Rayman has gotten a ton of evidence pushing for him in the last week or so (and I am a bit biased considering I voted for him in Smash 4). I feel as though Crash hasn't gotten a ton of backing other then some vague insider ramblings which tend to circle around every non deconfirmed "popular character". Besides, Nintendo's relationship with Ubisoft is extremely good for a western dev and definitely better then Activision Blizzard.

So here are my predictions for the next Fighter's Pass currently:

6. Either Springman or Min-Min: I don't feel like I need to explain this at all.

7. Rayman: Again, if I have to pick 1 more "western" character currently, in terms of evidence it would have to be Rayman. I think he fits nicely in as a E3 reveal too, even if he's not big in Japan. He has a huge history with Nintendo, and is decently iconic outside of Japan, while having some pretty strong fan-demand. I think Ubisoft has even stated that they want Rayman in Smash. Now there's solid evidence that Ubisoft is trying to remove references of "they hope that Rayman is in FP2". I still think it's weird that both Assassin's Creed and Rabbids got a Mii Costume, while Rayman who was in Smash as a trophy since Smash 4 has yet to even get a simple Mii Costume.

8. Geno: Again, tons of evidence supporting him currently, even if I don't believe most of it. That said, I don't discount the evidence because of that. I give him up till FP 8 to really show up, but then my confidence in him drops of a cliff (but even then he's still technically possible).

9. Rex and Pyra: Again, they make a ton of sense as they missed the deadline like the ARMS rep. Monolith-soft is also becoming more and more important to Nintendo with Xenoblade being a pretty successful series, not to mention their supportive role in many of Nintendo's BIG hitters like Zelda, Splatoon, and Animal Crossing.

10. Namco Rep: I still feel fairly confident in either a Tales or Tekken rep showing up. I would be shocked if FP 2 contained 0 Namco reps. They're the developers, they should at least get something.

11. Insert character here: It's hard to predict anything for 11. I think they'll be controversial, but I cannot say anything else.

I think this prediction is more or less spot on. I completely agree on all 5 choices.

League isn't on consoles full stop, I believe (although a little research shows that it's coming to consoles in the future). Dropping a LoL character on us with no console releases of the game at all when they're added is mental, in my opinion. Even other "PC Icons" like Gordon Freeman, Doomguy, The Heavy, anybody from CS:GO (although that's never getting in, lol) or Diablo have console ports of their games. That may be the reason why I can't look at it and think it's real. Even characters like Joker, Cloud, Snake and (to a much smaller extent) Terry have some Nintendo history as either ports of their games or franchise history like SMT.

 

[MattX20]

A thought occurred to me. You know how the Jim Henson Company made Star Fox puppets for Nintendo regarding Star Fox Zero's promotion? Well, how well do you think they would do if they were commissioned to do Geno for a promo?

 

[Fatmanonice]

But i have heard some japanese companies are having issues with his presentations, this affect the direct? It could be delayed?

From what I understand it's not the presentations but consultation about content in the packs. This is another reason why I think this heavily suggests that at least one of the packs is heavily focused on a western company because a language barrier probably would throw a wrench in things more than anything else. As for Sakurai's presentations, they're probably going to cut costs even more given the circumstances. It's funny to think about but maybe Sakurai will even do a presentation in his living room.

I know Sakurai has talked about his house in a Famitsu article before, but I would just love a house tour for the next Sakurai Presents video. Just entirely unrelated to Smash.

The post i read about the topic is here https://www.express.co.uk/entertain...shed-back-fears/amp?__twitter_impression=true What you think?

 

[Enigma735]

This is something he and many other have given a similar take on. Each SE “game” represented has 2 songs. Cloud has 2. Hero has 8 but they circumvent this by giving us 2 from each of the 4 DQ games represented by Hero. So it is logical that Geno would also only get 2 SMRPG songs.

Nintendo may decide to pad this number out by adding some more songs from other mario RPGs such as Mario and Luigi and Paper Mario.

I know I am responding very late to this, but I think if Geno does get included, I don't think he will come with just two SMRPG tracks.

The reason why FF and DQ have very few tracks is because their composer's are notoriously hard to work with. Yoko Shimomura seems to be easy to work with. A lot of songs she has made are in Smash and she has even remixed quite a few tracks too. I think Geno will have better treatment with music then FF and DQ personally.

I made some sprites of our boy in the style of superstar saga. I'm not a professional so if they look weird in any way, that's why. OK goodnight.

This is June, Geno joins the battle, preview mode. Character #77.

The diagonal and sideways sprites look a little too short compared to the other ones. Also, his head looks a bit too plain on the sideways sprites.
A little rough around the edges, but not bad for a first attempt.

 

[PatPrime]

There's a nice Youtube channel that doesn't get much attention and makes WONDERFUL arrangements that I want to share. In fact, this person made two Mario RPG arrangements. Take a listen.

 

[Loliko YnT]

I... Don't understand why people dislike Dream Team.
Yeah , they did upgrade the graphics and it's different but... I think people are often over-exagerating the game's flaws. For me , the tutorials and forced motion control in the giant Luigi battles were the worst points.
When it come to everything else... The new world they introduce is a unique concept in the serie (and a good way to do some fan-service by bringing back Superstar Saga species/popple) , the new characters are pretty charming (Antasma never get enough love) , the main gimmick with Luigi and the dream world change a lot how you apprpoach battles , there's a healthy variety between 2D dream worlds and the 3D overworld , some new bros attacks , a kicker OST , and while the plot is still "Bowser kidnap peach" , his relationship with Antasma and the tools he have change a looooooot.
Heck , they even give you an hard mode , and people often complain that Mario and Luigi games are too easy !

