You know what they say, laughter is the best medicine.
IMO Infinite was like what KoF XII was. We then got XIII which was faaarrr more stellar than XII will ever be. Infinite is an obvious beta and I hope Capcom gets their **** together to make an actual game.
They seem to love showing their fighters off when they are much more completed. Joker was only announced in the first pass, banjo and Hero were given gameplay trailers in their first appearance, and Terry was shown up extremely soon for a character that barely looked finished in his trailer. The final fighter might be in their finishing stages and be released somewhere in the holidays.

Well....
It's not a matter of "reserving" a character; they can base DLC 7 on what came before, but they can't predicate who FP5 is based on what comes after, since the Pass was locked-in before further characters decided. Not unless they switched the order, but that seems unlikely from a logistical perspective.
You know he’s on Smashboards, right? And used to be a mod, right? Just look for the Popeye Sign.Previously on Fatman (Now w/ Pictures!):

I wish I knew, Commissioner Jordan. But surely Fatman is a myth? There's enough trouble in our city, so I also avoid the leaker scene. Some call Fatman a hero, but I say he's a no good vigilante.
What's a kid like you reading the Brotham City Times for?! That sensational garbage. Anyway, you're a good kid, Rick Drayson, so a word of advice: that Fatman is bad news. He doesn't speak much, if he's even real at all, but his word is treated like gospel. There's a certain group that hang out over at old Geno's place downtown that formed a Fatman cult of some kind. Great, like we needed more vigilantes recklessly tearing up our city. It's all crazy I tell ya! Gone are the days of open and shut cases. When, if ever was Fatman right? Never, I say. Never. Don't listen to what the papers have to say, kid. This gal's been on the force almost as long as Commissioner Jordan himself.
Later that day...

And now for Part 3: I Am Fatman
Deuce?! Did you just refer to me as Deuce, Alfredo? In my own workout studio? The man they know as world renowned Fitness Instructor Deuce Payne is a charade. Deuce Payne ceased to exist the day his parents died in that drive-thru car crash. Survivors guilt caused that orphan boy to eat his weight in comfort food thrice over. He spent years developing an extreme workout regime to take all of it off. In doing so, that boy became a man who mastered the ultimate exercise routine. Unbeknownst to the rest of the world, when sped up, said exercise is also the deadliest martial art on the planet. That man may have shed the pounds, Alfredo, but the weight of his parent's death will never go away. That is why I don the Fatsuit and fight evil one calorie at a time. I am vengeance. I am chubby. I. Am. Fatman!
That's all for now, kids... Same fat time, same fat channel.
But yeah, basically, I started reading replies about some guy named Fatman, so I responded to them like a Batman parody. I'm as clueless you are, but it I got a laugh out of it at least.
I could get one tonight, considering my timezone.
TBH I'm still expecting something in early January. December 7th likely won't happen because Nintendo hasn't really lined things up like that for Ultimate so far. VGA's I could see but I'm still not completely sold on it because of the same reasoning before. I know if I was doing the reveals I'd pick one of those two dates assuming everything is ready but Nintendo seems pretty content to just do it whenever.
Nintendo’s moving so fast I wouldn’t be surprised, I’m not getting my hopes up since all the most likely candidates I don’t care for
Yeah, I gathered as much. I don't think I've seen him online, but if he's a comic book fan, he might get a kick out of that.
Yea. I feel like an old dude here being closer to 30 than 20 now.
MVC4 rumours existed since MVCI died
Well Nintendo didn't do Directs back then, or really announce much outside E3. And if it was outside E3, it'd usually just be a PR release. Though they did still make a trailer with copious amounts of Crush 40, and I remember that making the rounds. Like on IGN and Gametrailers and whatnot.
I got you fam. Your very own echo pass.
If I'm limited to five, then my Echo pass would be Shadow the Hedgehog, Ms. Pac-Man, Proto Man, Zack Fair, and Jeanne.I got you fam. Your very own echo pass.
I added Hilda and Octoling just cause.
Neither do half of the Echoes in-game but look where we are. We live in a society, Ben, our hopes don't match our inevitable disappointment.
I'm just being realistic. Dixie and Raiden (assuming MGS2) are easy as pie to convert into stupid baby clones, but an Echo pass makes no sense if they have literal months to create 5 characters on a yearly basis.Dark souls is pretty sketchy, as they have no evidence to back it up...yet.
you say that like the company's are winning to have a rep in smash
I know, I'm saying is that I wasn't under the impression that there was anymore talk about it as of late, but it totally was.

Her final smash is sueing PETA and mining cryptocurrency, she'll break the meta
More broken than Smash 4 Bayonetta and Brawl Meta Knight combined.

I don't mean to say that these characters deserve such cruel fates of being clones, because no character deserves that end of the line. I'm just presenting a scenario that's realistic and something we shouldn't be surprised about in my eyes. Obviously, since it's the DLC stage, Echoes are unlikely. Seeing people actually wanting more Echoes is just astounding though.No one does it better than Mama.
That's pretty much the main big question on who it is will be revealed if it is not Ryu Hayabusa or Doom Slayer. Even I have no idea who it will be.
I kinda expect them to make potential echos, such as Octolings, drastically different by adjusting moves and frame data. It’s like how Ken is an echo of Ryu but not really.Dixie merely holds a similar skeleton that can be worked off of Diddy, even if she has radically different abilities and moves at her disposal.
Raiden, plot-wise, is VR trained to just be Snake 2.0, even though he eventually becomes the sword-wielding crazy man cyborg ninja we see today. He could obviously be his own character, but it fits the bill just enough to pass.
Dark Samus merely holds a similar skeleton that can be worked off of Samus, even if she has radically different abilities and moves at her disposal.
Lucina, plot-wise, is disguised as Marth because she doesn't even exist when she goes back in time, even though she becomes her own fleshed-out character with a unique swordplay style Chrom taught her. She could obviously be her own character, but it fits the bill just enough to pass.
No one does it better than Mama.
Agree. They can just change some attributes to set them apart from their designated echo characters. It can range from not being too unique (Samus and DS) to completely unique (Ryu and Ken).
Ben Holt
In other words, making echoes is easier done when making additional content. One can declone them in later games, but considering the situation we're in, that is the closest thing to do. I know you're passionate about seeing them as unique characters, but honestly that's the cheapest alternative.
They take one of the coolest Metroids in Metroid and they made her a reskin for a mediocre at best smash design. My god, it makes me happy that Shadow isn’t a fighter.
