TGA just basically hinted at another Smash reveal. I think it will be Crash.
"But Crash is disconfirmed for Fighter 5," you say?
I agree. I think we'll get a Nintendo Direct soon due to the blue dot on the Smash YouTube page. That will reveal Fighter 5. And Crash will open up Pass 2. With a Coco Echo.
I'm thinking Dante or Jill/Leon if its fighter 5 and I would include 2B as possibility if its the first post Fighter pass character. Those characters are from series that have presence in the awards after all and at least DMC and RE are some of the biggest contenders this year.

Warning, a swear gets used
There was a problem fetching the tweet

Seeing GG fans go wild about a trailer before they get to the new parts makes me want to see how people would react to Sol in Smash
Oh dear...I'd love to be part of that ocean...

Well you have till "late 2020" until it comes out, and possibly even longer if they don't port it to a Nintendo console considering Xrd still isn't on Switch.
Oh...my bad. Guess I'm sticking to Central Fiction instead (-.-||)

If GG Strive gets to Switch I'm gonna reconsider my Christmas wishlist.
Dragon Ball Fighterz is the same thing but with Dragon Ball characters. So it's got a superior roster. :p
Frieza/Hit/Vegito main here.
It's kinda like how Injustice is Mortal Kombat with DC characters. Batman main. Never played Injustice 2 since it didn't get a PC version.

But does DBFZ have Freddie Mercury beat the **** out of a doctor with a bag on his head?

Well no, not at all.
Not... not even remotely.
DBFZ and GG community don't overlap much.

Especially considering GG4 is going to be much slower and neutral heavy than either Xrd or DBFZ.

No game where half the roster is Goku variants and non-canon movie characters can claim to be superior to anything.
Better than Xenoverse.
And to be fair, it was all canon characters (except Android 21, obviously) at first. All the movie and GT characters are DLC.

Sorry, but I’d take a game where I can play as a paper bag wearing doctor with an oversized scalpel and toon logic any day over a DBZ fighting game.

This complaint is super overblown.
Every single Goku plays differently enough to the point they're all at different tiers and have their own pros and cons and personality-wise, only 3 are the archetypal "Gokus" people know and love.

And adding on top of that, who cares if a character is "canon" or not? They're well-liked and have unique movesets. You think either FGC or DBZ fans care that a character is canon or not? Hell no, Janemba is literally one of, if not the highest requested character for DLC.

And don't even begin to spilt hairs with this "50% goku" bull that I know at least one of you is inevitably going to pull out.

I was counting the DLC as that's basically where they ruined the game.

Hey, you know what else plays differently? DIFFERENT characters. Which also have the added benefit of being DIFFERENT CHARACTERS.

It's especially annoying because ArcSys's plan was originally to NOT do that. But after people went crazy over the game's reveal, the DBZ merchandising machine basically stepped in and started dictating what they had to add to the game.

>Invitation gets re-stolen.

>Carmen Sandiego proclaims her presence.
Although I really love this idea, I want a Carmen reveal to be more ridiculous like she literally steals an entire Award Show (or Direct?) or something. Like... as soon as the event is supposed to air, it starts with the camera confusingly panning an empty room in a panic. No crowd, no decorations, etc. Viewers are confused. A lone host announces that they were forced to relocate at the last minute... Yada yada cue her logo. Then Carmen gloats and proceeds to briefly hijack their airtime, too. Then they try to find her. She turns out to be in the last place they'd look: Smash. Cue trailer. Cut back to Award Show (or Direct).

For the people at the event (assuming they don't show it in a Direct), I guess they can cut the lights off and try to make it immersive for them as possible. IDK.

Three words and a photo

Cassandra be like:

Fixed that for ya. :secretkpop:

Simple, he's the quintessential Tales protag, though others are quite popular as well.
This is fair enough. I didn't play any Smash prior to Ult. so I didn't know his Mii costume was either a thing or talking point. I've also not played Symphonia, only others in the franchise.
I'm a guy.
Sorry, allow me to rephrase. No P5R talk please, ladies.

Sony listed in a Smash Ultimate event due to be hosted on the 22nd (this Friday!) and tweeted it out by Sakurai. Let the speculation commence.

Also apologies for double post.

Kratos for Smash?
Would certainly break the internet. Moreso even than Banjo.

My immediate thoughts were Kratos if there was any fighter news. On the other hand I would lowkey love Sony Spider-Man in Smash but that'll never happen lol.

It doesn't matter as most companies involved aren't even gaming companies this time around

Could this mean. . . has his time finally come?! Is it all ogre? Will Shrek finally make it?!


Ah, alright. So much for that, then.

So that would be totally out of blue. What makes Sony cooperate with Nintendo like this all of sudden? And would this be "Mario on Playstation"?
