I did and I think it is around page 218.
Sakurai loves secretism and to impress fans, so I wouldn't be surprised if he is actually working on more DLC characters right now and the total absence of Isaac is still pretty suspicious, so what I hope is that the guys at Project M release Isaac for PAL, I download it, then Sakurai reveals Isaac as a DLC newcomer, Project M removes Isaac and then I have Isaac in all 3 Smashes (SSB4, Project M and SSF2).
Thanks for clearing that up.
I don't think they'll remove Isaac after he's added, I just think they'd not finish him if Isaac was announced before he was finished.
Wait please clarify, how do you know that P:M and SSF2 would consider adding him?
Just because GS has lost some popularity doesn't mean it has lost its past sales. It is still bigger than Xenoblade.
Yea Nintendo has made tons of conflicting statements itself. DLC is now a thing and I doubt Nintendo will back off now. After all Smash is Nintendo's game, Sakurai is just the head of development.
Yea Nintendo and Camelot are both to blame for GS's current situation. Camelot was hesitant before and Nintendo is hesitant now. So far.
Project M team is already working on Isaac.
SSF2 ALREADY added him. And Isaac was leaked for Project: M, though they've had problems with leaks in the past. Originally Sami got leaked, and they supposedly "cut" her because of the leak. I don't think they'll do that in this case, though.
Someone else brought up a good point in a group chat I'm in. Sakurai is probably trying to dance around the subject of DLC right now because he doesn't want to imply that DLC was planned before release, and so it doesn't seem like content from the game was cut to be sold separately later. I don't expect a DLC announcement until February at least, which I've stated elsewhere before.
As I said, she was "supposedly" cut.
True, but that does effect the potential of its exposure.
Wait who's Sami? You mean Saki Amamiya? She's a guy..
Sami from Advance Wars. The girl with the ginger bob cut and tank top.
I thought the main point we were talking about was the size of the franchise.

Right. Just clearing it up, you didn't say they didn't actually cut her or anything.
.......I knew I would screw up my wording, just forget I said anything for the past 3 hours.I thought the main point we were talking about was the size of the franchise.
We already know Xenoblade is getting much more exposure.
Apparently not. They're also doing it for Lyn. Possibly Ridley too.
Lyn really? That's good. It would be awesome if I had a match with Isaac, Saki, Shadow, and Lyn. Idk why but its all i want. And their Aasist trophy models don't need to be touched up at all, they're perfect the way they are, dont you think all 4 fit in perfectly?
The characters do but the AT models are lower quality than the character models, so if they want to look comparable they'd have to be touched up a bit.
And that is probably why we don't get Camelot RPGs now. Golden Sun: Dark Dawn was a good attempt but not awesome enough. I miss those days when we had an RPG like storyline in Mario Tennis and Mario Golf. I loved Mario Tennis: Power Tour!
In Brawl the only thing Isaac said was "Move".
4 words.
I'm sure they've got a list of DLC characters they are considering adding already. Its just a matter of "we have to determine if its worthwhile yet," which honestly I'm positive can and will happen.
Agreed.
I disagree, I think its very possible for Sakurai to work on a couple other characters for Spring. If they're returning vets or semiclones, they could probably be completed to coincide with Mewtwo. On the other hand, it is possible they might wait for Mewtwo to be released as full DLC before releasing characters, so I can see that as a possibility as well. Maybe announce an expansion pack at E3.
Well, there is a specific point where if you put too many people on one thing it becomes a convoluted mess. I could see it being plausible, but I highly doubt they'd keep the team together that long just for one character.
Really? When was that?
I have a hard time picturing GS4 releasing around the same time as the Smash DLC to be honest. RPGs take a lot more time to develop than sports games. Camelot didn't put anything out a full two years before DD released, excluding a New Play Control version of their tennis game. And as it stands now they just had the golf game release earlier this year.
Agreed, but they could do a promotional for GS after its announced. If GS4 is in development, it would likely be announced by E3. However, the game could possibly be a bit quicker, because they may have done some work on it on-and-off before, and they may have some help from another developer. GS4 would probably be a 2016 release if its in development now.
Yup. He specifically mentioned the word "paid".
Yeah that seems possible if not kind of a stretch.
All they need to do is market it properly like with Fire Emblem: Awakening. Do that and it will sell well. And they do need to make it better than GS3.
I think they were, however I still think that GS4 was probably planned before GS1 was re-released. Granted, they may have been like "ok, we're doing GS4 right after Mario Golf: World Tour, let's see how much interest is there. We'll release GS1 and see how well it sells. If it sells well, we'll allot a higher budget to GS4." Or something like that.
Planned maybe, but I think it was actually one step back and the GS VC reception might have been the green or red light to move into actual production or to halt the rough project.
