Same here though I don't expect an double drop.
I don't know about shadowdrops, but I wouldn't be surprised if E3 has another double reveal.
Yeah we will probably get out first reveal at E3 and have it drip fed to us from there. Needs to last a long time and even if it doesn’t end exactly in December they would still prefer to maintain it
It could be until 2021 but just an reminder December 31st, 2021 is just an placeholder.
Some interesting numbers here.
Only one I can imagine getting a character from that batch is Pokemon.
It would be nice if we weren't just limited to indie characters.
I’m not really sure if this can be used as valid evidence for either direction because all this really shows is that spirit names can be changed. It doesn’t support anything further than that really, as it seems to have been done only to sort out confusion relating to the new Three Houses spirits. Based on what information we currently have relating to the timing of the Three Houses spirits and the continuation of spirit boards with each character, I’m inclined to believe that spirits do deconfirm, but again we have no concrete evidence in any direction.
Maybe for post spirits via DLC, events and with DLC characters arrival. I still think that the base spirits might still have a shot.
That is the first time I see an argument that makes sense against an AT promotion. However, let me weaken it a bit. Toward the general public, it makes sense to not promote an AT, but the players that will stick to Smash and those who buy the DLC further the line, the customers, are not the general public, they are the most fervent players. And those may not have that perception issue.
Every person who did and reported their opinion on the Golden Sun reddit had rave reviews. If you are into JRPG, you will like it.
May I ask why? I don’t understand why some spirits would have priority when others wouldn’t.
The argument is that Spirits in the base game have a shot as V2 wasn't planned during development
9 months, actually. Is it Sakurai's baby?
eh, maybe half that number tbh. or even 1 more after that for a total of 101
If the character is revealed and released that late, it'll likely be because they started work on FP6 late due to the second season not being greenlit in time for them to just continue work on characters at the same steady pace that they've done throughout the first Fighters Pass, so for all we know the character might not be that far in development. I do find that a bit unlikely considering we've known about the second Fighters Pass since September though, and you can bet ya that it had been greenlit some time before that, but if we force on the pessimist glasses, then it's a possible explanation.
Just me personally, but I'm not gonna force on the pessimist glasses if they don't make sense to me. If I'm wrong, whoopdee-doo.
If we don't get anything in the next Nintendo Direct, I would actually expect us to get nothing until E3. People assumed Fighter #2 would be revealed in Joker's trailer, but instead they held off Hero and Banjo until E3.
We don't really know what sort of behind-the-scenes stuff were involved in that sort of cameo. It could have been tied into Sonic and Eggman being included in the movie; my guess is that something similar happened with Bowser being in the movie, since the Wreck-It Ralph tie-in games only came out on Nintendo consoles.I always keep seeing people say that Disney would be super stingy about letting any character they own into Smash, but I don't necessarily think that's true. I mean, they seemed to have no problem putting Wreck-It-Ralph in Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed. They clearly aren't too against characters they own getting into crossovers.
This doesn't mean that I think Sora is likely for a DLC fighter or anything; I just don't think that Disney is the impenetrable roadblock preventing him from getting it that people seem to think they are. I'd still personally prefer Geno as the Square Enix rep for the second DLC wave, but Sora would be awesome as well.
Which is a realistic estimate, judging by when the placeholder Ike data that eventually got turned into Corrin was added to 4.
That's true, we really don't know what the circumstances were for that. If nothing else though, it shows that Disney is willing to play ball with crossovers if the right negotiations are made.
The numbers are from their recent earnings release and data release. Here it is, with additional docs here.
It'd likely be really tricky - Mickey and Donald are mentioned in Brawl's Chronicles menu (since Nintendo produced a couple G&W games with them - Nintendo owns those games fully); but it's likely much more difficult when they're being depicted. Whether as Spirits, cameos or NPCs (like assists to Sora's Final Smash). Still, I'd hesitate to call it outright impossible when Tsum Tsum Festival exists. [Kinda grasping at straws, I know.]
That is not what the polls made before the launch of the game are saying.
And yet, every players of the serie are saying that wouldn't be an issue. I assure you that Sora does not need Disney content to exist.
There is one good reason : a dual reveal of the first character and a tied game. If the game has to be shown at E3 instead of a direct for some reason, it can happen.
How could it be a problem? I mean, how could their absence be a problem?
They don't need to use them.
now that you mentioned it
The question is likely less "Would Disney allow" and more "Would Sakurai even want" given that those aren't video game characters.
King Boo hype
Yeah. It would lead to a massive six month dead period that could cause players to drop the game entirely, thus lowering the sales of Fighter Pass 2.
out of curiosity... how much did the Octo Expansion DLC for Splatoon 2 sell...?
It's even longer than that really. Byleth was done by the time we saw him so maybe as long as 7 or 8 months. Hard for me to see them just sitting on that character forever
