Official Newcomer/DLC Speculation Discussion

[Evil Trapezium]

Want: Jin Kazama, James Sunderland, and Sol Badguy
Don't want: Lloyd Irving, Master Chief, and 2B

Wow! Way to go! You got them all right!

 

[Cosmic77]

I'll let some other people guess after this.

Tracer
Arle Nadja
Shantae
Geno
Steve
Neku Sakuraba

Want: Tracer, Arle Nadja, Neku Sakuraba
Don't want: Shantae, Geno, Steve

Well one of mine is obvious, the others aren't so much.

Isaac
Steve
Dante
Crash
Skull Kid
Ryu Hayabusa

Want: Issac, Dante, Crash
Don't want: Steve, Skull Kid, Ryu Hayabusa

Might be tough because I'm not that active but let's try:
Ring fit adventurer
Sylux
Bandana dee
Crash Bandicoot
Amaterasu
Ty the Tasmanian tiger

Want: BWD, Crash, Amaterasu
Don't want: Ring Fit Adventurer, Sylux, Ty the Tasmanian tiger

 

[ArkSPiTFirE]

Want: Isaac, Dante, Crash
Don't want: Steve, Skull Kid, Ryu Hayabusa

Close, swap Dante and Skull Kid around and you've got it.

 

[Cosmic77]

What do you mean two of my most wanted are "Really rare requests"?

I don't see many people request Poochy and Shake King, so it's easy for me to remember that you want them.

Wow! Way to go! You got them all right!

I'm surprised. I faintly remembered you mentioning some of these characters, but I thought I'd be lucky to get 4/6.

 

[CapitaineCrash]

I'll let some other people guess after this.


Want: BWD, Crash, Amaterasu
Don't want: Ring Fit Adventurer, Sylux, Ty the Tasmanian tiger

You almost got them all wrong, the only one you're right is Amaterasu in want and Sylux in don't want. I actually want Ring fit and Ty and don't want Crash and BWD

 

[Mamboo07]

I'm surprised. I faintly remembered you mentioning some of these characters, but I thought I'd be lucky to get 4/6.

Thanks! Also you got mine right.

 

[The Rhythm Theif]

I'm back. Also, what is the usual size for a stock icon? I want to fit the Zero (Mega Man Zero) stock icon I got from Discord in my signature, but it's too big, and I can't upload pictures from my laptop into the signature either: I can only use the links. Do I need to use the Simple Image Resizer?

 

[P.Kat]

Okay, here's something that should be fun so long as people respect each other's opinions.

Select six characters for the second pass: three you really want, and three you don't want at all. Using only the knowledge other users have of you, see if they can separate the ones you want from the ones you don't want. You can make it easy or difficult depending on who you choose. If you want to make it hard, pick popular characters you don't want and unpopular characters you do want

Here's mine. Shouldn't be too difficult if you've read a few of my posts. I purposely avoided using many characters from my signature, so don't bother cheating off of that.

Wolf Link and Midna
Geno
Steve
Zacian/Zamazenta
Crash Bandicoot
Sylux

Geno
Crash
Sora
Sakura
Heihachi
Amaterasu

 

[pinshadow]

Hmm

Want:
2B
Travis
Dr.Eggman

Don't want:
Lloyd
Monokuma
Arle
?

Swap 2B and Arle.

 

[Guynamednelson]

Geno
Crash
Sora
Sakura
Heihachi
Amaterasu

Want: Sakura, Amaterasu, Sora
Don't want: Geno, Crash, Heihachi

Elma
Doom Slayer
Octoling
Nightmare
Scorpion
Neku

 

[CHAMPIONX9]

Arle would probably make me skip the fighter's pass outright, but problem is, she's already practically confirmed. Nintendo most definitely picked her. It's not really being hidden all that well.

How do you know this?

 

[Guynamednelson]

Elma
Doom Slayer
Octoling
Nightmare
Scorpion
Neku

Want: Elma, Octoling, Neku
Don't want: Doom Slayer, Nightmare, Scorpion

 

[Knight Dude]

So I've been thinking of a game here on this thread and even though we like to talk about the characters of course, we sometimes forget the stages.
So here's the game.

Choose six stages from six games you own that you would want in Smash but they have to be from one console all together.
Six stages all from Nintendo Switch games or six stages all from Game Boy for instance.

So to lead the example.
I choose Nintendo Switch.

1. Future Gadget Laboratory (Steins Gate Elite)
2. The Summit (Celeste)
3. Kingdom of Uraya (Xenoblade Chronicles 2)
4. Astral Plane (Astral Chain)
5. Shibuya Concert (Tokyo Mirage Session #FE)
6. Ancient Gardens (Mario+Rabbids Kingdom Battle)

So just thought thinking about stages would be nice with a game.

I own these titles on Gamecube soooooo......

Central Highway(Mega Man X), If that doesn't count, then Giga City(MMX Command Mission)
Planet Aether(Metroid Prime 2)
Rainbow Road(Mario Kart Double Dash)
Orre Colosseum(Pokemon Gale of Darkness)
Osthriensburg Castle(Soul Calibur 2)
Twilight Realm(Twilight Princess)

 

[Deleted member]

I feel like this game is going to have Geno on every person's list.

