Mike Jones is one of the "older Nintendo" reps that I think they wouldn't add. Mike is obscure even when compared to Isaac, Andy, and Takamaru, and on top of that, his support group isn't nearly as large as others. And like Erdrick, adding his kid form before his adult form is not really in line with the point of StarTropics. There's just nothing in it for Nintendo as far as I can see.
Yeah, true. You never know though. I think it would be cool if they did add him

It would be weird to have him in his kid from first though

Okay what is with random people coming in and being super patronizing just because some of us said Brave might be Geno? Like really it’s just a guess same as anyone else’s and is going off of the data available. Is it now sacrilege to say Brave might not be Erdrick or something? People used to admonish us all the time for being an echochamber regarding Geno but tbh lately it feels like you can’t say anything resembling the notion that the SE character might not be Erdrick without people throwing a fit and listing off 3 paragraphs of reasons why it totally is Erdrick and you’re a deluded fool. Literally no one but SE knows for sure who this character is. Brave could be Erdrick as a very unconventional small swordsman whose data is significantly different than all other swordsmen in the game or it could just not be Erdrick. And if it’s not Erdrick there’s the possibility that it might be Geno. I don’t think that last idea is so taboo that people need to come into the thread and “Um no sweety...” us about it.
..holy CRAP that is literally what I'm dealing with.
Yeah, people just need to lay off. I'm over this hate, too, it's getting old. I don't remember the Smash community being this bad before, but it's getting worse. Speculating is a different story; that's fine and there's nothing wrong with that, because we all do it and there's no reason people should be scolding you two for it. The only reason why they're acting like this is because their character seems very likely. For all we know, Brave could be ****ing Stanley the Bugman. I'd stay away from them and just stay here at headquarters.

You know, all of this talk you mentioned reminds me of that tweet. I think you know which one I'm talking about.

Yep. I know what you're talking about

It's most likely because there's less character support threads than ever before, with most fanbases defeated by Spirits, Assist Trophies, or just giving up on their favorites. For fans who aren't rooting for anything, there isn't much else to do besides hate.

Hopefully we get something. At this point I'm ready to just hop on the "Lets at least not get steve, because that would be horrible" train.
This is basically where I've been for a while. I could accept or tolerate almost any other commonly speculated or talked about character for Smash. Steve though I find to be incredibly unappealing.

The Western side of Pop Star.
If anyone wants a complete list of Brave's stats to look at, Untouch took the liberty of screencapping all of them.



Movement in Startropics was tile-based on a top-down grid a la Zelda 1, so their movement would like have to be adapted liberally.
ACTUALLY Mike's a baseball player, one of his main weapons is his baseball bat, so yeah he might actually to reference that
That'd be too good to be true. Then again, his character thread could use the activity.

I love how no one's talking about Katalina anymore.

Also, I'm on the "Please reveal someone, anyone already, and SM3DW as well if possible" train.

I'm on the "I want something proven wrong about any of the leaks so we're allowed to speculate about more than four characters again" train. That's what kills me. There's a hard freeze on speculation that isn't Erdrick, Ryu, Steve, and Doomguy and it's going to be awful if this is all the community is willing to seriously talk about until E3.

Erdrick is one thing, but anyone who seriously believes Ryu, Steve, and Doomguy are next this early on are crazy. We only just got the datamined info regarding Brave, and to my knowledge, there has been no evidence to support the later 3 at all or any info hinting at the next characters in the game code. That, and Polar's NOA source made it very clear no one knew who the DLC characters were and only that a Square rep is on the way.

I was thinking, and even if the character isn't Mike Jones, the "Brave" codename coming from the character being American in origin still makes a lot of sense. What American characters (1st, 2nd, or 3rd party) would fit those stats?
Posted this in the Brave discussion thread, but what do you guys think?

Probably because either no one wants to talk about that, or because all leakers lost credibility after Joker was announced.
It's because the person who claimed Katalina was undergoing negotiations ended up stating that those negotiations were not for Smash.

Word on the street is Thursday although it could be wrong.
So if I am to guess, a lot of people are going to be mysteriously changing their tune on the idea of the character not being Erdrick, is that correct?

OTTERS UP

I'm steeling myself for Thursday otters

(Also, guys, implication is a Direct, not Brave being Geno. It's a play on Jon McGamexplain Cartwright's otters before a direct thing.)
Don't ignore this

I think anybody not really knowing anything is the fun part about speculation because our imagines can run wild until everything is set in stone.

Hey guys...

At least, that's what it's looking like.
Beautiful. :)

Oh baby, look at him go!
I like your avatar. It matches your comment perfectly lol.

I have the Lazy Shell armor and weapon.

Time to break the game
It's time to kick *** and chew bubblegum. ;)

Jon tweeted 2 otter images:

First one was an otter eating a fish, comparing it to Nintendo fans waiting for a direct.

Second one was a picture of a bunch of his stuffed otters which said "My fiancee and I are Otter weirdos, sometimes you just gotta talk about otters without there being hints."

This is exactly what speculation should be instead of people ****ing on other people's ideas and wants

And yeah I am onto Barrel Volcano in my SMRPG playthrough :D

Ok I’m legitimately confused...what is the otter supposed to be a reference to....?
Jon from Gamexplain posts pictures of otters when a Direct is coming very soon. Possibly Thursday. However, I'm not so sure now that Jon tweeted again saying that it isn't always a hint and he just loves otters.

I had no idea about that. Thought the image was referencing something else entirely.

Mp4 would be amazing, but also just the reveal of the se character.

If it’s geno, YES!!!! If it’s not, please just announce it already so we can move on and hope for smash 6, instead of being stuck in limbo not knowing.
