Imagine Sakurai going on to say "Blaze Fielding is too hot for Smash" and going with Axel instead for that reason.
They’d go with axel for the SOR Character anyway. He is easily the most iconic and the closest thing it has to a mascot. That’s unless I am missing something. Not that I think we’re getting a SOR character. I doubt Sega is getting a new character and even if it was why not puyo puyo or yakuza.

Finally. Image uploader is working. Anyway this is my dream pass. What do you all think? Would you be happy with this pass?

Overall a nice pass, but Phoenix is still sorta Lame, IMO, when capcom could also offer characters like Dante, Monster Hunter, Morrigan, Amaterasu, M. Bison, Chun-Li, etc.

Agumon is cool and all, but Greymon or Wargreymon would probably be cooler.

The solution of course is to add every Capcom character ever, then we get everyone satisfied

All those picks are really cool!

If I had to make Fighter Pass 2 (without most wanted picks since I got everyone I hoped for already in), I may make it go like this:

>2B
>Travis Touchdown
>Crash/Rayman
>Master Chief/Gordon Freeman
>Sol Badguy
>Steve

If Street Fighter (or a different third party series) had as many characters as the Super Mario (8 characters and 1 Echo Fighter), Pokémon (10 characters), or Fire Emblem (6 characters and 2 echo fighters) series, who would you pick and why?

For Street Fighter, I'd go with what Fire Emblem's got:
Ryu
Ken (Σ)
Akuma (Σ)
Chun-Li
M. Bison
Guile
Zangief
Menat

This covers the big names of the series, adds some important characters, and throws in a completely unique character just for fun. I didn't add Sakura or Segat because I felt that since Ryu, Ken, and Akuma all have the same moveset it would be imperative that the rest of the characters don't even remotely resemble the shotos to avoid "most of the characters are just Ryu" complaints.
Castlvania

Simon (with Trevor and Gabriel as alternate costumes)
Richter (Σ) (with Julius and Leon as alternate costumes)
Cypha Belnades (with a Maria Renard alternate costume)
Alucard (with a Genya Arikado alternate costume and one alternate based on his LoS appearance)
Shanoa (I wanna give her a Miriam alternate costume but I don't think that's realistically possible)
Soma Cruz
Dracula
Death

Sonic

Sonic
Shadow (Σ)
Tails
Knuckles
Eggman
Amy
Blaze (debating on wether her or Vector)
Silver

Mega Man

Mega Man
X
Zero
Proto Man
Sigma
Bass
Mega Man.exe
Mega Man Volnutt

Honestly, if all those Capcom characters were owned by different companies, and the FP was made up entirely of those characters, nobody would even think about complaining.
Capcom is THAT amazing when it comes to characters.

Claps THANK YOU.

imagine also opening the pass ON a Spirit Promotion - the fact also that Elma’s Spirit Battle uses Bayonetta can’t be coincidence
rie

I've been in the Elma thread for a long time

You know I support her and will always be Elma Gang for life

but this Bayonetta thing means very little and even if it did there's like. no chance its ****ing elma

It's why MvC is some fun **** to watch. Niitsuma leaving Capcom makes me so ****ing sad because UMVC3 is one of the most fun games to watch

Capcom is a treasure trove of IPs, and would be the one company I wouldn't at all mind having more than one character per pass.

So besides 2B, Dante and Elma who else could be modeled off Bayonetta? Ideas?

I myself personally want Amaterasu or Phoenix Wright for Season Pass 2. Latter seems more likely and would love for him especially given I've recently became a fan of the series.

Capcom more then earns lot of representation in Smash for that reason along with its reputation and popularity. The only video game company that has as much IPs as Nintendo and more the reason Nintendo vs. Capcom should really be an reality.

Except highly-produced DLC showcases like Joker's.
Joker was a special young man who wields a gun
Other than an accurate depiction of Ridley.
...damn I should’ve expected that one
Except decent online, character interactions like every other fighting game and proper characterization for a ****ton of characters in the game
Guidances, Codecs, and SSE/WoL are close enough...online you got me there

Character base models are often used for their general body/skeleton type or other special properties. Ring Fit Adventurer could use disembodied limbs in her attacks from what I hear, and Velvet Crowe both is combo-heavy and would be good to have Bayo as a base just based on how she moves. Blaze Felding is one of the two main characters of Streets of Rage, though outside of Streets of Rage 4 finally coming out this year it doesn't make much sense as to why she would get in over Puyo Puyo or Yakuza.

Again I really do think this is just a coincidence and not anything that will lead to a hint, but it is fun to consider.

I think that this whole Bayonetta thing means very little, but I guess Velvet could also be a contender, though assuming this is actually pointing towards someone my bets are on 2B.
Kinda feel like Velvet is more likely to use Corrin as a base but that’s just me

You know what? Why not? If they do Fighter Pass 3 with the 4 more potential WOL slots, it might as well just be a Capcom pass featuring Dante from Devil May Cry along with Phoenix Wright, Amaterasu and Arthur from Ghouls n Ghosts.

Didn't we already do the song and dance of certain glitches in the game pertaining to an upcoming character, only for those final characters to actually be based off of completely different fighters and the glitches in question were irrelevant for the actual new fighters?

That.

That I could not argue against.

The Bayo thing probably doesn't mean nothing. And if it's even a hint for DLC we don't know if the character based on Bayonetta will be FP6. I don't believe it means something but it's fun to speculate wisely.

That said, I think 2B fits very well. If I'm not mistaken 2B is a tall girl, and his walking animation is very similar to Bayo's lol

Chun-li Bayo based. Those legs. Those combos.
I like Chun-Li a lot but I think it would be painfully funny to have a 3rd SF character before a Capcom rep from another of their franchises

Why does everyone keep forgetting?

"Smash is for good boys and girls".

Look at Velvet's attire. All torn up and skin exposure. How can that be censored?

Mii Swordfighter and Duck Hunt were pretty good coincidences

It's an outfit that starts as a normal villager outfit that gets rotted away after some story stuff. Just tatter it less. She's wearing about the same amount as ZSS's swimsuit attire and isn't even wearing a skirt, which is CERO's big hang-up anyway.

CERO only has a bone to pick with pantyshots and sideboob - which is why Mai didn’t even get so much as a Spirit

I suppose that works. Gotta cover her breasts for that matter too if that's the case.

Alright, under the assumption that FP2 has no Capcom characters, this is what my dream Capcom Fighter Pass would be.

1: Dante (Devil May Cry)
2: Arthur (Ghosts N Goblins)
3: Phoenix Wright (Ace Attorney)
4: Nemesis (Resident Evil)
And to cap (heh) it off with a pipe dream.
5: Asura (Asura's Wrath)

I may as well pitch in.

1. Amaterasu (Okami)
2. Phoenix Wright (Ace Attorney)
3. Nemesis (Resident Evil)
4. Asura (Asura's Wrath)
5. Dante (Devil May Cry)

Great taste we're quite alike.
