Mine aren't the best and I'm working on my editing skills, but this image editing website has really helped me out
Missed opportunity to flip the image and make it look like it's screaming...Whatever that says.
Doesn't look too difficult: Slap a bunch of images on there, and some text there and bam! Finished image. The hard part comes in having a photo editor...
I'm gonna take that in mind then!
The same can be said of all characters that didn't get added to be fair, priority decides everything in the Smash context. That said, I think it also makes sense within the context of the Ultimate base game lineup. Isaac would have required a proper "new series treatment" that brought along a stage, music, more Spirits, and maybe even an additional Assist Trophy. Only two new franchises were added in base Smash, and Splatoon was too huge to ignore alongside being a popular request (which is an element of Ultimate I think people forget, people wanted the Inklings super badly during the Smash 4 days) and Castlevania got the chance to get in finally after years of also being requested. The only other new stages we got were from Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Odyssey, so that keys us in to just what things were taking priority stage wise (not even Pokemon got a new stage). The remaining unique newcomers all come from more successful and classic franchises as well: Isabelle as the breakout hit from New Leaf and one of Nintendo's biggest characters of the 21st century and Incineroar to bring us a new Pokemon since it's the biggest media franchise in the world basically. Finally we have Ridley and King K. Rool, both of whom were requests that could be added individually without additional content and are from active and beloved series (Metroid Samus Returns was on the way at the time as was the port of Tropical Freeze as extra little bits of recency incentive). There's just not much room for Golden Sun or Isaac in base game. I don't really see how you can drop any of the additions made there.
If anything being from his own series would actually help Isaac in comparison to Geno. Like, Geno is hitching to Mario, but only out of absolute necessity and there's probably a fair case to be made he isn't even the most popularly requested Mario newcomer at this point with Waluigi continuing to gain steam and even Toad becoming a more often thought of pick. Like that doesn't put Isaac in a good position necessarily, but he's also not competing with other equally popular options from the same series with more history and "relevance."
I disagree. Geno is associated with a franchise that's already on the roster, and that franchise just so happens to be Mario — Nintendo's heart and soul. Isaac is from a completely new franchise that's been dormant for several years, and there's no new games in sight. Since he's not a third-party either, I don't see what they stand to gain by adding him aside from pleasing the people who requested him (and that isn't really the most compelling argument since there are plenty of first-party options capable of doing that and a whole lot more).
What you say is true and very valid, but it's predicated on the assumption that Camelot is not right now working on a Golden Sun game for the Switch.
Which is a reasonable assumption to make considering there isn't any evidence to suggest that there is.
Other than a trademark filed for Golden Sun? Well, no. That's all we got to suggest it could happen.
Possibly. It seems odd for them to be like "We changed our minds, we want them in the game now." ARMS seems to be a case of "we always wanted them in the game but it was too late." So even Spirits I'm a bit skeptical of.
Hey this is a really good mock up! Nemesis would be super cool and the spirit list is fitting and the music is goo-I couldn't think of a character that could represent Barry, so just imagine you literally fight him.![]()
I think Resident Evil has more than enough content that it could bring even with the spirit event much like Pokemon, but it isn't a series I really want in the game so I'll just leave it off with this.
To be fair, ARMS has already sold better than any of the three Golden Sun games, and it seems like Nintendo has plans for it in the future.
Awesome, Nemesis in Smash would be so cool.I couldn't think of a character that could represent Barry, so just imagine you literally fight him.![]()

They gonna crash, oh god oh ****.
Goddammit, first FE invades Smash and now it's invading f-Zero.
Looks like the Captain taught Lucina a thing or two
Just wanna say how much I love Beastman's F-Zero Machine, Hyper Speeder AKA the coolest looking machine in the game.
Well...In the case of Assist Trophies, they are more likely because now they're nonzero assuming Spring Man is the fighter.
Maybe only in the Assist department. In the Spirits department, however? Depending on who gets in, this could signal that either Spirits can be promoted or series repped by Spirite are still on the table (at least for the base game).
That’s my point though. The circumstances around Spring Man are not the same for a character like Isaac, for example.
All I've ever said is "if assists are on the table then put Shadow"
Well let's see if this post ages like Milk, or Ages like Wine
But Mamboo.
Pikachu broke that rule back in 64 before the main character Red got in.
Oh man, that'd be cool. I remember seeing that and getting so hype about it. I love Soul Calibur and Assassin's Creed.
Which is why most people go with the angle of popularity for...well all of them actually. I think it has merit for Waluigi since he seems to be the most popular of the Assist Trophies, and still appears in stuff that isn't Smash.
Why would it not? If Spring Man were to become a fighter, it would mean that already being an Assist Trophy is not a death sentence for a character, and they can be considered for this pass. I don't really see how an Assist Trophy also being a character doesn't make this a thing unless they were to explicitly state that this is an exception, which I doubt they'd do even if they weren't going to add a new Assist Trophy character.
Michael please. An intelligent conversation this does not make.
I hope to be able to play SCVI soon!
At least the Devil Jin Moveset in that game was cool. very epic
You mean the ballot where you don't actually know where he placed on it, because Nintendo never released the results?
Seems like the perfect project for AlphaDream. Especially since the director of SMRPG's was on that team.
No extra information is needed. This game has failed.
I think the mimic fighter as a concept could be really cool.
It's technically slightly different, because unlike playing a random character, a mimic character's moveset usually changes every round.
You've never seen Street Fighter 3 then.
