What do you guys think of the chances of each companies's chances of getting a fighter? Iirc, the contestants (when excluding indie companies) are:
- Nintendo
- Capcom
- Bandai-Namco
- Sega
- Blizzard
- Bethesda
- ArcSystem Works
- Level 5
- Ubisoft
- Koei Techmo
- Disney
- Microsoft
- Sony
Child companies's IPs are also up for consideration via their parent company...Hopefully I didn't list any child companies given that convention. Let me know if I forgot a reasonable contender that is not a child of any of these companies.
EDIT: Forgot Microsoft and Sony. lol
Nintendo: Already got a Fighter, so 100%. For another one, Good chance
Capcom: Monster Hunter costumes have to come back. Dante probably will be represented in some way as well. whether as Fighters remains to be seen
Namco: Maybe, Maybe not. Lloyd has to come back, otherwise who Knows
Sega: Maybe, Maybe Not. Arle's Absence is weird though, and perhaps other characters
Konami (I'll add it here): Maybe, Maybe not. The Goemon costume being added could have been because Simon and Richter were base game newcomers. if we get another New costume though (and same goes for any other represented company) Chances massively drop
Bilzzard: Probably not. Seem to be no Overwatch confirmed
Bethasda: Very surprised if they got in. Vault boy Costume might soft deconfirm
Arc System Works: Probably not. Could see it happening, but I'm not counting on it. Sol and Ragna being represented seems likley, but whether as fighters is the question
Level-5: Will Definitely get content in Some Form, but whether it's a fighter remains to be seen.
Ubisoft: Still surprised if character got in, due to Mii Costumes
Koei-Tecmo: Ryu has to show up at some point, whether as a Fighter remains to be seen.
Disney: No
Microsoft: Banjo having no Costumes come with him either is a Good sign of more Microsoft content, or a Bad sign if Nintendo wasn't willing to even get Mii's of RARE characters, never mind bigger Microsoft properties like Steve? and Chief
Sony: They did go to that Smash Tournament thing in the Spa, but probably no fighter, and perhaps nothing at all as well.
I don't understand how people fine CacoMallow plausible. If it were real, that means that the dev team had almost 7 entire waves of Mii Costumes done before Terry's release at the very least. Even if you assume they could make them that fast, why on Earth would they quick burn sets of costumes that they wont need for an entire year or more?
The only thing I could think of is that if there's a Separate team for Mii Costumes (which seems plausible), they might have been working real hard on all the waves regardless of Character progress and such
even thing that poses other problems. Mii costumes I believe take longer than some might expect, especially new ones. I Believe Sans took like 6 Months. Obviously Sans is a Full Model and Mallow and Cacodemon are just hats, but i do think there still need to be time to model and such, along with the other Mii costumes, I can't see them already being done Mallow and Cacodemon, when there are other costumes that is more viable to work on at the time, if those costumes come with Specific character that's set to release soon
FP2 was finalized in November, which is the month Cacomallow came out. I assume Release order was also being decided as well. I can't see them being done with the Costumes in Cacomallow in FP2 if Doomguy and Geno are meant to be in. even then, I would think they would have Cacodemon release with Vault boy Mii costume. It's just weird all around, and I don't think it's real
----------------------------------------------
On the Topic of Legacy XP, I just think that takedown was weird because they took it down in a period where it wasn't at it's peak. Legacy XP was at it's peak in May of 2018, which is right before Ultimate got revealed at E3, with Ridley, and Ridley was in that mod. Plus when Legaxy XP got taken down, i Believe 2 months later Project + Got alot of hype and that mod was not taken down,
I guess also Papagenos said someone came to him with info about evidence for Geno and Waluigi, and other characters that Papagenos says to be unlikely. It's heavily speculated it had to do with Legacy XP being tookdown, and the other characters being Metal Sonic and Shadow
As someone who's most Wanted i Shadow, while I would love to use Legacy XP as evidence for him, I'm not sure. I mean, same with Waluigi, there are Ultimate Mods of those Two (though they are just Skins), but they aren't taken down. Waluigi is also in brawl minus, though would say that mod is smaller. I personally thought if that mod was for one of the characters, it would be Geno, since at this point Geno hasn't had a Real 3D Model, so if Geno gets in as Premium Costume or Playable character, it would be a first. yes
