I'd say Advance Wars is one that deserves a rep, too. Chibi Robo is up there, but not deserving. I think in order from most to least, the unrepped franchises that deserve a rep are:Hello Isaac bro!
Yeah RH and GS are the remaining Nintendo franchises that don't have a rep, but need need a rep
I am willing to give benefit of the doubt when it comes to size. Erdrick as an adult looks pretty tall. I can see him being Cloud's height easy. On top of that, there have always been a ton of liberties taken when putting a character in. Ridley is smaller than K.Rool, Bowser and Dedede when he would be a giant to those guys based on source material alone.
Yeah, because of the amount of spirits from those two franchises compared to other Nintendo franchises, I think those two and ARMS (I can't believe I forgot about ARMS lmao, butMy fellow Geno bro! :D
Agreed. Funny enough both series got the most spirits compared to other series without playable reps from what I seen. It may amount to nothing at the end of the day, but it's great to see the representation given and here's hoping it bodes well for them having future playable characters in smash.
-Also on a side note how's the super mario rpg campaign? Have a major exam I'm preparing for in two weeks, but would love to help out as much as I can afterwards alongside with getting Golden Sun revived of course
Tetrin
reminded me) are the next Nintendo franchises without a rep to get a rep.
Those are good franchises to get a rep. I do not know why I forgot about ARMS
I guess that's fair, but I just don't see them compressing Joker that much. He'd look weird imo, but I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
I, uh-
I agree with all of your selections, but do you have a source on Daemon X Machina being co owned by Nintendo?Oh lol nvm then
But on the subject of retro series, which ones do you feel deserve a rep?
Actually, just extend the question to any Nintendo series lol.
For me:
F-Zero deserves an echo. It had 8 games and was decently popular. We've never seen the characters, so that's the only thing holding it back from a full-fledged second rep imo.
Advance Wars. Preferably Andy. Don't even know why they killed off the series.
Golden Sun. See game above. Isaac for Smash.
Sin and Punishment. Definitely more obscure than the others, but had two games in a genre Nintendo wasn't quite used to. I think it should get either Saki or Isa.
Chibi Robo. It had 5 games and still no rep. Unfair if you ask me.
Mysterious Murasame Castle. Not so much deserving, just Takamaru would be a cool inclusion. Katana fighters in general would be like faster and more versatile sword fighters.
Rhythm Heaven. Outrageous they haven't been given someone Chorus Kids, Marshal, or Karate Joe better be in the next game.
ARMS. Sold 2 million units on its first game, which isn't so common for new IPs by Nintendo anymore. Admittedly, Spring Man is not brimming with moveset potential, it'd still be cool to improvise in this case.
Daemon X Machina. Only partially owned by Nintendo, but I think it shows a lot of promise. Hopefully gets a rep (and a sequel).
So much yes. (Pls guys if you like Qbby come to the support thread it’s quiet in there)
Considering this is a Geno Support thread, I think it is best to stay on topic with just discussing Geno and (indirectly) any character to come under the same banner of Mario Series or Square Enix.
I don't, but I'm 99% sure that they have partial rights. Marvelous developed the game, but Nintendo is publishing it. That's what happened with Bayo 2, and Nintendo has partial rights to that game. And unlike with Octopath, Also, you could even look it up; none of them are sources I'd quote, but almost everyone has referred to it as first-party.
Oh man I'm super late, but I just checked out the first post in the Starfall thread. What's going on? I don't typically read through all the pages I've missed but I gather you guys want to make a video or something by E3? I signed the petition in that thread and I'm gonna share it on social media later. I don't think I'll have much time to do anything atm, but I'd like to help (:Anger is a hell of a motivator but you have to channel it in the right way. Let's make a deadline, eh? Let's produce something tangible by E3. How does that sound? I'm still supporting Geno in this game but let's do something with this. Some of you are indignant, okay, what are you going to do about it? @papagenosTerminalMontage Any ideas?
THIS IS WHAT STILL GIVES ME HOPESomeone messaged me this on my tumblr
I hope it's an insider that likes my work so that's why he's sharing with me.
(it most definitely isn't).
Ah sorry about that. For some reason or another part of the quotation I used back on the isaac thread carried over and I had to edit it out.
This time it'll feel like a middle finger to our face. Hell, even Slime gets more requested than Erdrick and Erdrick seems more likely. That's why I'm actually not a big fan of marketing characters that make it into Smash... like Corrin for example, I didn't like him back in the DLC for SSB4 because he was there just to promote. I'm 100% against characters that are only in Smash because of promotion. It's basically like hiring an unskilled and inexperienced worker to do the job instead of hiring a worker who's an expert and experienced at the job. We'll just have to see until it's officially confirmed.