At worst , I see people annoyed for the "pandering" of other Mario and Luigi , by bringing back SS (Popple , the bean people , ect...) PiT (Kylie Koopa) and BiS character (Broque Madame , Elite Trio) but I think it fit in the context of that world , and we still get new characters like Big Massif , the Zeekeeper and Antasma.

I think it started to went down with Paper Jam , because while mechanically it improve on a lot , it played it waaaay too safe story wise and with it's world building. While I enjoyed the characterization of the koopalings , almost everything else fall flat for me.
I think they truly should have stopped at the SS remake because while it was good , I think it released in like... The same month as Odyssey ? Hence why the sales figure weren't all that good.

A lot of songs she has made are in Smash and she has even remixed quite a few tracks too. I think Geno will have better treatment with music then FF and DQ personally.

We actually have no idea everything that actually goes into negotiating music, so assuming that Yoko being a literal queen means that we will get more than 2 tracks is probably not the way to go. I was responding to someone asking why just 2 music tracks would be taken down for Geno and provided the pattern laid out for us with other SE additional content and why having just 2 tracks taken down would make sense. Sure, more than 2 music tracks are possible, but you're kind of just going on blind faith without knowing what actually goes in to securing music for smash.

I LOVE The Noble Demon. I'm with you; they deserve way more attention. I imagine this is what Super Mario RPG music might sound like in Smash.

 

[Griselda]

Moleville Mountain is a potential Geno stage that I feel gets overlooked as an option. We already have something similar in looks with the retro F-Zero stage, I believe. And I always liked that part of the game in general, personally. I feel we could've gotten another third-person segment like that at some point in SMRPG and it would've fit right in.

[Glitch-EGamer]

What if, hear me out, Geno comes with two SMRPG tracks, similar to how the other Square characters only got two tracks a piece technically, but they release other Mario RPG tracks as well, like music from Mario + Rabbids, Paper Mario, etc?

 

[MattX20]

Just over 40 days left before the June Direct if we assume it happens on the 11th as initially planned.

I'm very, very drunk right because I'm depressed as **** with stuff going on in my town but I gotta say, I'm happy to be here. I know being in the Geno fanbase sometimes feels like being on the Titanic but I'm glad this fanbase keeps on going. Remember how ****ing depressing the wait to E3 2019 was because Hero was all but confirmed a whopping 7 months in advance and many people thought that was the end of Geno? Think about where we are now and how many of the same people have stuck around since the "ah ****" moment back in November 2018 when Geno was revealed to be a spirit. It's night and day and now we have people grasping at straws to say Geno's not likely instead of using Hero as the spoon to make us eat **** that Geno wasn't the second Square character. Crazy how life works. Once again, y'all are great and I appreciate you guys sticking around despite the regular attempts of people to torpedo our enthusiasm for literally more than two years now. You all have kept on keeping on and it's amazing we could literally be as little as 5 1/2 weeks away from Geno comin' to Smash.

Yeah, those months until E3 2019 were rough, but in retrospect, we didn't need to dread them or the presentation for the Dragon Quest heroes..

This is one of the reasons why I want to see him be apart of Smash Bros. This feat alone is pretty impressive and if others did not keep strong for this long, I would have given up as far back as end of Brawl.

I totally feel ya, dude!... well, minus the drunk part. I'm doing far from great overall, quarantine is really getting to me like mad. But being with you guys is one of the few things that keeps cheering me up, even if more so on Discord than on Smashboards nowadays. For a fanbase of a supposedly "dead" or "unimportant" character, we're actually doing pretty well keeping our community established and even thriving, really. Especially after all this bumpy rollercoaster of speculation we've been through, that's pretty goddamn impressive. Very glad I joined this community even if it was a little late. Let's push through this y'all, we're almost there!

I feel really iffy sharing this because I know I'll get flak for some of these decisions, but I just want to get it out there.
All of the leaks, theories and coincidences are pretty reasonable, and because of them I think this is a pretty good outlook on how the pass could end up.

ARMS - Already confirmed
Geno- Missing Mii costume, Mii list, Cacomallow, music copystrikes
Western - Cacomallow, Pete Hines confirming talks with Nintendo for Smash, supposed Activision documents
Sol - Kunio-kun Spirits (really odd, ask for better explanation in anywhere other than the Geno thread), upcoming release of Strive
Rayman - Ubisoft asking about Fighters Pass in survey, weird advertising patterns for Ubisoft Mii Costumes
LoL - Weirdly coincidential 4chan post, Tencent releasing Switch in China (bigger deal than many seem to realize, ask for better explanation in anywhere other than the Geno thread)

This would be great, as I would get either my most wanted (Doomguy) or one of my other most wanted (Crash), get another one of my most wanted (Rayman), and a character I like and deserves the spot after so many years (Geno). Don't give a damn for Sol or League but I would like them more than Byleth, Hero, and Joker.

Well I get Geno so I'd be happy, but it comes with 3 "eh, don't care" characters (unless Twintelle or RG is picked for the ARMS rep), 1 "literally who?" character, and 1 "it greatly depends who this is" character. Again though, Geno, so I wouldn't mind. Would be a better pack than FP1 as a result of mostly Geno and no "ugh why/actively against this character getting in" picks, which is why I don't see it happening (outside of ARMS/Geno, obviously). I can't help but feel I'll be dreadfully disappointed with at least 1 pick in FP2, lol.
