Nintendo would be stupid if they refused. Chief's an instantly recognizable icon of the industry. He's arguably the face of Western gaming... It would be just like Sonic's reveal in Brawl, it would generate nuclear hype, which means sales
No I’m just saying people should stop saying Chief is more likely than characters who make a lot more sense for smash from the standpoint that they wouldn’t be advertising a rival console like Doom Guy and unlike Chief
They already crossed Rubicon River though. Rare Replay isn't on Switch, yet Banjo still made in. The game is still exclusive on the rival system. It's still the same principal regardless of relativity or size of franchise.
Tbh Banjo didn’t open any doors for Chief. A former second party character who was up for the taking due to being from a dead series. Like i said they lose a lot more if they put in Chief by advertising a rival system. Realistically speaking Chief should still be a long shot like he always has been
got released. Before this, his only Nintendo appearance was on Persona Q2.Just curious. Would you still keep the same opinion even after Halo Switch port becomes reality?
A) we don’t know if it will become a reality and (B) no I would be obliged to to change it because it wouldn’t make much sense for me to keep it. I’d go as far to say if it were to happen he’d be at a 85-90% shot. It’d be foolish to keep the exact same opinion tbh
So what do you think Halo Switch port would mean/represent?
Doesn’t really matter as it’s obvious. But Chief should still be viewed as a long shot unless it does happen
I think you've made your point, by now. No need to keep repeating how unlikely Chief is.
I was only responding. Wasn’t doing it to be heard. If I just told them to look back at my previous posts it would be even more repetitive. Anyway why bring them up now when they are mostly a couple days old and after I just mentioned I suppose he could be possible if the chief collection gets ported. I suppose it all comes down to whether zell is right or not
Did Zell predict it would happen during the next Direct? Or just at some point? If Halo does get shown in the next one, that'd be good news for Chief.
If I came across as such I greatly apologise. But I hope you can at least somewhat see my standpoint. iirc wyn is negative towards things like Geno which I assumed was because he didn’t want him to happen or at least some of the reason he was negative about stuff like that while I’m being negative about Chief so I don’t get my hopes up and keep my expectations in check. The circumstances surrounding Chief are what made me view it as such. I don’t not want Chief in. I would love him in but the circumstances are what is making me try to stay realistic
He just said at some point, honestly something like Halo on Switch should be saved for E3, specially considering Microsoft wants Infinite (or Halo in general) to take the show.
Yeah, that would make sense. Since E3 is getting less relevant by the year, this would be the ideal shocker to get people's attention.
His quote is shown on screencap here in this thread.
Throwback to when they revealed Joker's render before Nintendo did
I don’t really think the hostility is needed. It’s just a child’s fighting game after all and I do think you mean me. My main argument was that Nintendo wouldn’t bother getting Chief because there are better ways to gain more profit than they would if they included Chief and also without having to advertise a rival system. And I just noticed you used idiotic in your previous post too. You should understand where people are coming from when saying Chief isn’t happening or isn’t likely and that is due to the fact that he is the pure definition of a pipe dream. Moreso than Cloud. You shouldn’t use words like idiotic only to describe detractors to master Chief specifically because then it just looks like you are doing it because you want him in and nothing else
It wasn't you, it was somebody on Twitter who said MICROSOFT wouldn't want to use him
I know you were pointing out someone saying Microsoft wouldn’t let Nintendo use him. I only explained my reasoning because I thought you were claiming I was idiotic. But the point still stands. Name calling really shouldn’t be used in terms of smash spec. Calling someone’s argument something to such an extent, perhaps but only if it really doesn’t make sense.
The funny part is; I thought of that quote for if Xbox made its own Smash Bros style crossover game.
They gave away Banjo, and there is Killer Instinct that works as kinda like Xbox roster fighter. This is why I now rather support Chief's inclusion. They better go all in.
Is that guy credible?
He's the unofficial translator guy so yeah
If either Sakurai or 343 wanted it to happen, I don't see why not. Gamefreak gave Sakurai the design for Greninja before he was even officially revealed, after all.
Well. Pokemon is Nintendo franchise, so that makes communication easier. Is there any other third party that allowed future content that might've spoiled their future games?
Closest would be Metal Gear having stuff that alluded to MGS4 back in Brawl.
