Would he be a 2D character or a cell-shaded 3D one?
I would love to see Cuphead in Smash, but I feel like he needs to keep the cartoon-aesthetic in a form that fits Smash.
Although maybe Sakurai manages to pull something better than expected with a 3D model.
I'll go ahead and write my signature here. What could possibly go wrong with these types of contracts!View attachment 184539
This is a late April Fools Joke?
Nope, the title wasn't a joke, i genuinely believe that Cuphead might have a clear shot (hahahaha) of being in the Fighter Pass, and as to why i think this is because of two major reasons.
Those two reasons being that Sakurai has both played and respected the game, and that most of, if not all of the characters will be unexpected surprises, while someone like Banjo or Steve would be would fit the "Surprise" part of this well, they would be pretty expected. But Cuphead would fit the bill for BOTH pretty well. Sure, he's a bit of a pipe dream considering he has ZERO relations with Nintendo, but hey if Miss Splosion Man, A previously Xbox 360 Exclusive game, can appear on The Switch... Then the idea of a Microsoft character in smash doesn't sound far off, and i know that someone like Master Chief or Steve would fit the Microsoft rep bill well. But considering Cuphead's massive popularity in both the east and the west, He's become as popular as them in terms of Microsoft characters.
Now that i have given you my reasoning, Care to sign the Devil's contract with me, and support Cuphead?

Well, there's going to be a physical edition once the DLC is out, so why not wait for that instead?This game deserves me paying full price, but I'm gonna wait for a sale and finish some of my other purchases.
--but if someone wants to send me a message when this game goes on sale, it will be greatly appreciated.
I love the design. I just know it is going to take me a few hundred hours to beat.
Mug just looks... happier. More welcoming. Maybe it's the nose.Bought it yesterday. Forget Banjo and Steve, this is the Microsoft character I want...as long as Mugman comes as an a proper alt (I just prefer his facial design)
His eyes are a lot cuter too. Cuphead has almost that sort of Sonic fused eyes thing going on which makes him look a little less innocent and more of a cynical edge. Maybe just me over analysing the design. It's probably a callback to Felix the Cat's look honestly.Mug just looks... happier. More welcoming. Maybe it's the nose.
Also, Cuphead's the reckless one that gets into trouble, Mugman is the more reasonable one.His eyes are a lot cuter too.

That's why I want Cuphead in the gameAlso, Cuphead's the reckless one that gets into trouble, Mugman is the more reasonable one.
or maybe after "A Knockout!" the screen just fades to black instead of the usual Smash transition and when the screen fades in we already see Cuphead's victory loop animation pointing at his victory screen like in the original game complete with his looping victory theme (like Joker's) and all those 80's grains and effects LOL,You know, considering Joker has a lot of unique aesthetics, here are a few ideas for Cuphead aesthetics:
If Cuphead knocks out the last opponent, instead of the traditional "GAME!", it will instead say "Knockout!", complete with the ringing bell, just like in the original source. And his victory theme could be his Victory Tune, which lasts longer than normal, but eventually the results screen music will play when it's over.
The funny thing is, this has been announced not too long after news of Oswald the rabbit getting a show. The brothers have come a long way.Just wanted to say that cuphead is getting their own show https://twitter.com/StudioMDHR/status/1148577617873920000
I'm still not sure how I feel about this art style. Does it look good? Yes. But for what Cuphead is trying to achieve? No. It looks like an old Nicktoon, not a Fleischer Cartoon.Just wanted to say that cuphead is getting their own show https://twitter.com/StudioMDHR/status/1148577617873920000
I'd be okay with it if it can be what Kricfaulski never got to do with "I like Pink" in Ren & Stimpy.It looks like an old Nicktoon, not a Fleischer Cartoon.
Also, with the Shovel Knight AT and the Sans costume, that's two indies out of the running. Shantae's still in a grey area, but things are shaping up nicely.I can’t believe nobody posted this yet
Wave 2 is officially confirmed
Cuphead now on switch and the creator wants him
We might be hitting a homerun
