Official Newcomer/DLC Speculation Discussion

...ProJared’s still relevant?

Sadly yeah. He did a bounce back.

 

[Gentlepanda]

I guess I‘ll say that I don’t think the video being taken down means too much, as the YouTube copyright system is easy to manipulate and Nintendo could have very well been reported a mod video and took it down because of that, but honestly I don’t really have much of an opinion either way.

I wasn’t planning on watching TGA anyway. My actual plan is to fly over to where they’re being hosted and threaten Geoff until he reveals the 5th character live on-stream.

wrestle with geoff, prepare for death

Didn't he apparently provide evidence for his case, regarding the controversy that was surrounding him?

 

[GoodGrief741]

According to my source, a different one from the one who leaked Pepsi Man, Reggie will rip Geoff apart in half live on stage and then finally free Fighter #5 who was imprisoned inside Geoff.
I dunno, I don't believe it personally because it contradicts my other source(Pepsi Man cannot be sealed within a prison of flesh as shown in Chapter 4 of Pepsi Man: Coke's Revenge which would mean FP5 is someone else) but who knows.

Wait what??

*reads script* oh **** I gotta get outta here

This is the most Metal ****ing thing I've read in a while holy ****.

i think the main conclusion in the end was less that one side is innocent and more that both sides are kinda ****ty

A quick glance at the KOS-MOS thread, and the consensus is pretty much "Neat coincidence; keep your expectations in check". Y'all are clowning on the wrong fandom. Like every support group, they have their reasons for why they think she has a shot. Unlike every support group, she's currently a character who is in the spotlight for whatever reasons (with rumors of a possible long awaited remake). This is a speculation thread, so of course people are going to point out "evidence" for why a character may or may not be the next one.

It's not a competition. It's not a pity party. It's about celebrating cool video game characters in a fun party fighter and figuring out who might be in it and why.

Back from the dead that is the conversations of leaks which I have fully ignored. Just wanted to say that I advocate the idea of more dual characters like that being said, I'm also in favor of the idea of Pluse and Minum in Smash. The only other Electric Pokemon is LITERALLY Pikachu (I mean...it's literally pre-evolved Pikachu.) So, more electric types doesn't sound too bad. (Course I'm also in favor of Zeraora and possibly Electrive.) Also in favor of Captain Toad & Toadette coming up as a team. I don't really see Toadette as an echo fighter...just seems fair for both of them to be present on the roster.

While I don't like Bandana Waddle Dee, I kinda like the idea of getting a group of waddle dees (maybe a team of 4) working together as a single fighter (regular, or maybe the Waddle Dee reporter crew from the twitter page, who I hope will be introduced in the games' canon soon because they're awesome).
I prefer the Waddle Dees to be represented as a "crowd" and not as a single entity, and I prefer them being funny/clumsy like they are most of the times, than depicted as a warrior.

Spoiler

If not Waddle Dee, then why not use this concept on a third party character like Lemmings?

Imo Toad and Toadette should be skins of the same character like the Koopalings. Imo, the character should be just Toad, but contain Captain Toad references in the moveset along with moves inspired by other games and other material. The captain suit can be a skin for both Toad and Toadette. This is what should have happend for Doctor Mario too if you ask me.

Adeleine & Ribbon would be a duo character as well, but I think they would be more like Duck Hunt or Banjo & Kazooie, depsite being a duo, the characters aren't really separated.

Anyway, other than Ice Climbers, we have Rosalina & Luma and Pikmin & Olimar; the "minions" aren't fully featured characters like Popo & Nana are, but it's still a case of multiple playable characters at once.
I can see the concept of Olimar being adapted to a character like Pauline, if they bother to let her reference the Mario vs DK series and summon her personal army of Mini Toys.

Yeah, don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to be mean at all but seeing "I think it's legitimate" by a KOS-MOS avatar and signature seems expected.

I'm going to a job fair, followed by work (though that's a tutoring session that lasts less than an hour). That will keep me busy until 5, at least. Don't know what I'll do for the next few hours; maybe I'll start the Resident Evil 2 remake, so I can get an idea of why it's nominated for so many awards and why it outsold the original version of RE2 in a much shorter timespan.

Or I could look up Smash speculation to get an idea of who people think the fifth Fighters Pass character will be, and look into their games if I'm not familiar with them.

I just dont see any relationship between Nintendo of America and Nintendo. Seems like they both strike things.

they will be succeeded by their lesser known cousins, the **** brothers

While I wouldn't be surprised, just by what I was hearing, according to some people, was, aside from the ones who were saying he pulled a concrete "NO U", that he apparently provided evidence for why some of the more "bad" stuff was not true or being twisted.
But that's just more from a hearing point rather than actual knowledge of the situation.

>BrawlBRSTMs3x

Nah my friends, BrawlBRSTMs3x and copyright claim are like a daily thing for this channel. Happens all the time, and all the songs, a while ago people though Geno was comming because SMRPG music got claimed, but we found out that more musics got claimed.

Not saying that KOSMOS isn't coming, but that channel and copyright strike is just a daily routine

Honestly, people gotta stop clowning on fan bases in general.

Considering how Smash's fandom is, I know that's asking way too much, though.

Who’s ready to Play as CJ on the Spirit Tracks stage? I know I am.

Fail an exam on Conflict and Conflict Resolution.

Well finals are done I'm now going to go home and take a nap. Wake me if anything happens.

 

[Deleted member]

who the **** are you to judge whether or not something is canon?
ugh, just like a meat beat stan

Reminder that game had Coke Dude and Coke Dude Zero existing simultaneously which should be literally impossible but go off I guess

No, he just cried "cancel culture".

This song is already in Smash Bros though. Also Xenoblade Chronicles is getting a remake so even if it is legit, it could be for that instead.

Studying for finals. Reminding @punished faygo to hydrate

 

[Johans Nidorino]

The next tournament theme is so fitting for an 80s character reveal and an immediate update of its art.

I don't know, it's either going to be Ryu Hayabusa or another thing as legendary. Like Taito stuff?

I have never played a Xeno Saga game and have been watching vids on it all day. KOS MOS looks like shed have an absolutely killer moveset.

also this slaps

This Banjo-head is keeping his fingers crossed for you guys

 

[ZenythSmash]

Oh I didn’t even know he posted tbh. Calm down

hell, i even forgot that i muted him too.

But to be serious for a moment. With the VGAs less than a day away. I just wanted everyone to know that everything is going to be alright if your pick doesn't get in. You don't have to like the character. But let's not put people down who get excited for said character. The VGAs isn't going to be the end of the world for your character pick.

tell /v/, its swarm of discord trolls, and FAQS that, hah.

 

[Barrubo]

Still hoping for Reimu but at this point I should might as well wait for the next pass.

 

[Jibblypuff_]

I mean, if we're going to get another Xeno character, I think we should at least get one from the superior game.