 

[DarthEnderX]

Want: Morrigan, Reimu, and Jill Valentine
Don't want: KOS-MOS, Arle Nadja, and Shantae

Spoiler

Morrigan, Jill, KOS-MOS and Arle are correct. Reimu and Shantae are wrong. Pretty close!

 

[Cutie Gwen]

The issue with this is that I love video games too much to think of 3 characters who I'd be against now.


Also I played a slightly overpriced gem of a game due to major discounts and I demand some spirits

This game maaaaad cute

 

[Sari]

Want: Tracer, Arle Nadja, Neku Sakuraba
Don't want: Shantae, Geno, Steve

Very close: swap Tracer with Shantae and you're good.

I know it's weird of me to want Shantae when I always trash how much her fanbase overrates her chances.

Here's a fun video that PushDustin Retweeted earlier. Basically it's predicting Season 2 with the power of Math

That’s a pretty fun rule set to make a roster out of, but his picks are WACK. Here’s what I have using that rule set:

Spoiler: Breakdown

Crash & Coco - Both - Platformer - West - 90s - New Pub - New Series

2B - Female - RPG - East - 10s - Returning Pub - New Series

Ryu Hayabusa - Male - Action - East - 80/00s - New Pub - New Series

Rex & Pyra - Both (Primarily male) - RPG - East - 10s - Returning Pub - Returning Series

Dr Eggman - Male - Platformer - East - 90s Returning Pub - Returning Series

Big Boss - Male - Stealth - East - 80s - Returning Pub - Returning Series

 

[Deleted member]

Characters we want and don't want?

Okay sounds fun.

Rex, Eggman and Big Boss you DON'T want.

(Your sig gives it away).

 

[Garteam]

I'm actually having a hard time thinking of a character I actively don't want.

I can think of a ton of characters I'm indifferent on, but dislike? Mind's blanking.

 

[SpectreJordan]

Oh I wasn’t playing that game lol

I was picking character based on the rule set in that video. The only character I don’t want there is Rex lol

I’ll play that game though! Not using characters in my signature:

Hollow Knight
Shantae
The Prince of Persia
Dovahkiin
Bandana Dee
Chun-Li

Think I'll participate. For this one I won't be including the characters I put in my dream pass from a couple or so pages ago.

Rex
Crash
Arle Nadja
Professor Layton
Bandana Dee
Jin Kazama

Alright, let's see who knows me. lol

Mike Jones
Master Chief
Crono
Dragonborn
Dimitri
Doomguy

Let me take a crack at this! Not only will I guess who you want and don't want, I'll try to explain why I think so. Just makes it more interesting.

You want
Crono - Seems obvious enough from the way you approved of Crono on my wish list. Also seeing as you're a fan of Dragon Quest, I'd figure you would have checked out Chrono Trigger since they are somewhat related.
Doomguy - I do remember you wanting Doom Guy and I remember you occasionally on the Doom thread so it's a safe bet that you're a doom fan.
Mike Jones - I'd assume you'd be a fan considering you listed a Startropics level as one of your list of stages from one console.

You don't want
Dimitri - I'm going to assume this is Dimitri from Three houses. Haven't seen you talk about him.
Dragonborn - From what I've seen you comment, you don't talk about Dragonborn much.
Master Chief - I'm going to factor this as you preferring Doom Guy.

Any I'mma head to bed...

Define "don't want". Is it neutrality or opposition? Both?

My normal picks are too obvious, so...

Rydia, Gooey, Hatsune Miku, Steve, The Prince, Spyro. My "don't"s are neutrality and not necessarily opposition, though.

Correct!

Dimitri is just a popular Fire Emblem choice, but I’ve repeatedly said how the only character I don’t want, is another Fire Emblem character. (So it’s nothing personal against him specifically)

Dragonborn would take the Bethesda spot from Doomguy. And Master Chief, is considered Doomguy’s biggest rival.

Nothing against these last two if Doomguy was in.

Here's mine. Shouldn't be too difficult if you've read a few of my posts. I purposely avoided using many characters from my signature, so don't bother cheating off of that.

Wolf Link and Midna
Geno
Steve
Zacian/Zamazenta
Crash Bandicoot
Sylux

Sounds fun, though I'm not entirely sure if by "character you don't want" you mean characters I'd hate to see or ones I'd just be ambivalent to.
Regardless, for yours I guess...

Want: Wolf Link and Midna, Zacien/Zamazenta, Sylux
Don't want: Geno, Steve, Crash Bandicoot

Given that Zamazenta is your current pfp, I'd hazard to guess you'd like them in, same for Wolf Link and Midna. Sylux is kind of an oddball pcik, but he's certainly cool so I think you'd want him. I know that most people in this thread seem to not like/care about Geno, so you most likely wouldn't want him, and since this thread is filled with contrarians (no offense), Steve and Crash are probably not very highly coveted by you.

And as for my list...

