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

[Mellowy Yellow]

I just adore the sheer utter hypocrisy of smash "fans" celebrating the sadness of Geno fans right now whilst also gloating and not shutting up about a character with literally no chances of getting in due to Disney "still having a shot" and a character whos literally an assist trophy and is only supported because hahaha funny memes. **** this community honestly

 

[Dan]

So the question is is there a face that doesn't look absolutely stupid like the one they showed? What a shocker to end here after Banjo, Rool and Ridley. The poor face just came across as a total rushed middle finger to us.

 

[zipzapsparkle]

I was hoping Geno would get a premium costume at least, I feel bad for his fans.

 

[~ Valkyrie ~]

The fact that people on Twitter are happy that Geno fans are suffering and sad rn is everything wrong with the Smash community. Disgusting.

It truly is a disgusting practice... I've really had my share of most toxic memories with the community back in Smash 4-era, regarding that kind of excessive, ignorant pouring salt on the wound.

[MattX20]

I know this was a crushing blow. But you know what? We kept getting up at the end of the day, and we just continued to support Mario RPGs when we can. We must continue to do so, I mean, Geno himself never gave up, so why should we?

 

[SSGuy]

Geno was recently revealed as a Mii Fighter Costume for Super Smash Bros Ultimate!

I have to admit, the detail on this thing is a step up from the previous version. Really awesome to see the work the team put into this costume! 🌠#SmashBros pic.twitter.com/reo7MjiQM9

I figured I'd share this. Like I said, I have no regrets. Thanks again for being a great community!

 

[Dan]

And there it is. The cherry to top of the **** Sunday that is 2020. Thanks nintendo and square you really show just how much you care. Not even a deluxe or music track. Hes never getting in.

Yes, but Ridley.

 

[Firox]

Wow, looks like Sakurai snuck in a Boss Rush mode after all. The twist? It takes a boss to beat a boss.

 

[RetrogamerMax]

Anyone else have literally no other characters they want besides Geno now? I guess I'll sit on my hands while the rest of FP2 trickles out haha

Mainly besides Geno I want:

Goemon (Already an Mii costume)
Krystal (Already an Assist Trophy)
Dixie Kong
Porky Minch
Pig Ganon
Zero (Already an Assist Trophy)
Tron Bonne
Shantae
Skull Kid (Already an Assist Trophy)
Elma

Dixie, Shantae, and Elma are the only characters I see that have a chance. The others on my list are very unlikely.

 

[Griselda]

..What the-

Boss Rush exists, but it's locked behind Seph. What?

Why?

 

[Deleted member]

Well, that's rough.

Oh well!

 

[Just a random scrub]

So they're restricting Boss Rush to one character?

****ing why? What's the logic?

 

[Dynamic Worlok]

The fact that people on Twitter are happy that Geno fans are suffering and sad rn is everything wrong with the Smash community. Disgusting.

It is no surprise that the smash community likes to clown on people that support characters who don't make it in. Geno especially. Best just to ignore twitter

I also find it SO IRONIC that the same people who are complaining about half of the roster being sword fighters, they STILL want someone as ridiculous and far fetched as Sora in this game.

 

[Inawordyes]

Hi guests and new friends! We love you and hope you're doing well!

 

[Malo Mart]

cacomallow has spoken one last time:

There was a problem fetching the tweet

our voices shall be heard, i don't care what it takes. we cannot let geno and the mario rpgs as we knew them to fall into obscurity.

 

[xNovaNebulax]

...5 more years... wont hurt... right...?

 

[coolcat12347]

... when in doubt i can go back to mainly supporting shantae?

 

[NerfOrNothiing]

Well that's an abrupt end isn't it. not even a deluxe...just sad
Gonna have to stay off twitter for a while, pretty messed up how happy they are about it

I'm still glad to have supported the dream, he'll get his chance one day.

 

[Jurae818]

Wow, looks like Sakurai snuck in a Boss Rush mode after all. The twist? It takes a boss to beat a boss.

A shame for people who may not want to buy Sephiroth to do so, and I'm not saying this out of spite, but courtesy. A boss rush was something people asked for, and they get this instead. A monkey's paw if I ever saw one.

 

[Aerospherology]

At least Sephiroth has remixes.
Square's getting better with Smash.

