Is King Zell the same person who leaked Banjo? I recall it being someone from Reset Era.

Shinobi actually. IIRC King Zell's leaks were about Pokémon games, a N64 Mini that never happened and a new Monster Hunter on Switch.

Thank you all for letting me know Shinobi leaked Banjo for Smash on Resetera.

What's this about a "King Zell"? Was there another leak I missed?

Good morning.

Apparently there were some rumors of some Halo content and MC.

That leak is vague as ****. I mean, he would have said if he were DLC if he could. Or maybe post-pass, maybe just his games coming to Switch.

But one thing is certain: screw your confirmation bias. Niche character is frontrunner, everyone whines. Major character is frontrunner, everyone hypes and dismisses niche character.

When will you all learn the value of open-mindedness?

Pretty sure that was proven fake weeks ago.

Why would Sakurai add such an obscure character? It’s leak bait.

How could it be fake though? This Nintendo guy's never been wrong about Smash before. They leaked Ryu and Roy for Smash 4, Castlevania for Ultimate, and Hero's codename for DLC. Their track record is spotless.

They also leaked Dragon Quest’s spirits.

Zell is one of the most consistent insiders on Era. He hinted at Halo stuff coming to Switch a few hours ago. Whether that has anything to do with Smash remains to be seen.

Probably just lucky guesses.

"People want character they want; usually dismiss character they don't"

Whoa, this is big news! Are you also a leaker?

What does Sony have that comes even half as close as Halo in terms of history?

That doesn't have any relation to the 'question', I think. This is about reaching or surpassing the hype Chief would generate, and obviously a Sony rep could do that for obvious reasons.

As far as I know, Zell has never been wrong.

I find it hard to believe Halo would come to Switch before the Rare games, but we live in a brave new world with Microsoft/Nintendo collaborations.

I don't think MCC on Switch means Master Chief is getting in though.

What I meant isn't "Woah you guys an Xbox character" but rather "WE GONNA TURN SMASH INTO THE NEW HALO 3 ONLIME FELLAS"

I get that.
Halo is big, but it is specially in USA. From my experience I would say that in Europe God of War and Uncharted are arguably as big and followed as Halo, for example. Same for Gran Turismo back then.
At least that's my perception.

Admittedly, there isn't one. Uncharted and God of War are great franchises and important ones in their own way, but in terms of history, none of them can beat Halo.

But a pure Sony rep would be gigantic due to how surprising it will be. It won't just be a "Wow! He's in", it will be a "HOLY ****, THEY ACTUALLY DID IT". Chief will be that if he makes it in, and a pure Sony rep like Kratos or to a lesser extent Nathan Drake, will do the same.
