I thank you but specifically Imran Khan responded to someone on Twitter shortly before Steve's reveal reiterating what he said about Sora essentialy being deconfirmed. I'm having difficulty finding this tweet but I know it happened and it was around the same time as his Monster Hunter tweet.
I feel this exactly. I’m just SUPER tired of hearing that damn ninja’s name and I’m also kinda tired of hear Dante’s name since he has MAYBE one piece of evidence going for him (DMC3 SE switch edition) but everyone acts like he’s a shoe in. I want Dante a lot but I definitely think people are blowing his chances out of proportion
Pretty sure you're just thinking of this:
I don't think this particular tweet exists. Are you sure it was real?
It'd be nice, but i'm definitely not expecting any Directs before next year; just two or three more Partner Presentations for the remaining months. They could always date a game like New Pokemon Snap via a Twitter shadowdrop trailer though.
Hey thanks Mondo, although I swore he had a tweet around that time in which he reiterated what he said about Sora.
Thank you!!! I am honored good sir
You know I don’t necessarily disagree with you because I think he’s a very special case. Honestly, I think Hayabusa is more iconic than the games themselves considering he’s a main character in Dead or Alive, made 5 or 6 appearances in the Warriors games, made an appearance (technically) in both Nioh games so far, and even made a name drop and reference in ****ing Halo 3.
I get the appeal of Cinderace but I personally think Urshifu would be a better choice as his design kind of screams Smash to me. Also, having a third fire type Pokémon in the game would be kind of lame as other types are not represented by hey, let’s see
Urshifu wouldn't work in Smash.
Sorry for not responding sooner, had a busy day today.
Urshifu doesn’t represent any new types either though. We’ve got a fighting type (Lucario), two water types (Squirtle and Greninja) and two dark types (Greninja and Incineroar). Not really pumped up for Cinderace or Urshifu as potential options, so i’m hoping we just don’t get a Gen 8 rep.
I've had several Pokemon over the years named after him, the most recent being the hilariously obvious Minior, but I do have a competitive male Meowstic named after him. You could ask me for my reasoning but I don't really have answers for you. It just fits to me. Idk.
Well, maybe they could explain it away as Urshifu seeing both scrolls when it evolved from a Kubfu?
I'm thinking Fairy/Steel. Fairy fits with being him being a star and he's part Steel because of his guns.
Yea, that's basically how I view it, especially with his DoA and Warriors appearances he is more or less the Koei Tecmo posterboy. My whole thing is that people try and push him as this NES icon that's super tied to Nintendo like Castlevania and Mega Man which I just don't jive with. If he's in he's there to represent Koei Tecmo, which has fully earned a slot at this point and I'm honestly shocked it hasn't happened yet (and is ironically part of the reason I think he ISN'T getting in, but that's a discussion for another time.)
Unless the rumors about a Super Mario RPG revival are true, it's going to be difficult to get Geno into new Mario games considering he'll still be owned by Square Enix. Maybe limited-time events in the Mario mobile games could work; like Dr. Geno in Dr. Mario World or Geno and Mallow in Mario Kart Tour? It'd be cool to see him anything else after Smash, really.
In my opinion, either Psychic/Normal or Fairy/Normal, but I'm leaning on the first. Psychic or Fairy because he uses energy based attacks and he has an attack that's made of light. Normal because, for one, he's a doll; two, my mind may be fuzzy, but I remember that a lot of "shooting" Pokemon or attacks become Normal type. I saw somebody mention Steel earlier, but Steel types are generally bulkier, and Geno has the weakest defenses of the crew.
I'd say Psychic/Steel.
I pitched a pretty similar idea awhile back, when I was hoping to discuss ideas for a hypothetical SMRPG2. My idea was simply to have Geno possess different doll bodies with different builds, almost like a job class system, so Geno could potentially fill any role you need for different scenarios. Though my direction would have his different bodies draw inspiration from Final Fantasy classes, rather than different kinds of toys. Imagine having a Thief Geno when you need him to be faster, or a Paladin Geno when you need him to be a tank (with the bonus that he turns into a literal tank when he uses Geno Flash in that body).
If I had to guess there probably was a model sheet for the mii costume, potentially Geno's new design entirely since they had to redesign him...But I wouldn't be surprised if it was just the body with a cursed mii face...
Yup, I noticed Geno had been slightly updated but it wasn't until I heard about the K. Rool costume that I realized this could be something HUGE.Your right...! I did notice the differences between Geno's artwork and the Mii costume! That's something we should add to the list! Why do I say this? well...look at this part of this video.

You're good haha I usually wait to read the thread when I'm going to bed anyways (or lying in bed for several hours, but let's not worry about that).
I agree with this prediction!
Geno: The costume model is there, just like with K. Rool they made changes from his artwork. I think Square wanted Hero to go first in DLC to promote DQ 11. Geno is the last “fan demanded wish list character, that still needs to go in. Like Ridley, Banjo and K. Rool before him. You can’t say “Everyone is Here,” without Geno. Sakurai endorsement, Wii U costume. He’s going in.
Geno speculation is a wild ride LOL.
Of course Ridley was never a costume, but I think he got a new original Smash design primarily based off Super Metroid.
That is just straight up not true and you know it. Mario is just normal Mario in this game, how can he use fireballs and the cape? Doesn’t he need a power up for that? He doesn’t take out a fire flower, use it, then punch himself to get rid of the power up right? There’s no music that plays to show he’s on a timer? How do ANY of the Pokémon mega evolve? how does Pit have more than one weapon when he has to change them before each mission? There’s no way Palutena can fit all those powers on her board! Inklings have multiple weapons as well which isn’t possible. Sonic LITERALLY picks up no rings in smash, how can he go super sonic? I don’t see the Belmonts picking up any sub weapons? Smash doesn’t care what’s possible or can’t happen in the home series.