• Geno
• Wart
• Yooka and Laylee
• Crash Bandicoot
• Waluigi
• Klonoa

As a reminder, just because I don't want some of these guys doesn't mean I hate them.

Geno
Crash
Sora
Sakura
Heihachi
Amaterasu

Want: Sora, Sakura, Amaterasu
Don't want: Geno, Crash, Heihachi

Your avatar has Ami in it, so that one's a given. Sakura is way too specific a name to just throw in there, and Sora is pretty highly requested. The rest are pretty popular requests, so given the typical opinion of this thread I figured you wouldn't want them.

Elma
Doom Slayer
Octoling
Nightmare
Scorpion
Neku

Want: Elma, Octoling, Neku
Don't want: Doom Slayer, Nightmare, Scorpion

Octoling is baby according to you, so that's an obvious want. Elma and Neku are from cult RPGs, so they wouldn't be included if you ddin't want them. The rest are complete polar opposites to the other three, being gritty and violent characters as opposed to cute and soft. Not to say that Elma is soft, but you know what I mean.

Want: Sora, New Pokemon, Rex

Since you have a cropped image of Rillaboom showing off his Pokeflute for a pfp, I reckon you want to see him get in. Sora is pretty generally well liked so I guess you'd want him, same with Rex. Miriam comes across as a bit of a red herring to me given that I almost never see anyone say they want her in, same with Dragonborn, and since you're posting in this thread you probably don't like/want Geno.

I’d like to join in to.
Note: the ones I don’t want I'm mearly neutral about. And non of these are on my signature.

1/6

Want: Rex, Miriam, Geno
Don't want: Sora, Dragonborn, new Pokemon

Miriam is from one of my favorite games of 2019 and I'd like to see Geno make it since I grew up playing Super Mario RPG. Rex is an easy guess since he's in my signature and I don't exactly hide my love for Xenoblade here.

I don't want Sora because I heavily dislike Kingdom Hearts (KH2 is kinda fun, though), Dragonborn doesn't appeal to me since I haven't played Skyrim yet (I have a sealed copy that I really should get around to one of these days), and I'm not a fan of Pokemon and don't enjoy too many of the new designs (this avatar is because I lost a bet).

 

[chocolatejr9]

I don't know how much I'll regret joining this thread, but the "six characters" game seems fun, so I'll try it out.

* Tracer
* Bandana Waddle Dee
* Waluigi
* Rex and Pyra
* Master Chief
* Monokuma

Extra points if you can give an explaination for each.

 

[Deleted member]

Want: Waluigi, Steve, Bomberman
Don't want: 2B, Kid Icarus rep, Dante

Ooooohhh, so close.

Wants:
*Waluigi: Funny character, wacky moveset potential, highly requested.
*Kid Icarus rep: Uprising was great, series needs more love, multiple character possibilities( Medusa, Hades, Viridi, Magnus, Phosphora, Souflee ).
*Bomberman: Confession: Haven’t played or watched playthroughs of his games, but a lot of people like him and I want them to be happy, and he looks interesting. Also, his series needs more representation imo( seriously, all his series has is himself as an Assist and Spirit ).

Don’t Wants( Actually Just Neutral ):
*2B: Like Bomberman, I haven’t played her game or watched a playthrough, Unlike Bomberman, I don’t really find her interesting. Maybe that will change when I watch a playthrough.
*Steve: I love Minecraft, and Steve most definitely has moveset potential, but for some reason, I can’t make myself exited for him potentially being a fighter. I think a stage would represent Minecraft better.
*Dante: Simply put, I’m not into series with intense blood and gore.

Edit: Added explanations.

 

[MisterMike]

This sounds fun.
Crash Bandicoot
Chun-Li
Cinderace
Sol Badguy
Travis Touchdown
Master Chief

Want: Crash Bandicoot, Travis Touchdown, Master Chief
Don't want: Chun-Li, Cinderace, Sol Badguy

Chun-Li seems a little odd to me, given we already have like three fighting game characters and I don't really see many clamoring to see her in as a fighter, same with Sol Badguy. Cinderace is usually not as suggested as Rillaboom so I figure that might be a no for you. Crash is generally well liked enough that I could see you maybe also wanting him. Travis is pretty cool so maybe? And Master Chief... I have no idea, so I guess you'd maybe want that?

I think I'm starting to notice a problem with guessing the Smash Fighter wants of a group of relative strangers...

1/6

Want: Rex, Miriam, Geno
Don't want: Sora, Dragonborn, new Pokemon

Miriam is from one of my favorite games of 2019 and I'd like to see Geno make it since I grew up playing Super Mario RPG. Rex is an easy guess since he's in my signature and I don't exactly hide my love for Xenoblade here.

I don't want Sora because I heavily dislike Kingdom Hearts (KH2 is kinda fun, though), Dragonborn doesn't appeal to me since I haven't played Skyrim yet (I have a sealed copy that I really should get around to one of these days), and I'm not a fan of Pokemon and don't enjoy too many of the new designs (this avatar is because I lost a bet).

Ahh, well I guess I really read you wrong, granted I don't recall ever seeing you around. Pretty good selection, honestly. I'd also like to see Miriam get in Smash some day.
