I would unironically main the absolute hell out of Uncle Phil
You'll be happy to know that based off of Raven's voicelines, it's extremely unlikely that they're going with her TTG incarnation.
I mean...it's a live service game. All of these newly leaked characters are likely post-launch given the timing, and it makes total sense to have updates include fan favorites. The game has been announced long enough to get a gauge of what people want.
They went with DCAU inspired DC characters and retro Looeny tunes and scooby doo characters over modern versions. If they get in the game I'm willing to bet they'll be classic versions. It's not impossible they go reboot, but I think they know their audience and plus both of the reboots have ended now so it's not like they're the current versions anyway
If this is all true, then I am beyond thrilled. PPG, Animaniacs, Johnny Bravo, Samurai Jack and Daffy? Get outta here, that's like half my wishlist!
Those of you familiar with me in the NASB threads know I'm not a big fan of stuffing multiple characters into one slot if it doesn't make sense, and the PPG have always been separate characters in fighting game appearances, so I hope the thing about them all being one fighter isn't true. Beyond the girls all having different fighting styles and specific abilities that only one of them can do, since this game has a small emphasis on teaming up characters from the same "universes" for stuff like missions, it'd mean more characters for "The Powerpuff Girls Universe" for team ups if they were all separate. If they really do make them all one unit, that's super disappointing and a waste of some good potential.
I'm hoping the same if we get the Warner siblings, but I'd be game for a Pinky and the Brain duo in that big suit wearing robot of theirs. that'd be hilarious.

On my end, I'm waiting to see if any OK K.O. characters can get in at all.
Considering that they assume you can have a giant in here like in Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom (at least the size of two Supermans in this case), it does seem like they're being more adventurous than other attempts at platform fighters.
I wouldn't mind it so much with The Warners even if I'd probably prefer them separate, but I seriously hope they change their mind regarding the PPG. Maybe I'll hint at it in any surveys they send my way.
I believe that this was why the Chorus Kids got cut in Smash 4. I believe that if the PPGs and the Warner siblings are in one slot they'll instead be stance characters similar to Pyra/Mythra or the Pokemon Trainer rather than like the Ice Climber.s
If you were able to play in this alpha test, then try checking your mail. I got a mail with a survey asking stuff about the game and there's a section near the end where you can pretty much put in anything there.
Will do. I tried doing it yesterday and the site crashed partway through so I never got to finish it. I guess that ended up being a lucky break since now I can give my opinions on the PPG.
bare in mind that stuff that sakurai got to work before couldnt work on the 3ds, such as the ice climbers, transformation and five pikmin at once. it's more likely that the chorus kids simply couldnt work rather than sakurai couldnt get them to work
If we had to choose one character, the lemme guess, Blossom?
I think they mean all in one slot, being selectable as alts. I would assume Blossom would be the main though.
They have the same basic skillsets yes but they also have powers unique to them (Blossom's ice breath, Bubbles' sonic scream, Buttercup being the physically strongest) and their own fighting styles (Blossom being more technical, Buttercup being more aggressive, Bubbles somewhere in between), hence the idea they could all be different classes.
Damn it, this was something I had in the back of my head to mention too and forgot! Shaggy only has one, maybe two moves that actually feel like something Shaggy would do and it doesn't feel like your actually playing as the character rather than some generic kung fu guy.
that was kind of the point, we shouldn’t expect limitations of an old console to be present of this one
Why should we expect limitations from a console that the game doesn't even releases on? I don't understand your point.
Because people asked for the meme version to be playable in Mortal Kombat for years now, so they finally found a context where they can have meme Shaggy playable without needing to be in a non-family-friendly context.
It'll be hilarious in the event that they eventually get around to Daphne. She's been kicking butt on and off for years now, so it'd be a natural fit.
This literally makes no sense. Why would the limitations of Smash 4 on the 3DS, an eight year old game on an eleven year old console that was underpowered when it came out, be a factor at all for a brand new game that's releasing on modern hardware?
If Sakurai, a game developer with 30+ years of experience, couldn't get a 3-in-1 fighter to work I don't know if anyone else could. So I believe that the Warner siblings and the PPGs would be separated into their own roster slots. PTE did this with the latter.
