Official Newcomer/DLC Speculation Discussion

[Night Gale]

The more you know.

 

[SMAASH! Puppy]

Fair enough, but Pullum is just discount Rouge.

Spoiler: Image

Normally I don't like provocative designs (and I'm sure she doesn't have proportions quite like this in Power Stone), but I actually really like this one for some reason. I think it's the colors. Also, I have a question:


Does she have a brother named Pushum?

EDIT: I misread this and thought the character's name was Pullum and Rogue was the character the other person was referring to. I knew the design was from Power Stone, I just don't know the characters by name (other than Edward Falcon).

So, dry of no new leaks.... Ugh.....
Still having a feeling that a playable Tales of rep would be announced alongside Kos-mos.

So if we get a playable Tales of rep along with a stage, but no spirit board, does it possibly mean that licensing issues may with the artwork used in the Tales of series may had prevented a Tales of series themed spirit board from happening?

 

[KillerCage]

I realized something.

WE DON'T HAVE ANY METAL GEAR RISING MUSIC!

Hands down, this is the best song of the soundtrack.

 

[SMAASH! Puppy]

Spoiler: Media

Which is a shame. I really want to see a perfectly timed Timber with this song playing in the background.

 

[Evil Trapezium]

If Namco-Bandai got a second character, who would you want it to be (not necessarily who you think is likely), and why?

Easy question! No doubt in my mind it would be Sergeant Corteh-

Oh right, Namco. Well for me it's a toss up between Klonoa and Jin Kazama.

Klonoa because he has a Pac-Man hat and it just makes me think of him as Pac-Man's Luigi.

Jin Kazama because he'd be a powerful brawler type character who has the Devil Gene to mix it up.

And yet we have spirits from the game, including Gray Fox who's actually Raiden wearing the Gray Fox DLC costume.

 

[Al-kīmiyā']

One word: WHIP. SWORD. Also some magic I don't care about as much, and she looks cool.

 

[AceAttorney9000]

I realized something.

If we're getting any DLC music packs, my absolute top wish for that would be a Metal Gear Rising pack (especially if they can keep the lyrics).

Other packs I'd love to see...

• Final Fantasy music pack
• Dragon Quest music pack
• Paper Mario music pack
• Octopath Traveler music pack
• Astral Chain music pack
• Monster Hunter music pack
• Warriors Orochi music pack

 

[DarthEnderX]

They literally had an entire apology for Travis not being DLC on a livestream from what I can tell.

It’d be a huge reach to believe that they lied at this point.

I highly doubt it. The way Suda was with the no Travis thing seems like a hard deconfirm.

The bosses in NMH4 should all be parodies of characters in Smash!

Homura has been leaked as FP5.

You misread it. Nomura has been leaked as FP5. All characters are getting a new alt covered in belts and zippers.

I'd buy music packs over Mii costumes any day. I don't know if Nihon Falcom is getting in 100%, but a company like that makes good music and can use the exposure; it'd be a great consolation prize.

I don't think music packs actually give exposure though.

Smash has lots of tracks where I know nothing about the game its from, and aren't inspired to learn more. But a Mii Costume is a CHARACTER. And that will always pique my curiosity.

 

[Night Gale]

That Fire Emblem parody fight would be so f***ing good.

 

[Mamboo07]

That Fire Emblem parody fight would be so f***ing good.

What Fire Emblem fight?

 

[Goombaic]

Anyone still down for Pokemon talk? Felt like making another list and decided to rank Pokemon this time. There's so much potential in a lot of these Pokemon as full-fledged fighters.

I honestly wouldn't object a fighter pass of just Pokemon.

 

[Night Gale]

What Fire Emblem fight?

A hypothetical No More Heroes Fire Emblem parody boss battle.

 

[Dark Bagel]

She doesn't have wind powers though. Just hotness.

Speaking of hotness, prepare yourself for this hot take:

If Shantae was a Pokemon, Rouge from Power Stone would be her evolution.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

I take it were still dry, eh?

DEAD ON

Actually playing the game helps pass the time you know?

 

[Barrubo]

There is a Touhou anime but it was fanmade(?) and only had one episode.

Oh no if your talking about that Phantasm of Memories one then that anime has 13 episodes. The English subtitles just came out recently.

 

[Deleted member]

You misread it. Nomura has been leaked as FP5. All characters are getting a new alt covered in belts and zippers.

I'd be okay with this just because I'd love to see how Mr. Game & Watch or Piranha Plant would look.

 

[Schnee117]

Imagine being a Smashboards user and actually playing Smash Bros.

 

[Wigglerman]

TF is a Smash Brothers. TF is this place!? HOW DID I GET HERE!? WHO ARE YOU PEOPLE!?

 

[Deleted member]

At this rate, we're figuratively crawling over the tiny scraps of information, including fake 4chan leaks at this point.

Personally my most wanted 8 gen character would be Intelleon. He's not my favorite design, but I think Sakurai could make really good use of his spy theme (just like he make genius usage of Incineroar wrestler theme).

Gengar is a must.

Do they come in the same pass as Mario2?

Eh, I don't know. I think Inteleon would turn out nearly exactly like Greninja if anything because to me spies are modern ninjas.

 

[CapitaineCrash]

Eh, I don't know. I think Inteleon would turn out nearly exactly like Greninja if anything because to me spies are modern ninjas.

Greninja is more combo based and have more physical moves. I imagine Intelleon being more a zoner. He also use his tail like a knife to attack at long range.

 

[KillerCage]

I just remembered: there was another indie character that survived Vergeben's massacre.

Spoiler: Yes, his game came to the Nintendo Switch.

 

[Deleted member]

You guys think sakurai would count to 100?

 

[SMAASH! Puppy]

A beat 'em up character? How boring! His moveset would literally be a copy-paste.

...I hate this argument so much I wanna punch myself for even making the joke.

 

[Goombaic]

I can see Inteleon being more range based by primarily attacking with sniper shots and what not, but I think the similarities to Greninja would still be there. At most, I believe Inteleon would be to Greninja what Falco is to Fox, does that make sense?

You do realize that Dust: an Elysian Tail is a metroidvania game?
If Dust were to get into Smash, he would be a trio character like Duck Hunt: Dust himself, his sword Ahrah, and his nimbat companion Fidget.

 

[MooMew64]

Imagine being a Smashboards user and actually playing Smash Bros.

I do play it.

I boot it up to the CSS and stare at it.

Isn't that the game?

Could've fooled me. I think he'd be cool regardless of the genre though. I just don't know much about Dust: An Elysian Tale.

Also, if Sonic from Sonic and the Black Knight became the next fighter, would he be considered a duo fighter since his sword is sapient?

 

[greenluigiman2]

Has anything major come to light since The Game Awards? I haven't been paying attention to leaks/speculation.

Nope. Interestingly enough, Nintendo has been busy doing stuff lately, it's just nothing Smash related.

Wrong. You're supposed to look at the title screen when a new character is added and see if there's a new company credited.

Nope.
My mission to revive discussion using Dust: an Elysian Tail was a bust.

Dust is just discount Muramasa The Demon Blade

 

[KillerCage]

Dust is just discount Muramasa The Demon Blade

RUDE!
Dust was made by one guy and the fact the game's look and feel is as good as Muramasa is incredible.

And both games are fun by the way!
