Grant Kirkhope also explicitly shot down Banjo's chances of being in Smash only for him to be the first American composer in the game.
inb4 Katalina is in and Hitagi was right.
Luigi The President
dies on the spot.
I hope they just have Googi as a palette for next Smash honestly/update the game to have additional palettes like Little Mac in Sm4sh.
It looks like a series that deserves love, and it'd undoubtedly bring an interesting looking character with awesome attacks. I like what songs I've listened to as well.
WOW I've never seen anyone want Luke as a Tales of rep Respect. all I mostly hear is Lloyd Yuri or Velvet
I totally get why. Luke was insufferable at first but changed in a heartbreaking way. By far my favorite Tales Protag after Yuri
That feels weird, in my opinion, that people expected Chrom instead of Robin. It seems I was the weird one wanting and expecting Robin to get in, thanks to Awakening success and original moveset.
The subtitles portray her as a starry eyed adventurer, but in game she looks more like a seductress. Normally I like bow users just because of their weapon choice, but her character archetype tends to make me uncomfortable so I think I'll pass (even if I had the game).
It astonishes me that anyone thought a character so iconic that almost every platform fighter (that's an original IP) has a character that's basically just the original smash character would be replaced.
Rob, duck hunt ice climbers ness and lucas are 1st party, not 3rd party so the rule of having significant console games doesn't apply to them. And The Angry birds only having 2 console games is still not enough.If we were to assume that all characters were compliant with these rules then we know that the minimum requirement for being in Smash is having exactly...
Zero console games!
Or if you think that's cheating then just one.
if yeah never got to the point where he isn't being an ass then, of course, people wouldn't want him but he's a good kid
Granblue looks pretty cool. I woulnd't be opposed to Kat being in Smash. ALSO, Kat from Gravity Rush 2 would be an awesome choice
Octoling with more Splatoon 2 tracks from Octo-Expansion DLC.
The internet would break.
Well one idea is Hilda as an Echo of Zelda bringing her theme and the variants of it as her true intentions are revealed.
If Mickey gets in then at that point they have no excuse for not adding Goku.
"King" Mickey though. Not the actual Mickey. So still a video game character.
There's more than the two I just mentioned (I found one more before giving up), but honestly I don't think it's worth trying to explain why the Angry Birds (a character I don't want or care about) could fit in under your arbitrary rules. My point was that your rules are arbitrary and in some cases meaningless. Anything can happen at this point. I mean, we were discussing the possibility of a Warcraft character appearing without immediately dismissing the idea not too long ago. That's just crazy to me.
I didn't move on from Ridley, I'm not moving on from my preferred AT promotion. You don't get what you want by being silent. I'd prefer a miracle over waiting six years for the character I want in a Smash game that can, in no way, live up to Ultimate. I'm sure many others are in the same boat.
The problem is you're treating their want of something as an expectation. They are making it heard they want something to change, not that they are expecting it to change. This has always been a problem in this community as pretty much everyone sees "I want" as "I expect". Stop trying to put words in the fans mouths. I want Ashley to be promoted. I don't expect it, but that sure as **** isn't going to stop me from voicing my support for a same game promotion when it didn't stop me from voicing my support for Ridley in the previous Smash games.
Imagine the next: we're in november and then, casually and like happened with SNK, the page of Smash DLC at the Nintendo website features the copyright of Disney.
Goku, Scourge, and Hatsune Miku aren't video game characters so they really aren't very good ideas for Assist Trophy replacements.
Kai somehow thinks the inconveniences Sakurai doesn't want to deal with regarding the licensing of non-video game characters somehow magically go away when the characters are ATs.
While I do somewhat agree that the main protagonist of a game series has a very good chance of getting into Smash. I hate rule five because it implies that obscure 3rd party characters like Dr. Yuichiro Tomari from Ordyne or Mao Mao from Aero Fighters are worthless characters only because they're not well known and it would be a silly idea to permenentally deconfirm them from Smash Ultimate because they're not 'iconic'.

Can’t say I disagree with you when it comes to Mortal Kombat. Also if I were to pick an ArcSys rep I’d probably go with Ragna. The protagonist of BlazBlue and it seems ArcSys are pushing that a lot more recently even without the most recent game. Terry proves that when picking reps for a company who are not being picked for their first rep due to a certain character owned by them being overwhelmingly popular they usually go with the mascot. But as ArcSys honestly don’t have an established mascot they’d probably base it off of what one is being pushed more
While I don’t think unpopularity in Japan can necessarily stop a character from getting in as long the West is loudly vocal for them (
) but I think Mortal Kombat and Spyro are the only franchises outright hurt by this.
Maybe I'm wrong because I know little about GG and BlazBlue but I think it would depend on which character Sakurai wants. I mean, if he approaches ArcSys I seriously doubt they would try to convince Sakurai for another character if he wanted to pick Sol.
So this is actually kind of interesting to me. Back two pages ago, why was it agreed that the Belmonts made sense over Alucard, but when Resident Evil is discussed, a lot of people think Leon makes the most sense over Chris or Jill? It seems like a very similar scenario to me.
Whichever option is more likely to give me Edelgard. :V
The conversation has mostly moved on from this, but this scenario is absolutely not illegal or damning. In fact, it's a fairly common practice. It's called a proof of concept. You can work on stuff before obtaining the rights and show off an unfinished build to try to convince the rights holders and, so long as you get permission before it's shipped, there's nothing legally wrong with that. The risk only comes from the possibility of them saying no, meaning you've wasted all that time and all those resources.
A big part of that is Castlevania starting on the NES with Simon. Castlevania III is arguably the better game which stars Trevor Belmont but Sakurai went with Richter instead, probably because his game is a fan favourite and the connection to SOTN.
I dunno. I suppose that depends if he wanted to pick sol. It also depends on whether Nintendo is still picking the dlc. If they are it’s almost certainly going to be Ragna because he is in a similar boat to terry minus being close to an official mascot. If it’s sakurai it may be personal preference or fan votes which I can’t imagine there would be that many of for any ArcSys character
idk, the bulk of that discussion seemed to be was that they were the OG main characters and represent Castlevania and didn't have anything to do with console history nor acclaim
I don't think it's really similar situations.
In that case you could argue for Chris since RE seems to be Redfields vs. Wesker/Umbrella. RE1 has Chris, 2 has Claire, 3 goes back to Jill, Code Veronica has Chris and Claire, 4 is the one with Leon, 5 goes back to Chris, 6 has Chris and Leon, and 7 also has Chris I think.
I think personally, Simon being the first protagonist of the series (as well as being the most requested Castlevania hero) had a lot to do with why he was chosen.
