and they are getting spirits? maybe it's me but i know final fantasy and dragon quest were expansive to get representation meanwhile the former gets the stick in the mud. is the mana series something that isn't all to difficult to use?
i think mana is a bit more of a niche franchise, with only about three games and one of them only just coming outside of japan shortly before its remake a few months ago, so it probably is easier to use than FF and DQ
i dont think peachette was an event mind you

She was in an event with other main star female characters(or well known female characters such as Amy)
but not a game specific event?

No, just there during a random event, similar to Lotus.
lotus? oh right that

BrawlFan1 came up with an moveset for King Boo. Thought I'd share it here.

Not gonna lie, I'm a bit bummed this got no likes.King Boo isnt the same as Boo- but Boo could even be an echo of Jiggs.
its probably cause no one wants king boo as a jigglypuff echo

So the LM3 dlc came and went with no spirit event. And the Halloween theory is nonsense because the game actually released on Halloween. So either they'll randomly drop a LM3 event for no reason half a year after the release or King Boo is in.

really it was just a joke, personally i would quite like an origami king even come julyPaper Mario isn't out yet. Why would we expect a spirit event before release? If you're saying there might not be one when it does come out then I'm not really sure what your point is considering that's true for every Nintendo game.
Sorry, I forgot to make that a replyfogbadge

Oh, okay that makes more sense. I think honestly that Paper Mario would be really hard to market as dlc anyway. To long time Nintendo fans there are a ton of obvious differences between him and regular Mario, but to the casual it's like "wait another Mario? Is this a costume or something?"

Reminder to use smilies when joking, intent is hard to read online with only text. 
That being said, it's not common for a spirit event to coincide perfectly with the game it promotes (like Trials of Mana's did), so I wouldn't be shocked if one for Origami King wouldn't come until after Summer.
At any rate, there probably isn't any hurry to upgrade that version of Mario into playable yet anyway, as long as there's still some noteworthy regular Mario characters to use.

They wouldn't be ones to talk.

That's the thing though. Dr. Mario is a clone. To a casual gamer who has never heard of paper Mario, it would be underwhelming and confusing. To be honest, I do want to see paper Mario playable one day, I just think the dlc would be a hard sell to a lot of uninformed people.Reminder to use smilies when joking, intent is hard to read online with only text.

A lot of characters are a hard sell to uninformed people. PM is barely that much different in this sense (especially since it's goshdarn Mario, anything directly featuring him would sell like hotcakes even if he could wind up being the only one to have downloadable alts at some point).
Besides, I'm fairly certain that like with
, they'd make sure to release a related game first so that folks are more or less familiarised with the character.Oh, and nowadays Sak explains wherever a character came from. If he can sum up the whole history of the Neo Geo just to sell new players on the concept of
, then surely having to present a flat 2D version of Mario is no less of an issue.Only reason why Paper Mario could only get a spirit event this time is if they decide to focus on other series in the meantime, nothing more than that.

maybe but there does seem to be a couple dlc characters who were in the more risky area, terry a character whos popularity was not as far spread as others and byleth who is a character that represents things that people think are over represented

There's a joke to be made about King Boo and spirits not standing in his way but I don't know how to word it

you'd be surprised just how popular ring fit adventure actually is. It is consistently soldout, though that is partially due to the virus, I'd imagine.

it's too bad they have spirits in the game right now, though nintendo could still put the ring fit adventurer in.

I support, i want more spooky lads in smash.
I'd say Gengar would be a pretty good fit for this role aswell but another gen 1 pokemon ? I don't know about that chief.
Get me Luigi's hotel as a stage and you have yourself a deal, Mr Sakuman.