 

[Joshdabozz]

WE HAVE 11 FF SONGS NOW LOL

I'm so disappointed tho, freaking square

 

[RedMachine123]

I'm still processing the fact that we got killed in the first 45 seconds of the presentation.

 

[Terry Badguy]

Alright that's it

What the actual ****???

Did they just reuse the smash 4 costume ?

What the actual ****

No deluxe ?

No music ?

4000 pages on smashboards for this ?

**** this like what the actual ****

 

[PurpleGiraffesMeow]

I'll admit, this stung a lot more than I thought it would.

It's been real Gen-bros

 

[S1itchey]

Yes, but Ridley.

I feel like that was more sakurai giving the fans what they wanted than Nintendo. Even if they do care about the fans its surely not geno and his fans .

 

[Ovaltine]

Okay, honestly kinda pissed off that they couldn't just model a head for him. Was that really so impossible? Cripes.

That said, we fought the good fight. Remember to always keep your voices loud about Geno reappearing one day. Don't let the hope die.

 

[Malo Mart]

the fight's not over until it's over. we must make our wishes heard no matter what.

(note: i don't know who to credit for this piece, but if anyone can let me know, it'd be appreciated)

 

[Kurb]

Well boys im done, we out this *****. If he didn't get into ultimate I fear for any chance he has moving forward. Its been real spending these 2 years with all of you Adios.

 

[MattX20]

Guys, remember what Geno's mission was? It wasn't just to restore Star Road, it was also to help grant wishes. We should follow his example and try to help grant the wishes of other people.

 

[The DoE]

Sephiroth gets 9 new songs and a new special mode dedicated to him, yet Geno can't get its head modeled.

 

[CannonStreak]

Well, it has been a fun ride, so while I will move onto other threads, it sucks this had to happen.


See you around, guys.

 

[Aerospherology]

Here comes another troll. Block and report.

 

[RedMachine123]

Well... I really hope the SMRPG remake/sequel rumors are true.

 

[Dan]

I feel like that was more sakurai giving the fans what they wanted than Nintendo. Even if they do care about the fans its surely not geno and his fans .

He will have his day. He was never in the same ball park as Ridley and Rool; it took them a long time to have their day after being at the top of the chain.

But this was so ****ed up beyond belief; I can't get over how stupid the face they used for him looked. If I had the power I would cancel all remaining DLC and never have a Smash game made again. This, Plant and Byleth are tied for the 3 worst moments in Smash history; Corrin isn't far behind.

 

[~ Valkyrie ~]

Another thing to take into consideration and I have the Sonic fandom to thank for this: If you want something done, you gotta do it yourself. SEGA is hellbent on not continuing Sonic Mania's success and it says a lot when a few fans can outdo a so-called professional company. Then again, it also speaks miles about where this industry is heading. If you guys want Geno to return to Mario, you need not rely on Nintendo and especially the Square half. You can easily make your own stuff to scratch that Geno itch, fangames, rom hacks, mods like PMEX with Geno and other characters that were deemed unimportant for the marketers and stockholders.

The fans can make better content than official studios, and this is why I'm not particularly mad with Ultimate, or the industry anymore. All the fan-created content does is show them that they have to step their **** up or get outclassed. What's it gonna be, corporations?

There's a reason I'll be forever grateful for Project M to allow me realize the dream to play Wario as I remembered him, over what Smash officially goes on to depict... a self-serving, yet highly competent and ludicrously powerful anti-hero, as opposed to Sakurai's over-generalizing "gross and zany 'Bad Mario'"-clone.

Along those was Lyndis and Knuckles on the way. Unfortunately however... there's a reason why Nintendo's been the eternal thorn on fans's side to even go fully carry out those dreams on their own.

 

[PestilenceSSB]

We need to vote with our wallets... let's all buy Geno's Mii costume.

 

[Powerman293]

BRO WHY IS THE GENO COSTUME LIKE 75% FINISHED? HE COULD HAVE HADE A PREMIUM HEAD AND LOOKED PERFECT.

 

[xNovaNebulax]

i hate being upset. i should be happy hes included in some way.. but COME ON! not even prenium..?

 

[pinshadow]

Well, THERE'S OUR EXPLANATION. THEY'RE ADDING HIM TODAY, BUT YOU ONLY GET HIM BY BEATING THE SUPERBOSS MODE, AND THE COSTUMES/STAGE ARE ALL OUT NEXT WEEK. ****. It ALL lines up.
