Spoiler

Oh joy! another character no fan asked for! ****ing Nintendo

And that's 2/5

We're getting down to the wire

Spoiler

also evidence of a "Style Savvy" character, or at least a stage. And if Stages are linked to characters in the DLC...

Spoiler

What’s the evidence? Thought there was only a song, is that... like, coded to link to something?

 

[KoopaSaki]

Spoiler: Possible DLC spoiler

Evidence has been found that Monster Hunter content is being categorized in the game's data the same way it is for fighters, possibly hinting at a Monster Hunter character for DLC, making it yet another character that would have made the Mii costume to playable jump.

*sweats profusely*

Whoa........... (Spoiler) in smash? I wouldn't disagree with that. This doesn't hurt geno's chances at all right?

 

[RingJ5]

SPOILERS

Spoiler-tag that, man.

 

[ForsakenM]

Uh oh...hey guys, sudden bad thought here.

What if the reason Geno is an icon is that is all Nintendo/Sakurai could get this time and Geno's Mii Costume was pulled from the game entirely because Square is a pair or stingy dingy socks?

Holy **** i would be livid

The song apparently had data that tied it to a stage or something? And if DLC character and stages are from the same series...

Although it's also possible it was just a stage and song that was going to be added but cut

Impossible, if he’s in as an icon, they’d have the rights for a Spirit. And the fact that there’s no SMRPG music is a huge indication that he isn’t one, as we’ve seen that music can change for specific Spirit fights.

What would they get out of removing the costume but not the character rights in its entirety? That makes little sense.

In that case, the stage doesn’t even have to be for that series, they could have tied it to some other random stage that got cut/is upcoming. Doesn’t mean a character from that franchise is happening.

 

[Mellowy Yellow]

How in the hell did this game went from: "This roster is for the fans" to "HAHAHAH **** you guys we're gonna promote these games you don't even wanna play now"

Especially if Nintendo of America wished Super Mario RPG a happy anniversary this year and didn't do so when they got his Mii costume for Smash 4. I have a really hard time believing that he isn't one of the five because I think they would include him in a more meaningful way than a Mii costume, and he isn't an assist trophy

It could.

But the Downloadable stages are tied to characters. So if it's upcoming, then it's going to have a character from that series

 

[RingJ5]

Yeah, but what I’m saying is, unless they found code that specifically calls for a Style Savvy stage, the upcoming stage that uses it as one of its songs could literally be anything and just have that song in its selection.

That's what they are saying. A stage

 

[Fatmanonice]

It's cracking me up that Capcom is getting several dozen new remixes in this game while Square Enix can barely cough up two straight rips. Capcom is definitely a company that acts like it's happy to be in Smash.

 

[FCZHornet]

There appears to be some evidence that a character was cut based on some file names, take that as you will.

 

[OptimisticStrifer]

I dunno; I know a select few who wanted Style Savvy. I wouldn't mind TOO much; as long as Geno's there too. It could certainly be creative.

Is there any clues as to who it was?

This, we need the source of the MH info and the Style Savvy being tied to a stage.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

I'm trying to find out from where

/v/ thread is where I heard it

 

[MattX20]

Guys, remember that the Style Savvy thing could be just a cut stage idea/data like the Forbidden 7 in Brawl. Same could be true for Monster Hunter

 

[Grunky Peep]

If only Square realized that literally every other third party is probably making way more money off of Smash than they are.

 

[ForsakenM]

Style Savvy had tracks in Smash Wii U. Calm down folks, music gets in without reps or stages all the time.

 

[coolcat12347]

I'd love Style Savvy mostly due to the fact- maybe we'll get music from Styling Star.

*Cries in Golden Sun*

 

[ForsakenM]

The track position being with the fighter's music is likely that they were thought of as fighters at one point but were scrapped. Not for sure of course, but it's the more likely option.

To back you up on this.
https://www.reddit.com/r/smashbros/...game_leak_megathread_215_any_and_all/eabpcj4/

It could be the Monster Hunter, because of how the music is listed as fighter or whatever.

My personal opinion is it could be the Square Rep. I am only basing this off of Vergeben's claims when they mentioned a Square Rep back in...June? July?
How would they know that unless that character was planned to be in the game?

As for MH, I think if Verge knew that, he would have said Monster Hunter was a character instead of a Square Rep.

Again this is speculation on my part. For all we know, it could be a character NO ONE can predict.

 

[MattX20]

Guys, come on now. If we do get a Monster Hunter rep, that's Capcom not Square Enix. We mustn't lose faith in PolarPanda and his source. It's really premature to give up now

 

[OptimisticStrifer]

Yo; I wouldn't be upset with Monster Hunter lmao. Monster Hunter, along with Geno and Banjo would be great!

 

[Fatmanonice]

An easy work around, of course, is if a character was cut from the base roster just to have them as DLC like Lucas was for Smash 4.

 

[owjies]

Agreed. If anything Monster Hunter is a good sign because it means that there is no hard and fast rule about the number of reps per 3rd party. So, if we are fortunate enough to get multiple Fighter Passes, then there's nothing stopping us from getting more than one more Square Rep. However, Capcom is very open to crossovers in general.

Edit: OH! I almost forgot about this:

Spoiler: Monster Hunter

If Monster Hunter is for real, that's another promoted Mii Costume! Only Geno/Chocobo and Heihachi/Lloyd/Gil left.

 

[Deleted member]

I think the fact that Cloud was the final veteran added increases the chances of a SE rep as DLC, since they want money for their inclusion

 

[xpnc]

My 1st wave dlc predictions:
Geno
Monster Hunter
Something Microsoft
Something Kirby
Advertisement: Pokemon or Fire Emblem

Ninten, the protagonist of Earthbound Beginnings, hasn't been seen as a spirit yet, but all of his party members have, and we are almost finished with finding all the spirits, and I hope this means what I think this means....

I’d honestly love to see both Ninten and Linkle as “characters who look like other characters but could actually play far differently”

That goes against Sakurai's design philosophy.

There is the thing called the Silhouette theory that Sakurai has discussed where the way he designs characters is that you can play them even if you can't see them clearly. That's why he makes characters with similar looks or proportions clones/ echoes.

That's good, because I'm going to be playing Ultimate until I'm old and can't see the screen very well.
