Since it was Solid Snake that's in Smash and David Hayter is hugely known for voicing him, I say they are likely to reuse or re-record David Hayter. There will be some eyebrow raising if they used Keifer Sutherland. I don't mind Keifer, but David Hayter fits the iconic clone of Big Boss.
Unlikely, but not impossible. I cannot tell at this point how Metal Gear is going to be handled.

I think they'd bring back Hayter if only because I doubt they'd want to have to shell out the amount Kiefer Sutherland would require for a game not even germane to the franchise.
Thank you so much to all the fans for your support & feedback we have gotten around Super Bomberman R! Guess who is free coming soon next! pic.twitter.com/DGxJKv7SqM

This is straight up La Li Lu Le Lo level of conspiracy right here. You're one of The Patriots aren't you??
Sure, the outfits look great. And a Snake one would be perfect for the style of Bomberman using elements of overhead stealth. But something's definitely not right here. Why is this company acting so nice and acknowledging fans of their IPs suddenly? After everything they've done recently, particularly in the past two years, what convinced them to change their tune? I mean after the poor treatment of their franchises, and their employees, then shifting all their focus on mobile with microtransactions galore, and now they think they can just walk in with a nostalgic title on a Nintendo console right in the moment when momentum for it is building in the process of future games to come out on the Nintendo---
Ooooooohhh I think I get it now. What they're clearly trying to do is to get on the Nintendo community's good side to convince them not to boycott the company. At least to a lesser extent. And then once they have that positive outlook, they'll get some deals going and get Snake in Smash. And because Konami has satisfied Switch owners with better, more consumer-friendly products, it ensures people to feel less guilty that part of their money for Smash would be shared with Konami. Very sneaky. And that kind of stealth only further hints at Snake sneaking his way in.
Let's just say... it was the nanomachines.
Because they didn't get permission to bring him back. Why they didn't get permission is unknown however.
That was beautiful, all of them were really well done. Most of the calls seemed like things the devs would actually have included.
Or Nintendo doesn't benefit enough from having him in the game? I don't know he was a pretty popular character to just poof and he's gone in the blink of an eye.Because they didn't get permission to bring him back. Why they didn't get permission is unknown however.
Either Sakurai never approached Konami or Konami said no/made a bad deal for it.
Bayonetta is officially a time lord now XD. thats az far I went so far but im loving it. Its as good as Hades guidance or the fanmade Palutenas guidance.
Yeah, these are about as close as they can get to being legitimately believable. It's a damn shame that they might not ever come to fruition.
I could see something like a Smash 4.5 happening. They clearly could have been working on it for at least since Smash DLC started. With that solid 3 year development if it launches in 2018, I think there is plenty of room for new faces to appear. Also the Switch could use some extra games to really reel in all the fans. Smash is perfect for that.
Yeah, I don't figure a new Smash game is int the works quite yet and maybe at all if they want to use the Wii U version as their base platform from now on. A 2018 release sounds the best but I'm not ruling out a release this year if the leaks are to be believed. Though I hope they're fake because one stated there would only be 2 new characters (Ice Climbers and Inkling).
I'd be super down for that. I always liked the straight military style of the original Metal Gear and it would be cool to see how it would look in HD. I think everyone has tried to forget about Snake's Revenge though so that's rather unlikely.
Welcome back old friends! I was wondering when the old Snake thread members would start showing up. Two down! Let's make this another hell of a ride!
R.I.P SolidusThe voice actor for Solidus, John Cygan, died two days ago.

Loved his performance as Solidus and it's sad to see him go.

If it does then I hope that it helps Snake's chances to make it into the next Smash. I don't care for the game in the slightest but I would personally buy it if it were on the Switch just to show that I want Metal Gear in my Switch.
I always assumed that Snake's inclusion in Brawl had more to do with Kojima himself than Konami in general. He requested it. So Snake's exclusion from Smash 4, as I read it, was a combination of Nintendo's deteriorating relationship with Konami, and Kojima slowly losing control over his franchise.
But Nintendo's relationship with Konami didn't deteriorate. They reached out to make Bomberman R a thing, and lent them staff members in the process. That would've been at around the same time Smash was getting DLC. Konami itself might be crumbling, and its relationship with Kojima seems to be the stuff of terrible breakups, but with Nintendo it still appears to be rather strong.
A Belmont, Bomberman, and Snake is the dream but two of the three has a decent chance of happening and, yes, the scales do tip towards Bomberman quite heavily. I've said this many times over but Bomberman or a Belmont aren't getting without Snake coming back as well. It'd be counterproductive almost to go out of your way to get a Konami character that isn't Snake and not get Snake along with them. Snake coming back on his own without either of the two is still possible but it's looking likely Bomberman will join in meaning Snake will most likely tag along.
No kidding! Those are my favorite mains too!