You are welcome! Thank you
I know about the leaks, but we won't find out until it's officially confirmed. And yeah, it's disappointing if that's true. The hint with Shulk and Geno is either a coincidence or done by Sakurai himself, giving us a small hint. Erdrick is 90% looking official, but it'll be such a rare thing if he actually ends up being leakbait and if the Square character ends up being someone else. Remember what Polar's source said, nobody knows the DLC, and it was true with nobody knowing Joker. If Erdrick is our Square character, then for once his source ends up being wrong and we probably know the DLC.Oh man I'm super late, but I just checked out the first post in the Starfall thread.

Also.. I saw the recent leaks. I guess DQ is a sealed deal. I just hope there is a Goku color scheme
I also saw the leaks that guessed him and Joker that mentioned Doomguy, Steve and Ninja Gaiden.. Very disappointing if true but..
This still gives me hope. SHULK CAN SEE INTO THE FUTURE. THIS MUST BE A HINT.
I think we are definitely getting an SE rep from the list of seven. IIRC, according to Vergeben, there were firings at Square for the list being leaked. Makes it obvious that there is an SE rep from the list of seven, so I think we are definitely getting one of those 7 characters
I hope that one lucky character that makes it in out of the 7 is Geno.
If we get 2 of them, I hope the 2nd one is Sephiroth.
Isn't Erdrick's game is like really old at this point, how he's a promotional character?
Gotta ask, what are the recent leaks? Not gonna take it seriously if it's just Vergeben, though. And what's interesting about Mallow not being an icon? Mallow surely wouldn't get in over Geno.
Basically a datamine done over a month ago that revealed the coding blue prints for Pirhana Plant, Joker, and "Brave" with all current evidence pointing to it being a Dragon Quest character based on what's been learned in roughly six months' time. It was kept a secret until some dumbass blabbed and now it's been covered by literally every gaming outlet.
Bless you, bardbowman.
Yeah man it's interesting because I've seen ever major outlet cover the leak at this point, but they're also going a step further and covering the Doomguy/ninja gaiden portions of leaks that aren't even connected to the original "Brave" one really. The mainstream gaming media is really latching onto this way more than they ever did the Grinch leak. I think they might be setting themselves up to look silly there because even if Erdrick ends up being true that doesn't mean Doomguy, Steve, and Ryu Hayabusa are. But of course if they're wrong their response will be "Well we said it was a rumor not that it was confirmed :^)". To me things like Steve and Doomguy feel a bit fishy. Especially considering how Vergeben more or less backtracked on Steve as a playable character. The more I think about it the more it doesn't seem to line up.
It'd be less a promotion for his specific game and more for DQ as a whole considering it has never had the popularity in the west that it enjoys in Japan. Also if the rumors of the Luminary being an alt are true that would line u[ with DQ11 getting a port on the switch.
lmao I just came here and made my last post specifically because I just watched that Gamexplain video and found my face contorting as they for the most part totally ate up this rumor while remembering how skeptical they were of the Grinch leak. Like, wtf.
There is a lot of misinformation spreading around, even in cases where people make it clear of the Ryu/Steve/Doomguy leaks origin.
I mean, one had pretty much all leakers saying it was fake and the other one just exists.
True. And I think that's because they had tangible evidence that the leak was fake (seeing inceniroar and piranha plant) versus now there's nothing specifically refuting this. But at the same time you'd think they'd be more skeptical considering how convincing fake leaks have been in the recent past. Just because something doesn't have evidence of being fake doesn't mean they should be broadcasting it as being likely true.
We've had nearly every character leaked this time, so it makes sense fans and outlets are "trying to solve the puzzle".
"Nearly all of the previous characters have been leaked. Therefore, all the future characters will!"
I feel as though they do know certain things about the dlc and they are agreeing with the leak because it is indeed true, or they've been ordered by Nintendo to say it's true to throw everyone off. I think the latter is highly possible. But I do think Erdrick and Steve are in.
It could be because people aren't aware that the supposed leak was made after Joker's reveal, so they see a leak that supposedly predicted Joker (who's been revealed) and Erdrick (who's been implied through datamining), and they think that the entire thing (Steve?/Ryu Hayabusa/Doomguy) is legitimate.
